amzn.to/32kOw0n
Do you have timestamps for this!? I'm trying to figure out what song you played before miss murder - AFI. It sounds abit ska esque but hard and fast. / ska core
I didn't expect the palm muting to mute the entire band. Maybe I should try this when at practice trying to tune
It’s what CZcams does for copyright.
Yea I know I get what your saying I was trying to learn some punk shit probably gonna go to this punk bands house one day and jam
So,
root notes - fidlar - no waves
5th notes - blink 182 - romeo & rebecca
palm muting - the police - can't stand losing you
open note drone - dead kennedys - holiday in cambodia
bass chords - strung out - firecracker
skate punk rhytm - millencolin?
bass triads - choking victim - 5 finger discount
octaves - afi - miss murder
arpeggios - ?
hammer ons and pull offs - jawbreaker - want
walking bass lines - rancid - old friend
karl alvarez - descendents - i'm the one
tremolo picking - nofx - the decline
thanks guys
the palm muting does sound familiar. gonna slap myself if I find out it's something I know already
Pretty sure it’s Can’t Stand Losing You by The Police
BLOODY LITTLE ANTLERS that’s what I thought
Bass Chords: Strung Out - Firecracker
The skate punk rhythm is Reeko by NOFX.
I'm filling a petition to rename the 5th Note as the 182 Note.
And the skate punk rhythm should just be called fat mike
@@jgenoese How about Cokie the Clown instead?
Signed
Palm muting was done perfectly 😂
These seem like good techniques in general
romeo and rebecca is super underrated but it's one of the first songs i learned on bass, along with carousel
@Dominick Garcia love that one
I love both them songs
1:58 ah yes palm muting when the audio is muted
Walking bass lines are the one! Great video and playing as always.
dude, the mix in the end got really good 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
You really went above and beyond in this video man.
This was great, brilliant vid! Definitely encouraging me to mix up my bass playing.
Now, that's what I call bass playing!😊👍🎸
Fidlar at the beggining=automatic sub
Awesome stuff! Thanks a lot for this video!
Good use of your time. I enjoyed watching this!
Josh Fossgreen has an excellent video analyzing what's going in in "I'm the One" worth a watch.
Great video. Well done and nice pbass sound.
You're a beast bro! Keep holdin down the low end!
Love your videos man
Great sound!
You do serious bass, Davie504 he's good but now it's going towards comedy stuff. Good job sir, just suscribed.
Cool Twin Peaks shirt man 🤙
well played this is very usefull.
You went a bit further in this than in the guitar lesson - the backing track contains some techniques that aren't present in the original video, notably reggae chords and double stop bends. I say that calls for a part 2!
First example is Fidlar and is wearing a twin peak shirt 10/10
I come back to this video for motivation A LOT
Fucking awesome! I'm glad you're alive!
There’s only one technique in Punk. You just turn it up and go for it!
I would donate to the patron but I’m broke. 😭 but for real sugar in your gas tank is a tune.
Sugar? In a gas tank? ever tried what would happen?!
Punk Rock Bass Sound =Louderrrrrrrr
Thanks for the video! Can you up a track list of the songs? Would be great!
14 - Play with fingers
15 - mute unplayed open strings
I wish your videos had track lists :(
So useful
This was good just to HEAR. Nevermind the techniques. ;-)

Best punk bass channel ever. Greetings from Belarus.
Great video. Your recordings are always so well done. Was that leftöver crack for the triads? Sounded like it buts it's been awhile since I've listened to them much. If not what was it? Edit: Nevermind, it's choking victim "5 finger discount", I constantly mix those two bands up.
I'm curious, what sort of pick do you use when you play bass? I'm primarily a guitarist so when I do use a pick for bass I've used a Jazz III or just a basic fender medium, but the Jazz III always feels too small and I snap fender picks too easily. I don't use picks on bass a lot because I'm often playing other genres, but I'm curious to know what sort of pick you use because it sounds great.
Tortex and or Tortex Flex
🐢
Amazing
Needs more bass!!
Men you’re good ! Great techniques and sound. What do you use as overdrive ? It sounds awesome, just a little bit of grit. Punk is often underrated by others musician, but I know only a few could play what you did here
I have a brother who has been playing guitar for years and he’s super advanced and I learned bass and guitar a few years after him and showed him wasting time by blink 182 and he couldn’t play it so punk riffs can get crazy
Well he did learn it but it was actually very tricky for him
I thought there's gonna be BR/JAY bassline somewhere but still awesome work bro
BASS AND TWIN PEAKS?!?? YESSSS
Matt Freeman. Old Friend. Good choice!
I thought you were starting to play Schism for a second lol
@5:50 🎶 Good morning, heartache. You’re like an old friend come and see me again. 🎶
Thanks
Loved it!! May I ask what the song is you used by the hammer ons?
Dave K want - jawbreaker ...such a good riff
bass triads, damn. looks hard enough for me haha
Just takes a little practice.
What Is the name of the song in hammer on and pull offs?
