Tav Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 3. Jason Newstead (underrated bassist in my opinion)Couldn't agree more! I am currently enjoying the bassist from Blind Melons stuff...his name escapes me though! Also Jeff Ament from Pearl Jam is a good solid bassist.

Paranoid Android Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 You taking the piss?!?!?! FUCK! I completely forgot about Cliff Burtonno, but than i suppose it all comes down to what kind of bass playing you prefer, i wouldn't consider cliff burton for my top 100 bassists, if i could think of 100 good bassists.

Skin Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 Geddy LeeJohn MyungTony Levinthere's a lot of hands down blinding metal players but given how metal is produced these days i don't think any of them get to really stand out and shine hence the prog beasts above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Pacino Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 I have to agree with Andy Rourke.His bass playing is TOTALLY underated!!Probably coz of the ponce with the flowers prancing about in front of the band undermining their abilities. Cracking band but the singer's a cunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
