It actually makes some kind of sense beyond just the potential novelty. Meshuggah are all about repetitive rhythms, so if there's one non-****ty genre that could work with hip hop, then I guess it's djent. I'll check out both of these bands' albums, but I'm still not anticipating brilliance. The second video is actually better than a lot of djent that I've heard though. It helps that the vocalists for both of these bands are actually not just stereotypically bad white boy rappers.
