    Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

    Don't worry man, I know I'm not in danger of being judged (or at least not too harshly) here. Your Mastodon love comes across in the Supervoid album so I can see why it'd dismay you when they changed their sound. For me the problem with the track you linked is that it just sounds so lacklustre...

    Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

    Got to be honest, even though I've seen it take some flack on here, I liked The Hunter. It was definitely a different direction from their previous stuff but that was fine, every band has to change at some point. That was pretty painful though. For a while I thought it might be going somewhere...

    Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

    The first time I played live we did 3 covers and an original and no-one noticed I missed the first bar of the chorus in the original twice, despite us recording the event and everyone watching it back together. Kind of a relief but also makes me wonder how much attention people were paying to...

    Stoner/Doom Bassists 89: Father's Missing Voodoo

    Well I'm glad I cracked you up atleast. I was trying to stay out of this because my tangent has degraded this thread more than it deserved but knowing we can trust in you makes the whole thing much more awesomer ;)

    Stoner/Doom Bassists 89: Father's Missing Voodoo

    Yeah I felt we might have a difference in scale. 70 million people and basically all of us live within that San Fran to LA distance. At least we've had time to come up with fancy names for where we come from I guess. Also you guys seen you should be getting a wizard tour before the end of the...

    Stoner/Doom Bassists 89: Father's Missing Voodoo

    Didn't someone mention stickiness ironically in terms of the P/W thread? Obviously a religious mod only understands thing literally (allegory, what's that?) and made this thread a sticky. Only explanation I can think of.

    Stoner/Doom Bassists 89: Father's Missing Voodoo

    Conan are from Manchester (I have a horrible feeling they're actually Liverpudlian which is a massive faux pas) but it isn't really from London. I am seeing them in the Summer though. They did a tour with Bast recently which I was apparently amazing but I couldn't get there. If you're talking...

    Stoner/Doom Bassists 89: Father's Missing Voodoo

    This sounds like a good sort of show. I imagine it wouldn't translate well to repeat listening on CD though. Also I wouldn't be surprised if imagination is better than reality in this instance. Someone had to talk some sense I guess :p I guess I'm just jealous I've seen a few of you guys...

    Stoner/Doom Bassists 89: Father's Missing Voodoo

    To be fair summarising them as keyboard metal was kinda rude. This is their big song at the moment https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1GdiAuAA3c Like I said I like it, but in terms of metal this is all there is in my town. My main point of interest was how far afield you have to look for...

    Stoner/Doom Bassists 89: Father's Missing Voodoo

    Hey guys. To follow up the question of what types of genre you play with, you all seem to have different types of music you play with live but what size area does that cover. Over here in the UK outside the major cities there's often very little scene. For example the only metal band I've seen...

    S/D Bassists #87 - A New Gear Argument

    That was awesome. Put a massive grin on my face. This thread seems to always have the best music, doom or otherwise.

    S/D Bassists #86 - Dollar Tree Romance

    I'm a bass player but it's funny you're talking about brass players because my first instrument was clarinent (I wanted to be a sax guy.) Seriously though, you guys have put me on to some good music so who cares? Sorry I love stoner rock but maybe I'm too pissed? Are there any British Doomsters?

    Does anyone else think the Grammy's are a joke?

    But Zeppelin literally just won a Grammy. They're still worthless but I think we all know that anyway at this point.
