PRONG!! Unconditional, Beg to Differ, Lost and Found, Prove You Wrong, Rude Awakening, Avenue Of The Finest... Such an awesome band. Tommy Victor is a riff master.
@Wylie Wildt Rude Awakening is in my top 3 Prong albums. I like Beg To Differ and Prove You Wrong more. I got into the band when Beg To Differ came out and Prove You Wrong made me an even bigger fan. Never liked Cleansing as much, but Rude Awakening was so solid. A good mix between the newer style (more industrial) and old hooks (especially in the choruses).
@@jordanjonz That's also a good album. Prong doesn't really have bad albums. It's just that some albums are even better or are classics (Beg To Differ and Prove You Wrong).
Ola should make a new series, called "Will It Chug: Tone Edition." Where he basically recreates tones from famous metal albums and checks if it can chug or not.
Dude, got tell you how much I appreciate you bringing your wife on so frequently, it’s the only thing that gets my wife to watch with me! She is learning and starting to enjoy metal!! Thank you both!!
Great show today, Ola. There was another Groove Metal 90s band many people missed that didn't get the recognition they deserved. Pissing Razors. If you've never heard them, give them a listen.
Grip Inc.! I remember, back in the Headbanger's ball days, Biohazard were hosting the program for Dynamo 1995. When Danny got to interview Gus and Dave from Grip Inc., Dave realized he was the drummer in Biohazard and said "Yeah, you got that groovy sound, we took a bit of Biohazard".
Quite a bit of 90s metalcore was very groove metal influenced. Earth Crisis - Gommorah's Season Ends, Vision of Disorder and One King Down had a big groove metal influence on the riffing. Also Turmoil, though they were a bit more rhythmically complex. Lots of the heavier hardcore from the era gets overlooked and it was great
Earthcrisis breed the killer's had some amazing riffs, one of my fav albums around '97/'98 There were a lot more groove metal bands if you'd consider bands like Sevendust, Soulfly,brujeria, hed pe, skunk Anasi, Glassjaw, skin lab and ultraspank.
Glad to see Grip Inc in the list, that makes justice to their legacy. Incredible work from Dave Lombardo and the master guitarist and producer Waldemar Sorychta. R..I.P Gus Chambers
Thank you for bringing up Grip Inc! I have been a massive fan since 95 when I saw them on Headbangers Ball's coverage of Dynamo. Such an underrated band!!
GRIP INC. was one of my favorite bands in the 90s!! After Dave Lombardo left Slayer, I had to hear his new project. Definitely a very under appreciated band. Every album sounds different but sounds like Grip Inc. RIP Gus Chambers. 🤘🏼😑
Grip Inc. is great! Definitely overlooked. Waldemar is an amazing guitar player and producer! Gus (RIP) had a very distinctive voice that fit the music very well and Dave... 'Nuff said! Some 'must listens': Hostage to Heaven, Rusty Nail and Human? (awesome solos in that song!).
Why I like Watching Ola ... Well it's because all the other guitar channels are way to uppity and Ola likes to have fun and it's entertaining keep the good content coming loving these new series ... hope you all have a swell and blessed day ... horns up
So glad to be welcoming Picks to the shows! I can tell she's been a long-time coming for ya, that she is very much loved and also very happy with you guys!
Whoa Ola you left out King's X the OG of OG groove metal. Another Texas band real tight friends with Pantera. Check out the Dogman Record I bet you will like it.
Hell yes. I love that this gets covered. Ya left out Living Color lol as well as primus, skid row, down, nailbomb, and biohazard just off the top of my head And if you actually got to see a Pantera show back in the day, one of the cool things was if you wanted to drink with the band you usually got to at some point :-) +1 for mentioning TAD - BROOOOOO memories, hello from Portland Oregon...
Wow I've been lucky. After listening to Ola and Louise's live show experiences, I realized I've seen some pretty epic stuff myself. Too many to pick from. I saw Maiden on their first US tour opening for Rainbow, I saw Metallica on their first headline tour (omg it was amazing), I saw both versions of Pantera, was there when Phil overdosed on stage. I got to see Dream Theater on the Scenes tour, and I got to see Stevie Ray Vaughan and shake his hand backstage. Those are just the highlights.
You have a good wife Ola , it's awesome how Louise nods along to your playing and is into metal. My wife is a good wife also and puts up with a lot of my crap , but she absolutely hates metal and hates me playing guitar. We have nothing in common music wise , she listens to some pop crap on corporate radio or nothing at all. When we're driving in the car together she complains non stop even when the volume is at it's lowest level possible , which you know sucks when you're listening to metal. It takes the enjoyment out of it. I tell her it's not meant to be listened to at low volumes , that defeats the purpose! Rock on bro!!!\m/
I used to work at a Subway that was connected to a music store. The owners of the music store would let us claim any of their in-store plays that none of their employees wanted at the end of each month. Grip Inc. was one of the best albums I scored from them. Listened to it a ton back in the 90's, and still pop it in from time to time.
