The drums and guitar don't speak the same language…rhythm vs melody….the bass is the translator because it speaks both. Oh fuck, i sound like a prog-rock paid-by-the-note asshole. Wait, I can spend the whole night just riding the e and a strings and still get free beer, paid just as much, and laid? BASS! BASS! BASS! Oh, and my wife wants to know why bass players always have such long arms…yeah look at a few of us/your self…i have no answer but she's right ????
EDIT: Not hating on prog-rock. I could play Rush's Hemispheres album note for note when i was 16 but then i discovered the Ramones ????????????
????????????
do you have tabs for what you played here?
i don't even know how to play bass and now i'm part of 3 bands
These approaches to writing bass lines work for almost all music
This is only American style Pop punk
Narrator: “What bass players actually do.”
Sid V.: “Hold my bass.”
But I loved it
This seems to be focusing on 1 band…. Just a little bit
Punk o rama 5 star.
It’s not punk if bassist plays something besides root notes.
I think some of my favorite bands are NoMeansNo, Victims Family and Rhythm Pigs. All of them can loosely be described as "Jazz Punk" (at least for some songs) I think. Kepone is interesting too, but I wouldn't say they belong to my favorites. And all of them have some very fun bass lines, although there aren't many tabs out there, many tabs that are out there are wrong and I suck at hearing stuff and translating it into actually playing it.
And yes, I kinda had to think about Jazz Punk because you mentioned "Walking Bass" and my first reaction was "So the rumors are true… punk is just lower class jazz".
We get drunk and pretend to play
Way too complex for punk. This is iron maiden shit
Black Flag, Dead Kennedys, Suicidal Tendencies, Agent Orange, Descendents, Adolescents, Tsol, DRI… These made me learn bass, and then got me into metal step by step. I'm very greatfull of punk for that.
In my opinion, some of the best punk bass playing I’ve ever heard is Matt Freeman, on the Rancid album “..and out come the wolves.”
I had a roommate in the 90s that played bass in a punk band. If you looked at anywhere but his hands he was barely moving. But, he would have to change out the strings about three times every show.
Punk music is an iceberg. You're explaining the very tip.
Playing bass (optional)
love this one !
Obviously you don’t know what real punk is. You can’t explain punk as anything goes
Doe Hét!
Who made up these rules. I don't want to conform .????????
Yo Cigar!
Damn I love that video “10 levels of punk bass”.
Wait when did you start talking? Been missing your videos lately ????????
essentially, how to create anti flag bass lines
