    still can't believe Buster heard Måsstaden, said "this is the sickest music i've ever heard", then both became a giga fan of Vild and insane at his instrument - then joined the band.

      you missed the part where he heard måsstaden, said "this is the sickest music i've ever heard" then proceeded to start his own band humanitys last breath to rip off the vildhjarta sound XD those are his own words of choice btw!

      I find it odd that many don't seem to know it's his sound, yet Calle gets hero worshipped. I guess that's down to Bergstrom's apparent elusive stance, but still. He's currently taking a break from the band, so may not be on the next release, whenever that is..

    I wouldn't say it's ahead of its time. This Meshuggah-core style was already popping off by 2011. It's just that more recent bands still copy the stuff that was already done in the late 00s and early 2010s and rarely ever do anything to make it unique.

      Wdym, thats like saying everyone who slaps on bass is "sly-and-the-family-stone-core"...
      Yes meshuggah popularized the "low" tunings, but this isnt a meshuggah riff. Very clearly. And vildhjarta/hlb riffs are very unique and recognizable for the most part especially with the constant pitch shifting thats a big part of this style that most other bands in this genre dont even have. While people saying this stuff will themselves be listening to power chord drop c metalcore. or probably even just all e-standard stuff and at the same time be calling "meshuggah-core" bands unoriginal

      i never said this music was bad. absolutely a cool riff, fun, and even kinda interesting. impressive to the point where you say WOW WTF absolutely not lol. hes literally taken a rhythmic structure hes created and just subbed out sections to more melodic dissonant focused movements and ideas. sure its cool and interesting, no doubt, but its not Schoenberg nor Chopin lets be real.
