    Keep doing Vildhjarta and all the buster bands, they are really pushing the whole scene forward

    You're totally right that almost identical pieces of this showed up in other works - there's leitmotifs for characters/places across both albums, and Masstaden Nationalsang (roughly Masstaden's National Anthem) is almost a medley of some of the big moments from the first album, including parts of Dagger given a new context and tweaks to fit the story.

    Discovered this channel, Judson, back in February/March when I was homeless - north, cold, spending every possible hour inside a library. Greatest measures ever.
    I'm back - job, apartment/home, and beyond (finally reached that state where anything can happen but I just want everyone to be happy with life) - you are both part of that journey

    Vildhjarta is my most favourite music band atm. I got a 7 string guitar because of them just so I can learn at least one of their songs...
    It probably will be unseen, but there is another Finnish music band I would like to share is: Indistinct
    album: Reign of Silence
    track: Cascade
    I think it would be a good introduction. Please give them some love too ❤
    Thanks for the video!

    I was surprised to come up empty with a search for August Burns Red on the channel. They even had an incredible piano cover commissioned of their song Boys of Fall. They are consistent and solid; Grammy nominated, and the sophistication in some of their pieces is delightful to listen to repeatedly to pick apart all the layers. Please consider going back in time to some of their masterpieces!

  • @Tr0llmannen
    @Tr0llmannen 19 дней назад +2

    Judson mentions that he enjoys every second of the song because it always hits you with something new. To me, the underlying atmosphere of despair adds another essential ingredient of what Vildhjarta makes so great for me.
    Maybe react to "Den Helige Anden" by Vildhjarta next?

  • @MrADN89
    @MrADN89 19 дней назад +6

    Is Judson trying to learn Måsstadens nationalsång? Because thats all basically references to this same first album. Little love letter for the fans. Just let the man listen to Vildjharta, i feel bad holding him back just so we can enjoy his reactions.❤

    • @steezydan8543
      @steezydan8543 19 дней назад +4

      They should really just do a whole album review, hell, do a back to back Masstaden + Under Vatten 3 hour live-stream, make it an event!

    The Ocean (Collective) are another band that have released instrumental versions of their albums, these might be worth checking out at some time. I also prefer the orchestral version of the new Ihsahn album as well plus the Swedish Version of Opeth’s In Cauda Venenum and a number of albums that are not sung in English (my native and ashamedly only language) such as those from Kauan and Hamferd.

    • @educostanzo

    There is a instrumental version of their song "Don't Fail Me Now (Lady Luck) " and it's a banger. He will love it ! ( just search for "Don't Fail Me Now (Lady Luck) instrumental" )

    So Judson raised several good points about the way Vildhjarta write their music, but there's one I really need to talk about; it's NOT random.
    At first glance it seems random, until you step beck and start seeing the bigger picture. It is a cyclical story told non-linearly in which all events can be understood to be happening simultaneously. And you don't need to go to the lyrics for that interpretation, it's in the music.
    Before the start of the song Toxin from Under Vatten, there is the twinkly melody based on the intro of the song Dagger. The intro of the song Dagger itself is used to kick off Nationalsang Under Vatten, and then in the middle of the song the melody from Toxin is played, associating the two in your mind.
    But it's only when you listen to Vagabond that you get the final, COMPLETE context. The melody in Toxin, based off the intro from Dagger, contextualized in Nationalsang Under Vatten, is then shown to have BEGUN in Vagabond.
    The story I tell myself when I listen to that moment is our protagonist was walking through the forest and came across a dead body, and in that moment everything became clear.

    Meshuggah Soul Burn might be a good one to try. It was the easiest one for me to get into when I struggled with Meshuggah's vocals at first (I'm all in now) and it's still one of my favourites, it's so progressive. Also love I am Colossus, in a different, more doomy vibe

    their last two EP's had the dude from this band help writing!!
    They had flipped from metalcore to straight up the heaviest deathcore/Thall sound imaginable during the pandemic, I'd highly recommend just from a sonic/engineering standpoint especially willow.
