its the swedish metal band MESHUGGAH have long been recognized as being at the forefront of the metal genre. Underground fans have adored MESHUGGAH for nearly 15yrs. However, due to MESHUGGAH's recent high profile with Tool and Ozzfest, MESHUGGAH are quickly rising somewhat to commercial success. Many individuals now recognize MESHUGGAH's technical precision, experimentation, powerful grooves and individual musicianship for its genius. MESHUGGAH are now not just adored by underground fans, but fans of the mainstream as well as fellow musicians.
MESHUGGAH is
Jens Kidman: vocals
Fredrik Thordendal: lead guitar
Marten Hagstrom: rhythm guitar
Gutaf Hielm: bass
Tomas Haake: drums

I domnt hnow well, but:Meshuggah was formed in 1987 in Umeå, Sweden. I do not know anything about the personnel of that time, but guitarist Fredrik Thordendal, bassist Peter Nordin and vocalist Jens Kidman all played on their debut EP of 1989. At that time, Jens Kidman played the guitar as well. Umeå has a healthy scene, and a lot of people are involved in rock music. According to Jens Kidman there are a lot of good bands from Umeå, "probably because there is not a lot to do". The fact that there is a university in Umeå might also strengthen the rock scene. A lot of people play in bands, but few of these are known outside the town. The majority of the musicians wanting to get anywhere with their music leave town. Many of the session musicians in Stockholm are from Umeå, according to Mårten Hagström...... for me are good.....but I dony sure.sorry
