Shooting star - Gojira

Wind of change - The Scorpions

Here's another favourite of mine. Others may disagree (they're wrong) but I would say Matt Freeman of Rancid is the best bassist in punk rock. I highly recommend listening to And Out Come The Wolves by Rancid. The bass on every song is absolutely killer.

It is. I think it's a 4003S/5. He has a signature Rickenbacker which looks amazing and is a short scale 4 string.

Yes! Jeff is a monster. Also in Mutoid Man now as well.

Little sister - QOTSA

Billy Gould is one of the best. Never over plays, knows where to leave space and can play like a beast.

Found God in a tomato - Psychedelic porn crumpets

Girls on film - Duran Duran

A Forest - The Cure

Welcome to the jungle - Guns N Roses

Everyone knows Jamerson, JPJ, Sting, Wooton and Flea and could name a load of their songs but there's a whole load of incredible bassists who most people would never have heard of. I thought it would be interesting to hear some suggestions. My favourite is Al Cisneros of Sleep, Om and Shrinebuilder. I don't think any other heavy bassist is as creative or has as much groove. He can go from crushingly heavy riffs to Eastern inspired psyche grooves. His playing styles can be interesting, he often picks halfway up the neck and usually plays a Rickenbacker through pretty much any high gain amp and a selection of effects.

I'm a mechanical engineer. I dread meetings with non technical people. They always come up with some crazy idea and think it's 5 minutes work. Usually their idea involves breaking the laws of physics or completely redesigning six months work to save £50 on a couple metres of wires.

Surely you just tick a box and all these features just appear? 🤥

Prayer of the refugees - Anti Flag

For this evenings exercise it's Rival Schools. Excellent post hardcore band. https://youtu.be/DcRt7kkzcxM

It can. I chose to start fresh so I don't know how well it works
