No, no, no...

The topic is "bands you could identify from how the bass sounds", not "bands you could identify by how bad the music is".

So mean! If Joe Zawinul were alive today, he'd be spinning in his grave! (Thanks, I'm here all week.)

The interesting part is:
How many of these already posted can be recognized by the bass sound alone,
and not by the way it is played. Some bassists are instantly recognizable by their playing,
maybe in combination with their sound.
But which of them do you think you can identify if they just played simple scales?

You're over-thinking this.
