Issues with old band putting up things i recorded

[Ampeg SVT]

My last band i recently split from because everyone in it has no respect for each other has recently put up a song with a my bassline in it. I am curious because since i recorded it isnt it partly mine? Dont they have to have permission to put it up?

Only issue is they are a bunch of teenage morons that smoke and do pot so i doubt if i tell them anything it would work.

However what should i do?

Nothing. Who cares? Did you write the song by yourself? If not, you really have no say. And even if you did, who cares?

Eh, no actually. Actually i dont know why i posted that.

I just happen to have a grudge against the guitarist.

Yep, if you just wrote the bassline, you would have a hard time asking them to take it down. And, unless they get discovered and are on MTV in a week, what does it matter? I have posted questions that are similar, but usually involved songs that I have almost entirely wrote myself (usually everything but vocal melody). I wouldnt sweat a bassline though.
