Metallica - "The Shortest Straw" (Bass Cover)

- The album with the least bass is the one that got me into Metallica and into playing bass. As James Hetfield once said, the songs in this album are full of rhythm guitar solos. Adding bass to the mix of these songs does take them to a whole new level (in my opinion). With or without bass this album is on my top favorite albums of all time.
*About the bass tone: I did stray from the original bass sound a little on this one on purpose. The timbre Jason has here sounds too scooped and thin. My impression is they rushed the bass production on this one (no doubt).
Tuning: Standard (EADG)
Bass: Alembic Elan - Hudba
They really screwed Jason on the editing for this whole album, it's beautiful to hear you bring it to life.
🤘🏻
I didn't learn about the bass in this mix until much later in life. It's weird that it has always been my favorite album and bass is now my favorite instrument. It's nice to see this played without a pick.
That can happen. Still a great album 🤘🏻
There's some versions floating around CZcams where they mix in a bass line that's turned up, it's pretty cool to hear how it should have been mixed lol
Great tone and slick as fukkk 🤘🤘
What I love about AJFA is you can pretty much use any song there as backing track 😂
Agree on that! 🤘🏻😜🤘🏻
That's a very underrated comment on that album😂
Lmfao silver linings
I love the clanky, snarling, heavy tone you have there. Sounds amazing! You got some seriously killer skills, too.
As much as I love Jason's original tone, you brought it some new life! I love how much your tone growls.
Thank you! 🤘🏻⚡️🤘🏻
Best bassist ever to this cover .
Thank you 👊🏻
Justice for Kello
This album is a bloody masterpiece, it actually made me believe that Jason isn't the "new guy" anymore.
Live versions that is lol
Keep on rocking hermano, you are amazing
Thank you! 🤘🏻🤩🤘🏻
I’ll treat this as the original recording! Beautiful bass and beautiful playing
Thank you! 🤘🏻
So used to not hearing the bass part on this album. It really kicks ass. 😄
🤘🏻🤩🤘🏻
One of my favourite Metallica songs covered by one of my favourite bassists! Amazing job as always, Kello! \m/
Thank you for watching 🤘🏻😉🤘🏻
It’s so respectful of the original performance while feeling fresh. And the Alembic was the perfect choice. You captured his live tone nicely. I believe the record was done with an ESP prototype. Never cease to be impressed by you Sir.
Thanks a lot! I think Jason user the ESP prototype on the Garage Days EP, and a Wal for Justice. 🤘🏻
Justice is my fav metallica album, and hearing it with bass is really nice so I listen to a lots of bass covers from that album here on youtube. Your take is really good!
Thank you very much 👊🏻
Man you gotta be one of the baddest bassist on the planet. Just found your channel - went from the grudge to shortest straw……my first words were “mmm good man.” Keep sending it!
Welcome aboard! Thank you very much 👊🏻
This is fantastic! And my favorite Metallica album as well! I love hearing takes on it with audible bass :D I think the mixing of this video could be a bit punchier, honest critique, but overall, I LOVE your bassline for this and am so happy you did this :D
Alembic beast, Thanks for bringing the bass sound Out from hiding. Like nonsense they pulled on jason in the studio.Thank you. Dam that Bass sounds so good. When I saw them live during this album. You could feel his Bass guitar And hear it when I saw them at the Gulf coast coliseum I saw them at. Incredible show. I was 13 but I remember it like it was yesterday. When the album came out me and my friends were floored u coukdnt hear jason. We tried everything, it wasnt on our end. After the basstone on garage days we were so ready for his( jason's)debut . Then nothing. ....Gimme him some volume, damnit.
So jealous you got to see them live during justice tour. And yes, it’s a shame no bass mixed properly after the great time on Garage 👊🏻
One of my favourite songs! This is how it should have sounded! Very cool!🔥🔥🔥
🤘🏻🥸🤘🏻
Outstanding 🤘🏽.
How does he get so much grit, feel, and texture from the right hand? Always a tour de force! 🤘🏾
Especially the unaccompanied coda at the end, my fav part 😹
I do attack the strings hard, that helps 🤘🏻
Killed it as always, amazing cover!
Thank you! 👊🏻
Killer tone
Thank you 🤘🏻
I’ve been waiting for this! So heavy and tight, as to be expected from you.
Thanks! 🤘🏻
You never cease to amaze me. Cause you're just that good.
Thank you! 🤘🏻
Brutal!! Keep it up man 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Thanks! Will do! 👊🏻
Your bass tone is fantastic! Love it so much
Thanks! 🤘🏻
Kello!!!!!!!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻💯killed that ! The extra riffing at the end and the finger flick ugh! Man thank you 🙏🏼 for this made my day

