Hey, those aren't real trees.

The comments section makes it look like Vildhjarta is the most controversial band in history

People complain about the open string "abuse" yet they don't realize that its necessarily necessary for them to use more in some of the passages. Some of you may detest the whole 0's thing, but a lot of you people aren't listening to the track as a whole. You're fixated on the individual instruments. Can you not hear the carefully composed ambience in the background? Which was, by the way, done with a guitar. Its like complaining that a cello is constantly using one note to beef up the low end in a piece, while the violins are clearly doing something else to further the track as a whole. Frankly, these guys are one of the rare and few bands who take to making truly melodic metal. They give me many feels.

Last time something dropped this hard, Japan surrendered

20 minutes into Netflix and thall

I don't listen a ton of djent, so can someone explain why people are saying that these guys are Meshuggah ripoffs? I mean sure, they djent a shitload but their song structures, vocals, riffs etc etc are completely different. It's like saying that Joe Satriani is ripping off Steve Vai because they play shred and play in similar styles.

is it legal to have 6 husbands?


i take that back, was still young and foolish when i commented this

From an interview with members of the band when asked about the use of two vocalists:

"For the aggressiveness of it, it's like, one can rest and breathe while the other one is going nuts, and then the other one can take over, that's what I wanted to achieve, it's like, I didn't want to give the listener a lot of breathing room, I just want it to be full on, all the time."

As a beginner guitarist I love how easy it is to play along with these guys' easy chords and simple rhythms

vocalist with weird hair has weird hair

I went to Starbucks last saturday. The lady asked me wich size of Capuccino I wanted. I said: "I WANT THE THALL".

*THE THALLBERRIES TASTE LIKE THALLBERRIES!*

w0w.
s0 th0ll
m0ny dj0nt.
s0 0pen str0ng.

If you like Vildhjarta, listen to Humanity's Last Breath!

Djentthallman, its really pleausre to listen to you.

seems even having a Swedish passport can fetch you some raw talent....

Signal chain: 10 string -> Marianas trench -> THALL tools pro

This never gets old.

the "djent scene" needs more atmospheric bands with chaotic riffs like vildhjarta

I see they went for a school play aesthetic with the carboard cutout trees. Admirable.

I've listened to this song probably 50 times in the last 3 days and I still cannot pick out a single riff that repeats.  Sure, there are variations on a theme but it's essentially one riff.  The memory that must take is incredible.  And the end riff might be one of the heaviest ever written. : )

They have the most evil sound. THALL

I love how they have "Thall" written on the guitars... :)

Have you ever thalled so hard, that you thalled across the entire front yard?

this makes my manhood become *THALLER AND THALLER*

I was sweeping the comments and I saw a view that soon out and in MY opinion were way off base... It is true that Meshuggah helped develop the sound which merged the mathematical prowess of its technical instrumentation to its off beat and interesting structure of unpredictable time signatures usually heard in prog to form more or less the genre, Djent... Now if you would listen to an early King Diamond record I can personally hear where Meshuggah may have derived their influence. Same story here. These guys in my opinion, may have been inspired but in no formal do these musicians bluntly ripped the musical endeavors of the big Mesh... I will come clean here and admit that this is the first time in a long time I was so genuinely stoked on a band that I couldn't wait to share it with them. Shoooot, I texted my buddy J at 3 am telling him to.wake up and listen to the heaviest and most comically arranged music he has ever heard. I think these lads, have an amazing ability and a gift for making a marketable record that sounds so.authenticallly themselves. From the sweeping and ethereal interludes and intros to the disjointed heavy low end that is.immediatle accented by the schizophrenic laughter and yells of the high notes. They do.somethings with their guitars that makes me just plain ad happy. I swear during certain phrases on their studio record the high notes sound like a strangle and echoed Gregorian chant or yeah.... Anyway, if you want solid metal "oh shit... here it.comes, breakdowns, they got them in Spades. There tuning is low thick and brutal. It's as if they use industrial steal cable for.stings as you can here the tension as if they were Bridge Cables. I have never written a review because. .. well... I don't consider myself a write or a critic. But I was so stoked to have stumbled and purchased (with real money) on their records, I wanted to thoroughly give them my reapects. If you have made it here right on, thank you for your sacred free time.

I just love that guitar tone.

