 In polymeters typically used by Meshuggah, the guitars might play in odd meters such as 5/16 or 17/16, while drums play in 4/4.One particular example of Haake's use of polymeter is 4/4 against 23/16 bimeter, in which he keeps the hi-hat and ride cymbal in 4/4 time but uses the snare and double bass drums in 23/16 time.On "Rational Gaze" (from "Nothing"), Haake plays simple 4/4 time, hitting the snare on each third beat, for 16 bars.
