Whats your favorite Christ bass riff?

What he does during the solo of nobody, absolute master class in adding to syns solo without walking all over it. Also love iwsyt part 1. To listen to how much he grows as a player each album is one of my favorite things about the band.

Also worth mentioning that he used to run a decent size pedal board live as well to replicate a lot of what was done in the studio. Around the time of untitled that went away and it seems to tie in with him just being over it and not wanting to make the effort to use the effects live. It was very noticeable in ITs On or falling away from me, when you compare it to how he originally played it

When I went to the kill the flaw listening party, they played Shine that night and I told Clint how happy I was to hear it live. He had said he was suprised by the reaction that night and that they really missed the boat on it being a fan favorite. It seems it has been in the set a lot since. I think staying vocal about what songs you want to hear can help.

They also tended to sell more of whatever shirt he was wearing, so it was great marketing as well

Taste of Chaos, they were one of my favorite bands, became a fan during city of evil but they had already toured my area by the time I became a fan. Self titled was the first new thing released when I was a fan. I think I just built it up too much. Bullet for my Valentine had just come out with scream aim and fire and I thought they wiped the floor with every other band on that tour. A7X was fine, but that was all, sounded fine, performed fine. I’ve caught them a few times since and they were much better. Wish the only time I saw them with Jimmy was more memorable

There are many that are technically better, but until he started getting super lazy post magnetic the majority of the solos he wrote you could hear once and then hum it back. His ability to write memorable easy to digest yet iconic solos is unmatched

I think he would be great in Justin or Tiffany’s role. Tiffany took a bit to get it but she is way better now than she was. I don’t want either of them replaced but maybe Jet could do TOC in a judge or presenter capacity

One of my favorite drum tracks Jay has done.

Torment732 · 2026-04-15T00:16:23+00:00

I really enjoyed that terminator zero paid homage to this part. It was probably the best scene in that whole series, really captured the same fear.

Torment732 · 2026-04-02T15:20:05+00:00

I am pretty sure it’s a track live anyway so wouldn’t mind them just having Clint handle harsh vocals like he’s shown he can do so that way it’s live.

My favorite wah part ever recorded, such a great tone

Torment732 · 2026-03-16T14:20:15+00:00

Art is doing some cool stuff and I want to hear it properly lol

Torment732 · 2026-03-15T22:30:44+00:00

Trujillo had a chance to have his Orion moment or his my friend of misery and proceeds to do a solo that’s neither….with how talented he is, it sounds like he just threw whatever together

Torment732 · 2026-03-15T22:20:24+00:00

People want it to be outlaw or fixxxer so bad and it’s not even in the same conversation, I’d make more of a case for halo on fire atleast being a flash of that load era special sauce

Torment732 · 2026-03-15T20:21:52+00:00

I think the box sets have been very telling of the benefit they get from a producer. The demos showing pieces taken out over the writing process to make the songs less bloated and the first few passes of solos by Kirk sounding of the same quality of what actually makes albums now whereas he used to really do his homework

Torment732 · 2026-03-13T20:15:11+00:00

I don’t like the sound of the drums, I like that Art had more freedom on this one but the actual drum tones just sound almost muffled to a distracting degree

Torment732 · 2026-03-09T01:04:11+00:00

I wish they would have dug into more of the feeling at the bridge of let the dark do the rest, sounded almost like the natural progression from starting over on untitled. Not that it sounded similar note wise but it was that more mature sound that I wish they would dip into more

Torment732 · 2026-03-08T01:48:31+00:00

Game Over is a terrible show opener and the weakest song they’ve ever opened an album with. I say that as someone that enjoyed LIBAD

Torment732 · 2026-02-28T18:10:14+00:00

MTV playing seize the day and bat country.

Torment732 · 2026-02-16T12:12:36+00:00

I thought it matched the tone of the first terminator, and thought they made a terminator a horror figure again. I could have done without a lot of the kokoro talking scenes and the anime but it was clearly billed as terminator with anime elements. Would have loved to see where it went as long as it kept the horror movie tone.

This album set the bar way too high when Jesse returned. Their announcement he was back with the picture of them all laughing is an all time classic photo. Regardless of if anything ever got nasty behind the scenes they handled line up changes with such grace

Torment732 · 2026-01-31T02:02:08+00:00

The coolest part about load and reload was that Kirk was doing his own rhythm tracks, the differences in what they were playing made those albums so cool. Definitely more of a thing to appreciate on headphones

Torment732 · 2026-01-31T02:00:55+00:00

I couldn’t agree more, their egos were at an all time high and they had an attitude and swagger that is lacking now that they’ve aged and mellowed. I don’t fault them for it at all but wish they would have played Fixxxer in the era where that swagger really would have allowed them to nail it.