It's some great musicianship going on right here. Based on classical music AND Meshuggah as main influences. If someone thinks this band is not badass, one must have missed the whole concept behind the soundwaves. Rhytmical and melodical masterpiece, from the perspective of texture and structure, cubism & minimalism. Modern age's Debussy.

Wow! I really love macklemore's new stuff!!

Nothing else sounds heavy after listening to this

For those of you who don't know, "Thall" comes from the the mispronounced name Thrall from World of Warcraft that a few of the members of the band found funny and decided to use.

not enough th0ll in comments

TH0LL

my uterus is jumping ♥ and I'm a guy

not sure if djent or deathcore

This video reminds me of the devil wears prada- hey John what's your name again video. The atmosphere of it

i think... .. you need more vocalists

I laugh when I look at all the hate in the comments. It's OBVIOUS they're trolling, so I won't give them the time of day. 

*T H A L L*

turn it to 1.25 speed and it goes from djent to thrash.

1:16's groove gets me errytime

so thall
such riff
wow

Came here expecting exceptional musical discourse. Was not disappointed.

It's true.. Swedish people are amazing at metal.. xD

I love this band. These guys are amazing.

the superior drummer is strong on this one (audio engineers will get it)

Thall. That is all.

Eh, not impressed. The vocals are boring, the guitars aren't interesting, and the blond kid is far too pretty for metal. Put a beard on that kid or a scar on his face or something. Either way, the music is boring, they're clearly just capitalizing on a popular sound, not furthering it or being creative and making their own.

remember when everyone went ape shit over this song

 i still do

3:06 it's too late to cut you're hair

This band's music gives me a reason to live. thall \m/ Please come back to Toronto Canada!

I just noticed that these guys went from being an instrumental band, to having 2 vocalists lol

Thall

I literally just come to watch the bridge at 1:50 amirite?

What does Thall mean?

brutal vocals by a.j. styles :) i keed. BrUtAl

Dr Disrespect brought me here<3 thank you!<3

0:06 It sounds like the best thing ever happened to me

2:28 "I Have Facebook"

Nice choreography.

Help , I've thallen and I cant get up

Sounds like Emmure with the guitar track. lol

THOU
THALL
NOT
PASS!!!

Sure these guys experiment more than Meshuggah as far as i can see.
But their playing and more importantly their guitar tone and distortion use is just not as good.

If you think cranking up all the 20hz and 40000hz signals to MAX and letting it rip is good mixing then im afraid you dont know shit about the audio tech and how he keeps this bands sound from falling apart.

DAT THALL.

Lol why are people comparing these guys to Meshuggah? Vildhjarta is way better.

If you don't shout "I LEFT YOU WITH NOTHING ELSE" along with them, you clearly have no soul.

Metal by numbers. Satan fart vocals, detuned gutars, farty distorto bass and fast drums. No feeling or orginality.

Nigel Thallberry approved.

What did these guys eat for breakfast?

Pretty average/simple music for a 6 piece

if you look real close, the trees are fake

You must be this thall to listen to this song

dark forest + hallucinations + Dagger = best night ever

Great song and song !!!! like your band dudes :!:!:!:!

Is it just me cause I'm almost 40 or does this really such

Th00 000 00 000 00 000ll

I need to grow my hair out.

DOC brings me here!

Doctor Disrespect approved

Αυτοί οι MCs κάνουν σαν σκύλες τσακι

This is what black metal bands think they sound like.

Allright Chaps...FIX BAYONETS !

Djent = dubstep of metal music.

Sounds like Whitechapel and Meshuggah had a baby.

Djent. Djent. Dadjent

Riff at 1:16 is still one of the most awesome riffs I've ever heard.

Finally a band that skips the boy band act, almost as good as the originals (Meshuggah). It's like it's little brother! =) Good stuff!

THE DOC SENT ME HERE. CommCommCommCommCommComm

what does "thall" mean?

So sick, the lows sound so much like Job For A Cowboy. 

thall

the thall thing is going to get spoiled rotten and annoyingly cheesy so so quickly

This is how Warcraft nerds with electric guitar sounds

so many awesome instrumental bands broken by unneccessary vocals.

This music so creepy n spooky..lol but i like this song

Any austrian guys around? Need some people for euroblast to see Vildhjarta live ;)

Every time at "These words are really empty" I hear "These chords are really heavy."

THAT HAIRCUT DOE....almost kills it for me

Alec brought me here and I'm a little bit scared

the bass drum in this song...
