Although I play in a thrash metal band (with fingers), I don't know much about it and thrash bassists, but I'm sure these guys do it.

They're out there, it's not that hard honestly you just need to spend some time with it.

Christian Giesler - Kreator | Way to nit pick..  Even death metal has many of the same qualities that thrash does when it comes to bass playing techniques.

I personally dislike when I ask about something and then get answers that doesnt answer it. Like when I was looking for good folk music and specifically defined it as that I was not looking for neofolk or martial folk. What did I get? A huge list of neofolk bands. Gah.... |
