I've just eaten my 2nd real meal, and first thing that was more than like 5 chips, since thursday. Haven't really gotten any sleep the past 3 nights. I'm surprised how decent I feel. Gonna go get beer and charcoal for bbq later in a moment.

It's really sad how bassists get no love.

Most of them don't do shit. They get what they deserve. Bassists who actually do shit get love, unless the rest of the band turns them down so they can't be heard. Honestly, whenever I see a review it seems like if the reviewer can hear bass they feel obligated to throw in a couple lines fellating the bassist. Imo inaudible-bass-following-the-guitar-line works best in most cases.

The solution is to just learn to sing while you play bass. Bassist/vocalists get mad love (Lemmy, Tom Angelripper, guy from Venom, Damnagoras on Heathenreel, Glenn Benton, etc). Man up.

Yes! I got the grain of salt stuck under one of my keys out.

Far too many metalheads don't even know what a bass guitar sounds like in a mix.

We have one guitar, (purposefully) and I'm a big fan of bass (purposefully), and we always make sure it's very much a part of the mix and the band (purposefully).

Highly doubt this.

 

[Eligos]

Highly doubt this.

Doubt away. But I've had multiple conversations with my fellows about albums with incredible bass work, they'd heard (and often owned) said albums, and had no idea what I was talking about.

I think it's more the fact that so much music of every genre now is downplaying the instrument in the mix so much...more people likely have the *ability* to pick it out, but you on the other hand are listening as a bass player with experience listening to the bass and find more ease in following the instrument, even in a bad mix.

 

[mutantllama]

I've been getting pretty good at finding the bass.
