Had an awesome coffee with Nick from As I lay Dying when they passed by Stockholm.

Metalcore fan or not, this is the sweetest, most genuine dude ever. Chill AF...... Glad to see him happy and smiling again 🤘

Nick always comes off as the most awesome, genuine dude.

As I lay Dying are absolute riff masters!

Nick talking about the darkest past in the band's history and Ola is playing elevatror music in the backgroung. Legend.

An Ocean Between Us is one of my favorite metal albums, period. Not sure if it was the time in my life when it came out or what, but damn. You can listen to that thing start to finish.

I was really hoping that you would have him try a Solar guitar 😂 speaking of, are you ever gonna have people jam on Coffee with Ola? I think it would be cool.

Nick's hair is more beautiful than my girlfriend's.

Wish the interview was longer. Nick Hipa is such a genuine guy.

I adore the way he handled the recent situation like a gentleman, in a calm and reasoned way.

this guy sounds just like Jonah Hill

One of the best guitarists in Metalcore history, yet so humble. Love it!

Nick’s Pantera/Smash Mouth shirt is legendary I want it

Nick is one of the most down-to-earth Rock stars you've ever met great guy

so Nick,How many good riffs are on the album - Nick: YES hehehehe.Brillaint album!

Nick is one of my favorite guitarist. Caught his pick in Chicago after driving 6 hours. Carry it in my wallet everywhere I go lol. Can’t wait for the Cleveland show!

Ola: "SLA dying"

Nicks skill with the guitar is only matched by his genuine nice guy vibe. Love him!

Nick is Extremely kind, genuine and personable guy. Regardless of what size as the bands he has played in got. He remained a down to earth personable kind guy to his fans and friend's

Nick is such a genuine dude. So laid back and very surfer dude. So happy to see him happy again. That was such a dark time for everyone. Glad they are on the road to better days

Living Sacrifice is amazing! I love that Nick name dropped them! 'REJECT'

I want a shirt that says "where's the riffs?"

I'm so happy Wovenwar is not dead. I love that band. I wish more bands embraced the idea of heavy metalcore riffs with strictly clean vocals. IMO it brings something much more unique and interesting to the genre and nobody else is really doing it.

AHHH! So glad to hear someone talk about Living Sacrifice!

That Smash Mouth/Panthers shirt tho😂 Love Nick. Him and Phil were huge influences on my in high school.

What an awesome interview, to tell you the truth I knew nothing about this band, and went and watched a video, I must say I was blown away. And seeing this guys attitude made me like them even more! New Fan for As I Lay Dying! Ola bringing the goodness!

Yay that coffee with Ola thing is getting better and better! Lovely greets from Nashville everyone, just got here last night battling jet lag now! In Europe my EV guitar tech is on tour with AILD these days haha - small world!

Coffee with Mikael Akerfeldt please!

Drink a shot every time Nick says sick lol. Awesome interview, big fan of the band!

The metal community as a whole is just so full of down to earth people that you almost don't see in any other genre of music...and when you'd think being incredible musicians would grant them the right to be a** holes, they're not. Makes me happy to hear guys like Nick, Jeff Loomis, Dimebag etc...so humble

That time Ola made a blue balls reference....great stuff, Ola!

That was rad, thanks Ola. Guest wishlist: COFFEE WITH OLA - Russ Parrish "Satchel."

Awesome dude and band, would've loved to see a longer interview. Hope to see Adam D and/or Joel from Killswitch in the next CWO, they're playing in Stockholm the 30th, just a tip.

When I close my eyes I can hear Kirk Hammet's voice and intonation!

Kings of the melkor genre as the CC subtitles say :) I can hear LOTR fans giggle hehe

I wish Nick well in his future endeavors after parting with as i lay dying

If Megadeth ever rolls through, do a coffee with Kiko!

The older I get, the less "genres" make any sense to me...

