Mark James Klepaski (breaking benjamin)

I don't know if anyone has noticed but i was listening to some Breaking Benjamin and realized they have some pretty sick bass riffs as a counter melody to the main riff. I checked the forum and saw there was nothing dedicated to Mark James Klepaski so i decided to start one.
If you listen to songs like "So Cold" or "The Diary of Jane" you can hear the bass lines pretty well. He even plays slap in "Breakdown", and if you listen to "anthem of the angels" you can hear a nice tone comming out of his sterling which he uses since they recorded "Dear Agony". I just figured hes a pretty good bassist and should be recognized.

Mark is awesome. BB is one of my favorite bands easily and we play a similar style of music (just not as good!)

But yeah he is always very audible in their dense mixes with great tone and really interesting stuff. I've learned a lot of it over the years and we'll throw in a BB cover from time to time.
