@@Kevin-uz6sv I thought Catch 33, Sol Niger Within, and Lateralus (Holy Gift version) would be "untouchable" albums. But this....this.... is on the same level.
In my opinion djent is groovy, fun to play with (usually dreamy)open space ambience, while thall is based on momentum and impact, with an eerie and dark open space ambience. Both are quite complex, but while djent is controlled, thall will usually catch you off guard.
If anyone’s wondering the “tweety bird” technique is done by pulling the high e string down around the bottom of the fret and picking In the case of this guitarist who plays upside down it’s up around the fret
I was wondering that, cause it didn't *quite* sound like a typical volume cut, but I had such a bad habit of pulling the high e off the side when I started playing that using it on purpose would never have crossed my mind
I agree. There were a lot of great albums in 2021. Spiritbox, Whitechapel, and Sleep Token who are my favorite band, but this one is definitely the best of them.
Love the vibes in the video. Just two dudes genuenly enjoying the music -- that's just precious. Feels like I'm checking out new music with metalhead friends I never had 😅
We will all look and hear music of this caliber in a different way now. This entire album is utterly perfect. They truly nailed it. I still can't get over this LP.
This song ends like Forrest Gump's run, suddenly and unexpected. And while everybody is waiting and speculating some real reason or great meaning behind it all, the song is just like: "I'm pretty tired... I think I'll go home now."
VILDJHARTA IS THE BEST BAND SINCE TOOL! I SAID IT! 😈 but I have to correct Dan, Busters main band is Humanity’s Last Breath, Vildjharta would be his side project that he’s kinda helping out with because those guys brought him on but I digress because Humanity’s Last Breath is absolutely amazing, they don’t get as much praise right now as they should but their up there with Vildjhartas, Tools, Meshuggah, Tesseracts etc etc
@@MBIRTIRoma Not what I meant. Acid helps to open your mind to hearing nuances in music that your sober mind otherwise may not. Plus Maynard has stated that their music is best enjoyed on psychedelics, so...
They've been legends in the underground scene for nearly 15 years and they are the best kept secret in metal. Listen to Omnislash before this album...you'll appreciate it a lot more but I won't spoil the surprise 😉
I selfishly want these guys to put out new music more frequently, but when you listen to them, you just know putting compositions like this together would take a long time. #Thall 🤘
Quick thing, this isn't the first thing they've dropped in 10 years, it's the first album they've dropped in 10 years but there was an EP a year or two after the first album. Anyways ive loved vildjharta since the first album and i fucking love this song for taking a 40 second instrumental from the first album and turning it into a fully fleshed out reprise which goes kinda way harder than the original
5:50 he isn't that far off lol, according to some interpretations, at that point of the song, the main character is in the end of it's journey back to måsstadens to find the "umbrella lady" which was his lover in the first album. At the end of the first album he had to leave måsstadens, and left the umbrella lady there. Also in the first album, one interpretation I saw was this song was played at a wedding at måsstadens, which involves the umbrella lady and the tyrant.
During the podcast with Buster, Nik was taught how to properly pronounce it but you have to remember Nik has many skills but speaking isn't one of them. In other words he sucks at english lmao -JC
Album of the year candidate, indeed! But have you listened to their guitarist's and drummer's side project called Stoort Neer? That shit is heavy as fuck too!
He might be onto the sitar influence. They can have up to 30 strings, with a max of around 9 actually being playable. The other strings are there simply to resonate with the notes being played, and it seems Vildhjarta has always loved to play around with the constructive/deconstructive interference of playing different consonant/dissonant phrases. It’s similar to what you see a lot of black metal bands like Deathspell Omega, Svartidauði, and Yellow Eyes doing, though I think they’re more inspired by how harmonically chaotic black metal already is
ive always thought thall is to djent what downtempo is to deathcore similar sounds just slower but just as wild and a bit more menacingly violent sounding with just a bit of ambient
@@web shadow, all these feelings, and dagger. In the middle during an ambient kart you hear the five notes from the intro to dagger then it goes into that chaotic, super aggressive riff. When it went from dagger to new heavy shit, I fucking lost it.
It was gonna happen when Trivium released their album but Matt didn't have time during that Friday. But in general guests are always on stream when they are releasing new stuff, there is a reason Dan was there -JC
