The Violent Artwork of Reason. 

After the leak showing a small page ad for the brand new Meshuggah album, known now as The Violent Sleep Of Reason Meshuggah have now unveiled the artwork for the brand new album which is typically as Meshuggah-y as you would expect. 

No doubt there’s a snake somewhere in there, there’s lots of the usual multi layering elements that the band are known for. Not only this however but it has also transpired that a Preorder from Nuclear Blast will also feature a mask from the album’s cover. If not somewhat useless is still pretty damn cool it has to be said! 

The album’s track listing has also been released featuring a total of ten songs, no word on what any of it sounds like as of yet but I’m sure that the earth cracking day when the band announce a new single will arrive and everyone will lose their multi dimensional, polyrhythmic minds. 

The Violent Sleep Of Reason : 

01 – “Clockworks”

02 – “Born In Dissonance”

03 – “MonstroCity”

04 – “By The Ton”

05 – “Violent Sleep Of Reason”

06 – “Ivory Tower”

07 – “Stifled”

08 – “Nostrum”

09 – “Our Rage Won’t Die”

10 – “Into Decay”

Though none of this is a formal announcement I would imagine that we would be seeing one in the coming weeks in the lead up to its October 7th release via Nuclear Blast.
