There's some pretty good modern bands out there like silversun pickups, kings of leon, muse, etc. But chris wholstenholme of muse is the only modern bassist i've heard that impressed me Any one know any talented modern bassists out there?

I think Nikki from the SSPU's has some really cool things going on. she's not blistering fast or technical, but she writes a DAMM groovy bassline. Her tone is the best too

SSPUs are definitely the best band going, IMO. Here's hoping THE MAN doesnt ruin them
