[leonidasfire]

8 personas son envidiosas... la neta... 

[22Pattihrafn]

the bass in this song is so fucking amazing ! :D

[Ilovemusicramones]

omg D: great job!!! loved it!!

[TheBassMaze]

Great version! I also did this cover! check it out in my channel!

[sskrockband]

That bassline should not be legal... it's a drug... right there... Muse Rules...

[unbiaxidental]

You are my muse. Two names to thank for sunshining my life. Muse and Furymuso.

[TheFloay]

i think i have the same bed covers as you...

[badfox88]

MUCKY STRINGS. Good cover though :)

[tdrider2008]

Which Live Performance is this?

[MrKengo47]

very well done. how do get the camera angle?

[AdrianMuffin]

Most people don't understand the importance of a bass in a band. All they care about is the crazy guitarist moving their fingers fast. Great playing by the way. Nailed it right on!

[epikoh]

Very good cover man, check our band cover of Hyper Music, it starts automatically at our profile! :))

[LukasLuckyman]

You are the man... damn good bass player...

[louis595]

dude, you have chris's exact sound! I don't even play bass, i play drums, but i enjoy watching your covers. basses are so damn cool :)

[Horowitz01111]

muse is one of the only rock bands today where you can hear the bassline, thats why the three piece sound like they could be a five piece, simply due to the bass and vocals, and that is what makes muse such an amazing band

[Keefeology]

A question all the pros out there: How do I achieve such a bassy tone from the Gt6b itself?

[DominikWidomski]

fucking awesome playing dude, love muse, always epic base line

[matorel69]

Realy love it !! Can you send me the tabs please ? it's not so easy to decrypt it...

[duendenally]

another awesome bass is 'jenny was a friend of mine - the killers', i guess you will like it

[Minjo26]

@XxJD94Xx1 Yes, it's drop D, most of OoS is.

[flamepal]

Awesome cover dude, what effects are you using?

[eileenmelis]

this is really awesome :D . I like how you play the live version of the song in the background!

BASS=sex.

[FrogOnCloud]

I'd love to be your neighbour

[flowforce3]

[zebradust311]

@XxJD94Xx1 From what I can tell he is in Drop D tuning

[ThePedrosa25]

[JoelRodrigues21miles]

nice cover!!! realy nice!

i love this music! is hyper!

[stayxs]

PERFECT :DD

[Castexification]

Love this cover! Great job!!!

[destructodolly]

Awesome job man. And this was actually really helpful for me. I'm currently trying to learn this one but I was having a bit of trouble with the timing in the verse, so it's nice to be able to watch someone play it. Probably one of the best songs ever.

[MrJimmayD]

is this in some kind of drop tuning? please reply

[destructodolly]

@MrJimmayD Drop D

[nohopeinfear97]

I actually get butterflies in my stomach listening to this bass, it's just beautiful! Great job!

[cuntliberty]

which live show did you take?

[GatedSound]

Amazing job, much better than my video :/

Oh well, you inspire me to do better :)

[Carlamania789]

love the camera angle

[joanmesa]

THUMBS UP FOR ONE OF THE BEST MUSE BASSLINES !!!!

[MattTheMalaka]

@joanmesa lol fail!

[Sylartichot]

Win

[chjohnst]

Great playiing, what effect are you using for fuzz/distortion? I have been using a swollen pickle and been having a tough time getting a full on fuzz sound.

[desolat3]

My head exploded from your righteous bass skillz

[DDKstreetballa]

damn nice job man

[MuseRaven22]

this is one of the sickest bass lines ever :D

[1337l33ch3r]

I love the bass line too!

[ThEZoLraK88]

hey man, you are great

where did you get the tabs for this song? the ones that i got are different

I'm trying to learn how to play bass right now and I wish someday I could be as good as you

keep rocking dude!

[Lordiownage]

Also, if you do not keep your thumb under your neck you will mess up the joints of your thumb.

[bassplaya137]

Jesus christ guys hes not gonna give out tabs. its called google. besides its better to learn a song by ear, its funner and much more rewarding. (yes i know funner is not a word but it should be)

[EvilParsnip]

could you send me the tabs please? ive subscribed

[EvilParsnip]

could you send me the tabs please ?

[RichieBugatti]

Sounds like he's using some kinda Fuzz box with a little gain in his amp with a touch of Phase shifter.

[TozzaMazza]

i know this is probably an annoying question but how did you get that tone...its sweet. i use guitar rig, could you tell me what effects and how you used them please. Very nice vids. Luv muse, Love your covers :D

[krazyates888]

a question for all you pros out there: my teacher is telling me that i'm not supposed to play with my thumb hanging over the neck, but instead i should always keep it in the center of the neck...but i play MUCH better the "wrong" way (or so he calls it), and apparently so does Mr. FuryMuso here...

so which is the right way? IS there a right way?

