We are beside ourselves with anticipation for the new MESHUGGAH album which is due for release later this year. The bands return to Ireland has sparked a level of excitement in the Irish metal scene that we have not seen in many years. Tickets for MESHUGGAH in Dublin’s Vicar Street on January 18th 2017 are on sale now via Ticketmaster and Sound Cellar. Please check DME Promotions for updates.

Tomas Haake comments, “Basically, the whole idea of why we chose the title is it kinda connects with the lyrical content of the album. Which is to a fair degree about current events and what you see is going on as far as terrorism today, extremist views on ideals, and religious dogma and the violent implications that you get from being asleep so to speak and not acting/reacting to what is going on in the proper way”
Check out the video below:
The album was produced by the band and was engineered by Tue Madsen of Puk Studios in Kaerby, Denmark. For the cover, the band once again enlisted Keerych Luminokaya who created the artwork for Koloss and The Ophidian Trek as well as the new images for each of the 7 albums and 3 EP’s featured in the 25 Years of Musical Deviance box set.
