Hey everyone and welcome to my new FAQ video, so glad you're here.
So, as you can see, I have a little bit of a mess here
Yesterday my trustworthy old 12 terabyte thunderbolt drive started to be weird and act weird
This is where I store all my video material, even the material that I'm currently working on
So, I hope I will get this sorted out
If it's not gonna work out, it means that there are 10 videos that I probably have to re-record
which is not ideal
And I would hate my life
but I'm trying to kind of like recover it right now and let's just hope for the best, okay.
First question. Uh ... Ola.
"How do you feel about In Flames and their transformation
"from churning out great albums like Jester Race, Whoracle and Clayman to what they do today?"
I'm not that much of a fan of In Flames, I never really have been.
Except for like the first albums like Jester Race and all that stuff, Whoracle was good too ...
But you know, they never really made a mark on me.
I like some of their songs, I played some covers of their earlier songs, but ...
I don't know man, I mean, that's just how bands are
I mean, they evolve, become something else
I think that's better than just, you know, trying to write the same old album over and over and over again
So ... They made a really good name for themselves nowadays, so kudos to them.
I listened to their latest album, It's just not for me, but you know, I understand what they're doing.
"Hej Ola! As probably all your female subscribers, I've started watching your videos because of my boyfriend
Face.
"I don't agree with that comment your, slo-mos were great. I wish I had that hair myself, keep them coming.
"Maybe try turning from behind, just an idea" ...
Great.
Hopefully that gave me a little bit more women subscribers
Because I don't want that headache to be in vain.
"Hi Ola, I'm a young beginner guitarist girl. My father and me like" ...
Like?
You should love my videos.
"Especially when you burp. My father can burp names. Can you burp your name for me?
"It would be very funny. Cheers.."
People telling me what to do.
Why does it feel like I have to cry after that burp?
maybe that's a good Swedish word for the day, gråtrapa.
It's when you cry and burp at the same time. It's excellent, okay.
"Ola, what is your opinion on-
It begins.
"Ola, what is your opinion on PRS amplifiers and guitars? Will you review them on your channel anytime soon?"
I have tried their Pur ...
purse ... Purse!
Oh, that's an excellent name. I'm gonna call PRS 'Purse' from now on
I tried a PRS Archon amplifier over at Guitar Candy
and it was, you know, it was a good tight amplifier, but ...
I don't know. I just think it didn't really have its own voice maybe.
But it was a really good amplifier, I must say and it was just, you know ...
I tried it out, it sounded good, but it really did not make me excited or anything like that. So I guess it was good.
I have no experience regarding PRS guitars, I have not played many at all.
So I can't really say anything about the guitars. They look really beautiful though, I must say.
They look stunning
Especially that strat.
That ...
"What do you think about Six Feet Under's new album?"
Funny that you mention it, because I did not know that they were releasing an album
But I found out that they released an album
which is basically all the old sessions from Unborn and Undead
And since I was a part of Unborn ...
there were a bunch of songs that did not end up on that album
And apparently they are now on this new album, so I had no idea about that
So right now you can listen to ... I think it's 3 or 4
No. Shit.
My hard drive. Oh, it's ... No.
My ass, f***face
Oh f***ing hell. So, what was the question?
Oh Six Feet Under's new album, okay.
So yeah, if you want to hear some new songs with Six Feet Under that you haven't heard it before that I wrote
They're on their new album
It's basically the demos with Ezdrummer drums and vocals on them.
"Olà Ola, you said in this video that you still don't play well. At the same ti-
Okay.
"At the same time, you said you're playing God of War every night one or two hours
"How about stopping doing that and do something useful as practice your guitar?"
Pablo Dupret ...
F*** you.
Pablo Dupret, my nemesis
Coming here, telling me what to do ... Well, Pablo Dupret
Why don't you go work on your face?
It's a great comeback
Pablo Dupret ... Hate that guy.
But I'm still keeping him, he's fun ... Sometimes.
"Do you feel the fame getting onto you?"
I definitely hope not
Because I'm doing all these YouTube videos so often now, with, you know, 3 videos a week
My subscribe count is like ... it's steadily growing
And I definitely feel like, when I'm going out of town or in other cities, that there are more people recognizing me
I really really hope that I still keep level-headed about it, so I do not get you know, arrogant or anything like that.
But with that said, this past weekend, or was it the past past weekend?
I got a little drunk at a workshop, because I was drinking beer
and my wife was there and she saw me when I was doing the workshop
and she told me I was being a little bit arrogant
when answering the questions on that workshop
Because I was drunk.
