Punk Bass INTROS

Punk Bass Intros 4 Bass Punks, a playlist by With Liberty on Spotify

kind of a niche niche...
Not necessarily bass solos and basslines
But intros

Some exceptions (London Calling and California Uber Alles) are there, but the bass is the highlight of the opening moments.

Any other suggestions?Punk Bass Intros 4 Bass Punks, a playlist by With Liberty on Spotify

JJ Burnel's run at the beginning of "No More Heros" by the Stranglers:

This a funny mime performance, but the audio is the original song:

 

[Bob_Ross]

Kind of a grandfather of punk -- or a distant uncle if you will (see what I did there?) -- but Brian Turrington's bass on the intro to Brian Eno's 1974 tune "Third Uncle" always struck me as the ultimate punk rock attitude/minimalism:

 

[Bassdirty]

Okay, maybe not "punk" these days.. but whatabout Longview from greenday.. one of my faves to test out a P bass.

Yes, I guess theres drums too..but still.

Absolutely saw what you did there
Thought this was a bauhaus song initially
Though honestly im not well versed in that style of music