First album I bought going into the military after high-school was Frail Words Collapse. It was such a impactful experience, never really heard anything like it besides some vague resemblances to other genres I dabbled in. Wished I could of seen them once during the mid 2000's, but even today I still enjoy this album. Nick is definitely in my list of favorite guitarists.

Nick always hyped seeing you around town!

I listen to this band everyday when I work out or need some inspiration. I got a chance to interview them at Mayhem Festival 10 years ago. They were on fire. Best band at the show....

Ola as always an amazing job on this video. Nick and As I lay dying are so genuine and this video shows just a piece of that. So glad this band is back. Metalcore at its finest.

Great interview and Nick seems to be really nice. I am looking forward to see them when they are back in Germany this month :-) Fan from the beginning and still am. Thanks Ola!

I was just watching another Coffee with Ola and a new one comes up while I am watching it. Somethings are meant to be.

METALCORE IS LIFE. it led me to all other heavy genres

Hi Ola! Just started following your channel a few months ago and it's become one of my favourite to watch. Coffee With Ola is now part of my morning coffee routine and I love your gear reviews and the Will It Chug series. Keep up the great work man, much love from Canada!

Wes Hauch would be perfect for Coffee with Ola, as that would unite the 2 biggest Dimebag fans ever.

The first 3/4 Living Sacrifice albums are amazing.

I absolutely love Nick!!! Thanks Ola, great interview dude👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘

That was the fastest 24 minutes! I would’ve loved another hour of this convo. Can’t believe you got him on.

Seen AILD a long time ago with Shadow’s Fall and thought “that was a sick band” but stupidly never followed them. Later on heard about what happened and thought nothing more of it. Watched the discussion video which was heavy to bear witness to in its own right. And without hesitation clicked on the My Own Grave single and was blown away by the music and the delivery on which it was based. Then a couple videos back Ola mentions listening to the new album and says that the album is solid and has great riffs and leads. If anyone knows great riffs and leads it’s Ola. Been checking out the album ever since. Like them or not AILD are legit and solid as all fuck, really happy to see them just forging ahead and Nick is such a down to earth guy. Been waiting for this coffee with Ola since I saw a bit of footage from the AILD vlog. So far my fave episode.

I had the chance to have a short talk with THE Nick Hippa in Buenos Aires before the AILD show last september and he's so humble, other AILD members as well, I;m so happy they're back.

Great chat Ola! Nick is an awesome dude. Wish it could have been longer but thanks again for having him on Coffee with Ola!!

Really interesting interview and brave step of you to get somebody from As I Lay Dying for the show.

As I lay dying is one of the best metal bands ever. Banger after banger

this was awesome! As I Lay Dying have been one of my favorite bands for a long time

I've always loved Nick, writes such bad ass riffs but is also the most genuine kind dude lol

Thank you for having Nick, Ola!! I absolutely love the guys in AILD, their show in Stockholm was phenomenal!!

Him and Phil are always unbeatable when playing riffs. I cannot forget one video I've watched where they dissect Parallels. From riffs, to the lead playing, everything is topnotch! Glad to see him using the MJR Sig now, but looking forward to see him with a Solar Single Cut.

The best 'Coffee with Ola' 'til date. Nick is such a awesome guy and AILD are, of course, the kings of metalcore. Amazing content, Ola!

0:07 this cover fuses well with the video background along with Nick and Ola's arms!

I love this series. Definitely awesome to see Nick on the channel!

This is awesome, finally get to see this miracle happen❤️❤️ such humble dudes

Nick...dude has been my hero for over a decade favorite guitarist ever!! Fuckin love u nick

nice one Ola! What a humble, nice dude Nick is...enjoyed that.

I have never clicked on a video so fast in my life before...

Great interview Ola! Love that band so much!

Always a pleasure to follow your interview, sharing the same values and our passion with passionate people : Metal music :) "As I lay Dying" is an excellent metal band as well!

It's really nice seeing that Wovenwar isn't a dead thing and that they may do other things in the future! I really enjoyed the band. Also, Nick just seems like the coolest and chillest dude ever, so nice to see him kinda fanboying there in the beginning, hahaha

Heck yes! I was waiting for this!

