good stuff man, keep up with the accuracy. ignore what other people say, if you listen to everything, then obviously your smart enough to know whats better

@Obituary1306 Its not the hardest thing my friend your exaggerating and being dumb blues and jazz are THE most hard gener ever in music dont say somthing is hard bec of the speed the thing is hard when it requires a technique to play oh and btw nothing is hard if you try and practice. if you say lamb of god is hard then sorry bro you are amature Job for a cow boy(huh!!??) and if you need to listen to ''hard to play'' songs listen to necrophagist or SOP(spawn of possession)

@FoxEnyuron Personally, I think 95% of metal is crap. I can't stand Obscura, I mean, you might, but it's just too bland to me. I've listened to cosmogenesis a few times and I want to barf when I hear anticosmic overload. There's some good stuff though, I think the album Still Life by Opeth is one of the best rock/metal albums ever written. Lateralus by Tool is a masterpiece as well.

@thatoneguymusic1 and to further this: Mother man (drum & bass) by Athiest, any Obscura song from really any album (How does one fretless in metal?!) and pretty much every song by Pavor, the german technical death metal band actually -created- by the bassist!

[FoxEnyuron]

@squiresuzuki I agree with you in the fact that metal is an easy genre (none harder than Jazz and Blues) but seriously, only tone-deaf retards judge a metal band by how fast their drummer is with a double-kick. Lamb of God contains some seriously innovative material (just look at the wiki page, and maybe actually pay attention to the music you criticize). I'm a bassist as well (Jazz, Blues, Funk, Technical progressive Death metal, you name it) but good metal is -difficult- to write!

@Obituary1306 you don't have more strings because of how difficult the music is. you have more strings for more sounds. if you're not going to solo as a bassist then you probably don't need any more than for strings. if you play jazz or blues, especially in a smaller combo, you may be asked to solo. if you do and you have higher strings the melodies you play pop out way better. it's just another avenue for expression through various tonal qualities

Think metal is hard? Look up 'Got a Match?' by The Chick Corea Electric Band

Great video btw :)

@squiresuzuki High five on the Primus dude. Did you see their tour?

[thatoneguymusic1]

@rickamaru I definitely think that you are right, but he does have a point. He gave you a bad example of what metal to listen to. More of the "core" band (deathcore, metalcore, etc) have very simple bass lines. Check out "Your Treachery Will Die With You" by Dying Fetus, although he is using a pick, still difficult. Also check out the video "Nick Recording Bass" from As Blood Runs Black, that's finger picking. Like I said before, I agree with you; but that ignorant fuck does have a point.

ok, there are some genres of metal that have soul, but it's what you prefer. I hate people who talk shit when they do know shit but i also hate people who are bitching about genres, difficulty and blah blah. There are even some Death Metal bands who have emotional bass lines in their songs (Death - Cosmic Sea) if you can't even listen to that...just screw it.

@Obituary1306 hey, just to let you know. your a dipshit. the uploader is completely right. you have no idea how hard it is to play the blues or jazz. the two hardest things to play on any instrument.

[squiresuzuki]

@Obituary1306 Wait, did you just say metal is "way harder than any other genre"? haha, I laughed. I like some metal and I play bass and trust me, metal is one of the easiest genres. I know people who practice their violin for 5 hours every day and are practically virtuosos, meanwhile there's some shitty metal bands out there (like Lamb of God) that people basically judge based on how fast they can hit their bass drums...

that being said, i respect some metal like Tool, Dream Theater, Primus.
