"I can't do that kinda stuff." ...proceeds to do that kinda stuff.
Brilliantly BTW
😂
Thank you Loudwire! It was lots of fun to do this and to take a walk on memory lane. :)
Gonna go check out your band man your awesome if you never heard of TM Stevens check him out he is insane
Hi there, I don't know much about ensiferum but man you're so inspiring ! I really like your way of thinking as a musician and that great positive attitude ! I'm gonna grab my 6-string and play even if it's 3 AM ! ;) Thx for the sharing !
Thank you Sami for what you brings to Ensiferum !!!
Ensiferum is great metal music. My favourite band. The new album is really good! I listen a lot to the older albums though. I hope to see you live in Denmark one day :D cheers.
@@DrummerCAS Thanks for your kind words! I’m sure we’ll return to Denmark once the Corona-chaos calms down. Stay safe!
Sami is such a geniunely nice and entertaining guy, I could listen to him talk and play all day. Not to mention he's an absolute monster when he's on stage, definitely the main attraction in Ensiferum for me.
Agreed. I've met him a few times and he's a really lovely guy, no ego on him at all and very gracious.
He is
Sami Hinkka is an amazing and underrated bass player. Can't wait for Andromeda release tomorrow!
Moonsorrow, good band!
@@Axxa3095 Agreed, folk metal rules!
Me: looks name of the guy in a video.
Me after that: PERKELE!!!
jees
Yes, well done, you know the absolute most known finnish word ever. Here's a little gold star sticker, you are so international.
@@BeardedDanishViking or I am from Finland?
He seems like a really nice guy, love his bass playing too. I like this dude, he's cool. I'm gonna check out Ensiferum more
4 first albums are frigggggggin goood man
Sami :Hii folks I am Sami Hinkka.
Caption:hi folks I'm Sammy Hagar.
Cant get more wholesome than the members of this band, but something really special about Sami and his smile. Would love to see a bass collab with Sami and les claypool.
Everyone on Ensiferum are so fun. Just having silly fun and playing amazing metal
He looks like a younger and friendly version of Gaahl
Basically every finnish dude
OMG I'm crying it's so true
I've seen this guy live so many times now. He is an amazing bass player...and as a guitar player, we don't say that lightly. Haha! Him and the bass player from Finntroll are some of the best.
Ensiferum is such an amazing band! Sami brings so much to their live performances!
this man really got to me when he said he liked dark tranquility. one of the first death metal bands ive listened to and one of my favs
Hinkka is one of my favorite bassists. His three finger playing is on another level
protect this man at all costs
"yeah... I dont know my own songs..." This Guy is awesome. I went on the First concert on Brazil - SP and this Guy pick up the crowd and lift the entired Band. Good gig btw
Tadheu, eu acabei de voltar do show do Ensiferum em São Paulo de 2022. Fui em 2017 também. Mas tenho muita curiosidade para saber como foi primeiro show. Eu já era fã, mas ainda era muito novo na época e não fiquei sabendo que tinha acontecido. Como foi?
Shared a stage with this monster, he’s an incredible bass player!!!
i love how he doesn't have word to describe what he feels about something, i can relate to that, most of the time i don't know how to describe the reasons or why do i like a riff of a song, it just feels good or gives me that right energy.
Have you considered the fact that might be largely because he is speaking in his second language? I mean, he speaks it brilliantly, but he is Finnish.
True, even though "clunky" is an English word. His English is better than our Finnish! :)
Nothing cooler than a dude playing casually his bass, and reminiscing about all the music he digs and enjoys playing. Feeds his soul.
Deathbringer From The Sky is such a great song! The tapping part in the middle is crazy
These kind of episodes are way better when the musician is as insightful and well speaking as this guy
Great band...and the bass playing shines through in all the records
Bass is a instrument that can create so much emotion and techniques and forms of playing. It’s all about what the songs all call for. Love your playing. With love from the Bronx NY.
One of the most wholesome interview I have ever watched
Starting to think bass players are the coolest guys in every band.
Thanks for the great content.
i listened to their last album a lot on vinyl and it sounded so good i am excited for this one
I like that he includes the Funk element
*What a great humble guy*
Awesome bassist and great singer.
Bravo mon Sami!!!
Love the expressions and is happy as he describing his playing. It's great. That's what music is. To be uplifting for the spirit. So rock on! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Thank you Sami!!!
This is a joy I am so happy to be able to watch this video ☺
Sami is a incredible guy!
what a nice guy
Awesomeness Sami!! This is great footage! Great taste in music back in the day! 🤘🏾🤘🏾🍺
I had the opportinity to see him on a live performance in San Diego.
He's a show man and a great bass player.
One of the best concerts I've ever seen.
I love how all these artist on lately give shoutouts to KISS. Credit where credit is due! Rock on, brother!
Live After Death, what a great live album to listen to and watch!
Great bass lines from Sami, as always ;)
Man this is such a nice guy, I could sit and watch him talking and playing bass for hours! Cool video, cool guy and I'll hear some Ensiferum now.
Who would have thought that bass could be so beautiful? Pleasant and very talented bloke :)
1of the nicest Gear Factor's vids you've made it so far,LOUDWIRE clan.
SENSEI SAMI is an unbelievably sweet&talented BASS Player.
