See this is why bands should do more videos like these, this is an awesome behind the scenes look. I love the fact you and Jensen are using their own sound on each side 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
A boosted Peavey Crunch sound *really* is just magical The 5150 Red Channel sound gets all the glory, and rightfully so - but there’s just a CHONK to the Peavey Crunch sound that really is its own unique thing! Hell, the 5150’s got it too, just on the blue channel,
James Brown was asked, of all the amps he has designed, if he has a favorite...he said "without a doubt, the Triple XXX". It was always a fave if mine so I love seeing it stand proud amongst all these $3-4k amps!
The sound wave from the amp makes me reborn. That’s why a heavy metal concert has no parallel. When the distorted guitar sound and the drum sound hits you in the chest…you just get crazy! 🤘
Absolutely sick studio collection. I don’t think I’d ever leave that room. There isn’t a bad choice! Agreed, the SLO is insane. For the choices made I’d blend the Savage and XXX. Interested to see what you guys come up with!
Was looking forward to this Ola. Thanks for showing us the behind the scenes of the upcoming banger for The Haunted. Can't wait to get my hands on the new album.
Thank you, that was incredibly cool to get to listen to all those amps like that. The studio looks amazing, I would like to move in & live in it. glasses-purple-yellow-diamond! (:
I love this kind of video and I love this old schoold approach for this album with one sound for one guitarist, Triple X is a insane amp, can you release more studio video like this Ola pls? 🙏
Thanks for the inside video dude. Have no idea what it sounded like in the studio and judging tone via a cell phone recording is admittedly silly, but that Peavey XXX immediately stood out over the others. Surprised I’m saying that but it’s true.
2C+ is my favorite American amp, but Krank seems like the perfect choice if you ask me! Both a nod to Dimebag as I'd expect from Ola and also a nod to Swedish bands from the 2000s who used Krank amps, plus it just sounds so kickass :) the XXX is also a nice one!
I genuinely think the best tone was the Krank. Something about the way it's engineered just sounds nastier than all the other amps. The fact that all the other amps sound like smooth, modern metal but the Krank sounds like that good ol' Dimebag attitude and is designed specifically for attitude makes it hit different. If you do not choose the Krank, my humble input would be the Triple X as an alternative.
I don't have a krank head yet, but I am one of those few people that hunted down krank 4x12s the last few years for my band, I've got a revolution 4x12 and a krankenstein 4x12 and they're just monstrous!! I need a krankenstein head I was just hopeful that the prices would calm down a little lol but they're amazing
It's crazy to see that Granger amp in that studio!!!!(it's a Marshall clone setting on top of the Marshall heads) That guy builds those amps here in Alabama, USA not far from where I live!!!! Get on his website and check out the cool amps he builds!!!! He builds some cool stuff for a very good price to be hand built. I've played a few of his amps and they are very top notch!!!!
Believe it or not, I actually worked for Curt Granger for about 4 years from about 2010-2014. There is a chance I had my hands in the amp that is in this video. I would love to see inside the chassis and see if my initials are on the PT. For one of those amps to make it all the way from Alabama to Sweden is insane. I never would have imagined that one of my mentor's amps would be right there next to one of my favorite musicians. Super cool. Thanks, Ola!!
Would be hilarious if that was someone's Lucky Cable that has been "Soaked in years of beer and ran over by grandad's step-tractor." Sorry, lol. Sounded great, Man!
Extremely interesting video, particularly for guitarists who record themselves and have a bunch of amps available ;-) ! About different tests you did, it's hard to find the good one because we are not in front of the speakers, the sound changes depending on the video shots and above all, we do not know the "color" you want on this album ;-) ! One certainty: in all cases, it will be a killer !
