Hey guys, I'm Ola Englund and welcome to my new video

Gojira is a band that, even though they existed for a good while, are kind of driving their own path in metal

and my favorite album is definitely The Way Of All Flesh

The production of that album is just something else

Like, the guitar tone of the album is crushing

But if you get into detail and listen to them carefully, they're a bit mushy sounding

but with the production and how every instrument fits together in the mix, altogether

It's just an absolutely slaying sounding album

This video will be a little different than my previous ones about artists' tones

because I don't really have that much info on what gear was used on the album The Way Of All Flesh

From my research, it seems the album was recorded using a Jackson guitar

that they borrowed from Jackson, loaded with a Seymour Duncan JB pickup

Today, I'm gonna use this Charvel that I borrowed from my good friend Jensen

I borrowed this mainly for the fact that Joe now uses Charvel guitars

Also, tonewise, they nowadays use EVH amplifiers

But they've also used 5150s and Rectifiers together in the past

So, not entirely sure what they used exactly, but seems for ...

The Way Of All Flesh, most people claim they used 6505,  which is what Peavey later called their 5150s

But seeing how the album is sounding chunky as hell and the pickup being a more medium output pickup

I guess they used some kind of overdrive to boost the amplifier.

For the cover I did together with Delta, check it out here by the way, of Toxic Garbage Island

I used the Fortin 33 pedal to boost the amp, which resulted in a bit tighter sound than what's on the album

but for this video, I'm gonna try a couple of different ones

I have the Fortin 33, I have an Ibanez Tube Screamer TS9, I also have a Horizon Devices Precision Drive

And in my cover I also use the Solar Guitar E1.6 ETC

because I didn't have this guitar when I recorded that cover, that's just how it is.

Anyway, a lot of talking, let's just go. I'm also using a ZUUL Fortin noise gate in the loop, okay?

Alright, I think that I'm done and I have sound going

And this right here is the green channel without any overdrive engaged

A classic TS9, this is made in Japan of course.

I think, right away, this sounds more like on the album

because the album is kind of like ... Yeah, it's not really that tight sounding

I mean, it sounds tight altogether, but you know, the actual guitar sound is not super tight

It's ... this sounds more like what was used on the album

So, probably they used a classic overdrive pedal like the Tube Screamer or something like that into the amplifier.

Which sounds best to boost? Green or red? You decide.

The only problem I have with this guitar is that the volume knob is so close to my hand

So, whatever I do I'm always kind of like ...

and you know, when it's there I kind of like ...

I want to try and see if I can turn it all the way up all the time, so I'm not like

That's kind of cool though, I can do that.

Like, it sounds really good, I think there's too much gain going on

and usually when you mic something up, when you mic up a cabinet, and you listen to it afterwards

you will hear that you were using too much gain

but it's not as prominent when you sit next to the amp and play, it just sounds super awesome. So ...

Usually, when you record something for an album, you don't have to use as much gain as you think maybe

But I mean, just sitting playing with the amp like this, you know, you just gain it all up

Okay, let's try the Horizon Devices Precision Drive

Yeah, I think that out of these overdrive pedals

I definitely think that the Ibanez Tube Screamer is more true to the actual Gojira album tone to be honest

It was a lot of fun this video, in the end, after all the problems I had

And obviously, as always, my picking technique is shining through all of this gear

You know, I will never be able to exactly replicate any band or artist as long as I sound like myself

But I'm still getting, you know, the good vibe here, from the Gojira vibe I would say
