FrenchToast: Either you like mainstream and go with the flow or you don't. Just fucking pick one.
For electric bass in Metal I wanna say Martin Mendez, John Myung and Steve DiGiorgio. If you honestly like Flea you should check out Les Claypool. Although I haven't really listened all that much to Primus (and I don't care for that kind of music, or RHCP's) I know that they have a similary style, but the difference is that Les is efficient. I sincerely hope I'm not talking out of my ass with that last paragraph. |

And I haven't ever gotten paid to play, but I do have a musical background, mostly in Jazz. Both my parents were once proffesional musicians, and my dad is friends with many successful Jazz musicians, I've just never picked up on that kind of music. |

I dont like RHCP at all. I will give you that the bass work in that band is very good. Les claypool is better though. I have seen both bands live and I have to give it to primis on that one. French is right about new music sucking though. I think bands like nickle back are the downfall of music. Emo is so gay it makes me want to gouge out my eardrums with a spoon.

As far as bassists, I cannot think of one greater than Victor Wooten. He has a couple songs, lets see here, um... A Show of Hands, Classical Thump... I cannot think of any others off hand but I love those. And that list of guitarists earlier, no Stevie Ray Vaughan? |

Sure there's good music nowadays, you just have to dig back to the oldies. I really can't think of one band that's still making music (except RHCP and Jamiroquai) that's really good.

Bassist, opening a can of worms: Geddie Lee.
I hate Rush, and everything about them, but... I can't deny that talent. |

ok 80s music did not suck, 80s music was the foundation for everything, >EVERYTHING< now.
and there is a hell of alot of good music around now, but if you hate mtv and then you watch mtv your obivously gonna think there isnt, find a scene and get into it and youll be happy ok |