That's a nice studio! I recorded drums there some years ago and it has a real nice sound. Can't wait to hear new stuff from The Haunted! I'm personally a big fan of the sound on rEVOLVEr.
I want all of them!!!! I would absolutely love to be in that room jamming. I am so getting a badass tube amp one day. either the mesa boogie or the peaveys.
Its so cool you can try out a bunch and see what connects for this particular album. Would be awesome to then bring your quad cortex and do a capture of the rig you use for the album so you can recreate it live. What is the camera on, how is it tracking you like that? some fancy gimbal?
Plug in all those amps at once. That one pedal looked so much like klon centaur. Those PRS amps are kickass! Do you have some kind of smart tracking camera stand? It shifted the frame so aggressively. Oh my god I love that dog. Goes in my top 5 nicest dog breeds. The ultimate WILL IT CHUG episode.
I would like to see a more in depth video of that Dover amp. It had some kind of high end thing going on that I like. Other than that, all amps sounded great!
In my opinion 5150 all the way bro! its just the most metal thing ever. i,ve been a fan of The haunted since , The Haunted made me do it. I went to their show in Buenos Aires cant remember the year,
I think I'm with you, I love the Soldano, but if you don't think it'll work for the project, then it's not the one, unfortunately. Maybe you can split the signal and record the Soldano and another amp head/cab combo so that you still get a taste of that sweet Soldano tone but keep the overall feel The Haunted needs. I don't know why so many people are heaping praise on the XXX; perhaps I'm just biased, because I've never liked that amp for decades. The ENGL sounded great to my ears. The 5150 seems to always be a good choice, historically; so many great albums have that guitar tone. I definitely prefer it to the XXX. If it comes down to the ENGL, the 5150, the Krankenstein or the XXX, I'd go with the ENGL... but I'm just some random Canadian dude who hasn't been in a band for almost twenty years.
Thanks for this insight, Ola! Of course it’s impossible to judge any of these amps/sounds via the room mic (for us listeners). But it's always going to be a mystery to me, what criteria a professional guitarist in general (or in this case you) uses, to select a setup. For example, you're talking about the LowEnd (which is obviously too weak for the chosen Mesa). But it's finally the LowEnd, that often causes the most problems in the mix (-> LowCut). If you listen to the corresponding tracks in solo mode at the end, it's startling how little is left of the originally set sound. Or is the basic setup selection mainly about the feeling of playing during recording? Anyways... Have fun!
See this is why bands should do more videos like these, this is an awesome behind the scenes look. I love the fact you and Jensen are using their own sound on each side 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
What did we learn ....that the cab you choose governs a massive part of your tone shaping!
Krank sounds great, super dry and tight
the majority are Saldano based by you are right, he needs to find the right cab then go from there
Big time mate. I have had the privilege of using a switch box to hear my Marshall TSL100 is 4 different cabs and my mind was blown away
SPEAKERS
Almost what @SpectreSoundStudios
has been trying to tell everyone for years.
@@mouse212001gllleennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn lol 😂
The Soldano kills just everything. SICK :)
@@tonehammer7276 As a Marshall user, in this video, 💯 agree. Makes me wanna try an SLO100
That XXX sounds awesome!
🎸🤘🔥
The triple XXX is the poor man's rectifier and just sounds so good. The matching cab they designed unfortunately sounded like dogpoop
My preference would be the Peavey XXX on the crunch channel with a boost! Tight and punchy!!
A boosted Peavey Crunch sound *really* is just magical
The 5150 Red Channel sound gets all the glory, and rightfully so - but there’s just a CHONK to the Peavey Crunch sound that really is its own unique thing! Hell, the 5150’s got it too, just on the blue channel,
Miss my Peavey 3120 and always used the crunch with a KSR Hera boosting it. One of the best tones ever!

