VOLA - Paper Wolf (Bass Playthrough by Nicolai Mogensen)

[@ASMRGent]

Nicolai's playing is such a big part of why VOLA is one of the best! Killer tone and incredible playing! He's a really stellar backing vocalist too!

[@who-n7e]

VOLA has some of the nastiest bass in modern metal tbh, good shit Nicolai

[@АнатолийЕленский]

One of the top bassist on the scene right now!

[@jaysonmerritt6666]

Dudes a beast plays his bass like a lead guitar

[@LovePantsu]

In your hands, the bass sounds like two or three guitars altogether. Not sure how you even do it. I genuinely believed the band consists of like 3 guitarists until I googled you guys... This bass has been killing me since the very first notes, thank you so much for sharing these playthroughs

[@Mandysall]

See Nicolai playing bass, instant like

[@h9imctep]

Волшебная группа. Настоящее открытие для меня)

[@franlovelsimic8421]

Insane tone and playing!

[@fouadjoseph2989]

Ever since I found out about you guys a few years ago, every single song released since has been among my absolute favourites. Not a single miss or sideways step; just greatness upon greatness. No other band has done this for me besides VOLA, despite me absolutely loving those other bands as well. You guys are phenomenal, and the tastefulness and skill with which Nicolai plays is just a great demonstration of what makes this band amazing; simplicity intertwined with tasteful complexity, musicality, groove, and aggression.

This right here proves you don't need a custom fan fret bass to achieve the down tuned sound. Tuning up (in this case to F#) sounds fuckin clean and musical! Enjoyed them when they came to Dallas! Such a pleasure!

When I was 16yo I idolized Ryan Martinie who played a Warwick thumb. It was my dream instrument but was forever out of my reach. Played music forever, owned countless amounts of different gear - bass gear, drums, PA gear, recording gear, guitars - a forever revolving collection - sell something to buy something… In my 40’s now, 13 years since the last time I owed or touched any gear - it’s music like this that makes me sorely miss music. I used to be good… played in many different bands from highly complex black metal to top 40 rock…. Growing up sucks sometimes.

[@getsugar6411]

Sickest bass riff of 2023, hands down.

[@Rallyslot3d]

Sound 10 style 10 tecnique 10 band 10, congrats Nicolai great job!

[@OwenAlec]

It's such a genuine pleasure watching someone playing their instrument with so much creativity, precision and passion! Can't wait to see you in Manchester again!

Awesome bass line Bro. I have enjoyed like a child watching you playing. Hope see you soon at Málaga (Spain)

[@MidnightRealm]

We came here for some smooth turtle neck sweater action and were not disappointed.

[@BungSmuggler]

Damn, those triplets are on point.

[@Butcher___________83]

[@thyagogarcia88]

Toca demais, c tá louco.

[@thijsroeterink]

Damn this! 🎉

[@Fekesson]

This bass tone is sick. What's in the signal chain??

[@isuckatguitar6252]

Awesome!

[@lucmichel7588]

👍👍👌

[@ignamax08]

His girlfriend is a very happy person

[@CosmosUniversum]

YES!!! How did you get that awesome tone?

[@jupoga96]

I think he uses an Helix LT

[@DeceptiveSS]

Indeed, Line 6 Helix board. High freqs are mostly done using the amp labelled as Epic. I do not own any software/hardware from Line 6, so this is as far as I can go right now.

[@happybeejv]

Wake up and vola; the night time ora ora; Embraces your consola when your hearts in amoura, Wake up and vola, forever be vicino, believe in your destino, dont lose that niño in you Bambino
