    Fan of Forest since I’ve heard Beyond Creation. Glad to see him on this First Fragment playthroughs. As a bass player, there is a lot of things you can learn about Dominic’s playing. His technique is surreal, his left hand picking, the tapping, the melodic aspects on his solos, his groove and slap, his tone, etc. A very unique bass player. Hands down to one of the best metal bass players ever!

      For real, he's been my favorite bass players for a few years now since I discovered him back when he was in Beyond Creation.
      I took bass lessons from him for a couple of months and he's a very pleasant and cool guy, and in those 2 months my technique improved tremendously!
      Hopefully one day I'll meet him at a First Fragment or Augury show and buy him a beer haha :D

      I saw him a few times dating back to I think 15 years ago. Every time I saw him come through it was with another band lol. Back then I thought he was the best bassist in the world. But this new album proved that he had another level of talent he could unlock. This new album is amazing!

      I'd add Erlend Caspersen in Spawn of Possession and Andrew Kim in Inferi to anything Dominic is in and Obscura. They all have amazing bass lines that stands out and it's a joy to watch any playthroughs from them, so good, so complex and so relaxed playing.