[FuryMuso]

Yes and no. It is possible to play with your thumb over the neck, as many bassists demonstrate every time they play live. BUT, if you want to learn correct technique, then your thumb needs to be under the neck at all times. I have learnt proper technique and to be an actual musician in relation to bass, you need to learn and use proper technique. Other than that, you just learn visually what to play, as opposed to knowing WHAT you are actually playing musically.

[krazyates888]

thanks a lot man, you've been a great help

[92Tleigh]

@FuryMuso Im going to buy myself a Big Muff in a couple weeks and was wondering what effects pedal where using for this song, not really sure what other bass pedals that where any good where out there. thanks

[chjohnst]

@krazyates888 your teacher is right, yes you should keep your thumb centered in the middle of the neck is it will allow for more movement and flexibility with your fingers. Almost like an anchor to spring off of. But it also depends on the songs you are playing and whats comfortable for you. I have pretty big hands so its more comfortable for me to keep my hand in the right spot for me. I tend to change my technique with each song.

[Minjo26]

@krazyates888 Play whatever you feel comfortable with. I've had people nag on me for playing with my thumb over the neck, but I really don't care. I see being just as much as a personal preference thing as if you support your right thumb on the pickups or top string. If you play better that way what the hell does it matter? In fact you should see the way I've held a pen for my entire life. There is no "correct technique" for anything. Whatever you feel makes you preform best, do that.

[charmen110]

@krazyates888 On my guitar i use my thumb to mute the lower strings so i can strum the whole thing but only play the notes i want to so i think hes being over critical

[fightingsporkk]

@krazyates888 listen to your teacher. he probably knows better than you

[Zip2461996]

@krazyates888 Well I m worse he tells me to put my bass in the same height as I am playing sitting down, but of course I have it at the same height as my ****. At least I don't have to play standing in front of him XD

[wusundowma]

@krazyates888 Keep your thumb where it should be, and you'll flub less. Trust me on that. You might be able to get away with improper technique for some songs, but if you get into bad habits you'll run into trouble in more challenging pieces.

One important exception to this might be slapping in keys other than E, A or D. Learn about Louis Johnson for more on that.

[19ZoSo93]

one of the best basslines from muse!

Great Cover man!

[lemondededemainTV]

Is it the live version from Rock AM Ring '02 you're playing over

[hyperguy20]

i fuking love the bass in this song. Nice job!

[myles3002]

Is that a chip on your Bass I can see or just the light reflecting off of it? lol

[botakxuw]

[MrNojews]

[ponfucijus]

Amazing, dude! You inspired me to become a bassist. Sadly, i can't afford bass guitar yet :(

[kornoporno]

[maiLO9O]

You could play it on guitar for now like I have xD

[crunchienut1]

i am amazed this doesn't have 6 stars!!!

[TiedInChains]

Awesome, and indeed, one of the best bassists I've (in rock at least, and using effects). Btw what are you using?

[Umbrellas0]

Probably the coolest bass part ever (tied with Hysteria). :D

[desichic20]

Great bassist dude. I freakin love the bass line in this, Chris is a genious :)

[hiringacoroner]

EPIC

[cvpingpong]

[AObasiolu14]

[DimakinRUS]

[TitaniumMice]

thanx to you i learned this song (from da bassist)

[BlitzAceX]

You Are A Classified G! lol I Gots 2 learn that!!!

[smiley148784]

lies and slander, Muse would still sound great without pedal's. They just wouldn't sound like Muse.

[JoshOldfield11]

amazing!

[allthelonleyppl]

this is why i luv muse so much...u can actually hear the bass fantaticly =)

[sc45470]

I think Muse wanted Fuzz Distortion on Bass because Matt has to sing and play guitar, and sometimes even playing Piano, so they kinda I think wanted another guitar without a rythm guitarist. Also, to me, they would be nothing without the fuzz, just try and play a muse song clean.

[ThisVideoLousyLah]

nothing? Muse is nothing when there's no Chris Wolstenholme's Akai deep impact pedal and Russian big muff and other pedals?

[sc45470]

True his basslines are effective, but look, the eq isn't without the distortion. That's what I'm saying.

[JamesCmuse]

one of my band practices are bassist forgot his fuzz pedal...we tried supermassive black hole and it sucked, sounded really....odd!

i think their is some truth in wat ur saying :D

[UnAcceptable67]

I actually agree..

[ZombieSlayer93]

I can't work it out. Does this song have any effects on bass?

Anyway, good playing!

[crazyjames1233]

it uses drop D tuning

[ghslaper]