So I'm gonna be a little little little careful with drinking and talking at the same time
I think I'm gonna be alright, you know ... I don't know, just try me
You know, next time you see me come up to me and say hi, I'll just put the hand up there and like f*** you
"Hi Ola, asking for the fifth time I think, please give your opinion on Within The Ruins
"and their (basically Joe's) style of guitar playing
"they are really different and bring something new to the scene, if you ask me
"I know you can't answer all questions, but it's about time you share your views on WTR"
Okay, let's check it out then
♪ Within the Ruins ... ♪
♪ a beautiful band ♪
♪ I have no idea how they sound but I'm gonna find out real soon, yeah ♪
Four days ago, so it's a new song. Let's check it out then.
I just have to watch this commercial ...
I'm not- look how I'm not skipping the ad, I watch it all. You know what that means?
More money for the band. You can do that too to my videos, do not skip.
Watch the ad.
It's usually a good ad too.
Bank Norwegian.
Not sponsored by the way, by Bank Norwegian.
But I feel like getting a credit card from Bank Norwegian right now
Okay...
So it's core
Yeah, I mean ...
This type of music is not something I really enjoy listening to
I understand why people like it, It's very modern and it's very chopped up, weird stuff happening all the time ...
but it's not really my thing, it's ...
Even though this part was pretty cool
Yeah, it's a video game basically
Alright, is there a solo in here?
That's a cool solo
This chopped-up type of metalcore is not something I listen to, you know?
But then again, I do not listen to any new type of metal, I just listen to the old shit
Old fools that just sit and listen to their old shit that they grew up with
That's fine, too
Talented, awesome. Let's ... look at 'thumbs up', it looks like a broken 'thumbs up', but I meant ...
I meant to send the real thumbs up, here it is
Within the Ruins. And Joe, good playing.
Swedish word of the day, very simple, very short. 'Kuk', it's 'cock'.
Easy.
A good way to use the word 'kuk' is in 'kukhuvud'
It's basically like dickhead. Great use. So, Swedish word of the day, thank you so much.
"Is it wrong if some metal songs make me cry? I don't cry loudly, I just shed a few tears
"and only works if I also understand the lyrics and has good emotional lyrics. I'm a guy if you ask"
That's perfectly fine. It just means that you're a really passionate guy about your metal and I like that
And just a tiny bit of a sissy too. But that's fine. It's okay to cry, I ...
I do not judge. Crying is absolutely awesome, especially when you're jerking off
and when you're burping.
"Hola Ola, would you mind telling us what guitars you started out with?
Thanks for your vids. You are awesome as always. Greetings from Russia."
I started out with a Vantage guitar, I still ...
I think I still have it, but I refinished it back in the day, when I had kind of like a 'refinishing phase'
So I started out with that one and then my first actual guitar ...
was a Fender Mustang
And it was amazing
Not really, but it was good. A beginner guitar that looked really awesome and you know, it just screamed Nirvana
"Ola, FAQs are a perfect thing to combine with a cup of coffee. Also, what type of strings do you use?"
I think I've answered this question before but I have way more subscribers now. So let's just answer it again.
You know, I just play whatever strings out there. Right now I play these GHS and I also pl-
You know what? For me strings are just strings.
I just pick the the one closest to me and I restring the guitars
I just do not buy the absolute cheapest shit, but I have some some of these.
Ooh, these I have actually tried, the Black Smiths
They're uh ...
Yeah, they're coated, that's why they're awesome. I tried those, they're cool
Ehm ... what's this? Elixir, oh shit! That's Elixir 74 right there.
Probably had a plan on buying that one, but I don't remember the plan
Can I film this? Maybe you'll understand my string situation right now
So this is my string box. So here you have a bunch of GHS.
I think I have a couple of seven string custom sets here
Here are all my single strings
And then I have like the odd strings. What is this?
A tone knob. Oh, that's where it is, shit.
I've finally found it. I've been searching for it for years.
Searching for tone ... Okay, what's this? Yeah, just a bunch of extra tuners and extra bullshit in here
What's this, Ernie Ball? Ooh, This is probably like a ...
Yeah, that's that's a prototype of their coated strings.
That's so awesome. I have so many friends. What's this?
That''s a sticker. Custom shop VHS, so that's a custom set right there.
So yeah, I have a bunch of them, you know, I have some Ernie Balls, I have some Daddarios
But I think I mostly have GHS strings
But you know, it's like I said, it's like I'm not really that picky about strings
I know a lot of people favor strings and shit like that and they're just being overly dramatic about strings
I'm not, I just play a string or two every once in a while. Okay, good answer.
You f***ing asshole
Nick: "What's your take on what happened between metalsucks and Pestilence/ Patrick Mameli
"If you don't know it yet, metalsucks said Patrick was a racist because of a comment he did on Facebook
"and Pestilence got their tour in the US canceled because of it
"later people found out that Mameli wasn't racist
It was a bad translation from Facebook from Dutch to English
"and metalsucks instead of apologize said Mameli was a racist anyway
What the hell? What is happening with internet nowadays?
I don't know the back story of this and so I can't really say I'm not taking sides, but ...
