@vonwalrusberger I know right? Jesus, the thought of comparing this music legend, this music genius, this music GOD to the likes of.. some pop-punk, completely mediocre, over-hyped bassist. *shivers* It's like comparing to John Lennon to Nick Jonas.
@HelloSadness101 when u say "mostly sounds shit" u're probably talking about parts where he's playing fast , in fact as u're not misician u can't understand and clearly hear those parts , slow them down and listen to them one more time and so u maybe understand that its not "shit" . He's bass' god , with jaco pastorius , that's all .
@k1ppospec1all "easy > medium > hard > very hard > expert > victor wooten" you definitely messed up all your signs hahaha. you're saying he is less than easy.
Bassguitar Level: Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very awesome :)
I cant believe how many people are hating on Victor Wooten, everyone has their style and how they play, Victor wooten, Flea, Les Claypool are all amazing bass players, each bringing a little of their own flavor as to how they play bass. Stop being a bunch of *ick riders and appreciate the music for what it is;p
@BrianSou69 Nothing... because if he adds "the groove", then its not Opeth anymore. it becomes YES. maybe in a form of progressive metal that has some elements of jazz/blues. but plain progressive wouldn't do much.
@BrianSou69 I just get frustrated with fans of Dream Theater that think that progressive metal is the peak of musicianship. And they feel the need to bring up the band on every single video involving music on Youtube.
@BrianSou69 i've been listening to alot of wooten and he's mainly funk and slap style, although he is an amazing bassist i don't think he would really be suited to such styles like prog metal except matbe dream theater
@BrianSou69 You really think that he should be in progressive metal? thats like michael jacksoon in screamo, it just aint right( yes i know mj dead, my point exacly0
i dont know how he retains his cool and smile during parts like 1:44 but its awesome and just makes the song or jam (whatever you wanna call it) even better.
@MrCozza12345 You just copied that from a comment on one of flea's videos. And that doesn't really apply to victor. He's good, but Flea is faster, and the stuff he plays actually sounds nice. This sounds shit.
