If you like Fugazi you should check out Minor Threat.

Miss murder is quite possibly AFIs worst song. I say this as a fucking massive fan.

that reminds me, 'libel' by tilt has a good bassline too 👍

Omg! The horns were from Sublime!! They knew each other. Such a great tune!

Primus - ENTP as a band

These were a great punk band. The best from the USA. The Stooges were raw too but were more rock. The Kennedys were like Crass - an attitude with the music.

I love Joe Lally!! Check out Ataxia, a project he was involved with that had some incredibly cool bass lines

Have you ever done any Public Image Ltd./Jah Wobble? I would die❤

Jordan burns on drums is an absolute monster. Top punk drummer there ever was.

you should go over linus klausenitzer era obscura (go over songs like akroasis or ten sephiroth)

you familiar with the early 80's band 'Japan'? the bassist Mick Karn is a real interesting player, he plays fretless unlike anybody else... The keyboard player Richard Barbieri is now in Porcupine Tree... Mick Karn played as a session guy a lot too... Check out 'visions of china' by Japan, and 'Dali's car', the title track off an album of the same name with Peter Murphy (Bauhaus) singing!

Gotta love that riddim section

I’m a guitar player. I love these videos. Teaches me about bass playing and how important the rhythm section is.

Would love to see you cover the new Omnific song czcams.com/video/zmrA3shcOho/video.htmlsi=MhcI7au9PCBc9654

Descending please!

I honestly never realised that intro was all bass. Great video again, i love these as guitarist.

The Ox! I'm still learning from him, but not copying him. RIP John.

Tony Kanals best basslines were before No Doubt got big. Watch videos of them performing live before 93 and youll see that hes suuuuper funky slap based influenced.

Man who claims to be bass teacher, has never listened to the work of Peter Hook. That's like a guitar teacher whose never listened to Jimi Hendrix. There's no intelligent analysis here ; failing to understand that bass isn't just bass, but a means of creating sound and using it as such to create counter melodies and hooks in different ranges other than the usual low-end.. Add in use of chorus, phasing, echo and so forth, and you've got a bass guitar as an instrument for creating sound, rather than just being following guitar lines an octave below. Heaven knows what'd he make of listen to neds atomic dustbin who have a similar use of highend counter-melodies. Peter Hook is a core bass player for anyone who plays bass to listen to to get outside the confines of what people normally assume bass , same as geddy lee, alex griffin, jaco etc. Incredibly unimpressed with the content of this ; this teacher seems to consider bass as existing solely within a very narrow role, a very narrow box of sound. This 'teacher' couldn't teach me a single thing. Fails to understand how the bass works within the song and its structure. Been playing bass for 35 years. This video isn't worth watching.

Watch THE KIDS ARE ALRIGHT!

When you consider this was 1978 - its kinda crazy just how ahead of its time their sound was

I feel like skate-punk and thrash are so much closer in musical style than a lot of people acknowledge. Skate-punk was basically a more polished version of hardcore, but came out not long after crossover-thrash was becoming popular - and crossover was kinda like a lot rougher, less polished thrash. So if you take a genre, un-polish it and then polish it again, its not too hard to the step and similarities between thrash and skate-punk, certainly moreso than many other metal genres. Adding to that, there are a good chunk of punk bands in the 00s who sound waaay more metal than punk. A Wilhelm Scream, Adrenalized, Belvedere, Almeida to name a few....

Haha, this is my favourite Pennywise song and i didn't think anyone else really rocked with it so its great to see a comprehensive breakdown on the track!

Old no doubt was quite different. They have always been pretty good

Their first album is by far the most ska No Doubt gets and has some of the funkiest bass lines ever written in the genre

Can you please do the red rocks gig? Its amazing!

Easily my favorite Primus song!

First time I heard the song Therapy? covered it in 94.

Welcome to the club

It would be cool to see you cover (or talk about ) your view of DD Verni of Overkill , and his "crank" tone.

I really enjoy you breaking down these songs. The songs you do videos are frequently ones that I already love but when they arent I always check it out sometimes get introduced to good stuff I haven't really spent time with yet. Also, check out the earlier no doubt. I think tragic kingdom is their best album but they had a whole thing going on that was great for a while.

Check out the Smiths Andy Rourke is a funk master in a Brit pop band

"Easy Slap Bake Oven" How is that not the name of the next Primus album?

I was in a club band (original music) in the punk/new wave on bass and went from wanting to play Zep/Jones stuff to new wave and it was really (when I was playing (1978-1984) just like u say stripped down music and was IMO more about melody than anything else...skill not so much. You should check out Joy Division's 'Closer' lp because "Love will tear us apart' was an anomoly for them.

Keep with the Descendents lineage and do ALL - Honey Peeps

"I gotta put this on 0.5". Somehow the biggest compliment I've ever seen Matt get, man who gets nothing but compliments.

Primus is badass. I see them every time them come to the area. I’m mostly into punk, hardcore. And metal. But I pay attention to talent. Masterful execution

Tony definitely doesnt use a pick. Does a lot of slap with No Doubt. Prince was a big influence for him.

You should try listening to Rufio’s “Road to recovery”

"New" is my fav of theirs to jam along to. See if you can catch their set at Coachella a few weeks back. Worth a watch, they've definitely still got "it."

The three big bass players for me are always Geddy Lee Billy Sheehan and Steve Harris but not always in that order, as a 13yr old first time I heard Steve Harris on Run to the hills I was blown away but when I heard Red Barchetta I was like Geddy your the man then Billy Sheehan in DLR I JUST LOST IT! I just love em all sometimes it's hard to choose they are all so good in their own ways

I love No Doubt - their ska, rock, punk fusion was genius. Now I am heavily into The Warning. Tony Kabul is a really good bass player but Alejandra Villarreal is epic.

gwen and tony dated for a long time just before tragic kingdom came out and some of the very songs on tragic kingdom (don't speak) are written about him while he's standing right there. glad they could make it work out.

It's kind of an open secret that 80's bands had some seriously bad ass bass players, this guy is one of the best. Check out Duran Duran Rio, it's epic.

This song was written pre-9/11 and that messes me up.

LD50 is incredible, and Ryan is an amazing bassist! he's been the biggest inspiration and even though the music i play now sounds nothing like Mudvayne his playing is always an inspiration!

what a cool video

You can't have Fugazi without Lally.

This was a challenging song for me to learn for my last band....but so fun!

Should check out suburban rhythm my sister sam.
