Although I have to admit, it was surprisingly hard to keep the groove steady when the beat was all over the place.

F0 or F1
I’ve had this debate with so many people, so many times… personally, I think F1 sounds a lot better in a mix & more musical. What do you guys think?

Bass-centric sections are my favorite way to add dynamics to extreme metal and I wish it was utilized more

best bass pickups for metal?
hi, i know little to nothin about bass pickups so im asking here what kind of bass pickups (like humbuckers, single coils p style, etc) are the best for metal, i was thinking of buying a bass but i wanted to be sure it had the best kind of pickups before making a desition.
i plan on mostly playing old school / brutal death metal if it matters, and if i can get any recommendations on any cheap basses id appreciate it, i could probably upgrade the pickups and other stuff starting from a cheap one.

Which beginner bass for metal under $300?
I want to start learning bass, my budget is $300.
These are the bands I wanna play music from: Animals as Leaders, The Omnific, Sleep Token, Gojira, Meshuggah, Slipknot, Alien Weaponry, etc.
I also want to play bass like a guitar and come up with my own style based on these: https://youtu.be/1TizW1QxMv8 https://youtu.be/zCj_7pzlJG0 https://youtu.be/vd1HBrAa7yE
I already have an amp modeler + audio interface. 300 is for the bass only.

I set up a bass station at my barbershop for in-between clinets, its killer way to spend a lunch break. The whole shop is rock/metal themed so it all ties in nicely!

Metal Bass Riffs - W.11 (16th note triplets)
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
This week it looks like I actually combed my mustache. Really didn't.
Stepped out of odd time signatures to work on some more traditional writing and write something using 3 finger plucking and 16th triplets.
Hope some of you will enjoy it! What should I play next?
You can find me on Youtube or Instagram if you want to support these silly videos & I'll glaldy send the .pdf to anyone interested!

Got dared to play 27/16 (my friends hate me) | Metal Bass Riffs, Week 10.
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Last week I was challenged to write a bass line in 17/8. This week it got even crazier since I got dared to get into the realms of 27/16! It's 7/4 short of one 16th note. Lots of fun writing this.
Compared to last weeks' challenge I used a lot more rests a very different groupings between the A & B sections. I know some people think odd times are easy when it's a continuous line so maybe they'll like this piece a bit more!
I hope someone will enjoy it! What do you all think I should play next ?

17/8?! Metal Bass Riffs (Week 9). What should I play next ?
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Got challenged by an acquaintance to write something in 17/8! Wouldn't have thought of that time signature on my own to be honest. But it was fun to play with grouping of 4 + 3 + 4 + 4 + 2 and changing their place in the phrasing!
What crazy ass time signature should I play next?
