This should be Top 5 "Metal" Bassists. I'm not saying this to be offensive however it's the truth that playing bass for Metal isn't as challenging as playing bass in other genres. Mainly because in Metal it's often the case that the Guitar is the more flamboyant instrument.
If this truly were the Top 5 Bassists you'd have to include Ray Brown, Stanley Clarke, Jeff Berlin, Jaco Pastorius, Victor Wooton, Mark King, Marcus Miller...etc.
LOl the most gayest top 5 bassists ever...like i don't even wanna talk about it but seriously....John Moyer??I've listened to disturbed a lot and he is fucking shit,he can't come up with something creative
Im sry, I love A7X but Johhny should not be on there, and Rob and Cliff would be higher than the others, Cliff first and Rob second the rest shouldnt be a top 5,
WTF ? Cliff is 4rth ? theres no Flea ? theres no Steve Harris ? and ! why have you chose those songs ? i mean, for cliff what about anestesia or orion or for whom the bell tolls ? and for rob what about that solo he does again and again and again ? And ! johnny christ ? WTF ? he's not even in my top 20 !!! i mean, he's nothing special... i wont dislike cause you are free to think what you want but... for real, try and get some culture in music ok ?
Where is Claypool,Flea,that young guy who died in the 90's or something?!They are pretty good as well...Just because they don't play heavy music,it doesn't mean they're not good.
You really can't say who is best to a certain extent that is dependent upon the person. But as far as skill goes, there are many better bassists that could easily play circles around this list . Maybe this should be your favorite bassists.
This is great. No Les Claypool (audition to actually be the bassist for Metallica) makes this video just that much better. Can you please broaden you horizon of bass players? This is just pathetic.
