No, no no no no
It's still a shit riff
You know, I was sitting here this whole morning trying to write something and this is what came out
Oh my god
I mean, when you sit and force yourself to write something
Sometimes and most of the times, you know, it turns out ok
But a lot of the times it also turns out to shit
What's up everyone?
Thank you so much
Welcome, guys, to a new Sunday with Ola
Shit, what's up over there?
Before I start...
I actually don't have a new Solar guitar to show today
That's a first one
But I wanted to talk a little bit about what happened this past week
You know, this is my second week coming back from vacation
And by that, you know, getting time to breathe
Within you know, me making videos and making content and all that, and just think, and think, and think
I had so many good ideas and I'm really stoked about what's about to come
... And projects that I have
And that one thing is that I reactivated my Ola Englund metal gaming channel, yes
You know, I made some live streams on there before
But I haven't uploaded a full video in like 2 years
But you know, it has 10 thousand subscribers, I thought to myself...
Why am I not making more gaming videos?
You know, I love gaming, I know a lot of you guys love gaming as well
And if you're not into gaming, you know, you don't have to got to that channel, isn't that awesome?
It doesn't interfere with this channel, ok?
So yeah, that's my little tip for you if you're into what I do and you like gaming as well...
Maybe you go follow my Twitch, you kno?
I plan to stream like 2 times every week and you know, I have at least 1 video per session on my...
Ola Englund Metal Gaming youtube channel
It's basically me sitting around gaming, answering questions
And here and there I pick up the guitar and play some shit
If you're more into that style, maybe you know, Twitch and my Ola Englund youtube gaming channel is for you
So I'll put a couple of links somewhere where you can subscribe and follow and all that
But also, yes
I forgot to mention this
This has come to my attention that since the 13th of August...
Youtube is not sending out any youtube notifications through email
Now, when I heard this I was like 'Huh?'
Wh-what? Why?
I read an article and youtube basically said that the impact will be zero on your channel
I don't want to complain about youtube and you know, whatever they do
But they're basically calling everyone who made a comment
That they're pissed off that they're missing out on my videos
Because they didn't get a youtube email notificaiton
Basically youtube are calling them zeros
They are the zero impact they're talking about
I don't know what to make of this
But I mean, you can do me a favour and push the notification bell down there
I think it helps, it gives you a notification on your phone or in Chrome or whatever
Whenever I upload a video, you know? So you don't miss out on my videos.
But maybe you do want to miss out on my videos, what the f*** do I know? Ok?
Alright, let's head over to ThaN-
And I'm gonna start out ThaNews with a very very sad piece of news
This past week Riley Gale of Power Trip, the lead singer, passed away
Reasons unknown, but nonetheless...
Way too soon, all too sad
I haven't talked that much about Power Trip on my channel before, but...
It's a band I highly highly respect
It's just a really cool old school sounding metal band
You know, it has a bit of Pantera vibe to it that I really enjoy
Power Trip is sort of refreshing, you know...
In these times where everything is super produced and all that... they sound old school
And I f***ing love that
Unfortunately the singer passed away this past week
Gone way too soon, rest in piece
Now in the news there has also been a shit ton of new music for us to listen to
It's actually sort of hard to keep track of what bands are releasing music nowadays, but...
I think I'm mostly excited about the new Carcass single
The Living Dead at the Manchester Morgue
And if you haven't listened to it already, it's a banger
It has everything you would want from a Carcass song
It just has that classic, you know, sort of Heartwork stylish type of Carcass sound to it
Listening to this... it feels very very familiar
And you know, it warms my little Heartwork heart
Heartwork Heart by the way
Anyway, Carcass are releasing an EP October 30th
And I'm really looking forward to it
This new video, the video itself is ok, but the song is absolutely kickass
A band that I actually don't listen that much to for the past 20 years, but...
You know, I was really into them back during the 90s
And that is the band Deftones
Now, they also released a single called Ohms
You know, back in the 90s where nu metal was becoming a thing...
Like... in general for the genre there were so many shit bands in my opinion
Everyone was basically jerking off the nu metal sound in every shape and form
But there are a couple of bands that I truly respect and I actually listened to a lot back during that era
And the first one was Deftones and then Korn
And this new single Ohms... it's... it's good
The thing is that I prefer the really rough Deftones that were happening back in the 90s
Like, really rough guitars and...
I think they've become a little bit too soft after White Pony
Or maybe I just haven't paid attention
I really like the new type of Deftones as well, it's just not as heavy as the first 2 albums, just saying
Deftones are releasing the new album 25th of September, shit that's soon... Holy damn
I'm actually having some sort of a hard time keeping up with the music that's getting released
I mean, also Mastodon released a song that was kickass
And this past friday John Petrucci released an album
Since this is not live, you know, I haven't actually heard the album, but I bet it was amazing, ok?
Alright guys, so...
For today's Adventures with Ola I thought I would make a little bit of an unboxing
Long time no unboxing?
Why am I doing an unboxing and not a f***ing adventure? Sometimes I'm lazy
Alright, let me start with the small package
So, back in May Kevin Frasard sent me a package
This package arrived now, one week ago, in August
I don't know where this package has been and maybe I don't want to know where it's been
But I'm stoked that it's here finally, I don't know what it is, I'm gonna open it up
This is from Kevin Frasard, the youtuber, ok?
