wow, cool. it's like a musical equivalent of semantic saturation. they zoom in on a phrase and repeat it with such odd signatures that you lose all frame of reference, but then they move onto the next part and it makes sense in the context of a greater picture / chord progression. thanks for the rec!

Nice description! Yeah, the cuts in that song are really fresh and interesting. At one point in the second half they're jamming out pretty hard and then suddenly everyone starts screaming for a few seconds, Mats pulls up his shirt and laughs, and then the guitar guys goes into an awesome solo. I always laugh at it.

The rhythm changes are just awesome too. When I first listened to it they were pretty disorienting but after a few listens I could tap my feet to it and it's so satisfying.

Here's another polyrhythmic song that's confusing at first but then really satisfying. It's by Avishai Cohen Trio, I couldn't find the original but this cover is pretty good.
