There can never be a track with a composition like this, i often ask folks when i show them music like this ""what emotions/thoughts do you feel when you hear this ? "" and if their eye movements and facial expressions change pondering the question i just asked them, then you know you got a damn good composition on your hands !
I love vildhjarta and have since their last album came out... I think this is their best song so far but I havent heard the rest of the EP. Still, this is amazing.
That sucks! I have a good 40 or so hours in it and I thought it was fantastic. Totally tension building stuff when you play alone. Sorry you didn't have a good time with the game.
This is a complete progression, never doubt Vildhjarta's musical growth. This is brilliant. Just enough to make me want more without building expectations for the remaining tracks, well played.
Just awesome. It's not often that I'm actually surprised by this particular brand of metal anymore, but Vildhjarta is one of the few bands (along with Meshuggah) that still manages to do so. Keep it up guys!
As far as transitions go, perhaps keeping it all acoustic or distorted ran together & giving it that abrupt change added dynamic to the song. Their guitar tone is amazing, instead of shoving razors into your ears with high frequencies they lull you in the mid section. May sound a little flat but the bass guitar picks up the bottom end & the drums/cymbals shine & snap a little more by picking up the high end. Let us not forget the kick that hammers.
Nunca esqueço a primeira vez que escutei essa música, eu estava completamente chapado e tive o prazer de cair nesse universo em forma de música. Lembro que fiquei viajando no som e no clip também, demorei para sair daquela viagem...
***** It sounds to me like a super compressed acoustic guitar with a direct input. Maybe some sort of acoustic with nylon strings. I've never really heard any kind of chorus effect like this, I've been playing guitar for 14 years. Unless I missed some sort of acoustic pre-amp effect, which would be sick.
mikeyxbriches Nope they used their normal guitars with Lundgren M7 pickups. According the guy who mixed/mastered the EP it is electric guitar DI into an acoustic simulator.
Sounds to me (based on the various teasers floating around) that this EP will be something of a concept that self-references between tracks. Really looking forward to hearing this track in context!
I think I just acquired a new taste for this band. Despite its simplicity, something about this track really captures the aesthetic I wanted to get from Vildhjarta. I hope the new album is interlaid throughout with this dense, brooding, clean-guitar easy listening. I realize they've done it a lot in the past, but this feels a lot fuller, and I like that they dedicated a whole song to this sort of sound, even if its purpose is to conclude or lead into another song.
It is awesome seeing music nerds try to define what this band does. They obviously think far differently from the common musician that has education in theory and are that much better because of it.
all you guys saying negative things have to realize that the focus of this track isnt crushing guitars, its most likely going to lead into another song seeing as the guitars on the end of the track are filtered and dont sound full, its a common technique.
you'd be surprised how they record . alot of the best tones we hear now a days come out of a small compact wattage amp . and they overdub their guitar tracks so some tones are impossible to mimic due to studio processing .
as much as i love this............ this is a reason to never take a single prog song out of place, because this could be a conclusion of a build up to another BRUTAL as fuck track so its just out of context but still fucking awesome
I get decent miking that amp with my 8 string and some digital eq and compression stuff, still a ways from this but it's sounding pree good. my band mate let me borrow his THD head and orange cab though so I'm stoked and set now
As they've grown in popularity so has the abundant use of the word Barely anyone said thall when the demos were circulating, now they can't do anything without a literal blitzkrieg of the damn word
The first part of the song sounds to me to be in the key of G harmonic minor. 2:45 onwards is D phrygian dominant. Though they just as easily could be aeolian, phrygian or chromatic tonalities (shit's tuned loooow brah). The root note at 2:50 is definitely a D1 though so I'd guess they were tuned to D1 (which is crazy because I can't stand anything lower than a .52 for a D2 so they must be using a longer scale 7/8 with at least a bass string on the lowest haha)
Part of this reminds me so much of the song Raise the Sun by Anciients... both are fucking beautiful songs with amazing groove. I'm not too much into Anciients though, I need to listen more. Vildhjarta is one of my favorites.
The tone is not meant to be heard, rather felt. In a listening context, you know, not live; yes, tone matters? They are doing their best to reproduce something created in reality and experimenting with the instruments and the recording gear.
This will forever be a new track
Yes indeed Thall!
Forever the best track*
2018 and it's Still new
fuck you! youre not even my real dad!
I wish I was stoned.
Iconic dark sound without distortion.
Pure brilliance.
Its honestly my favorite part of the band. I dig their heavy stuff. but i could listen to a whole album like this.
***** An entire album like this would be so sick.
+Tyler Cox I wish...
Definitely some distortion towards the end, but yeah, you're spot on with the beginning.
I didn't realize that music like this could exist
+Keith Reece I did. I've spent my entire adult life searching for it... and I believe there's more to discover.
point me in the direction that you're going.
+Keith Reece He died.
Omega Virus is pretty sick.
@@YaBoiKeith pretty late comment but I recommend fractalize if you haven't heard of them already
Heard it on release still to this day one of my favorite instrumentals ever
Same!
For real, both this and Focus snippet are still in my favorites ever
I want this song to be the start of a new genre, one of the coolest songs I've heard all year.
Thall
this comment aged so well
When your wish becomes reality
This song is still vastly different than most thall as it's mostly acoustic guitar and piano, with a chunky ass bass.
Wish more metal groups did stuff like this
There can never be a track with a composition like this, i often ask folks when i show them music like this ""what emotions/thoughts do you feel when you hear this ? "" and if their eye movements and facial expressions change pondering the question i just asked them, then you know you got a damn good composition on your hands !
this song is purifying in a dark sense
like finding pleasure in the darkness
Nyctophilia
it's a dark atmosphere but yet instrospectvily enlightening
***** Laradjentz saywut Julian Jensen always nice to see that art can indeed touch deeper!
Well, dimman is meant to be the plural of the swedish word dimma, which means to darken
@@TheChazz1225 Whatchu talking bout? Dimman means the fog
4 years later,its still a new track. damn century media
it'll stay like that for a century
Whoever produced this has done an amazing job.
I love vildhjarta and have since their last album came out... I think this is their best song so far but I havent heard the rest of the EP. Still, this is amazing.
This song gives me a vibe I’m unable to describe
That vibe is called thall
So obsessed with the passage at 1:40
The way you out your soul and your own interpretation of the groove is so amazing. New fan!! Keeo killing it brother
this song makes me wanna explore a cave
Ha! Gayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
Nullll1111 HA! OLD MEME
play the forest.
Nick Myers i did, and its boring.
That sucks!