that peavey XXX was MAD
Awesome!! Please post more studio content!
Thank you, that was incredibly cool to get to listen to all those amps like that. The studio looks amazing, I would like to move in & live in it.

Peavey XXX!
Cannot wait for this alb
I love this kind of video and I love this old schoold approach for this album with one sound for one guitarist, Triple X is a insane amp, can you release more studio video like this Ola pls? 🙏
Peavey Triple X!!!!!
This amp deserves more love.
pink strap is most important part of your sound! support from serbia!
LOVE the "behind the scenes studio recording videos"!
Just re-watched "Making of Koloss" this morning.
I would feel like a kid at x-mas in this room!
Always loved the triple X, so crunchy. Played with a guy who had one, sounded amazing.
Thanks for the inside video dude. Have no idea what it sounded like in the studio and judging tone via a cell phone recording is admittedly silly, but that Peavey XXX immediately stood out over the others. Surprised I’m saying that but it’s true.

The feeling 100% contributes to the end result. Great video thanks Ola.
That intro song is incredible. 8 bits chiptune + metal, works perfectly !
Krank and the XXX seem like good underdog choices \m/ I
Was just listening to Seance Salt Rubbed Eyes! Think Jensen is on that? Masterpiece!
the mk2 into the krank for rhythm and the savage for lead would sound so good. Might not work for this album, but it's worth trying out.
That XXX sounded fantastic.
I'd say XXX ! But yeah, while tracking and in the mix would definitely play with your final decision.
Great sounding amps there!
I liked the Krankenstein a lot!
And yet: the best part of the video for me was 15:16 😉
It's crazy to see that Granger amp in that studio!!!!(it's a Marshall clone setting on top of the Marshall heads) That guy builds those amps here in Alabama, USA not far from where I live!!!!

Every studio need a pool table ;) .... looks like a room of fun for sure.
the intro track is a Banger.
That's his new single "Game Over" :D
Dig the chip chug
We used a xxx for years through a 1960a cab on one side and a dual rec with a Mesa 4/12 on the other….it was the perfect mix for death metal
Would be hilarious if that was someone's Lucky Cable that has been "Soaked in years of beer and ran over by grandad's step-tractor."
Sorry, lol. Sounded great, Man!

One certainty: in all cases, it will be a killer !
My picks. Savage for the crunch, and triple X for the rhythm and leads. But I think the Krank would suit more your style for the rhythm guitars.
What a sick studio!
I am so jealous. Talk about a kid in a candy store….I’d spend days working through that mountain of amps. Rock on 🎸.
Must b nice to choose from all those. When I jam with my friend we each play thru a Line 6 spider 3, and they kick ass
Paradise right here!
That's a nice studio! I recorded drums there some years ago and it has a real nice sound. Can't wait to hear new stuff from The Haunted! I'm personally a big fan of the sound on rEVOLVEr.
Gotta say, the black one sounded beyond killer, might be the best thing I’ve ever herd. Go with that one
Wow... what an amazing facility!! I'd never leave!
I would die happy in a room like that
On today's episode of Does it Chug? Yes, yes they do.
I want all of them!!!! I would absolutely love to be in that room jamming. I am so getting a badass tube amp one day. either the mesa boogie or the peaveys.
Love it that you woke all the other guys up testing those amps !
I've loved the Haunted since 1999! Come back to the states!
What a beautiful studio…I had no idea you were in THE HAUNTED?!?! That’s amazing and an incredible✅on your resume! TIGHT TIGHT TIGHT🤘
Only played with them for 12 years :D
Your face with the Soldano, Mike should be proud…lol
Its so cool you can try out a bunch and see what connects for this particular album. Would be awesome to then bring your quad cortex and do a capture of the rig you use for the album so you can recreate it live.

SICK THIS IS HOW ALBUMS SHOULD BE MADE!! killer brother good luck god bless
I would like to see a more in depth video of that Dover amp. It had some kind of high end thing going on that I like. Other than that, all amps sounded great!
Gjorde en skiva med Oscar för tio år sedan, anima med bandet Akribi. Han är grym, ni är i goda händer. Lycka till! Mvh Martin 🤘
In my opinion 5150 all the way bro! its just the most metal thing ever. i,ve been a fan of The haunted since , The Haunted made me do it. I went to their show in Buenos Aires cant remember the year,
Metalzone into power amp of the valvestate!
@@BDMusic2021 Ewwwwe
Nah. A Katana into another Katana!
@@StormtrooperCylon Would unironically sound really cool. Weird tone, probably wouldn’t use it for a lot, but I think it would be cool in a weird way.
The first Savage and cab you plugged into \m/
I think I'm with you, I love the Soldano, but if you don't think it'll work for the project, then it's not the one, unfortunately. Maybe you can split the signal and record the Soldano and another amp head/cab combo so that you still get a taste of that sweet Soldano tone but keep the overall feel The Haunted needs.

