Meshuggah previously released a live performance video for the track ‘Demiurge’, which can be seen below. Combining extreme camera angles with adrenaline-inducing performance footage from the band’s sold-out show at Terminal 5 in New York City this past May, ‘Demiurge’ was filmed and directed by Anthony Dubois.
The song is off the band’s latest album, Koloss, released in late March and selling 41,400 copies in the US to date according to Nielsen SoundScan. Koloss debuted at #17 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart in April, #24 on the Canadian Top 200 chart, #31 in the World Sales chart, and #48 on the German Media Control chart.