This is the newest track I ever heard.
Make the speed 2x.
Go to 2:45.
Call the ambulance
from the begining sounds like an animals as leaders song , pretty cool!
1.5x is better :D
0.5x devil speak to you
shsYoshik fuck i agree with this
Never understood why people think fast stuff is heavier than slow stuff
Just awesome. It's not often that I'm actually surprised by this particular brand of metal anymore, but Vildhjarta is one of the few bands (along with Meshuggah) that still manages to do so. Keep it up guys!
This is so....hypnotic. Everything they've revealed so far for this record has been insane
The new EP comes out one day after my birthday, woop. Thank You Vildhjarta for an amazing b-day present!!!
Thall. Probably my top favorite of Vildhjarta.
So good...soo sooooo good...Thall shalt agree.
This is kinda like lo-fi Animals as Leaders, love it
Very reminiscent of the album Weightless

such a unique song, love it
This should have been the opening track for True Detective on HBO... but the 1st season only
that actually wouldnt be too bad
Can't help but replaying from 2:45 to the end of the song. So good!
I listened to this like 10 times in a row.
Awesome, vildhjarta again proves, they are not afraid to experiment :-) Amazing sound and atmosphere
The djentleness of nature.
So good.
Nunca esqueço a primeira vez que escutei essa música, eu estava completamente chapado e tive o prazer de cair nesse universo em forma de música. Lembro que fiquei viajando no som e no clip também, demorei para sair daquela viagem...
Liking the new sound. I'm sure this song will have its place perfectly along with the rest of the EP
Yet a new track in 2024
this is the first song i ever heard by these guys, been a fan ever since, thall
Can't get enough of this.
I'm going to get this EP and the album next year, this band has taken Djent to the next level 2:45
Fractals in melodical motion...
2024 still a absolute banger
8 Years, an it is still a new track, fellas
How the FUCK do you make an acoustic guitar thall. This is absolute witchery.