The ENGL sounded great to my ears. The 5150 seems to always be a good choice, historically; so many great albums have that guitar tone. I definitely prefer it to the XXX.
If it comes down to the ENGL, the 5150, the Krankenstein or the XXX, I'd go with the ENGL... but I'm just some random Canadian dude who hasn't been in a band for almost twenty years.
Thank you for sharing this and so glad you guys are doing this album in the studio. Care to tell us who is producing it?!
XXX or the Savage for the win got dem big ol booming low ends.
Chaos AD has two different guitar tones and sounds amazing!
Just can’t beat the EVH stealth!
Savage a close second.
Just find a Line 6 Spyder!!! Insane tones with that amp!!! 🤘😂🤘
I have a full stack cabinet set up from 2004 of oversized Mesa Rectifier cabinets. 🤘😎🤘
I think you will have to ultimately listen to the harmonies that both guitars produce to make your choice.
MORE THE HAUNTED!!! I WANT TO BANG THE LOGO IN HAMBURG!
and instill want the 99 hockey shirt of Jensen! Still waiting for it.
Can't wait for the new album. It's gonna be so sick 🤘
BBE Sonic Maximizer or Sonic Stomp in the effect loop of the Peavey XXX/3120 is insane. Also great in the 5150.
Definitely the framus cobra and marshall silver cab with jensen nighthawk 75, oh wait, ola you wish 😅 .......❤
It’s interesting to see you dial in the savage. You use a bit less channel volume to get a slightly drier tone with it than most do.
One band that comes to mind is Exodus when they used a different guitar tone on each side for Impact Is Imminent, both are heavy as hell!!
Got the XXX but no JSX?
back to savage!!!! You seem more natural on it. And the 5150 for sure
ENGL playing feared brings 2012-2013 era Ola back :)
was this the dude from Carnal Forge at the console in the end ?? Anyhow, GO WITH THE KRANK
Thanks for this insight, Ola! Of course it’s impossible to judge any of these amps/sounds via the room mic (for us listeners).

Peavey XXX prices just skyrocketed, the classic hidden gem for 5150-esque tones on a budget.
More studio updates please !
I'm not understanding why the Soldano tone wouldn't work.
12:01 looks like Gollum when realizes lost the ring
YEEEEAAAAAHHHHH!!!! Can't contain my excitement getting more The Haunted!!!!!!
Will order the Biggus Dickus version of it!!!!!
🤘😈🤘 so inspiring my friend 🔥🔥🔥
that krank sounds sickkk
I would love to play through some of those
I disagree with you saying that Soldano wasn't the right sound. I think it would compliment the Engl perfectly
Grymt att Studio Bohus är back in business👌
Great studio. Is Dragan still the owner?
the EVH stealth and the SLO both sounded killer
Soldano without the TS9 sounds awesome, got balls.
You guys should just blend a bunch of amps AIC style , have fun with it 😃Cant wait for the album 🤘
slo 100 and powerball are amazing+the mesa sound
That Neve is the bomb 😲
SAVAGE !!!! is the best amp of the world !!! and this combination with EVH 5150 will kill 🙂
Would be really interested to hear your thought process when ruling out an amp.
Hello Ola, My name is Simon. Love the video.
Osterreicher
What cab was that IIc going through? Because it sounded great but lacked bottom (I'm going to guess it's that Orange 2x12 it was sitting on)
Big Haunted fan here. I think the Soldano would be killer and not cliche. Given your band has two awesome players, the Soldano sound would blend well.
Please tell me you will do a "Will It Chug" video with the new Hello Kitty guitar. PLEASE! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
These amps are all monster sounding. Now you choose what sits well in the mix with your colleague on the other side.