SO fast also
Impressive 👏🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥
What a nice dude!!! And a great player as well
Awesome video!
Ensiferum is one of the most underrated bands
Nice tone and for someone who plays death metal, he is soft spoken type of guy
Ensiferum is folk metal, melodic death metal, power metal and Viking metal.
Sami is such an awesome dude!
Bass at 11. That is so cool.
Loved It!
Geezer Butler is *the* metal bassist. He created the style everyone since him is influenced by
That Dark Tranquillity album (The Gallery) is by far their best. I love it. Very excited about that new Ensiferum!
I first heard Ensiferium from one of my former bass players. He was really into death metal, black metal and folk metal - I don't really like many bands from those genres, but I dug these guys.
what a cool dude
I see the Rode Podmic, there! My FAVORITE mic for podcasting, man. I loooooove that microphone
Had not much hopes on this guy but hey, he's cool and plays way way above the average metal guy. Very tight. And shows a lot of insight and bass culture. Very good.
Such a nice dude :)
Seems like the nicest guy
He is so nice!
What a great guy. Fuckin' wicked playing too
I would love to jam with this guy!
this sami is amazing in the bass. greetings from mexico /.../
I love Deathbringer from the Sky :p
woow, this one was the best one so far! (and I'm not a bass player)
I used to listen to maiden in the morning. I'm not sure what radio station it was. But I would blast it while I got ready for skill. I'm glad you mentioned maiden. I was going to laugh at you for listening to Dio. But I didn't realize you were a badass. Rock on.
Laugh at someone for listening to dio?
*At **1:10**, he's playing Heaven's On Fire..., not Lick it Up...*
Just gonna tag #Thalassic since Loudwire got the tag wrong in description. Great album!
First riffs I learned were Cherub (Butthole Surfers).
Louie Louie, Wild thing and Children if the grave.
"You're not there to masturbate with your instrument". Respect !
Guys, you misspelled the album title in the hashtag - it's #Thalassic, not #Thulassic
His accent is the most finnish thing ever
Nah, his accent's got *_nothing_* on the likes of Hydraulic Press Channel for example. :D
To my ears, he doesn't seem to have much of that stereotypical Finnish accent at all. Sure, you can hear English isn't his first language, but I hear that distinct 'Finnishness' come up mostly in his pronounciation of some band names - hard to shake those off when you've been saying them a certain way from the time you first heard them, probably when growing. Plus, a totally authentic pronounciation would usually sound odd and out of place when in middle of speaking Finnish, so those tend to get "finnished" a bit.
thats nothing compared to my Finglish :DD
Juu häven't siin enithing jet.
@@SakkePie Kyllä olen
Happy Pride Month Boiiiiiiiis
Oh yeah, that bass line in Deathbrigner from the sky is so cool! Waiting for Thalassic, that single was absolutely amazing
New song Andromeda is releasing today.
you got a typo on the album name in the description
what’s the tuning for the 6 string bass, is it same as guitar?
The sixth (higher) string is a C.
The standard tunning is:
B0-E1-A1-D2-G2-C3
Daniel Rosero ahhh thank you
B
E
A
D
G
C
The profile pic 🤣
What's the brand and reference of your bass ? I've been searching for buying one !
Its an Ibanez for sure
Looks a lot like an Ibanez SR1206 but I don't recognize the finish. It's definitely one of their high-end models
SR1006EFM and SR7VIISC-BK are his models that he plays
School...LoL I meant to say school.
He had me at Red Hot Chili Peppers
He said iron maiden "in finnish" (2:45)
3:38 those chords really remind me of cliff burton my personal favorite (btw nice vid)
the trooper
I'm a huge fan of Cliff too but nah
Finland mentioned torille🐻🇫🇮🍺🌲🏒🦢❄
he has his bass tuned to eadgbe im pretty sure if you six string bass players want to try his tuning
i recommend using the bottom two strings from an 8 string set for the high b and e strings
My beard play the shit
finnish accent sounds like 1.25x speed
why is the loudwire logo the rainbow what the fuck bro
Les Claypool ?
Metallica's BASS LINEs are just so good
What’s up.
SLAPPERS
What the shit is with channel icon?
second
Third
first to like
First
6 string bass... So, basically, a giant grunty guitar with rebar for strings! Ahahah!
What's with the flag being like that? What is metal all of a sudden not metal anymore??? Political correctness, what a shame!**smh***😔
I envy all kids grew up had parents gave them guitar, bass, and keyboard .I wasn't unfortunate own one any instrument .I wasted a lot time didn't realized voice is also instrument .As an adult practice my singing someday work on metal growls .
6 string B A S S aka guitar
Well, a bass _is_ a bass guitar no matter how many strings it's got...
MosoKaiser N O what you’re saying is I L L E G A L
How NOT to play Iron Maiden
*_I Got My First Bass A Couple Days Ago I Learned Bass On Guitar 3 Months Ago, And Learned Guitar 5 Months Ago And I Already Kinda Mastered Guitar_*
Your definition of master must be incredibly loose.
Yeah sure
A kid wrote this hahaha
Hank Hill *_And A Adult Wrote That?_*
Ryan Hayes *_Not Really, Its More Like Pro, Kinda I Don’t Know._*
LGBT propaganda by Loudwire must stop
Sadly, had to unsubscribe due to Loudwire’s political agenda.
I just did as well.
