Wow, I used to be into metal, all the Metallica and Megadeth I could find, and then I got into punk rock and pawned all of my Metallica CDs. I'm actually not a big fan of Anthrax, but this guy's one of my bass idols just the same.
@MrWankata he has a signature fender AND squier, and plays both live. Squiers aren't bad, youjust gotta find the right one, and tweek it (if you want that is)
im going towards your left eccept i want to drum but i dont have cymbals but i made homemade bassdrum i need a pedal or double pedal i just need a hihat and cymbals. and slayer isnt a good band for kids like hem O.O
I saw him live with Helmet some time ago,... I gave him a thumbs up at one point (because he did something amazing) and he just walked up to me during the song gave me a handshake whilst stil playing :) that was pretty cool.
@PiratesofHelmond sorry but no, steve has the tchnique and frank dont have, but frank is like duff ( but he is better) they dont have technique they just go on
In an alternative universe, Anthrax are recognised as the greatest thrash band that ever was (with Nuclear Assault accepted as second) and metallica are shown up as the deep purple tribute act they clearly have been since Masters.
I couldn't name any other band that went from being a great band to a phenomenal one after a change of singers. It just never happens.
Frank is a great bass player. His words should be an inspiration for any budding bassists. It was really nice to see him invite a kid to play drums. He also made an interesting point about the drummer from Helmet who made him a better rhythmic bass player.
When I was 16, Frank Bello was plastered all over my bedroom walls and I was sure I was gonna marry him..lol! Of course Anthrax rocked my world too - it wasn't all about Frankie!
Years later and all grown up, State of Euphoria still gets regular airtime in my stereo and Frank remains one of my favorite bass players. (And still makes me grin like a schoolgirl!)
What a awesome guy Frank Bello inspired me to play bass since the age of nine now I'm 16 \m/

@BackingTracks6661 he uses picks with Helmet and all sometimes with Anthrax like on songs like Gung Ho :) but he mainly uses fingers with Anthrax

Thanks for the information again.
