It was a pleasure my friend, next time we upgrade from water with Ola to the classic coffee version 😂

Hi Geralt :) I thought AttwS was in E, maybe the only song that isn't E flat, right? Thanks!

Imaginations from the other Side is a Masterpiece, a must have Metal Album in every collection

And so is Nightfall in Middle Earth.

Thank you for having one of my childhood heroes there, Ola!

used to have our practice room next to Blind Guardian (in Krefeld, Germany) in the 1990s 😎

Man, that would be disheartening to be next to them hearing them write some of the best music ever and you're just like, how the hell do I even compete with that?!? Could you hear them writing those classic albums I'm guessing?

That is amazing!!! 😮

I see Marcus, I press like

Love Blind Guardian since teenage years. Gr8 original non generic stuff. Thanks Ola

He speaks the same way he plays, very intelligent and eloquent. When I listen to him play I get the feeling there’s nothing he can’t do. An absolute master…

Marcus is one of my heroes. One of the most nostalgic and great experiences was seeing Blind Guardian live. Amazing band live

Holy shit! been a fan for ages since I first listened to "Imaginations from the other side", got to meet the band in 2002 and they signed my "Somewhere far beyond" CD

Marcus was (and still is) my childhood hero,and the biggest reason why I started playing guitar. Still one of my biggest influences,especialy for rhythm playing! I can say I made my way through music scene/industry in my country,and somehow I feel that I owe that to him.

Not only one of the greatest guitarists, but -based on interviews and rumours, I've never met him- one of the nicest and most decent people ever. Thank you, Ola, for bringing in such a legend!

The man, the myth, the legend, Geralt de Rivia. One of my all time heros, Marcus Siepen. What a great conversation. Congratulations and thank you, Ola.🤘

A German and a Swede are impressed by Japanese efficiency, that says something!🙂Another super interview Ola!👍❤

Blind Guardian been one of my favorites since I was 12 soon as I heard vahalla it was over🤘🏻seeing them in May for the first time

Same! May 3rd for me

one of the first bands i discovered on my own in metal. 24 years ago or so. my comfort music. this was stellar

Huge Blind Guardian fan here, this interview kicked some serious ass. Marcus and Andre are awesome!

Blind Guardian are such a unique band, so happy that you got Marcus for a video.

The album "imaginations from the other side " changed my life forever. Metalhead since then. Thank you Ola, Thank you mr. Siepen !

Just saw BG last night in Maryland, killer show! He played that beautiful green Solar guitar for the whole set.

Thanks for this wonderful interview! It is really nice to see such a relaxed interview without the normal top 10 questions but rather a conversation between two people with mutual interests. Saw them in Gothenburg and the concert was amazing. Marcus looked like Geralt of Rivia from the Witcher 🙂

Saw BG in Glasgow recently. Absolutely amazing. Everyone should try to see them. One of the best bands around

One of my childhood heroes, what a pleasure seeing you in the same room!

Someone far beyond humble. Such a great guy. The show in Sittard for the Somewhere far beyond cycle was one of the greatest moments in my life... birth of my kids, then this show in the tiny venue just around the corner of Hansi's house haha

This is SO cool, to see my mate Marcus with my favorite youtuber Ola in my favourite format! Thanks for this awesome video, Ola!

Finally got to watch this interview and I smiled the entire time. Great job Ola! The Guitar he helped design with Solar is one of the most beautiful and impressive guitars I have ever seen. I love the no Push pull, the design and color immediately trigger a deep fantasy feel. Hope you are recovering swiftly from the surgery and in zero pain sir. Chug on 🤘🧡🔥🧡🤘

The gig at Fryshuset was totally amazing. This interview was a real treat.

WHOA! 2 guitarists of my favorite bands, Blind Guardian and THE HAUNTED. I've seen them live and own their entire catalogs. And I don't live in Europe, BTW, I live in The States.

Blind Guardian and Maiden are the best heavy Metal bands to me, BG still got better new albums thought, Ansi still got an amazing voice !! Great Band and Music !

The fact Marcus plays professor Layton warms my heart!!!

Marcus, what a nice guy and an underrated player. Great interview as usual ❤

Dude is so humble and genuine!

Markus is a freaking legend. :)))

Yeah, Finally! One of my favourtes guitar players from one of my favourites band. I love it! Thank you both guys!

Marcus is an absolute legend!👍

So stoked to see this. BG is one of the best bands EVER. I cannot wait to see them again when they come to Harrisburg, PA.

Just wanted to say that teaching their version of Uriah Heep's song The Wizard to people that wants to learn guitar is a great gateway to the magic of playing guitar. It has all the "cheats, tricks, chips and tips" of how the fret operates (to a novice. There's more to it I know). And Blind Guardian, oh man, for a band that big, it's sort of weird so few metal fans have listened to them. Sure, they have their ups and downs, but they have remained as consistent as Maiden, Sabbath and Priest over the years, and have existed for almost as long. If you like NWOBHM, but haven't heard Blind Guardian yet, I sort of envy you. Hansi is a unique voice in metal, and the guitars are also unique. Simple, straight to the point, but not without the magic of metal.

