The most famous death metal band, like the music version of a horror movie. Made famous by they're tales about gore, zombies, and having sex with dead bodies.

Their bassists, Alex Webster, is amazing.

The most underestimated, but most awesome and coolest sounding instrument in a rock band. The reason people degrade bassists is because it looks easy. infact its not.. the best bassists make it look easy. Guitarists are usually seen cooler than the bassists. But anyone who says that bassists are failed guitarist should probably get brutally beaten up..
I chose to play bass because its more fun, sounds cooler, and is also more harder to master than guitar.

4+ stringed instrument that, should there be no Entwistle or Claypool for the current generation, will forever be associated with boring types who just wanna be in a band and down low in the mix

Bassist for the best band AFI, and one of the greatest bassists.. also the sexiest man alive. VERY HOT

Best bassist ever. Died 1987 in from a beating from a bouncer in a Florida bar after wanting to get on stage because the bassist in the band that was playing sucked. Was in the band Weather Report. Produced several albums, like Black market, this is this, sportin life, domino theory,procession, weather report, night passage, 8:30,mr.gone, heavy weather.

god among bassists, with a kickass goatee and attitude. see genius or flea or fieldy

A misunderstood and underestimated instrument. Some retards with no musical sense think that a bass player is a lesser form than a guitar player but they don't realise that in many songs, a guitar would sound very shitty without the bass. Same goes for the guitar, a bass sounds... boring without a guitar. The two go hand in hand, whether added synthetically or actually played. I am a bassist and I have never layed hands on a guitar, they just don't interest me. So alot of bassists aren't failed guitarist. I chose to be a bassist because I love the sound and have an appreciation for its importance.
