The color shift in the video perfectly matched soundscape created by the keyboard

Agree. Rush is just the progenitor to a lot of good music.

orrrrr they could just change the fucking lyrics. I hate overpopulation of Instrumentals.That's what Animals As Leaders and Intervals (In Time Ep and The Space Between at least) are for.

it seems like anything these days that doesnt follow a 4/4 beat is labeled djent...i would call it progression in musicianship not djent

Favourite album from 2012. Hope we get another video on top of this and Dreaming Schematics. Loving it! Not just instrumentally awesome, but lyrically too.

Because this style of music didn't exist until Meshuggah put out Nothing. Does it sound like Meshuggah? Not really, but you can hear the influence.

Good point but rush was and still is a band that influences alot of people. What about Genesis and Emmerson, Lake And Palmer, they had a huge part in old english prog rock. Rush did big things for prog rock I mean 2112 and Hemispheres are ya kid din me classic albums.

Well its not like I called you inbred or insulted your mother. I did come on a little strong but please explain your reasoning, that Contortionist is a rip-off band?

What are you guys talking about? This doesn't sound like Meshuggah, God forbid they use 8 strings, then all of a sudden they sound like Mesuggah, fuck off.

Technically every Prog band copy's band's like rush, yes, dream theatre. Rush took elements of yes and mixed them with hard rock DT mixed with rush and made prog metal huge and without Dream there would be no Meshuggah who originated Djent. Bands like Periphery and The contortionist take inluence from meshuggah. I get more of a Between The Buried And Me vibe from The Contortionist, but theat's just me.
