Songs with Great Basslines/Grooves?

Limpbizkit - Re-Arranged
White Stripes - Seven Nation Army


Cant think of more

 

If you like great basslines, I recommend listening to the Red Hot Chili Peppers, a lot of their songs awesome basslines.

 

Erm...
Phoenix doesn't do the bass on Runaway, Brad did. And when Phoenix does it live...it's not slap. And Brad didn't slap on HT..what are you talking about?


Forgotten - Linkin Park
The Maxwell Murder - Rancid
A lot of old Taproot...RHCP...
Tool - Aenima, Schism, Parabol/Parabola
some 311...

Chris: The White Stripes don't have a bassist...

 

KoRn - Freak on a leash
Linkin Park- Forgotten
P.O.D. - Revolution
Staind - Fade
Crazy Town - Decorated

In genereal, i believe KoRn's Fieldy is my fav. bassist. His style is so awesome (his bass's treble is so high i sometimes think it's the drums ), and even though he sound too raw and not melodic, he and Silveria are the best rythm couple (Drums+ Bass).

 

lp-PPR:KUT and original.

WTF!!! I saw the title and was SO going to put that down.... Damn you lol. Yeah isn't it a baritone guitar or something?

I like Quarashi's song "Baseline". Pretty good baseline from what little I know of bass.

I did a little looking around in the HT booklet...and your right to an extent. Ian Hornbeck played bass on Papercut, A Place For My Head, and Forgotten.
Scott Koziol played on One Step Closer and was the touring bassist.


Hmm....wait a second...what song do I not see under Ian Hornbeck? Runaway...ah yes thats it. BRAD DID RUNAWAY. invention of its time or whatever thought Phoenix did the bass on Runaway. He didnt. It's called a correction. Thanks.

 

Please, calm down, guys. We can at least agree that "Runaway" has a great bassline without arguing, can't we?




Another good song is "Revolution" by P.O.D. The bassline in that song is wicked awesome.

 

Meh, Runaway really doesn't have that great of a bassline to me, it's more like regular LP. Simple. But it's his opinion, and I respect it.



I listened to the songs I thought had good basslines, but couldn't remember the names, here are all of them:


Taproot - Believed (Awesome)
Taproot - Can't Not (Awesome)
Taproot - Hate Myself

Crazy Town - Decorated
Crazy Town - Battle Cry
Crazy Town - Candy Coat (Awesome)
Crazy Town - Change (Awesome)

Disturbed - Liberate
Disturbed - Bound
Disturbed - Want
Disturbed - Numb

Linkin Park - Forgotten

Tool - Schism
Tool - Aenima
Tool - Parabola
Tool - Third Eye (Awesome)
Tool - Opiate

A Perfect Circle - Weak and Powerless

Stone Sour - Bother
Stone Sour - Inhale
Stone Sour - Get Inside

Rancid - The Maxwell Murder (Awesome)

Flaw - Whole
Flaw - Payback

Staind - Fade
Staind - Safe Place(Awesome)

I just watched Runaway (LIT Edition) and...nope, no slapping. Do you even know what slapping is? It doesn't sound like he's slapping, he's using a pick.
