VILDHJARTA picture
Vildhjarta is a progressive metal / djent band from Hudiksvall, Sweden.

Vildhjarta's music borrows heavily from the djent phenomenon inspired by fellow countrymen Meshuggah, but Vildhjarta takes an approach to its music that attempts to create heavy contrast with furious, groove-based death metal and sections of heavy ambience and atmosphere, ambidjent, if you will. Fans of bands like Tesseract, Periphery and Monuments should keep their eyes peeled for future material from this talented group of newcomers to the music scene.

Masstaden is the first album of Swedish Progressive metal band Vildhjarta. They have not relaeased any official material until now but they have made some impact in the Extraordinary League of Extraordinary Djentlemen as well as on the net.

The Djent movement has gotten increasingly popular these days, in which most bands just sound similar or exactly like Meshuggah, the band who inspired such movement in the first place. I am pleased to report that although Vildhjarta does take some of their influence with the odd time signatures and growled vocals, their take on djent is extremely original, in the sense that they use their heavy grooves, their intense pace and even avant-garde elements to create an atmosphere unique to the djent scene. They are sort of the combination of Volumes, Periphery and Uneven Structure, with a little Textures.

Now when it comes to the music itself, it is very good. Their musicianship is top notch, the production quality is much higher than their previous material, and the technicality is on another level here. Overall, its definately one of the best releases Djent has seen in a while and fans of this subgenre (or the sub-subgenre ambidjent, as some have come to call it) should not pass this album overlooked. 4 stars well deserved and i am expecting to see more from this awesome band. Long live THALL
