Man Talbot have played with everyone it seems, I traveled with my friends band called Khuda for 3 months all over Europe and it seemed like they had put stickers everywhere.

Just the title of this thread enrages me.

Although Of Montreal uses multiple basses playing in harmony all the fucking time. So take that metal, and indie-pop band is heavier than you.

Oh? :idk: :?: Why on earth?

I've worked with bands having two bass guitars ever since -96 so I'm very biased but I can't understand why such a technical, tuning and instrument related detail would enrage anybody!

I got the impression that DareDiablo's guitarist was actually using some kind of guitar/bass hybrid (or just an extended range bass played like a guitar)
:idk: can anybody verify this?

Hey that pretty Rad! Who is in NABO? you and Aen? more?
I have always wanted to be in a multiple bass band. I have jammed a few times with 3+ bassists but nothing ever comes of it...Usually the drummers fault.

You know, I can get behind a lot of bass-oriented stuff, but if there's one thing I hate it's slap bass. And that song has far too much of it.

On top of the fact that I find Victor Wooten to be one of the most uninspiring, wanky, overrated bassists of all time. He's only slightly better (in my mind) than Jaco.
