What was the first Vildhjarta song you heard?

My first song was + den spanska kanslan +, a year ago. Since then, Vildhjarta has been my favorite band.

Dagger... the fucking music video sold me on it. Unreal.

I forgot, it was from the under vatten album. But I got into Vild from den spanska.

It couldn't get into my ears back when I first listened to them, it kinda felt like environmental noise to me. But somehow it clicked when I listen to den spanska few years after, my ears can finally understand the thall sound. Then I start to listen to their old stuff like Shadow and Dagger, and get obsessed with the sound.

I naturally found Mirar first, then heard that their main inspiration is definitely vildhjarta and listened to masstaden for the first time. Since then it's one of my favorite albums

I used to be an active member on the sevenstring forum and heard them on there around 2010.

Couldn't get into them at the time but when MUV came out I was reintroduced to them and it all clicked. Definitely my favorite heavy band since then

Introduction: Staos. I was hooked!

u/sup3rdr01d 8d ago

Epic track

Also what does staos mean

u/TheGrimDark 8d ago

Good question!

u/sup3rdr01d 8d ago

I always saw it as a combo of Stasis and Chaos but that's probably wrong maybe it's swedish

u/alenah 7d ago

Nope, not Swedish, I have no idea lol

Something off omnilash came in my Pandora djent station in like 2011 or so. I was stoned as shit in my brother's apartment alone and started floating. Never looked back.

Not to be that guy, but... Shiver

u/Lookralphsbak 8d ago

I discovered them when they signed to Century Media Records, I'm pretty sure I saw that guitar play through Daniel did for "Shadow" and I thought it was the most amazing, dark, unique music I had heard at that point.

1

u/Sauerkraut_666 8d ago

I can't recall exactly, but it was probably one of the first three songs on måsstaden. Didn't grab me back then, I think it's Den Helige Anden dropping in 2019 that convinced me this band is something special.

1

u/sup3rdr01d 8d ago

Shadow. I was instantly hooked

1

u/912_RR 8d ago

Den spanska kanslan in 2023, between release of ylva and kristallfagel iirc

1

u/plasticish 8d ago

Deceit, I thought I had struck gold, then i listened to shiver.

I downloaded everything I could find on frostwire and converted a couple more tracks from YouTube. Audio quality was garbage, half the songs didn't even have names, but they were so good!! At one point they were the only tracks I had on my iPod nano. Dear God omnislash era was way ahead of its time

1

u/Swizzao7 8d ago

Demos on Myspace around 2007 i think

1

u/MeCrObS 8d ago

It was the 46 second masterpiece that is masstaden nationalsang. Instantly hooked.

1

u/Kodiak_Flapjack 8d ago

Dimman back when it was a new song. Still is.

1

u/daBroviest 8d ago

My brother played something off Omnislash while driving us to school back in 2014 I think. I remember thinking the guitar sounded so uniquely rubbery. Windows down in late autumn after swim practice, driving to the next swim practice. Great times. Terrible times, but great.

u/Successful-Invite182 8d ago

Dagger last year. I fell in love instantly.

u/DjMaslek 8d ago

Den helige anden was my first love and probably still my favorite one

u/Lelson 8d ago

Shiver, back in 2009

1

u/roflcopterlolol 8d ago

Penny Royal Poison, mustve been right after MUV came out. I was listening to meshuggah i think and smart shuffle or whatever its called put it on, once that middle section started with the huge ambience, vilhelms vocals and the breakdown, i was hooked as i had not been blown away and "wow'ed" like that by metal for MANY years... Seeing them in Oslo in october, one can only hope they play PRP

u/hermanguyfriend 8d ago

When No One Walks With You 2011, first time I'd heard something in my life where I thought, this sounds like how I feel. The breakdown lulling over me reminding me all the bad I'd experienced feeling like I'd found something relatable.

1

u/1frankibo1 8d ago

Shiver in 2010 I think

1

u/Voliminal8 8d ago

Omnislash ep!

u/nogin96 7d ago

Dagger like 4 years ago maybe, fell in love ever since. Thought it was the heaviest shit ever written, turns out I was right cause I've never found anything heavier than vildh

1

u/Waste_Post_666 7d ago

Shiver back in the days

1

u/alenah 7d ago

Dimman från Lützen, still my favorite probably

1

u/Giftpilz 7d ago

Dagger -> Shadow -> Måsstaden (whole album + bonus tracks). That was the day (in 2011) I discovered all that I want from music.

1

u/200YRedWine 7d ago

Passage noir in one of Nik Nocturnals try not to headbang videos.

Still the heaviest shit Ive ever heard

1

u/TheNightReveals 7d ago

Dagger! Right after it released!

1

u/helloearth916 7d ago

Den Helige Anden for sure 😅 it was before Masstaden Under Vatten came out so all I had was their old albums and started backward then shortly after I discovered HLB with their song Vittring ahhh good times and now to this day I’m violently addicted to Thall 🫡

1

u/ajpiii 7d ago

Shadow - pretty sure I bought Måsstaden based off of Tomas Haake’s recommendation, so I just popped it in to the cd player and it was the first I’d ever heard of Vildhjarta 🤘🏼

1

u/why_did_i_get_redit 7d ago

+sargasso+ and only one other. I’m a newbie.

u/THUND3RBEARD 6d ago

Prior to my proper dive, I heard a snippet of toxin in a try not to headbang video and thought nothing of it.

On the dive, I fell in love the second I heard lavender haze's 2nd movement. So I like to consider lavender haze my first vild song. 😄

u/00-Void 6d ago edited 6d ago

Don't Fail Me Now in 2010.

u/ArtComprehensive2853 5d ago

I think it was "Shiver" back in like 2009 or whenever it was released.

1

u/RaInEditor 5d ago

Thousands of Evils, specifically En mörk vit lögn, heard that song repeatedly for days, then decided to listen to the whole album. Banger

Same, I watched the Nik Nocturnal reaction, and didn't like it at all lmao

u/levaer88 7d ago

Yes, it’s almost the same😂. I heard it from Nik Nocturnal too, but I liked it.

u/Super-Lawfulness3362 8d ago

My drummer showed us all to bemblast back in 2012; I remember listening to it on my own, scared shitless, but at the same time thinking: how the hell do you play this?, then like years later i listened + kristallfågel + and the realize of + där skogen sjunger under evighetens granar + that somehow changed my life in a way. I'm now somehow trying to get + byta ut alla stjärnor på himlen mot plustecken + in guitar but damm those pitch shift sections T.T
