Best "Stoner Rock" bass solo

Sign in to disble this ad
I did a quick search on this and didn't see any recent.

Not to be cliche, but I'd have to say Supa Scoopa And Mighty Scoop for sure.

I do love Supa Scoopa. The outro to Dragonaut is pretty nice too.

"So Come On" by The Atomic Bitchwax.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlX0Q9vSDbY

There's a lot of Cisneros riffs that I wouldn't necessarily consider solos but are just downright cool regardless.

"My Grain" by Corrosion of Conformity (Actually, Mike Dean's a pretty badass bassist all around)

Atomic Bitchwax is such a tight band, their riffs bounce all over the place. I guess I don't know many bass solos in Stoner Rock, so I'll say Green Machine by Kyuss, to get that obvious one out of the way.

ACTUALLY, I totally forgot about the bass intro to this Los Natas song

Killer tune.

Not a solo exactly, but the opening riff to Me And The Devil Blues by Dead Meadow is awesome.

Man, maybe not stoner rock but surely stoned-- anything Tim Bogert plays on the first Vanilla Fudge record.

And +10 to whoever said Mike from COC.

Off the CoC live album Mike's solo on Clean my Wounds is pretty badass.

Kinda old stoner rock, kinda prog:

Utopia's "Ra" album features an 18 min fairy tale song "Singring and the Glass Guitar" which features a solo by Kasim Sulton.
Each member takes a solo as part of the episodic journey.

No bass solos that stuck out to me, but I just discovered Ufomammut. And they rule.

Yes. Yes they do. Incredibly so. I think the opening bass riff to Hopscotch might be the heaviest two notes I've ever heard.

I can't really think of a stoner bass solo that sticks out of me, usually when I think "solo" and "stoner" I just go to Colour Haze and listen to one of Stefan's 18+ minute works of fretboard melting genius.

EDIT: "sticks out of me" wow.

I think the fudge count! I mean, Blue Cheer certainly count, so why not the Fudge?

And since Stoner Rock is just this millenium's repackaged heavy psych rock, I'll nominate the bass solo from "Suicide" by Dust (Kenny Aaronson)
