00:00And it's upside-down because it's a little bit more antichrist, you know

00:04I've never tried this one Ortega, but it seems like it's good for for Mexican food, porti

00:10Some really really bad tequila

00:48Who's knocking, oh hey, it's digital tour bus, come on in

00:52Hi, I'm Niklas from Caratonia, I play bass

00:54We're now on the last Will and Testament tour together with Opeth, supporting them, our fellow Swede friends

01:01And we're here to support our new album Nightmares Extensions of the Waking State

01:08It's hard to say even for me, I've said it many times, but it's just a tongue twister

01:12Alright, so you might have seen me before, it was 14 years ago I think

01:16And now it's an updated version, updated myself with some beard

01:21And cut my hair off, so I pretty much cut my hair off and put it on here instead

01:26So, let's do this

01:28Alright, so we have a TV here, it's 80 inch I believe

01:32No, I'm just kidding, it's like, yeah, it's a standard TV

01:35We watch some movies, I think this morning there were some guys watching

01:40Big Trouble in Little China with Kurt Russell

01:42Great movie, classic

01:44Might be some Olympics as well

01:46But other than that, we might put some, you know, Swedish movies on

01:50Just to, you know, connect with our roots

01:54Being here, it's not all about meatballs and Kalle's Caviar

01:59The fish toothpaste that we put on our sandwiches

02:03We like to watch some Swedish movies as well

02:06Alright, so here you see the, you know, all the controls for the mothership

02:11That we need to have a successful tour

02:15Here's our lovely tour manager, Vicky

02:18All the necessities that she needs to, you know, make things run

02:22And make things work on a day-to-day basis

02:25So we have a printer for the settlers

02:27And all the things, all the magic and all the works that she does

02:30That keeps us floating, pretty much, you know, on a daily basis

02:35So here we have our kitchen

02:37And it's fully equipped with some freshly bought hot sauces

02:41I've never tried this one, Ortega

02:44But it seems like it's good for Mexican food, which we really like

02:48We eat tacos almost on a daily basis

02:51Like this very authentic taco place, Taco Bell

02:56We bought this today

02:57We had it on, what is it?

03:00Crunchwrap Supreme or something

03:02I think that's probably as far from authentic Mexican food as you can come

03:08But we like it

03:09And also I found this

03:11It's one of my favorite YouTube shows

03:13Hot ones

03:15And, yeah

03:17And also some...

03:20Tortilla

03:20Some really bad, really bad and basic low budget tequila

03:27I think I scored it for like 20 bucks in Pittsburgh

03:30Which I think is a steal

03:32It does the trick

03:33We had a few margaritas done with that

03:36With a cheap margarita mixer as well

03:39Because we're pretty basic guys

03:41We like that sort of stuff, you know

03:45And here's our beloved coffee maker

03:49We're out of capsules at the moment

03:52So we're gonna go and purchase some of those

03:55Because we are from Sweden

03:57And we're one of the nations that drinks most coffee in the world

04:00I guess

04:00So we need those kind of things to survive

04:04This is important

04:05Something that I always buy when I'm on a US run

04:08Because I love mac and cheese

04:11It's...