Brutal Señor González 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 Un Crack En El Bajo. Saludos Mi Hermano 💪🏻🎸🤘🏻
Muchas gracias ☺️
Sonido impecable y a la vez poderoso, tremenda playera CRS por cierto!
Buen ojo 😉🤘🏻
Would love to hear this with your own bass line. Much as I love Jason, him doubling the guitar line does make for a lot of mud.
SO GNARLY!!! 🤘🏻🧙🏻♂️
🤘🏻
Sooo good!!!
Thank you my friend 🤘🏻🤩🤘🏻
amazing cover my friend
Thanks!
You are awesome!
Thank you 👊🏻
Justice is such a great album. Great cover!😎
Thanks! 🤘🏻
Hermosa! Well done!
Thank you 🤘🏻

Saludos kello . Estaría bien que tocaras un cover de the Doors . A ver qué tal suena algúno de sus éxito con bajo. 👍
Que chulada Master 🤘🏻

That’d be great! 👊🏻
Que belleza de Alembic y excelente Cover saludos...
Muchas gracias 🤘🏻
Buen cover bro, saludos desde la CDMX 🇲🇽
Muchas gracias 🤘🏻
Ohh why can’t you just be my neighbor
I so love your dedication to your instrument please never stop doing
Your wonderful art
If he were my neighbour, I’d grab my own bass and join in.
Thank you 🤘🏻😉🤘🏻
Much respect from 🇹🇷 🤘
Thank you! 🤘🏻
holy tone
🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻
So that’s what Jason was doing on that song. I never knew.
Basically copied what James was doing. On every track on the album. Partly why he couldn't be heard clearly
This is awesome, trying to learn it right now but I can only do that start
Keep practicing and you’ll master it soon 👊🏻
@@kellogc thank you!
Tremendo como simpre ! 🤟🤟🤟

Excelente cover, un sonido brutal
Muchas gracias! La primera que yo aprendí fue Anesthesia 🤘🏻
@@kellogc joder que dios, que se aprende el solo de cliff burton antes que cualquier otra canción de metallica
Super good!
🤘🏻😉🤘🏻
Great job! This song sounds much better with bass!
🤘🏻🤩🤘🏻
Con esto has hecho todos los honores que nunca recibió Newsted!! SALUD de nuevo!! :))

Eso es brutalmente hermoso!!! Lástima que James y Lars no dejaron que Jason luciera ... Muy buena ejecución 🤘
Muchas gracias 👊🏻

Muchas gracias 🤘🏻
Coolls Man..👍🙏😊🤘
🤘🏻
Tone Beast! Stay tasty my friend.
Thanks! 👊🏻
I wouldn't mind listening to AJFA with that kind of bass tone and volume :D I totally slept on that album when I was a kid because it sounded weak and dated to me, even though I didn't know a thing about production and instruments back then. Mind blowing how important good bass tone is.
You’re correct, most people are careless about bass tone until they hear the difference it makes. 🤘🏻🤩🤘🏻
@@kellogc yes.
This tone is incredible! Can you please do more from AJFA?
Lo bueno del "... and justice for all" es que las canciones son como pistas sin bajo directamente así que se puede practicar con el bajo como si no lo hubiera jajajaj.
Jajaja eso que ni que! 🤘🏻😉
al fin podemos oir el bajo en esta cancion jajaja.... shortest kello
🤘🏻🥸🤘🏻
MORTAL!!!! Eres un MAQUINA! KELLO!!! AGUANTE!!!
Saludos desde Chile!!!
PD: Algun Cover de DEATH, CYNIC O ATHEIST??? Estaría "Chido"
Muchas gracias! Abrazo hasta Chile 🤘🏻
Kello rocks. Yeah man. 👍😁
Thanks! 🤘🏻
like cliff playing bass👍
👊🏻☺️