I think the problem regarding this question is that people are just f***ing losers
You know, I'm not taking any sides here, I don't know if someone is a racist, I don't know if Metalsucks sucks
It's just like I'm reacting to the way that people are reacting to reacting about reactions
Like, it's ... it's making my head hurt
I think it's very important that you just stop reading a lot of the articles that are out there
Because it's just like people are just jumping into conclusions way too fast
And they're not seeing both sides of the story and that's the problem nowadays
People just read something, they read a headline and that's basically what they base their opinion on
So, you know, Just be a little careful about what you read out there and you know commenting
Remember to be nice, that's just the easiest way, do not be an asshole online.
So just to protect myself, I have no idea what happened here with Metalsucks or Mameli
That's their thing. That's not what I'm commenting about, okay? So, I'm not protecting anyone.
Do not call me a racist or ...
Oh, the question disappeared, shit. Good for me.
"Hi Ola, I've noticed you're only using the Beyer M160 now, is the SM58 retired now?
What am I saying?
"M160 sounds great by the way, just curious."
Yeah, I just think that with the M160 microphone that I always ... I have it up here all the time
I just think it's a lot easier to just shove the microphone up there and it sounds good, whatever I do
So, I still like the sm58, It requires a little bit more work when I place that into a cabinet
But I just like the M160, I think it's a better representative of how the amplifier actually sounds
Would it be something I would use in a mix on an album? I don't know.
I don't think so, but for making demos, I think it's a great microphone, ok?
"I expected you to talk more about Polyphia since it was in the title, but no. Still enjoyed the video tho" Okay.
I was a little clickbatey on the latest video. I wrote Polyphia and I didn't really say anything about them
So I'm gonna watch a Polyphia video right now and ... ooh, that's a chick in the thumbnail, let's try that one.
I think I've heard Polyphia before and it's like happy metal, in the sense
Ooh, and that's super big tits right there
I hope this video does not get demonetised because of the big tits.
Big tits are okay as long as they're covered, okay?
Okay
They have beautiful guitars, check.
they all have the long type of jackets on, that's cool, modern.
That's a skull, that's metal.
Rose, metal - rose, you know? Metal.
Oh, that's glass shit. Be careful
Are they in an art gallery?
I can appreciate that.
Really talented, I must say. Oh.
Don't tell my wife that I'm looking at tits that is not a hers
Shit, take it easy.
They're burning flowers, that's f***ing metal as anything, you know?
And It's just an entire guitar solo and I'm totally happy with that
More guitar solos for the people. Shit man, chill with that ass.
What? I'm allowed to watch, okay?
No tit-watching here, you cannot accuse me of anything. I'm not watching any tits.
Alright.
Damn.
It's getting hot in here, shit, okay. Polyphia.
"Ola thank you for not use ads on your videos, thumbs up for that"
But I am using ads.
How am I supposed to ... you know ...
... make a living out of YouTube without the ads?
Okay, so obviously I have ads in front of my videos and ...
it's not making me a lot of money, but it's making me a little bit of money
And you know, what's really awesome nowadays?
That I've come to a certain level
Right now, when my channel is quickly growing
and I'm getting a lot of requests of doing like, you know, sponsors before the videos
You know, the awesome thing about it Is that, even though I'm getting them, I could say no.
Which is something I really really am proud of.
That I do not have to take, you know, the sponsored stuff, I can say no to a lot of things
And that gives me such a freedom to do whatever I want, and I hope you appreciate that
So, you know, if you see that first little ad in front of my video ...
Thank you for watching it completely, it gives me, you know, a fraction of a cent
But you know, many viewers, many money. So, there you go, thank you for ... what?
"Damn Ola, you need yo get some sun on that thigh brother, thanks for the video!"
What, this one? Well, l- Ooh, did you see that? Okay, I have t-
Okay, so the reason why my legs are so white is because I'm in here working and making videos for you guys.
So, shut the f*** up already. You know, I'm doing this for you.
No, I'm doing it for myself too, because I have an ego.
"Hi Ola, no question, I just want to say thank you for meeting you yesterday backstage at the Nord Open Air
"And taking the pictures with us
"It was the biggest fanboy moment for my bandmates and me.
"It was so awesome to experience that you're exactly as funny and nice in real life as on youtube
"Thank you so much."
Good to hear that I'm a f***ing awesome person.
Stroking my ego fair bit, but yeah, it was nice meeting you too, buddy.
And that's what I've been saying all time. I'm an okay guy.
I'm a nice guy, you know? I'm not an asshole.
"Do you play Fortnite?"
No, because I'm a grown adult, okay?
Oh, that was the last question, okay.
Thank you so much for watching, guys. Next week will be a little bit different.
I will be on vacation, but I'm gonna manage to make an FAQ video for you, so do not worry.
Please post those questions.
Okay, so thank you so much for watching. See you next time.