+S1L3nCe It's an acoustic guitar :) an ovation with a preamp
This is just amazing. I cannot believe how far this band has come. Fucking love this!
THIS IS SOOO MAGNIFICENCE GLORIOUS THING I'VE EVER HEARD
Sent into a trance, this is amazing.
The evil is strong in this one
What makes it evil?? Tell me
Ger Unkwon all bout the perception
Mad Max Well, to me it sounds happy. Like im prancing in a field of daisies
***** So....I've heard many songs that are happy, minor or major. It isn't the key that creates a happy song. It's the chord progression.
***** I'm fine with that. In my opinion and perception, i just think its happy. We cool?
acoustic.... still does DJENT
Late to the party but damn this is beautiful
Pure brilliance.
Whoa even Jeff approves.
@@PseudoPayton2 my name Jeff
10 years later he hasn't changed he's profile picture
Finally, I knew this was going to be a breath of fresh air.
Sounds to me (based on the various teasers floating around) that this EP will be something of a concept that self-references between tracks. Really looking forward to hearing this track in context!
I have no idea how I came across this my phone just ranomly went on youtube and this came on, I'm so glad it did....
also
Thalls
I sure won't go out on a foggy day now... Or I will. Just to headbang. And listen to this song. :3
Have no idea how Daniel does this .... Fucking incredible.. thall 🎸🎼🤘

I believe the digital release comes out on September 30th. You can see it on Century Media's homepage.
Thall to you all.
Oh ok, well congratulations on being awesome. I can't wait to hear the whole thing, Only 11 days away! This is OP btw.
"Dimman" means "The Fog" in Swedish.
Takk. I was just about to look that up.
@HeyPeni Definitely means the fog
Fog means Tooth in Hungarian
@@solari251 toot means strawberry in hebrew
Dimman means a very stoned, faded person in English
Oh, new track! Cool!
Wait
the beginning reminded me of Opeth
More of this pls !!!!
This Thall!
A different side of Vildhjarta.
Excited for this release.
This is the most awesome national geographic video ever!
It is awesome seeing music nerds try to define what this band does. They obviously think far differently from the common musician that has education in theory and are that much better because of it.
This video is rather simple but so unique and intriguing.
all you guys saying negative things have to realize that the focus of this track isnt crushing guitars, its most likely going to lead into another song seeing as the guitars on the end of the track are filtered and dont sound full, its a common technique.
I NEED MORE!!!!

I have always liked Vildhjarta because their mix is always punchy!
I can feel that darkness is crawling inside me during this song
Me smoking out with my Jamaican friend:
Are you faded yet?
I'm dim, man
That's what I was waiting for.
The comments here are so original, everyone clearly has something deep and meaningful to say.
despite Thousands of Evils grow on me after some time it's saddens me that time of instrumental Vildhjarta is over.
How the fuck does a track like this exists? gawd damn this is nice
this song should be inserted into wonders of the world
Why the last riff is so fucking amazing.
Perfection itself
as much as i love this............ this is a reason to never take a single prog song out of place, because this could be a conclusion of a build up to another BRUTAL as fuck track so its just out of context
but still fucking awesome
I love it, please oh please upload more to iTunes \m/
Wow. the Thall sounds like the tone from Omnislash! :) I'm freaking pumped!
Sound great! Super stoked.
OH YEAH, NEW VILDHJATA !!! Thall
We deserve an A.I. generated video for this song
this could be a Animals as Leaders song tbh :) i love it !
This is so dark!
Cannot wait for them to bring new stuff out.
So 'thall'king heavy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The intro's got a nice TesseracT vibe to it, I quite like it.
Most beast 7 strings I've ever heard.
amazon also says 30th. im really hoping so, ive been waiting for this way to long^^
Me smoking weed: you faded already?
My Jamaican friend: ya mann, it's dim man
Can't wait.
I get decent miking that amp with my 8 string and some digital eq and compression stuff, still a ways from this but it's sounding pree good. my band mate let me borrow his THD head and orange cab though so I'm stoked and set now
I demand new Vildhjarta
Please
Oh my God it worked! Demand things nicely my friends. It pays off 😂
As they've grown in popularity so has the abundant use of the word

Part of this reminds me so much of the song Raise the Sun by Anciients... both are fucking beautiful songs with amazing groove. I'm not too much into Anciients though, I need to listen more. Vildhjarta is one of my favorites.
I wonder if they'll add vocals to this? I personally enjoy their instrumental tracks / preproduction recordings more than their final releases
September 30th cant get here soon enough.
I miss this band so much
Theyre back
Fuckin' loved it. Hit me right in the Thallsack.
