Avatar Play Their Favorite Guitar Riffs

[@GG-xy9pi]

I love that they can't resist playing together.

[@coasternut3091]

Came here to say this. They just have to start playing when they like it

[@markfarmer7534]

Love how easy it is for them to demonstrate extreme coordination just because they're vibing with each other.

[@billhogue9523]

That opening riff to Hail the Apocalypse is ingenious! "Walk" level simplicity but heavy as shit!

[@Ivogrape]

Exactly!

[@torrinantifus1]

Not to mention Johannes vocals are HILARIOUS AND EPIC!

[@iddan1205]

It's the first song I heard from them.

[@brikskwadmafia6526]

on point

[@thehunterstruck]

It’s the way they use the tremolo that makes it so great

[@Elchinodiabolero]

How can you dislike someone with such a majestic moustache

[@gohamm8629]

I absolutely love when guitar players can’t play their songs without having practiced it recently. It means they are writing things that challenge them and stretch their talent - and not just being lazy. It also proves that they are in fact human and not a robot.

[@brunowilliam7529]

You can hear how incredibly connected these guys are. They jam a lot as band and it shows!

[@dawsonholmes948]

the way these guys play together is crazy

[@karterestill]

To hear a Trooper cover by Avatar would be insane. Johannes definitely has the range to do it.

[@billhogue9523]

I agree!!! The Trooper in B!

[@XandycamX]

YES!!!

[@phily7584]

It would be cool, but Johannes has expressed his thoughts on popular bands doing cover songs. He understands why small bands do it to start somewhere, but thinks after a while it lacks creativity when bands keep doing it, like Five Finger Death Punch.

[@Pastradan]

Yuuuup !

[@eucalyptus7493]

Johannes has range to everything XD

I didn't know I needed to hear Beatles licks played in B standard but I did, I definitely did.

[@r2r87]

So you should definitely check "Day Tripper Medley" by Type O Negative :) Also in B standard. And Avatar is beyond amazing!

[@Web4Brainz]

Just in case anyone was wondering those are Ibanez rg prestige’s 3770fz in transparent red with gold hardware. Jonas uses emg 81 85 with a true velvet and Tim uses Dimarzio dominions with the true velvet

[@wxdanwx]

Are you sure Jonas has the single wired up? Mixing active and passive is a bit of a shit show

[@Web4Brainz]

NIAL_IST yeah it is wired and he knows it’s not the best. In a Q&A he mentioned wanting to go back to passive

[@zamplify]

At 0:45 you can tell these dudes really compliment one another. At 2:28 yeah that was Zakk Wylde.

[@cullenkenneth5980]

What's the riff at 5:00?

[@orregoff]

It’s trespass by the haunted

[@generalkenobi6748]

It is great to see Avatar is growing faster and better

[@welpimametalhead6018]

Avatar is such a good band. More people should listen to them lol.

I found them on accident, and my God I'm glad I did. Definitely in my top 5 favorite bands

[@edwardb7365]

There is something in the water in Sweden,these guys are unreal song writers!!

[@AbundanceOfBees]

I love how their guitars are essentially identical, but the artwork on each is slightly different.

[@jdcp42]

they are probably hand painted

[@eliskamarkova2402]

@@jdcp42 yup, carved and painted by swedish artist named Jesper Eriksson. The avatar bass player Henrik has his bass also carved by this artist, I think. Really original and beautiful guitars

[@staceycoultas5014]

I saw them back in 2018 and just drooled over their guitars. Seriously, if you ever get a chance to go see them live do so. They really know hoe to put on a great performance!

[@AbundanceOfBees]

@@staceycoultas5014 I've actually never listened to them before this video but wow. So far I'm impressed and yeah, those guitars are beautiful pieces of art.

[@eliskamarkova2402]

I totally agree. They are great musicians and their concerts are awesome shows. You can see that Avatar realy love what they do and the fans love them for that 🖤 btw their new album is sick 🤘

[@Babyinablender1334]

Would love to see more of them on here! The talent it takes to write in almost every subgenre of metal in a different language than you grew up speaking (in their case two i think) and still have more powerful lyrics than most other bands out there is crazy.

[@jonkerrmusic]

The finishes on their guitars are SO good... love that they're matched. To say nothing of their new riffs; long live Avatar!

[@tonychio0473]

Yeah finally avatar in loudwire !!one of my favorite bands 🤟🤟🤟

[@collinputney2018]

Hearing these classic riffs in B standard is just throwing me for a loop 😂

[@MrTwiggy73]

In ten years these guys are gonna be on all the 'best guitar duo' lists. Been playing together since they were kids and the way they lock in live is amazing. Saw them play together on one guitar too.

[@jimmiller2270]

More please! These two I could watch for hours.

[@goblingirl_6992]

Also the fact that Tim played AC/DC makes me cry because I lived in the same street as Brian Johnson, that band is very special to me, knowing he learned their songs as practice just makes me all warm and fuzzy, Avatar is the best band man ❤

The first time heard them was when I went to see Babymetal last September for my birthday. They were the opening band.

[@starfishnavi]

Best guitar duo ever

[@goblingirl_6992]

I absolutely love Jonas with all my heart, I was inspired to learn guitar years ago when I discovered Joey Jordison and Jim Root but he's the man who made me pick up a guitar and actually learn. I'm only 4 mins into the video and I got to witness him playing Iron Maiden and the Beatles like.. is this real life? I've seen Avatar at Download 2023 and they are by far my favourite band but Jonas Jarlsby has an extra special place in my heart and if I ever get the honour to see them live again or even better to meet them I'd respectfully cut my still beating heart out of my chest for him with zero hesitation I love Avatar, I'm a proud Citizen, long live the King! 🖤🖤🖤
