I'd also recommend that if you're struggling to write good riffs, plug into an amp and cab and jam. Sometimes hearing and feeling the guitar blast out of a 4x12 behind you can often make a huge difference (as opposed to using using your studio monitors).

[@OlaEnglund]

Also very good tip

[@SheaRecordmetal]

100% agree. I just bought half stack a couple months ago. It’s been 10 years since i had one . I havent been in a band since then. Instantly inspired. 5 songs written already. Just from the feeling and tone of the amp. 👍🏼

... categorise your riffs. That is fucking genius. I have spent so many hours and days thinking about that ever elusive 'next section' that ties everything together, and I realise I've spent frickin' ages thinking about stuff I've jammed before and jesus. I think on top of that, I might spend some time just tabbing up the riff too, so if it ends up that I've came up with something and can't remember how to play, I have that reference too! I feel this is gonna make a huge difference for me! Cheers, Ola. It's the weekend soon, and I finish making pretty websites soon, so bring on cranking the amp up and smashing out some riffs!

It's pretty awesome to find out someone of your caliber does the exact same thing I do. A lot of times I will construct riffs. With this I will play a simple basic foundation of sound that catches my ear from noodling. Then I will play it over and over. Then once I have the form memorized then I will add to it and construct the sound I am looking for that I feel deep within me by adding a little bend here, maybe a slide there, or little tiddly diddly finger tippy tappy.

[@brandonsutton3714]

Idea for future video: how about getting a shitty guitar, shitty interface, barebones setup and teach us what the results would be, a lot of prospective artists quit before they get far because all the tutorials always show people recording awesome sounding material that has massive post processing, of course they always fail to disclose that part. I think you are honest and it would be interesting to see the results..,,,

[@laomortus8110]

[@jordanaut]

Good tips man. I pretty much do the exact same thing too except I am a drummer, I just started playing guitar pretty recently. So the good thing about being a drummer is I always have an idea in my mind of what the drums are going to do in the song. I also always record riffs I like on my phone on a camera so I can say what the notes are to the camera then play the riff properly and put it in a folder. Always works great

[@jordanaut]

Also listening to new music inspires me immensely and helps me discover interesting chord progressions and styles that I had never of thought of before. Music is truly a beautiful thing

[@bioburden]

Suggested topic: writing unique bass parts. Yes, we generally tend to just have the bass follow the guitar, but think of some of your favourite songs and I guarantee you that the bass is doing something unique. Perhaps get in a guest bass player.

[@sanitytheorist8221]

Great idea, but Ola tends to just have the bass following the rhythm guitar or slower, tense transitions on root notes. It'd be interesting if he got Adam Neely for that, since groove metal oriented bands tend to have bass follow rhythm guitar for extra 'chunk.' Edit: Grmph has a jazzy walking bassline, now that I think about it, so who knows...might work.

[@Firing_Order]

[@joebermuda6452]

A good tip for writing metal riffs is to use the minor scale and flatten the 2nd and the 5th. So In e minor you have e, f#, g,a,b,c,d,e add in an f natural and a b flat into your power chords in passing every so often but don’t overdue it, it gives a very heavy and dissonant sound that sounds out of place but it works! Great for that deeper heavier sound without having to drop tune the guitar.

These are great suggestions. Always record yourself when trying to write, because you may do something cool and not be able to recall what you did to recreate it. Another idea... Take what you recorded and play the recording backwards. There might be something interesting and unique there if you reverse it. I've also on occasion cut out a full beat or half measure of a guitar riff to intentionally throw things off from the drums, which I leave whole.