In terms of program approach it reminds me Beavis and Butthead watching vídeos. What good times to remember! Congrats Ola and Louise on a such great job!
Ola, this may be a little outside your wheelhouse seeing as its hardcore, but one album (from the 90's) that is most definitely groovy is "Look My Way" by the band MadBall.
Great list Ola! Very kick ass done! A band I get reminded of when you talk about groove metal is Bad Brains! The song “Gene Machine” was great! But a little out of the metal/groove more punk metal groove . On a different note, loved that you got to see TAD!
Throwdown’s album Venom and Tears opens with Holy Roller and it totally sounds like the second coming of Pantera. The whole album is sick! Highly recommend
Nice start Ola but IMO you can't talk 90's groove metal without also talking about Pro-Pain, Life of Agony, Crowbar, Grope & Pissing Razors! And Ola start with the first Grip record, bad ass!! Ostracized is a BANGER!!
I love hearing that about Prong! I feel the same way about albums from Hum and Rage Against the Machine. BTW "Cleansing" produced by Terry Date. Probably has a lot to do with that.
I'm 51 years old I live in Alabama to me they are grew up on kiss and Black Sabbath besides them Pantera still today are unmatched got to see them and clubs with white zombie opening had never heard the words White Zombie it was brutal RIP Dimebag and Vinnie Paul and have both exhorter early albums their new music is unbelievably awesome everybody needs exhorter in their life
Vinnie gave Pantera a very unique, for metal, swing rhythm on many songs. Like Alex Van Halen, Vinnie was underrated, overlooked and outshined by his little brother's guitar heroisms. And both are just as great and amazing in their own right.
I definitely understand that surreal feeling, when I saw Black Sabbath in 2013 it was so mind blowing my mind practically turned to mush for the whole show. I was so in the moment when i go to recall how I felt in certain moments during the show its all just a haze. most of the other major artists i've seen tour regularly and thankfully mid florida gets hit relatively frequently, so its less of a dire situation. but I'm pretty sure that it was THE last tour they hit florida before they disbanded. My band went on to open for thrash gods Havok 4 days later all of it was a blur. one of the best weeks of my life.
Morning everyone ! Hope you have a great Sunday!
Same 👌😎👍
1:11am in Dallas Tx have a wonderful Sunday!!
Enjoy’ing coffee before wife n kids wake up watching Ola.. perfect!
Keep it up
Its Sunday already??? 🤯
for that clarity you heard at Metalica ...go check out Meyers Sound Lab. Speakers, and controlers.
No one ever seems to remember Helmet when talking Groove Metal. They were contemporaries of Pantera and Prong and definitely as influential.
And one of the tightest bands ever.
True they are labeled as alternatkve metal but they definitely have some groove metal songs and monster ass riffs!
Best snare tone ever no one does it quite like them imo.
Best ever groove Section, Henry Bogdan and John Stanier fuckin ruled!
Wouldnt they be remembered more if they were so influential?
Ola - "I mean, I can talk about Pantera all day!"
Louise - "I know, haha!" *please help me*
Prong! Sepultura! White Zombie! Pantera! What a golden era for metal.
Hellyeah 🤘 That time in metal was amazing. Absolutely priceless.
PRONG!!
Unconditional, Beg to Differ, Lost and Found, Prove You Wrong, Rude Awakening, Avenue Of The Finest...
Such an awesome band. Tommy Victor is a riff master.
Agreed
Fuck an A
@Wylie Wildt Rude Awakening is in my top 3 Prong albums. I like Beg To Differ and Prove You Wrong more. I got into the band when Beg To Differ came out and Prove You Wrong made me an even bigger fan. Never liked Cleansing as much, but Rude Awakening was so solid. A good mix between the newer style (more industrial) and old hooks (especially in the choruses).
Everybody always forgets Power Of The Damager. That album fuckin cranks!
@@jordanjonz That's also a good album. Prong doesn't really have bad albums. It's just that some albums are even better or are classics (Beg To Differ and Prove You Wrong).
Ola should make a new series, called "Will It Chug: Tone Edition." Where he basically recreates tones from famous metal albums and checks if it can chug or not.
I am sure tones from metal albums chan chug ngl
@aryan20000 He does a great job recreating classic metal tones.
That’s just combining two segments he already does lol
@aryan20000 love his channel, love the vibe
Excited to hear the Django Reinhardt chug tone
This always comes on after my band practice, nice way to come off the high of jamming. Think about my bandmates and friends. Good stuff.
Yep, jamming is an immediate adrenaline rush. Nothing feels better than hanging out with a friend and playing a bunch of music with them, you know?
