I swear the guy never plays anything other than the root notes and he NEVER plays above the 12th fret. I know for LC's kind of music that you can't play Mendez-like bass lines, but come on! A junior-high band student could play those parts....
Lacuna Coil's bassist is the most boring of all-time

I think it's getting to the point where Lacuna Coil will have to write basslines for him in advance. How pitiful.

Lacuna coils riffs are the same, and the keyboard parts are simple blah blah blah, lets face it, that band is simply based around her voive and has little substance other than that. She should go solo or something...

Readin' me posts are ya?
he's been going out with the girl singer for the last 8 years, so he must be doing something right

Even though he does play extremely simple lines, I thought some of what he added to the guitar parts was very cool. For instance when the guitars would be playing those fat chords, he'd make them even fatter by adding a nice low note to the low b or something. Some cool sounding stuff.

When I played bass for one of my previous bands, I was also a root note bassist. But hey, I am a guitarist, not a bassist dammitt!!!!
Lacuna coil is boring period, its just that people PMS over whatever her name is, she's not pretty and she can't sing.
She's not pretty? First person I ever heard saying that. Eheh I just got a bass recently and I've been playing guitar for a while... guess what tab did I get to get started... Lacuna Coil - Circles easiest thing I could find

I agree that his bass playing is less than interesting, but guess what - he's the main songwriter for LC. He writes most of the music and Cristina writes most of the lyrics. I guess you don't have to be a good player to be a good songwriter.
He also plays the keyboards on the album.

Amen to that, someone finally agrees with me on this board.
I swear, i know this will start a arguement, but why dont they open up for evenscence, its exactly the same music, girl vocalist wit simple guitars. evenscence actually might have more techinical keyboards lol

Actually Lacuna Coil don't sound like Evanescence because of the use of Drop tunings and the one guitar, nothing-but-powerchords approach of Evanescence sounds different to Lacuna Coil. Also the guitar tone and placement of rests makes Evanescence more nu-metal.

EH? Slayer's opening for slipknot? I don't know anything about slipknot's current schedule or anything...I was just making some dumb statement to mirror the statement that lacuna coil and evanescence are the same. What crap.

bassist? what the hell is a bassist?
I only know about the 4 string subatomic hate axe tbh
This may be true, but they put on a pretty good show. As long as it sounds good, it doesn't matter, right?
Besides - Opeth's l00t skills make up for any of Lacuna Coil or Beyond the Embrace's weak points. At least on the 21st in Milwaukee they did.
