Fredrik Thordendal (born February 11, 1970) is the lead guitarist and a founding member of the Swedish experimental metal band Meshuggah.
Under the name Fredrik Thordendal’s Special Defects, Thordendal released a solo album in 1997 titled Sol Niger Within with Ultimate Audio Entertainment. The album was remixed and re-released by Ultimate Audio Entertainment and Relapse Records in 1999 under the title Sol Niger Within version 3.33. The re-release contains two bonus tracks but omits several parts of the original version. Thordendal also featured on several tracks for Ågren’s Mats/Morgan Band.
As a guitarist, Thordendal draws attention with his clean, jazz-influenced lead-playing and complex rhythm-playing, augmented by his use of low-tuned eight-string guitars. Most notable is the similarity between his solos and those of renowned jazz guitarist Allan Holdsworth. He also contributes to the songwriting for Meshuggah, as well as providing backing vocals in live performances.
Thordendal is also a producer of some note, having produced all of Meshuggah’s recent material and also releases for various other bands, Switzerland’s Fragment among them.
Thordendal has featured in numerous side-projects, such as XXX Atomic Toejam with Petter Marklund. The project released a 7 » two-track single « Celebration » under the name Sepülchre Inc., then took the moniker XXX Atomic Toejam and issued an MCD entitled « A Gathering Of The Tribes For The First / Last Human Be-In » on Cold Meat Industry and also featured a track on the « Karmanik Collection » compilation.

xVictimOfADownx a écrit :
yeah :/, but i disagree the good ones don't rip meshugga off they just took elements of meshuggah, i know what you mean though and as a trend it's getting really old but like every trend there are always good bands, you also have to admit that there are a lot more progressive deathcore bands than there were even 3 years ago, bands in 'sumeriancore' have truly made it impossible for a lot of core bands to get popular now because the popular bands in once a bland genre are maturing as musicians (there are still bad bands though in deathcore)

"also does anybody know anything similar to this besides Meshuggah? because this album is seriously one of the best albums ever created imo, i can't get enough of it" I wish I knew something similar, the closest thing are those boring core influenced "djent" bands which come nothing even close to the originality of the Meshuggah guys.

I remember the big shock i had when i first hear this masterpiece . It's one of those cd's that leaving you with endless amounts of emotions . It's combining a challenging wisdom from one of the biggest guitar players of all time - Fredric Thordendal , with the virtuosity of Morgan Agren , with psychic vocals and atmosphere . This work of ark will be remembered for ages . this cd change my whole life , and i have great thanks to Fredrik . So don't waste your time - if you like jazz , metal , fusion and suphisticated chaotic music - you MUST listen to it . [2]