What is this?
Oh... oh yes
Shit man
Oh no way, ok so Kevin sent me this
Look at this asshole it's a DOD Death Metal FX86, what?
I don't know what the 86 stands for, definitely not 1986...
Dude, Kevin...
What the hell... Thank you so much, I'm definitely gonna make a super sick ass video for this
Thank you
So that was just a little pre-teaser for you right there
That's not the main event, the main event is this box
What is it, you say?
I actually had a fair bit of problems with this
Fedex and Swedish toll office and imports were just about to send this guitar back to the US
They didn't believe that I didn't order this
They said 'Ok, what did you pay for this guitar?' I'm like...
I'm not paying for this guitar
You know, I do demos for youtube, and they're like...
'No no no, you f***ing asshole, you're a liar'
I actually had to send proof that I make demonstrations for youtube
So... on the last day just before they were about to send this back to the US
They released it, thank god
What is it, you ask?
We're just gonna find out I guess
Oh it's heavy and I almost put this knife in my eye, it was not great
Be careful guys with these, very dangerous
Oh my god...
It's... it's a guitar
Surprise surprise, it's a guitar
Ok, I'm gonna open it like this...
Just to keep it as secret as possible, can you guess what guitar it is?
Do you care?
No? Ok...
Good, good talk, good talk
Did you already leave?
You're probably thinking like 'Why the hell am I watching this?'
'Why doesn't he bring back FAQ already? This sucks'
Calm down, ok so this is the guitar
It's the new Jared Dines Sterling guitar
I mean, look at that
That's pretty f***ing cool
This is not slow motion by the way, I'm just mimicking
how it would sound if it was in slow motion
Look at that golden hardware
That looks absolutely amazing
You can see... you can see the signature back there
Sorry
So yeah, I'm really looking forward... I'm gonna make some sort of video using this guitar
And... stoked
There you go, Adventures with Ola
For the Riff of the Day I figured we would make a little bit of a tribute to Power Trip
So I'm gonna show you the riff for Soul Sacrifice, it goes like this
Pretty simple, but it's actually a little bit trickier than you realise actually
So, you need a guitar tuned to standard E
And the riff goes like this slow
Pretty easy
Soul Sacrifice by Power Trip, ok?
What's up everyone...
What's up everyone and welcome to Ola Tasting Shit
Today me and Louise are back in action and we're gonna try something...
'Some fring'
Something from the US, this is from John
The factory of this candy is about 2 hours from Chicago in the state of Indiana
My wife and I like this brand because it's not overly sugary
And use natural ingredients for colour and flavour
Thank you so much, John, for this
I think Louise is sort of like a pro in gummy things
- Yeah
- You're a big fan of gummy things
- Sweets...
- And yeah...
Exactly, that you put in your mouth and not put somewhere else
And we're gonna try this today
It's 1 kg each I guess, so it's a lot
- Almost, it's 1.02
- Yeah
- Wha- What's...
- It's the American... I don't know
Yeah, I don't know
What is the difference between these 2? This is Ultimate
- I mean...
- I don't know, it says 12 flavours...
And this is 8 ultimate flavours
- Ok, I'm gonna try the Ultimate one, because you know...
- And I'm gonna have this one
The smell...
Look at that, can you see that?
Ok, which one smells the best?
This one smells more of cherry
- I can smell the cherry in this one
- Yeah...
Don't take my bag, this is my bag
We have an Ultimate right here
- And then we have the Regular right here
- I have to have the blue ones
Oh yeah...
You know, if you stick your hand down there...
- And you just move around
- It's kind of nice
It's kind of erotic actually
- Oh, I've already decided sorry
- Shit ok
Red is a solid colour for me
I took the red one, yeah
It's nothing special, but it's really nice
That's good, ok
That was the Ultimate red that I took, now I'm taking the standard, standard red
- It tastes almost the same
- No...
This was way more artificial
- The Ultimate tasted really good
- You know what?
Comparing these 2 to normal gummy bears...
These are much easier to chew
- Probably a lot of bullshit to make it...
- No, that's the difference
Oh, so this one is without the bullshit
- This is with bullshit, that's why-
- No
I meant the original gummy bears
- Oh...
- The ones...
You know, I really liked this one
The Ultimate ones
Try a red one
It's just a lot better
- It is, yeah
- It's like...
- Almost 10 times better
- More flavour
More flavour, more natural flavour... yeah, it's just more ultimate, I would say
It's a perfect name for a candy, it's just ultimate gummy bears
I wasn't aware before I did this video
That there would be an ultimate gummy bear, but now I know
And this is an ultimate gummy bear right there
This is much more and more different to eachother
Actually very very good
I like this, I'm gonna eat them all
Great
Terrific, thank you so much
I think both Louise and I will give a thumbs up to these
Thank you, I like when you send good shit to me, just saying
It makes me and Louise happy, but you know...
Thank you so much
John, thank you so much for sending this, that was Ola Tasting Shit
