In this series of videos, Johan Söderberg and Olavi Mikkonen from Amon Amarth stopped by the Guitar World offices to film an exclusive video lesson for us. In video one, the guys talk about their gear set-up and show you how to play the intro to "War of the Gods," the opening track to their new album Sulfur Rising. - Розваги
Seriously? Theses guys are some of the nicest, talented musicians in the metal world today and half the people on here are bashing them because of the way they speak and look....Seriously???
Yeah, how dare those guys speaking english as a second language have accents! Guaranteed all the people bashing them for their english only speak one language, probably poorly.
@@TheOriginalCFA1979 Oh, boo-hoo. 🤷♂️
@@nckhed shut up
Рот не заткнёшь ни кому,хрен с ними
Saw them live. Killer show.. these guys are amazing, great sound.
i love how humble they are... awesome guys. glad i had the opportunity to meet them.
Toki and skiwsgaar
3:13 when you're trying hard not to laugh in a serious situation
Words, and speaking are not for vikings
+Németh Ádám only runes
They are also pretty impressive at burning churches
Or for people whose first language isn't English.
@@nemethadam8125 Funny how'd they never touch a single mosque or synagogue. 🙄
I love these guys and the whole band! I truly appreciate them for taking the time to do this video.
Such kickass guitarists, they're not comparing on who's better than who they're just the type of team work guys, they really seem down to earth guys, I would love to meet them🔥🔥🤘🤘
Johan was really cool when I met him. really nice guy!
I love coming from sweden and being able to be proud of awesome guys like these :)
I love these guys and their music! MORE MORE MORE
these guys are awesome. They dont "try" to hard anything. They go out on stage and play and kick some ass. Then have fun after the shows with their fans. I got both their picks from the 2 shows i went to and gladly they signed them. I even had a few drinks with them.
3:13 dat grin on his face though.
aww he's having fun :D
To GW: great friggin' choice! THIS is the formula to success. Fresh faces that are talented and explain things in a clear, precise way. I truly got something I can use the first time I watched it. Like having Alexi and Roope showing BloodDrunk. Excellent.
Put these dudes on a set of Game of Thrones, they'll blend in immediately.
Idk about the others but vocalist Johan Hegg was cast in a movie (Northmen: A Viking Saga)
Hahahaha I love the way they just talk about random stuff . They look so nervous hahha I guess that the interviewers were like : '' Introduce yourself tell us a bit about yourself '' and they got all nervous and started talking about random things without making any sense haha lol reminded me of myself when I was younger xD ( they play really good though )
+lio nik yes i like the way they natually explainthe song :D very focused and nervous :D
haha yeah.
no
Gerald Wayne why ?
You'd be nervous too if English wasn't your native language. All things considered, I think they did okay.
man, i love their explorers, looks amazing
Their sound in this video is awesome actually.
Sooooooooooooooooo GENERIC!!
Olavi has his pickup selector taped in place. Looks like the center position, which is both pickups on. That gives him a much wider tone for chords.
so godlike... AMON AMARTH !! I LOVE YOU !!!
Just came here from a black veil brides guitar lesson for some reason. But anyway amon amarth has HEALED my ears!!!
great band they are.
very cool!
Never! You wish you could be as awesome as Amon Amarth
This is awesome
Sometimes simple is best. I really like this it's catchy
killer song, check out the other two parts of the video.
I like how olavi just looks really sad as well xD
Does anyone know of you can buy the Viking dragon guitar and if so can you tell me where?
where can i found you're lesson for pursuit of vikings ??:p part 2 ??
@Carnifex11100 it's not always about who plays more (or difficult) solos. I think, it's more about who contributes the most. Olavi pretty much wrote all songs up until the Oden Album. Johan S. started contributing starting the Twlilight. But Johan S. also writes kick ass songs like Live For the Kill.
Cool gonna try learn this
oz punk how's the learning going?
Not so good not right frame mood being surgery in 3 days
thats so epic riff
D'addario. I've never tried them but so many bands love them for detuning and big gauges.
These guys just broke the down to earth world record.
this is badass to the max. they even have viking names
Thank you Dethklok!
amazing guitars..........
That whole intro is just so awkward hahaha I love these guys.
I want Olavi Mikkonen guitar sooooo badly!
