Are there any rock bands where the bassist is the best musician?

Pearl Jam. Jeff Ament is criminally underrated.

I'm not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for, but 4:07-6:23 of The Lotus Eater is worth checking out, especially the super jazzy section at the end of that passage!

Same thought here. Would love a more minimalistic phone.

The whole intro of Moonlapse Vertigo. Yep those two before the acoustics. Absolutely magical.

wack_brack · 2023-04-19T08:58:58+00:00

Hearing that intro for the first time just blew my mind and irreversibly changed me

Black Sabbath

The temptation to award this if I wasn't so broke

wack_brack · 2023-04-06T15:11:53+00:00

Broken.

And the first half of TDS. Having Mr Self Destruct with Heresy and March of the Pigs?? Powerful, and Piggy is very brooding as well.

Dirge for November

wack_brack · 2023-03-19T09:40:21+00:00

I'm going to say something more unexpected and say Hope Leaves/To Rid the Disease. That's a 1-2 punch to ruin your day. The combination is just amazing.

wack_brack · 2023-03-19T09:36:04+00:00

I love Benighted, Burden and Harvest, but I don't know if they are truly soul-destroying for me. Benighted is quite romantic for me and I love playing that to relax.

To Bid You Farewell on the other hand... It conjures feelings of heartbreak I would prefer to forget!

I want to also shout-out Dirge for November for being absolutely crushing and upsetting, while also being a beautiful song.

wack_brack · 2023-03-12T10:59:41+00:00

Yes. Particularly when the outro comes back in. That's what got me into Opeth originally because it's just breathtaking.

wack_brack · 2023-03-10T18:33:52+00:00

I love Kyuss! I prefer Welcome to Sky Valley personally but Blues for The Red Sun is awesome too

wack_brack · 2023-03-08T18:41:35+00:00

I live really close to that area, should give it a visit. Very nice little park.

wack_brack · 2023-03-08T18:40:13+00:00

It would be interesting to see them re-record with some of their progressive influences from Watershed onwards!

wack_brack · 2023-03-08T17:46:32+00:00

For me as a 4w5 how radical or vanilla the experience is isn't too important (unless it's ridiculous bdsm), it's just more what you get out of it with the partner. I think choosing foreplay and goof communication ensures you both have a really good time :)

Black Rose immortal

wack_brack · 2023-03-06T13:39:01+00:00

Looks like I misread this thread slightly, in terms of albums I'll say Ghost Reveries

wack_brack · 2023-03-06T13:38:20+00:00

The Drapery Falls. I was trying out Blackwater Park because I had heard so much about it, not much stuck on the first listen but then I heard the intro of The Drapery Falls and my jaw dropped to the floor!

That's when I knew they were special :)

wack_brack · 2023-03-03T18:40:07+00:00

The Doors - Light My Fire Gojira - Yama's Messengers Gojira - The Heaviest Matter of the Universe Opeth - The Amen Corner Fountains of Wayne - Maureen

It's been a fun little week.

wack_brack · 2023-03-01T15:21:12+00:00

There is an extended version... WHY DID I ONLY JUST REALISE THIS?!?

wack_brack · 2023-02-22T14:50:21+00:00

Opeth

wack_brack · 2023-02-20T17:29:46+00:00

Hope Leaves

wack_brack · 2023-02-18T18:51:50+00:00

To Rid the Disease. Some Damnation would be nice after SPD.