I'm not a fan of metalcore but I like this guy Nick. He just seems like a sweet dude. Hope he's happy.

What a good dude and a great interview.

This was awesome. Also 400k subscribers, congrats Ola!

Awesome interview !! Dude has a great and humble attitude. I Agree with others on here I think a jam of some sort would be bring it to another level. lol Thanks ola

Super stoked to see Nick on coffee with Ola. Have only stumbled across As I Lay Dying when they released My Own Grace and they are now my fave Metal band next to KSE so love to see that you enjoyed the new album as much as I did. Love your work Ola. 🤟🏻

Great episode Nick seems to be a super nice and genuine dude and he's an amazing guitarist

Whenever you have guests, you introduce me to musicians I may not know. I then gain a connection which inspires me to venture out to their music. Great series Ola.

Such a friendly, likeable dude! Can’t wait to see them live in December 🤘🏼

Nick is awesome! I am glad you got to do this with him.

Nick seems like a cool dude. New album is their Masterpiece!!!!!

Nick Hipa seems like the nicest and most humble dude. Even though I don't identify as Christian, but growing up in the church, Living Sacrifice was also my introduction to extreme metal. I was about 13 years old.

Nick Hipa is a great musician! Very creative!

Nick is actually the best! My favourite coffee with Ola sessions!

What an awesome dude and I’m looking forward to picking up the new album 🤘🏼

Nick is such an awesome dude. I’ve played shows at his place of business a few times and have gotten to talk to him a bit. Very down to earth, very humble. Just a genuinely nice person. Really cool to see him on Coffee with Ola.

Nick seems like the greatest dude. So glad you’ve had him on. The new record is the best thing they’ve ever done imo. Such a great time for AILD fans!

KZfaq needs more Nick Hipa! Thanks for the video Ola!!! You need to get him on again with a guitar in his hands!

Nick is seriously one of the best!!!

Hi Ola, thanks for having Nick on "Coffee with Ola" one of the greatest dude in AILD. Btw, it would great if you can add some jamming with Solar Guitars at the end of the interview. Big Hug

Nick is such a humble dude. Has always been my major influence on or off stage when playing guitar.

Very campy music for such a deep conversation...I LOVE IT!

Love seeing nick happy again, great interview!

i recently discovered Ola's channel and am enjoying combing through all the vids. this was a great chat with a great dude. i enjoy their music. one request: you should add a little segment where the interviewee plays their favorite 3 riffs of their songs and then 3 favies of someone else's songs.

Nick and his riffs (Wovenwar included) changed my life forever. Metalcore has shaped my life and inspired Within Sight. Thanks Ola, for having coffee with one of my heros

Even in Sweden, you are getting the best guests!

I just started listening to some As I Lay Dying stuff recently and hadn't seen any interviews with any of the guys in the band and wow Nick seems like the coolest guy, somebody who I would definitely click with! Can't wait to see who you have on next Ola,ROCK ON MAN and may the Brew be with you 🤘

Ola we need alexi laiho on here. I feel like he definitely doesnt get enough recognition for how good he is beyond Sweden, Norway ect

As I Lay Dying, wow !!!!!!!Great Coffee with Ola.

Dude, what a cool, positive guy. Great interview. Oh, and I agree with Nick about Crossroads. Whole movie was awesome.

Fuck…I didn’t even know you did a coffee with Nick :( so glad to find this video…too bad it was after nick left AILD…regardless…Nick was the reason i picked up a guitar. His leads…his effortless playing…and his down to earth attitude is just so awesome. I actually met the whole band back in 2009(10?) when and oceans between us came out…Nick and Phil and josh were the nicest and most humble guys ever. They talked with me for like 10 minutes and got pictures with them. Even though AILD doesn’t have the original members anymore…they will always be in my top 3 favorite bands that molded my playing and my influences.
