Fine I’ll listen to Square Hammer for the millionth time
FRRRR
Relatable
love how he subtly roasts acoustic like “on a real guitar, an electric guitar”
more of a non-native thing. I'm Swedish and I've said the exact same thing without meaning it
Lol my high ass didn't catch that
My neighbors listen to Ghost. Even if they don't want to.
I feel sorry for them.
I want to be neighbour😂❤
😂
Okay now I want Square Hammer acoustic
He has some unique melodies that’s why I was first intrigued by their music. Like James hetfield said “ they were a breath of fresh air”
Hmm I don't get this, because their music borrows so much from the past
@@JG-nx3jg I’m speaking more towards his music before ghost, and ghost earlier albums. I believe Meliora was when they really started leaning towards a commercial sound.
@@JG-nx3jgGood musicians borrow...great musicians steal. I don't remember who originally said this, but I find it profound and somewhat accurate. Tobias borrows ideas from the past and expands on them in his own, unique way. I really appreciate hearing his thought process behind the Ghost project...I bet he could have conceptualized multiple band ideas, but this one stuck, and then it took over the popular metal scene.
Protect this man at all costs.
Satan is doing just that.
Every ghost fan is protecting him with the help of satan
He is a complete ass who royally fucked over all the original Ghost members. Why protect him?
Such a TALENTED MAN!!!
The 70s band I’m like 90% sure he’s talking about is BÖC (Blue Öyster Cult)!
I've always thought that he used BoC as an inspiration for Ghost. BoC's 60s inspired surf rock guitars and bright poppy melodies paired with antithetically dark themes. This is ghost to a tee
Ghost is definitely a modern Blue Öyster Cult, they should really have a tour together before BÖC retires...
I think I remember reading an interview he gave where he mentioned that he does love Blue Oyster Cult but they are nowhere near as much of an influence on him as people think they are.
Among others, sure!
@@williepearl278 I've seen that interview too, but I still think the BÖC influence is too huge to be ignored, even if he denies it or if it's somehow unconscious to him. The two bands are very similar, both lyrically and musically, just with a few sound differences due to technology and modernity, but overall they sound the same.
He is one of the most consistent songwriters of our time. There aren’t many greats these days but he’s at the top of the list
Tobias is such a talented person coming with such great music and characters to really make it such an epic rock musical.
Carry on my wayward son
The indescribable joy this video brings me
One of the most talented musicians alive.
Papa can play really well
His talent is over my understanding 😮❤
Awesome song
We need a full acousic cover by him, its so pretty
There are not enough words to express how much I adore this man. So freaking talented.
Dude you are a gift to mankind in a world that is so close to the edge your music is like a band aid that can cure every disease
he is the man
Listening to this guy talk, I would never guess he's Swedish
Playing a SICK PRS acoustic and says “on a real guitar…” Bruh. 😂☠️
Squammer
are you on the lare? are you on the squevel?
This comment is so stupid but I laughed at it for way too long it shouldn’t be that funny
Seriously. As a writer and lyricist I feel all of his points so hard!
Not to mention his swagger and charisma on stage
He's almost totally lost his Swedish accent
A real guitar 😅
I see no contradiction
This is amazing! 🤩
Needs more cowbell
I love how he just hits “can’t explain” by the who as an example. I love the Who.
“On a REAL guitar, y’know an ELECTRIC guitar…” 🎸 🔥
love this interview ❤
This guy is greatly talented. Ghost and Magna Carta Cartel is just about all I listen to.
Such a great song!
Was great to hear an update! Ideas/requests for content:
1. Sound Awake listen-through reaction/analysis commenting on parts of the music and production that speak to you
2. Ambient/acoustic EP of course
3. Compare your oldest rigs with newest, mix and match old and new gear
4. Write an experimental song or two with 0 guitar in it and show your process!
Cheers!
LOVE YOU
Esse homem é lindo de mais pqp
Thank you, Mason Williams.
Lol did he just say that acoustic guitars aren’t real guitars?
The future is a foreign land also has this type of vibes
More ghost content pls
I love Tobias
Listen to "Who will take the Fall?" By Pat Travers...the intro riff is basically this...may be coincidence, but it's VERY CLOSE...It's on "Black Pearl"
I have a theory that someone should offer Tobias to play the devil in some series or movie and it would be the best devil ever , idk why.
❤ das war das lieblings Lied von meinem Mann 😢
Sounds like this velvet glove
Reminds me of fam trip to disneyland for some reason its got that theatrical sound not sure if its by design that it should remind you of dark disney expp
❤❤❤
To me they sound like 80's hair metal pop
Their later stuff for sure, but their first three records definitely sound like 70s Sabbath and BOC.
Nah, they've always had an 80s influence.
It sounds too much like hazy shade of winter. I don’t hate that it does. That’s just what it reminds me of.
🤘💜
Parece o Andy Bernard
That first riff he played was definitely "bye bye love" by the cars.
Can't explain by the Who, maybe?
“My neighbors are always listening to songs with loud drum and bass. Whether they like it or not!!”
It's hard to hear his voice and guitar over the squeaking of his leather jacket 😂
Now they actually been around since the 90s
❤❤❤❤
When is this interview from, anybody know how old it is?
❤
❤❤❤❤❤👍🐿👍
What songs does he play?
Death Knell and then Square Hammer.
I always thought it was just tongue and cheek about the Masons
Yeah I thought that too, when he says "on the level" and square is for square and compass
Now listen to snakebite by Alice Cooper and hear a very similar riff.
He said "this pull-off is kind of important" and then at the very last second of the video he doesn't do it. lol
Come on dude! You can't just drop little bits of acoustic versions without us fans wanting the full thing! (Half joking, although we'd really appreciate it)
Sure it has 70s but more 80s
Thats Tobias?
yep, without any of his papa masks
@@urlocal_liz he look 20 even when hes 40+
I preferred Subvision
I’m surprised he seems to have no accent
Swedes usually don't when we speak English
@@VenusAlabaster I really wasn’t aware. I saw something about Sweden having the best English outside of English speaking countries
So ghost is just spinal tap?
I have been deceived my whole life! Acoustic is not real guitar!
Garage
How do Swedish people have such good American accents ?
Tobias angering acoustic players when he said, “on a real guitar, electric guitar.”
for not being an American. he sure sounds like it
That's what we sound like when we speak English
How dare you call that acoustic a fake guitar lol
RITE HERE RITE NOW 💋🙇🏾♀️‼️
Remember, there are acoustic guitars, and there are real guitars.
or you just ripped off the groove from "Rainbow in the Dark" by Dio
Ripp off of valley of misery main riff from Holocaust
Ghost are hacks
Hail Satan 👍😎👍
Archangeloooooo
Hail Satan!!
HAIL STAN
Welcome year zero
Geeks
Lol electric guitar is a "real guitar".
His voice does not sound like the lead singer of Ghost. Just sayin'.
Bruh can’t even play guitar 😂😂😂
No what he had was a concept and hired musicians that could actually write the music
He writes it
ghost? never heard of them-ever!
Nice shirt
sounds like you ripped it from Alice Coopers Snake Bite
Garbage
You never wanna meet your heroes.
Ghost sucks
I love him so much 😭🩷
Ghost sucks
Like ur momma?
Ghost sucks
Ghost sucks
