I'd say one bassist who has been much overlooked is "Nefarious" from Macabre. Check out some of his stuff -



I just think this guy is immensely underrated as is the whole band. I love his ability to make a really catchy bass line OVER a really catchy guitar line, all while playing backdrop to songs about serial killers.

He has tons of great performances, but you have to really sit down and listen to a whole album to get the full picture.
