Well one of my friends cam over this sunday, and with him he brought a DVD With everything Iron Maiden ever Recorded. So He let me rip it to my computer. I was listening to some of there stuff earlier today, and most of it did not get the respect it deserved! Rainmaker is a very cool song, The Duelists is a lot of fun as well. As well as the song powerslave. I mean I have not listened to all of them, duh, But they are one of my favorite bands ever. They have some of the sickest bass parts IMO. I also recently got the Images and Words album and the Train of thought album by Dream theater. I really like Under a Glass moon, This Dying soul, and in the Name of God.

Almost any Tool song(dont know if it's considered metal)
Maybe "duality" by slipknot, has some funny lines.
Besides that, I'm not rly a big metal fan if I do play metal, I mostly just drop my tuning and improvise to the beat of my metronome

 

[slipkorn917]

megadeth - dawn patrol / peace sells
shadows fall - the light that blinds
metallica - orion / for whom the bell tolls / anesthesia pulling teeth
and anything by dethklok & cannibal corpse

 

[germ_77]

Anything from maiden, megadeth, or stormtroopers of death

 

[germ_77]

Oh and I guess its actually thrash not metal but anything by pc deathsquad or pitboss 2000. Really simple but awesome bass riffage.

[EriktheRed]

Aside from the already mentioned old Maiden stuff (add "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" to the list), I'd like to mention Megadeth's "Sweating Bullets".

Hi again, Alvaro.
Thanx again for that tab you did for me.

Btw, is that the Gene Simmons bass you're playing in your avatar pic?

 

[EriktheRed]

Guess I oughtta post something pertinent to the thread, too...

I second "Round and Round" by Ratt.

Not sure if AC/DC would be considered "metal", but if so, I'd also say every song off Back in Black.

Glad to hear from you again! IIRC, the song was "Let's Go" by The Cars, right?

And yes, that's a Cort GS Axe Bass. Not my main instrument, but anyway I have lots of fun playing it, especially after this mod.
