my vote is chris wolstenholme of muse. he has a good groove. his basslines show that he know his place in the band. he did a couple like 'hysteria' and 'butterflies & hurricanes' (featuring a bass-tapping intro) to prove he was a great player. he can do anything from a crazy shred bassline to a simple meoldy line.
so let's hear your nominees.
p.s.
don't vote for yourselves or friends from unsigned bands, just guys from big bands. also someone who came about in recent years. anyway, i'm looking forward to the feedback. |

Robert DeLeo IMO, he plays in a new rock band (Army of Anyone), although I'm a fan of his work in STP.

Remember Tool release an album every 5 years, heh.
Yeah, I was going to say Chris too. He's just a beast of a player with an excellent head and tone. I loves him  |

Just look at him. And then look at a drawing of Jesus. It's not a coincidence! |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: May 2006 Location: Somers, New York | | | Well, the title "best anything" is kind of meaningless, but my favorite today has to be Ryan Martinie, but Chris is pretty cool too.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: May 2006 Location: North Houston | | | Yeah I guess Justin Chancellor is pretty old. Kind of sad that is the best I can think of. How about the guy from Alien Ant Farm? Although I don't think they put an album out after the singer was injured/sick (?).

The only orig. members are the drummer and singer now.

Love his basslines!
What about Tim Commerford of Audioslave/RATM!
Most of his lines ares pretty intersting due to the style they use! |