@Valcarion well, after watching some of the bands vids i have to say the have chops. their style of playing isn't very complicated, doesn't really have that initial wow factor but it is damn solid. i mean, twilight of the thunder god is sick. simple, but sick
can anyone tell me what string they use? i really couldnt quiet understand, my audio isnt the best
"It was made by a guy in Stockholm called "Airbrushed Studio Stockholm"" :P
Lmfao
@Carnifex11100 yeah, i've seen bunch of live version of Roope's solo, and I couldn't seem to figure out why the solo sounded so different......
I love amon amarth!
Sounds Nice ^^ i like your guitars
i love em
what kind of strings did they say they use?
@vikingsreturn and that 3 times they talk to you like in this video?
awesome!! thank you Guitar World for give this lesson!! Next time if you would, please bring Alexi Laiho of CoB or Abbath of Immortal!! They are both good guitarist...
Olavi's guitar is awesome
My guitar heroes!!!
i fucking love those guys!
nice!!!!
3.08 Do you reallize the guy behind is still playing while the music stop??
What did he say about the kind of strings they use?
I LOVEEEEEEE AMON AMARTH AND SURTUR FIRES \M/
@gibsonfan3
Certainly agree. Their tutorial is good and playing is tight as a whip, as usual.
i'm not sure i've heard a guitar tone as good as Amon Amarth's sound in a lot of years. mixing a classic guitar with a modern high gain head obviously works well, especially for this sort of band. having the natural aggression from the explorer pickups would give them the perfect swedish death metal tone.
@mokadesx They cut the sound for the video to get to the next part, there`s nothing weird there.
this guys make the real deal of viking metal
this band makes my life complete -.-
@IhasMetal the rest of it is on their website
I LOVE THIS EXPLORER VIKING DRAGON GUITAR, MY GOD, I NEED IT!!!
what was the name of the strings?
I regonize from olavis voice that hes finish, and he got an badass shirt! King Diamond yeaah!
yeee 5150 awsome love these guys.
Their guitars are amazing, want xD
what were the strings he said?
even though they have a real muddy sound, I still love it
Underbar!! Ja har en Gibson Explorer :-) When you guys will play in Motreal
so Whats the gauge of strings 12-56 ?
@Thekingofthecrux Aye. It's the same principle used in the blues. It doesn't matter how much you say, or how intricately wordy you say it, but what you say, and the feeling we get from you saying it. Amon Amarth fits that perfectly. Simple, but sick.
@MRMOOD3 u've really gotta check them out live. Believe me, they kick ass.
They are very cool guys but why does Ola have black tape on the tip where the pick-selector is located :p
@zgf12345 for standard B i`m sure they use something like 60 at least on the low E, tried going B on 56 but it just went really floppy :P
I wonder if they are going to start using the baritone explorers now that they are out, or the 7 strings?
What kind of strings did he say?
Finally! A good band!
almost, standard on a 7 string is BEADGBE, B standard on a six string is BEADF#B, to account for the different interval between (if you're in E standard tuning) the g and b strings
Olavi is so fucking awesome
Where are these guys from?
olavi's guitar is awesome
the Guitar World website, search Amon Amarth, will be in a list of links.
very interesting. I know not something about music, but it seemed, for me , that the brown haurs one was only a supporter. They had played it together, I didn't understood anything, and now I like amon amarth more than before
@taila1976 most deff. drop b, b-e-a-d-f#-b from 6th string to 1st string
love the way they laugh at everything!
When he says a standard explorer does that mean its a 25.5" scale? It seems a little weird since they play so detuned. Maybe that's why they play such thick strings?
@filippandkevin I think its so that the neck PU isnt enganged accidentally. It looks like its taped to the bride PU. Just my theory.
@spartan934 yes but listen to how he phrased it, 'a guy called Aibrush Studios'
@mokadesx yea but when correcting sound , the sound guy must have chopped of his part from sound
What pickups in their guitars?
I need same:( probably he says “pickups is a original one”
And we are Amon Amarth :)
Skwissgaar Squigelf taller than a tree
@YagoShimoda well when you have a fan base that big let me know and send me a link to your album I'd love to hear your band
@vikingsreturn
did you meet them once?
These guys are what Brendon Small must have modeled the Swedish metal guys on Metalocalypse after! Toki and Skwisgaar would be proud.
How many gods do i have to fight to get Söderberg's Gibson Explorer? Somebody please tell me!!!
@BFMVFREAK2010 Where do you live? I want to send you a Dictionary.
@CobrazVeNoMx is "pursuit of the vikings"
