GASing for a Bass VI... but I need more.

I know Placebo, The Cure, TTNG and some other dad rock bands use Bass VI in a few songs, but I'm looking for bands where Bass VI is one of the main instruments across their discography, like Football, etc.

Bonus points for noisy stuff.

I made a bunch of 6-year-olds listen to that when I chaperoned the pumpkin patch field trip the other day. I was like "You have to check this out - totally underrated. I think they could have been even bigger, but back in the 90s Steve Kilbey developed a huge heroin problem."

Almost all the bass parts on my new record were done with a VI pawnshop series. Check out the weary heads link in my sig.