Man, long waited for this. Have a new favorite KZread video ever now. Thanks Ola for having Marcus with you.❤❤

Saw Blind Guardian last year at the Hyde Park in Osnabrück! Great show! Was hoping to see this Coffee with Ola! Really cool content, Ola! ❤

Great episode and Marcus is such a nice dude !

great interview, really flew by, also beautiful guitar it's the last thing I need, but the first thing I want 😉

Another great Coffee with Ola! Marcus is such a legend and this Solar looks amazing!

Marcus is so eloquent. Always nice to see him talking.

Such a pretty guitar!

Super nice guy and one helluva guitarist. Great interview Ola.🤘🏻😎

This Will Never End! 🤘

This will be the first new Solar I buy, and the first evertune guitar. A must have!

"Imaginations From The Other Side" was my entrance into BG and i was a big fan for quite some time. I still follow a bit, what they are doing. They were really nice when my buddies and i met them on the "Guardian X-mas Tour" in 1996, i believe, with Yngwie Malmsteen, Skyclad and Rage. It was their stop in Kiel and we were talking a bit, especially to Marcus. He invited us to come with them in the bus to the next stop, which was Hannover. And we idiots refused, because we had our obligations, the next day...😂🙈

Wow that guitar!!! ❤️

Blind Guardian is such an amazingly talented band. I saw them open for Symphony X years ago and was mesmerized by their atmosphere and how huge they sounded. I'm also convinced that I could've been their bass player........ if they had any clue who I even am. 😆

Blind Guardian together with Rhapsody of Fire is the reason why I'm into metal. To me the Bards are gods, so like came almost right after reading the title. Marcus is the GOAT.

Love these conversations Ola, keep up the good work my friend 😊

What a surprise! I was listening Blind Guardian five minutes ago. And I was watching Ola's video one hour ago. Now you're both in one video. I summoned this event by my actions. Damn I'm good!

can't wait to see Blind Guardians in Montreal next month on the 10th !!

Fantastic ❤ Imaginations from the other side was the album that got me into metal back in the days.

What a legend! Also a nice guy too. Really cool interview!

That was awesome, thanks Ola for another great interview.

great interview, bummer about the mic cuttin out. that guitar is fantastic. hopefully y'all get an artist series version of that on your store.

Great as usual! Marcus is such a nice guy! And hes almost Brazilian haha, dope! One thing that i noticed, his voice tone is really close to helloween´s Weikath.

So wild to see such a lord of guitar casually talk about the mechanics of being so badass. Brilliant.

Great coffee with Ola! And that guitar is just ♥♥♥

Great episode! :D Playing early like in Japan seems awesome. Im quite sick of playing past midnight shows. The earlier the better. If you have show the day after, you need good rest, but with super late shows, it's almost impossible!

Just saw them live yesterday and, my god, what a show. These dudes are absolute beasts from another dimension.

What a legend!

Man.. I saw him in Brasília. Very inspiring!

Thanks for this, Ola and Marcus, such an amazing interview! Blind Guardian is one of my greatest influences and Solar Guitars is my favorite guitar brand. Legends! Also loves the Dark Souls shirt!

Coffee with Jesper Stromblad!

so great. As a fan of Blind Guardian, a very cool itw again, thanks !!!

I was waiting for this. Thanks for this interview.

"The last thing I need is another guitar. The first thing I want is another guitar." This is me, but with effects pedals. GAS is a real thing.

Blind Guardian rules!

I apparently can't type but I still loved this interview!

Loved this ineterview!

I was late to the Blind Guardian game so only first heard them when they released A Night At The Opera and it blew my mind! Still not a big power metal fan but BG has always been just a cut above all the rest... killer band!

Sheeeee it’s Marcus!!!!

I remember back in the days when I had to import SFB here in Sweden. Saw them in Uppsala for like 100 people. When we played support for them in Trädgårdn in Gothenburg 25 years later and had dinner with them i didnt dare to be a fanboy. 😂 But still SFB had such a big impact on me.

Thanks ola🎉

I discovered metal thanks to BG, I've seen them so many times! Marcus seems to be so cool. It maked me so happy to see him on the channel.

Awesome show and a beautiful guitar 🤘🏻

Great interview, love the tech talk 🎶

Marcus is the MAN! Awesome coffee with Ola!

Hey Ray! I am totally with you when it comes to everyday repeatable Tone, especially for your Kind of music. I just think that some music lives from the earthshattering tone that you get from an tube or big transistor amplifier like Doom and other post metal stuff. Thanks for the content! 💪

Everyones first metal band

super good looking guitar!!

That guitar is stunning

I was turned on too blind guardian from a video game called "sacred" they had a quest line too find different "weapons" for a blind guy. Anyway once completed you got a cut scene an the song was "this is sacred" an honestly it was pretty damn epic.

Holy shit i need this new model !

What a beautiful guitar! ❤

Thanks ola for bringing one of my favourite guitar player to the show :) such a nice guy :)

QC Silver Jubilee model FTW :-)

I put a little switch between the knobs for change the voice of my solar 😅😅 it works really well

14:30 THIS!!! Very important for musicians. This art is lost today.

Coffee... Or water, with the Witcher 👀

Nice!!! Really cool interview!

What a cool guy, and great interview.

The best BARD!

That guitar looks super great!😍

So freaking cool

Super cool 🎉

Now Andre Olbrich too, please! Blind Guardian are such an inspiration to me, cheers everyone ✌🏼🇲🇽
