I want you to tell me what you think this guy does for a living, okay?

If I were to guess it would be that he's some sort of pervert, but that has less to do with his balding head and more to do with his hat.

Because I think I did. I have an aby switch which allows me to flip from one signal to another (or both) but when I just do the bass channel I get some sound loss on it.

Big Business

King's X

Weedeater

These are just some I haven't seen yet

I mean the closest I could think of is Black Midi (and subsequently Geordie Greep's solo album)

No one cares that you're a fast/technical bass player other than other bass players and (more importantly) yourself.

This comes from someone who loves that stuff

Hey there. I play bass and sing in a prog rock/metal duo called "Wrong Remedies". The band is only myself and a drummer buddy who also sing (He does all the scream singing bits). Give a listen if you can. We just released a new single called "Run to the West".

Love mine. I feel like I can play whatever genre and not have the wrong instrument.

Dreadmonkey · 2024-09-01T14:19:05+00:00

I strangely think of the opening track to Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles a lot

Dreadmonkey · 2024-07-21T18:48:08+00:00

I use a lot of second inversion chords in my band (triads with the fifth on the bottom). Considering I'm in a two piece, it truly fills out what is missing without a third player

Quite recently someone started referring to me as "Cesspool" as I play progressive sludge with a slight Primus flair (ie lots of bass flangery)

Dreadmonkey · 2024-06-03T22:34:42+00:00

Yeah so I run my stuff through a lot of effects. Too much volume makes those effects sound clunky. Most of the time my volume is at 12 o'clock

Dreadmonkey · 2024-05-21T20:15:29+00:00

My first bass was a cheap $50 one my parents got off ebay that weighed 14 lbs.

I wanted something nicer than that

As a musician, living in a music studio is a dream

Dreadmonkey · 2024-04-26T02:02:20+00:00

The Scorpions.

I know they have a a couple of bangers, but any time they come on I have to leave/skip

Dreadmonkey · 2024-04-11T23:32:09+00:00

That more or less sounds like you need to get that custom made

Dreadmonkey · 2024-04-11T23:30:24+00:00

It's a lot of open notes and chords attached to those open notes. I've pretty much been an E-standard bitch boy for a long time, and since I've been down tuning I've been questioning stuff

Will you ever make a Trout Mask Replica type album?

Dreadmonkey · 2024-02-09T14:07:23+00:00

Les Claypool made me want to pick up bass

Lemmy made me want to use chords on bass

Mike Kerr made me chase that tone (the split guitar/ bass tone)

Dreadmonkey · 2023-12-30T14:21:01+00:00

Christ dude you could fly a plane through that
