DunlopTV - Bjorn Gelotte of In Flames

[xxDarkxRockerxx]

not gonna lie when he said Santa got his strings for him i laughed

[KYUBIMATIAS]

He's a great guitarist and a very original one too.

People always say Jesper is the "mastermind" behind In Flames, but have you heard "Sounds Of A Playground Fading"? Fucking amazing album. Most of ti was written by Bjorn, guitar-wise. His solo's in that album really shine through.

[IbanezJoey]

@KYUBIMATIAS BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANG on! Entirely right man! Bjorn is the man`

[pimipela]

Dude i have the same alergy, same things happened to my finger then i switched to elixir and it was fine!

[Aoesl]

1 Dislike, just because he got his beard cut...

[Mackelashni]

GÖTEBORGARE! GAIS!

[joshzelmer]

where the fuck can i buy a set of strings like that?! a .68!!!

[auron2301]

@joshzelmer it's a baritone set. actually you can buy it everywhere

[joshzelmer]

@auron2301 lmao i recently discovered that ahahaha, i never was into lower tuned songs until like 3 months ago and just started looking into the baritone strings :) thanks though

[Thrashersxx]

GAIS! :( IFK! :D

[evil3drummer]

bjorn's bringing short shorts back



[itspuddingtiem]

Björn is just a handsome man

[TheAbbyth]

@itspuddingtiem understatement of the century.

[IbanezJoey]

Just... where the fuck can you get strings that big? Biggest I can find is .12-56!

[MrRaijinsama]

@IbanezJoey I just tried out a set of low-tune boomers on my Les Paul.. the low E was a .70!!!!!!

[IbanezJoey]

@MrRaijinsama Jeeez! What was that? Drop A# down an entire octave?!

[thecallofdiluted]

@MrRaijinsama siiiiiick

[subfiction1]

@MrRaijinsama any buzz with them?

[Goth3m3]

Why use 68's w/ a 24 3/4" Scale when you could use a longer scale length? He's getting custom made guitars anyways. Stretch out the scale, and add a few frets, and a lot of comfort in the process.

[MrRaijinsama]

@Goth3m3 Comfort depends on the guitarist. I feel a lot more comfortable on 24.75 and 25 scale length guitars then I do on 25.5.

[BloodDawnSWE]

Loves that he says "Some band can make great records but cant reproduce it live" well Anders Friden havnt been able to reproduce the really awesome songs that In Flames made back in the days ( Whoracle, Colony) in a very long time. He more or less lost all of his good growl since In Flames started to make this boring, mainstream kind of metal.. In old In Flames we trust...

[IbanezJoey]

@BloodDawnSWE You shoot yourself in the foot here. Anders can't do the death growls anymore due to them fucking his voice up, and so he can't do them live, so what's the point in producing the songs from back in the old days if he can't recreate them live?

[BloodDawnSWE]

@IbanezJoey Well, whatever you think is the cause of the loss of his voice, they still DO the old great songs live, but they really dosnt sound good, the execution from the other members is flawless but Anders voice really spoils it for me.

[GutsandGlory45]

@BloodDawnSWE Well your loss then bud

[qbeo2912]

[Jeomica]

I met him once at a metal contest that we by the way won :)

He was a really cool dude and he gave me one of those picks and signed my ESP :)

[RatedRKO92]
