Blackwater Bass

[hibernal_dream]

From a virtually inaudible bass sound on Still Life, BWP was a pretty good production effort!

Anyone else listen to this album with a good subwoofer?

Some of those deep notes and the double-bass get some pretty nice vibrations especially harvest!

yeah, the bass sounds great, like at the end of Blackwater Park

I think The Drapery Falls basically says it all...

 

[Dvoters]

Yeah, I agree wit Moony, The Drapery Falls bass is fucking DOPE!

mendez is the man. though of course the bass work on orchid and morningrise were much more amazing...

Hmm, the bass on SL is not that audible than on, for example BWP, but still like it. I mean, you can always turn it up from your stereo system. Oh, and listen to the bass on F.o.M. ...

There was bass on Still Life???

Just kidding.


I think that the bass on the first two albums (Morningrise especially) was better than on the subsequent three. But someone said something about Johan not being able to play it all or something, so Mike had to do parts... I can't remember properly. I never really noticed the bass on MAYH and Still Life, except on a few parts. Then for BWP, it was back with a bang. Metaphorically speaking. The bass on The Drapery Falls is fantastic.
