Sunday, 30 November, 2025
Meshuggah's Mårten Hagström (composer/guitarist/lyricist/conceptualist) takes a rare few hours to hang out and open up about some rather detailed, less than typical topics - especially when it comes to rhythm, composition, and conceptualism exhibited in the music of the mighty Meshuggah. And yes, we also geek on Rush, Sci-Fi, and Clive Barker.