Dude, got tell you how much I appreciate you bringing your wife on so frequently, it’s the only thing that gets my wife to watch with me! She is learning and starting to enjoy metal!! Thank you both!!
I think groove is something that's almost sprinkled into bands as one ingredient rather than being something that lots of bands are ...
My favourite genre! If it ain’t got groove, it ain’t got SH!T! 😍
Waldemar Sorychta's playing is one a kind and his tone is unique.Also Grip Inc live shows were bad ass back in the day!
had the pleasure to meet and work with him for a few days on an EP of my old band! really great person and such a great producer.
@@gradientblue it's really difficult to find info about him do you know his last whereabouts musically speaking ?
Great video your dog is precious to love everything you guys do!!
we both love Louisa and the dog is sheer cuteness! way to go Ola! we love Metal Mornings!
Great show today, Ola. There was another Groove Metal 90s band many people missed that didn't get the recognition they deserved. Pissing Razors. If you've never heard them, give them a listen.
Prong's "Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck" was one of my favorite songs from that band.
Orbit Culture has some of the best grooves these days. Maybe not a ‘strict’ groove metal band but they definitely groove.
Def one of my favourite bands
Yeah totally I was just thinking where's Orbit Culture in this video!!
Ah yeah. PRONG was def awesome!!! Thanx Ola
I glad you put prong on here its good to know you now them they are sick
Grip Inc.! I remember, back in the Headbanger's ball days, Biohazard were hosting the program for Dynamo 1995. When Danny got to interview Gus and Dave from Grip Inc., Dave realized he was the drummer in Biohazard and said "Yeah, you got that groovy sound, we took a bit of Biohazard".
Dogman with Kings X? Great episode, as always!
Ola always brings a smile to my morning
Whoever sent those figurines is awesome. They are pretty great
Ola=true pantera fan.
Let the solo finish on psycho holiday before clicking forward.
My man 🤘🏽
I loved ROOTS. Only saw Sepultura once in the 90s and they were AWESOME.
Quite a bit of 90s metalcore was very groove metal influenced. Earth Crisis - Gommorah's Season Ends, Vision of Disorder and One King Down had a big groove metal influence on the riffing. Also Turmoil, though they were a bit more rhythmically complex. Lots of the heavier hardcore from the era gets overlooked and it was great
Thought I was the only one on the planet who knew of vision of disorder. Got that cd outside a Type O show in Chicago.
Not to mention Slayer. I couldn’t imagine Firestorm without Raining Blood
Earthcrisis breed the killer's had some amazing riffs, one of my fav albums around '97/'98
There were a lot more groove metal bands if you'd consider bands like Sevendust, Soulfly,brujeria, hed pe, skunk Anasi, Glassjaw, skin lab and ultraspank.
@@ninjaneer1974 V.O.D. is a killer hardcore band!!
Great selections. Thanks for spotlighting Groove Metal. Down is also an interesting example. You can hear the Pantera influence.
Thanks for including Prong! So underrated.
I've been a subscriber for a minute and your channel is still one of my all-time favorite channels to watch🤘🤘
Glad to see Grip Inc in the list, that makes justice to their legacy. Incredible work from Dave Lombardo and the master guitarist and producer Waldemar Sorychta. R..I.P Gus Chambers
This one hits home. Thanks you guys.
Thank you for bringing up Grip Inc! I have been a massive fan since 95 when I saw them on Headbangers Ball's coverage of Dynamo. Such an underrated band!!
GRIP INC. was one of my favorite bands in the 90s!! After Dave Lombardo left Slayer, I had to hear his new project. Definitely a very under appreciated band. Every album sounds different but sounds like Grip Inc. RIP Gus Chambers.
🤘🏼😑
When Louise said "I know" after Ola mentioned talking about Panters all day gave me a chuckle 😄.
Anthrax with John Bush...a lot of that was groove metal....Dime played some killer solos on those albums.
Volume 8 Is a great album imo
Paul Crook
Groove metal turned into either Nu Metal or went the Djent direction.
Pantera totally robbed Exhorder. Indeed.
Pantera happened to Seputura.
PRONG is underrated, heavily underrated
Yep, way ahead of their time.
Love all the bands you listed, but Props for GRIP Inc. Loved them.
Awesome Bull Terrier! Ola, your awesome too!
Nothing says good morning like Ola trying to imitate these genres' vocals while playing the songs on guitar
Pro-Pain has some groove rips! Not sure I would box them in "groove" but they have some absolute slappers
Grip Inc. is great! Definitely overlooked. Waldemar is an amazing guitar player and producer! Gus (RIP) had a very distinctive voice that fit the music very well and Dave... 'Nuff said!
Some 'must listens': Hostage to Heaven, Rusty Nail and Human? (awesome solos in that song!).
Dude, that Testament album was my intro to them. It SLAYS! Still holds up today!
