Sunburn - Muse

Do you think people who only have fretted basses might see the title of this thread and think "well that's not for me, I'll move on" and then give you a result which is quite inaccurate?

The offspring and her band have been in t'studio. I can't believe this was written by 17 year old kids. https://on.soundcloud.com/V37Y0fuSwYXSnst9Kv The cover artwork was by the singer/guitarist. Not the AI art that seems to be standard now

Holy cow, £30 for a little bit of moulded plastic

That's the one. Thanks

I'm looking for a thumb rest that shares the pick guard screw holes. I know they exist, I've seen them but now I can't find them for sale. Anyone got a link to them?

You get a lot for your money with Peavey, mostly because everyone has forgotten that they exist and don't look for them.

New music by post rock band, We Lost The Sea. Brilliant new album.

Next Glastonbury will be Coldplay playing 12 sets each day on each of the 5 main stages.

I watched GB News once out of curiosity. It was exhausting keeping up with the outrage and depressing listening to them talk about how terrible life in Britain is (and they claim to be patriotic!) And then they got in to talking about how handsome and wonderful their mate Nigel is. They're politically unbiased you know? They said so many times and they wouldn't lie would they?

Maybe it's time for Channel 4 to take it on again. I think there's too much political influence in the BBC for it to work with them.

The BBC have said in a statement that they won't broadcast "high risk" bands in the future. So that'll be no interesting bands then. Maybe it's time for the BBC to let another broadcaster take it on, one who won't choose which lyrics might be too upsetting for us.

I just sorted through the tickets for upcoming shows and it's quite a lot. New Model Army Skindred Discharge / Conflict Airborne Svalbard Blood Incantation Arctangent Festival (Karnivool, Godspeed You Black Emperors, Melvins, Kylesa Tesseract, etc)

Dried on blood would be more authentic in my case.

I just bought a very nice carbon, full suspension mountain bike. Mrs XFR is not yet aware of this purchase. I may use her new clothes line of "this old thing? I've had this for years"

What was this bass Georgia South is playing here?

Suicidal were thrash / hardcore crossover so a bit of both.

Their bass sounded pretty decent to me.

The only one I watched which didn't sound good was Nova Twins. No bass at all

The biggest, greatest thing in metal is never the best. The most amazing bands will always be on the fringes doing something original that most people will never listen to.

They were excellent. I saw them about 15 years ago and it looks like they've lost none of their energy. I'd take being their guitar tech over being Matt Pikes, scraping the gut sweat of his guitars every night.

They never used to bother me but I always avoided the Pyramid stage which is located in front of a hill so they probably are more of a distraction there.

Please don't bring Maroon 5 in to this. They really are the absolute worst. I'd honestly rather listen to Imagine Dragons or Kid Rock and I'd rather eat a fresh dog egg than listen to either of them.

Marketing innit? The BBC sell the coverage to networks all over the world. The more views they can generate, the more they can charge for it.

Just watching Prodigy. Holy crap they put on a hell of a show. Nice blend of electronic and traditional instruments. Their drummer has serious energy.
