I'm after some links (myspace,purevolume..etc) of songs containing a bass part with the fulltone bassdrive. I am yet to hear a clip of this pedal within a band context. AND I WANT TOO! |

The bass player from Foo fighters uses it as his overdrive. I don't know any specific songs, but my guess is that if it is a newer song with overdrive, it is coming from the bassdrive. |

If he's had it as long as I think he has, you'll hear it on a few songs from Panopticon, as well as In the Absence of Truth.

I can hear it in trepanning especially around 2:15, he uses it in off to ruin as well.

Off the top of my head... "Grinning Mouths", from Panopticon: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-x7Ez7yCyA8
Enjoy. 
He ends up using more than the Bassdrive towards the end of the song, though. I believe that ambience is from his Boss PS-3.

It's one of those things I've remained keenly aware of... everyone talks about how great it is, and some even provide solo clips... but nothing says "this pedal truly rocks" like proving how well it works in a band context.

A few great examples are Cosmopolitan Blood Loss (through most of the song, that rough grindy tone), as well as Ape Dos Mil (in the chorus, in use with his Morley), just to name two better known, fairly accessible examples. It appears all over the place on the albums.

I do know he uses the Overdrive on Cheer Up Boys, if you listen to it it has a very driven feel to the p-bass
