Because there is some bass playing out there that is above and beyond reproach ... but I seriously doubt that we are even thinking of folks that play the Stick, or folks that experiment, and folks that told the bass to get screwed!
As always, moshkito's post is incomprehensible yet somehow also deeply profound.

sounds like a prophet to me!

Loving the concept for this thread!

That Led Bib track in particular was sweet.

Also a shout out to the opening movement of Kansas Magnum Opus. But yea, nice call on Led Bib.

EDIT: and this sounds on point as well:

This is going to be a fun blog ... and yeah ... I'm gonna listen to that ... but honestly ... I really think that most metal bass stuff is so boring, ugly and so childish as to be as bad as those diapers we remember so well at times! But we always had a good laugh learning to play the ABC's didn't we?
 
Now let me get Robin Williams to do some screaming and swearing for us!


Hi,

Led Bib has nothing to do with metal, and as that's the only band I've mentioned so far I'm not sure what you're talking about.  Also, some of the most impressive music (on many levels) I've heard could be described as metal, so you're either listening to the wrong things, or just need to open your mind more.

As a bassist, I more than approve! (the fact that I'm a bassist, apparently gives the approval some amazing transcendental feeling)

Keep the stuff coming.

It's nice to see the development of bass sounds in the prog rock genre. Bands who took a step forward and were looking for harder edged sound like Yes, King crimson and rush just to name a few to Primus and now Led Bib is a fine example.

".... feature dirty, ugly, bass sounds that are frankly just revolting". Sounds like a description of Chris Squires entire carrier.Dead

I will be keeping an eye on this, Led Bib was an interesting start.
