heavy wild is a London-based lo-fi alt-rock project blending post-punk grit, with shoegaze atmospherics and emotionally charged songwriting to create a dark and compelling sound. Formed in 2022, the band, led by songwriter Wolfgang Harte, has quickly built a reputation for its raw, analogue-driven sound and dark, introspective lyrical style.
Their debut EP, Death Dreams (2025), explores themes of disconnection, loss, and struggle, delivered through layered guitars, detuned synths, and a bruised vocal intensity. Drawing comparisons to acts like The Jesus & Marcy Chain, early aRCADE fire and more recent contemporaries like Wunderhorse, heavy wild combine atmospheric depth with a confrontational edge, earning them support from the likes of Clash, Notion, So Young, The Line of Best Fit, Earmilk and more.
Following a debut headline UK run across February and March the group has since celebrated the release of its debut EP with two NYC headlines and a sold-out Sebright Arms show. With a growing presence in the UK’s alternative scene, heavy wild is emerging as a compelling new force to watch.
