Nice. Coming from the theoretical side of things, I first learnt of Meshuggah via the paper Structural Density and Clarity, Technical Death Metal, and Anomalous’s “Ohmnivalent” in Music Theory Online MTO 28.1: Hannan, Structural Density and Clarity ... while searching for some analysis of Johann Sebastian Bach. Confirms that melodic ornaments in Baroque and metal are quite close structurally.

Thank you!! That paper has been in my reading list for a while lol. And agree I can feel the parallels between prog, baroque and computer music!