You are pretty damn good, how did you improve your 8th note picking/strumming?
use a metronome....and over many weeks slowly increase the speed....the main thing is consistancy/perfection, which means practicing this slow is far better than constantly trying your speed limit and play those notes shitty. Record what you do when it gets faster and listen how "perfect" you are or not. It could take you multiple months to get really fast and consistent. Every great guitarist will tell you that "practicing slow makes you fast." Start at 40 bpm which is good for a beginner......work your way up to 60bpm with 16th notes. Spider walking (1,2,3,4 fingers on 1,2,3,4 frets, then move up one fret) while you do this will also sync your hands. Best advice you ever got :D
@@wolfdenband thank you!
Hey Man....you rock! What band do you play in?
I gotta show my friends root notes
Dat rooooooot notes
which bass strings do you use?
Hi, i'm italian luthier and i build only headless basses and guitars
so...?
Twin Peaks shirt
What distortion are you using?
Karl Alvarez is a monster
What is song in arpeggios teknique?
What pick do you use?
Pretty much dissected the way I play my bass into one video here
Did you mute the palm mute
HOLIDAY IN CAMBODIA
Name of the first song??
Is a cover no waves?
I thought you were playing made up tracks until Miss Murder started. I definitely need some punk lessons😅
If you never heard Holiday in Cambodia before, yes
I came as soon as I heard No Waves.
Should I use a pick if I'm playing punk bass?
For the love of your index finger - yes.
Sounds good but the bass volume is kinda low or the dirt of your sound is getting lost in the mix
Fidlar!!
Just a quick little warning, be careful when playing with octaves. It's easy to get a disco sound when it wasn't your intention at all.
Fuck it disco punk
Picking is so difficult to learn on bass. I'm finding silencing the other strings very hard when strumming..that's not an issue with finger playing which has challenges of its own
Yeah it can be tough when starting out, especially if you're more used to playing with your fingers. I'd recommend aiming for one string when you pick - rather than playing everything at once and relying on your other hand to mute the strings you're not fretting, like a guitarist would do. This will give you a much cleaner sound anyway, as bass strings are super thick, so it doesn't really sound good when you're hitting multiple strings at once, unless you're fretting a chord or something.
Yess JAWBREAKER!
With all respect, don't get me wrong, but why do people insist in saying that blink 182 post enema of state is punk?
is the 5:10 part a real song?Nicely done
Its "want" by Jawbreaker
You so Fuck Amazingggggggg
That 4 string says Fender, but it looks identical to my cheap Crate Electra.
What’s the bass chords song? It sounds so familiar lol
czcams.com/video/DPhzsSJ-B4k/video.html
This one.
What was the first song?
No waves by Fidlar 💛
@@teresavaldez8394 thank you
Long live PUP
Help our bassist does power chords
dear god... he can play root notes... we're all fucked.
Good stuff but bass chords and bass triads are the same thing in essence so that can be listed once.
Well no, a triad isn't played at the same time like a chord is. With bass chords you can use any combination of notes to create them, whereas triads are just the root, the 3rd and the 5th every time.
instant im the best bloody bass player now 😂😂
jk dont take it seriously i suck
First song please
REVENGE MCR, TØP FIDLAR - No Waves
Deadman much appreciated
sprite poleski I gotchu ✌🏼
Waggy 44 I disagree but see what you mean, I love FIDLAR but I wish the bass was more prevalent in the mix of their recording
I’ve never seen anyone play bass with their left thumb like that. Your a guitar player aren’t you ; )
The laws need to be changed regarding all this copyright bullshit. It's actually counterproductive because there have been loads of artists I've discovered just by learning a random riff on youtube and I'd buy their music because of it. Also, every single one of these big millionaire artists would have lent and copied cassettes and vinyls when they were starting out, but now it's wrong when someone else does it! It's like they're shutting the gate behind them.
Is it just me because when you where palm muteint I couldn’t here u
youtube probably cut it out for copyright
CZcams's copyrights sucks
Triads are real same to triads
I don't think the word technique and punk belong in the same sentence.
Why?
@@martinjohansson203
Anarchy
@@martinjohansson203 punk originated actually as a genre based on the no-knowledge on music theory. Gratefully, some bassists took the time to practice some techniques and use better influences and creativity, because that's the magic of the bass :)
@@juanchicabeza7587 yeah, i know all about it. I was just curious since there are alot of technique in punk these days
Punk bass “technique “? Play the root and if you’re rally fancy a fifth over and over is not “technique “
Yes i know. I noticed this, but anyway who cares, the video is nice. Anyway it is true these are not techniques in the sense of technique, just tips, demonstrations of a particular genre, bands...bass lines and how they sound/how they can be practiced
@rocket grunt
What?
@rocket grunt Metallica covers??? who's the kid into pop music ???? I don't give a shit about commercial pablum for teenage chronic masturbaters. Go,listen to some Mingus or Ron Carter and we can discus bassists like adults.
Either you play bass or guitar or whatever YOU HAVE TO HAVE FUN DOING WHAT YOUR DOING
AFI are no longer punk. lol
Technique 1: own an ernie ball
Punks don’t carry spare batteries 😂
Pick
Karl honestly might be the most ridiculous punk bass player ever
Bájale un poco la guitarra , la idea es que se tiene que escuchar el bajo .
no es culpa de la guitarra, es tu oído...
@@emza4527 , no dije que sea culpa de la guitarra , dije que es el volumen . Te gusta hablar al pedo .
Pick and no finger, this is illegal!!
