The guy has good technique, but this song entirely defeats the purpose of bass, which is to hold the root of the chord down. It's fine to wander around the scale in the bassline, but this is just shred on bass. =/
Lol- back when the guitar was just getting popular a LONG time ago for jazz use the purpose was to just play backing chords... people then would have said the same back then if somone was playing lead on guitar. You sir are ...... I leave the insults away.
wow. no.. bass was originally like that because everyone who played it had sucked at bass and couldn't shred. a lot of people play bass just because they can't play guitar. This is was true bass playing is. i mean i am the bass and rhythm guitar in my band just by playing on bass. basically the same just bigger spaces, bigger strings, frets and such. it's easy once you learn each technique.
while i dont like claypool, damn do i respect jerry the racecar driver.
but bass started as no one had heard of anything as strange as a bass playing like this. THAT is why they were all 8th note roots etc, back in in the day.
then came chic corea jaco, myung, claypool etc, and they revolutionized this. just like auto makers improve upon cars( for the most part) bass players, guitar players, any musical instrument Players's's(?) improve upon that instrument.
you're a douche, bass is a musical instrument, and we bassists can play it however the hell we want to play it. also, Satatik, HarukoKuyumi, and slipknotfan22511, i agree with you guys 100%.
GorillaGuerilla - if you want to be the guy that has to stand there playing root 8th notes for an entire set, then be my guest, but bass can contribute more to the music than root notes, while being alot less boring to play.
This bass player is japanese. His name is masaki former base player of Animetal. If you want to know about animetal more, you could find in wikipedia or amazon. Actually, Animetal is not in activety at present. Now he is playing at canta.
kinda sounds something maiden would play haha anyone agree with me?