Custom pops look amazing!!! Good morning ola and crew!!!
LOW from Testament is so fucking heavy. I love that album. It was my bridge to death metal from thrash metal.
so many good bands and riffs, cool video!
Grip Inc. takes me way back!!! Awesome..
Devil Driver , another great modern groove metal band
Why I like Watching Ola ... Well it's because all the other guitar channels are way to uppity and Ola likes to have fun and it's entertaining keep the good content coming loving these new series ... hope you all have a swell and blessed day ... horns up
Stuck Mojo comes to mind too for this category
So glad to be welcoming Picks to the shows!
I can tell she's been a long-time coming for ya, that she is very much loved and also very happy with you guys!
Ahh, Prong!
Excellent
Loving this new(ish) series, all the best Ola
❤ old Sepultura i always thought of them as tribal Metal.
Up here in Oshawa we LOVE groove metal and stoner metal, it's Canada, we're all baked to the gills when we play :)
Burnt By The Sun needs to be added to the list. Amazing groove metal.
PRONG is a very underappreciated band. I used to crank Cleansing until I couldn't see straight.
thank you both so much ;)))
Whoa Ola you left out King's X the OG of OG groove metal. Another Texas band real tight friends with Pantera. Check out the Dogman Record I bet you will like it.
Nice job guys. I enjoyed the show.
Hell yes.
I love that this gets covered.
Ya left out Living Color lol
as well as primus, skid row, down, nailbomb, and biohazard just off the top of my head
And if you actually got to see a Pantera show back in the day, one of the cool things was if you wanted to drink with the band you usually got to at some point :-)
+1 for mentioning TAD - BROOOOOO memories, hello from Portland Oregon...

I discovered Prong when they opened up for Pantera in 94!! Philly spectrum. Amazing concert and so glad I was able to see Pantera!

It's such an incredible thing that she remembers the particular riff you were playing the first time you met
Nice tele in the rack guys and that solar tele style looks killer too
the tele on the racj behind Ola is the Joe Duplantier signature Charvel model. Thing is absolutely killer
@@mrrandomcarp2799 thank you I was trying to figure out what it was. It's definitely a beast of a guitar.
@@mrrandomcarp2799 Looks mint.
I Still have My Prong C.D. you were talking about. I bought it when it came out in the 90's.
I always start my day with Ola and metal morning 🤘🎸
Grip Inc an amazing band.their mix of industrial atmosphere and groove is so fucking good. Very good at creating internal imagery.
Throwdown’s album Venom and Tears opens with Holy Roller and it totally sounds like the second coming of Pantera. The whole album is sick! Highly recommend
It’s a shame that they couldn’t follow that album up
Deathless was a good album but man Venom & Tears is a great album! The cover of Worlds Collide was fantastic
Love the Pantera videos
Ola you are a legend. Your videos are so fun! Louise you are a legend too!
i was waiting for Helmet ...but that's ok. I still love you.
yes, Helmet is definitely at the root of this whole subgenre
Please keep the POP! figures up on the desk for all the videos!!!!
Nice now I’ve got a couple extra bands to listen too good job you two 🤘🏼
Grip Inc. was freakin' awesome!
I love this format at Ola I keep it up!
Buen vídeo ola llevo todo el verano y este año siguiendo te aquí me fascina tu canal y saludos a tu metal banda de death metal melódico
Chimera is one of my favorite groove bands
Fear factory is another big one for me. They definitely have a lot of songs I’d consider groove
Yeah a bunch but there more industrial then anything else
They really aren't though.
@@captainpringles1173 definitely industrial for the most part :)
Nice start Ola but IMO you can't talk 90's groove metal without also talking about Pro-Pain, Life of Agony, Crowbar, Grope & Pissing Razors! And Ola start with the first Grip record, bad ass!! Ostracized is a BANGER!!
Excellent stuff, all hail the algorithm!
Crowbar.. Best grooves of all time!!
Biohazard had some great groove moments especially urban discipline
I love hearing that about Prong! I feel the same way about albums from Hum and Rage Against the Machine.
BTW "Cleansing" produced by Terry Date. Probably has a lot to do with that.
Good morning beautiful friends! ❤ Let's rock our Sunday heels off!🤘
as a dude from the us , Pantera was and will always be my number one metal band . and Dime will always be my favorite guitarist .
Happy Sunday Ola from the west coast of Canada
Pissing Razors was another great band.
Yes! Pissing Razors and Skinlab. 🤘
That guitar color/finish damn it’s nice
I'm 51 years old I live in Alabama to me they are grew up on kiss and Black Sabbath besides them Pantera still today are unmatched got to see them and clubs with white zombie opening had never heard the words White Zombie it was brutal RIP Dimebag and Vinnie Paul and have both exhorter early albums their new music is unbelievably awesome everybody needs exhorter in their life

Love these vids!
