We all know about the metal bassists that laid the foundation in this genre. But who are the bassists that just kick butt in the metal bands that are out right now? I would like to give a listen to them if you have recommendations.

A few years old granted, but the guy has incredible precision and such a heavy tone ( God bless Spector ). Anyone who could keep up with Dimebag deserves serious attention.

Yeah. And that fellow above^. Not cool in the least. Sorry.  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