04:13It's these kind of bad boys

04:16Swift Mac

04:17I tried one earlier today as you can see

04:20So I was fully satisfied within 10 minutes

04:24And we have the craft dinner as well

04:27Which is the, I guess, original

04:29The one that Annihilator is singing about

04:31And playing about, you know

04:34And, yeah

04:35We have the fridges

04:38A little bit hard to open

04:40We have these kind of things

04:42Just to keep our stomachs in check everyday

04:44You know, some probiotic stuff

04:49Bought this

04:49I think it's a sports drink from the States

04:53Something that keeps you going

04:55And all the, like, necessities

04:57Some, some milk and some

04:59Oh yeah

05:00This is also something that we enjoy on a daily basis

05:04It's cocoa water

05:05Like coconut water

05:07And we do all believe it smells

05:10And tastes a little bit like stale cornflakes

05:13Which is fantastic

05:15Who doesn't love that, you know

05:16Keeps us in check

05:17And keeps us rejuvenated

05:19And hydrated

05:20Very, very important

05:22And here's fridge number two

05:24Maybe a little bit more exciting

05:26We have some

05:28Some lager beer

05:30We have some sparkling wine

05:33Most often

05:35But, but I think I had it all yesterday

05:37I'm a naughty boy

05:38And

05:40And here we have some

05:42Yogurt

05:43It's for Henrik

05:44Who fills in for Nico

05:45On this run

05:46Because he couldn't make it

05:47And he loves yogurt

05:49With misli

05:50That's his jam

05:51So the rider

05:52Of course we have

05:53Water on the rider

05:55Which is a little bit boring

05:56But a necessity

05:58We have the yogurt

05:59We have misli

06:00We have

06:01We have the coconut water

06:03That I showed

06:05And

06:05What more

06:07Yeah

06:07The probiotics

06:09Beer

06:10Sparkling

06:11Sparkling wine

06:12Red wine

06:13White wine

06:14All that

06:15Kind of

06:15Fun stuff

06:16So all the

06:18All the things

06:18That you need

06:19For a

06:20Daily success

06:21On the tour

06:22Alright

06:23So last but not least

06:24Here's the bathroom

06:26In the front lounge

06:27The glorious place

06:29Where we all relieve ourselves

06:31Hey

06:32Hey

06:33Hey

06:33Oh

06:35Who the hell is that

06:36Oh

06:37Weird

06:38It happens sometimes

06:39Alright here it is

06:40As you can see

06:42We have a shower

06:43There's mostly storage for

06:46Merch

06:47I think

06:47Beer

06:48And

06:49More water

06:50The bathroom rule is

06:51That if you have

06:52Five hundred dollars to spare

06:54You can shit as much as you want

06:55But we don't

06:56So

06:56We stay away from that shit

06:58You know

06:59No shitting on the toilet

07:01Only pee pee

07:02Alright

07:02So I showed you the front lounge now

07:04So let's head back in

07:06And go through the bunk area

07:16Since there's quite some flat talents

07:19On a tour bus

07:20We hang this one

07:21And it's upside down

07:23Because it's a little bit more

07:24Antichrist

07:26You know

07:26So twelve bunks

07:27In total

07:28We kind of have a junk bunk

07:30It's a little bit like

07:31Split between the driver

07:33And just putting a few items up there

07:36But usually we try to find

07:38You know

07:39Our small crevices everywhere on the bus

07:41For our private stuff

07:43So we can keep the beds

07:46You know

07:46Free of items

07:47And all that stuff

07:48I can show you how a bunk looks like

07:50It's my bunk

07:51Because of private reasons

07:52Because no one else is in there

07:54You know

07:56So this is how it looks like

07:59Hey!

08:00No!

08:01No!

08:02Not even my bunk

08:04Who the hell

08:05Who the hell is it doing?

08:06Again

08:06Twin brother

08:08Whoa

08:09Damn

08:09Right so this is my domain

08:11We have some crucial stuff

08:13Like earplugs

08:15Because it can get a bit loud

08:16And it keeps me sleeping

08:18And also some

08:20Melatonin

08:21Gummies

08:22Strawberry flavor

08:23Because

08:24That's a nice flavor

08:26I like it in jam as well

08:28And

08:30Some of these

08:31Not really necessary

08:33Because I don't have much hair

08:35But sometimes I like to

08:36You know

08:37Keep it up in a man bun

08:39To look douchey

08:40I guess

08:41And

08:43Some Marshall

08:44Like

08:46Noise canceling

08:47Headphones

08:48It's good

08:48When you

08:49Want to just relax

08:50After a long day

08:52So that's

08:53That's pretty much it

08:54So that's

08:55My little

08:56My little

08:57Private space

08:58On this run

08:59Alright

09:00So this is the bunk area

09:02We've finished that part

09:03So let's go into the back lounge

09:12So here's some couch spaces

09:15There's a telephone there

09:17If you want to call the driver

09:19Because he's really nice

09:20He's really nice

09:21He always enjoys talking with us

09:23Can't get enough of that

09:25So

09:25And here's

09:27Oh

09:28You again

09:30How did he get in

09:31Hey

09:34Always like this

09:35When we film for

09:36Digital tour bus

09:37Isn't it

09:38Yeah

09:39Just

09:41Some more

09:42Seating area

09:42We usually sit here

09:43After the shows

09:45When we come back

09:46To the bus

09:47Just to chill

09:48And

09:49Yeah

09:50Just hang out

09:51Talk stuff

09:52You know

09:53Both the band and the crew

09:54Because we

09:55We like to hang out

09:56With each other

09:57And

09:57Yeah

09:58So like the major difference

09:59Between this and the front lounge

10:01Is that

10:01Maybe like

10:02We in the band

10:03We use this a little bit more

10:04Than

10:05Than the crew

10:05But we do mix

10:07All the time

10:08You know

10:09And

10:10And yeah

10:11There's no like

10:12No real like

10:14Important business

10:15Going on in here

10:16It's just about leisure

10:17And you know

10:18Taking it easy

10:19After the shows

10:20We have some hanging area

10:21Here

10:22I can show you mine

10:23It's very

10:25Nothing to see really

10:26But

10:27We have some

10:28We have a coat here

10:29But I just chugged in

10:31Because I'm lazy

10:32You have my camera gear here

10:34Which I

10:35Haven't really gotten out

10:36To film yet

10:37But

10:38Soon I will

10:39And

10:40Yeah

10:41We've got another TV

10:43Here

10:44Which conveniently

10:45Has some

10:46HDMI

10:46So we can

10:47We can plug it

10:49Into our laptops

10:50And

10:51And

10:52Watch movies

10:52That way
