Bass and stuff.
Atheist - An Incarnation's Dream (1990 demo version, Bass Cover)
It's been a minute since I did one of these, and I went with an impulsive choice that was a song I happened to really be feeling as of late - this is the 1990 demo version of An Incarnation's Dream, featuring the bass mastery of Roger Patterson. It all really speaks for itself, it's no secret this is what I love, but there are a lot of great things worth mentioning.
I've never seen anyone cover or transcribe this amazing version of the song, I never even thought I'd be able to do it, (very few cover this tune to begin with), so I decided upon myself that I'd try to learn it as accurately as possible in order to create the most faithful (and only) cover the internet has seen. It's impossible to do what Roger did, and the closest there will ever be to that is Tony Choy's phenomenal work on the final version of Unquestionable Presence from 1991, but this is my personal take on Roger's lines.
It'd be impossible to bring up my favorite parts of this song to play and listen to, so I'm just going to list a few. Right off the bat there's the root-fifth-octave arpeggios on every tremolo in the main riff. Those really complete that part for me, so I had to include it. It's very Steve Harris like and gives the riff a certain bounce and groove. The breakdown at 1:20 is iconic and the tone is the absolute fattest thing on the planet. Pops out so well yet has a massive low end. At 1:36 there's an awesome natural harmonic included that I tried hard to really articulate (as I did every other note, but that thing really pops out). At 2:28, there's also an insane octave jump that is only done once in that riff, it's such a cool addition. All of these details I really tried to play with such an attention to the musicality and detail as Roger did. There's too many for me to truly make a comprehensive list. It's all amazing. No playing and tone was ever as articulate as his.
Anyways, enough of my rambling, as I said before, it all speaks for itself. The best!

Possessed - The Heretic (Bass Cover)
Переглядів 2972 місяці тому
It's been a couple years since I tackled some Possessed, but as they're in my favorite tuning (E standard), and a huge influence to my songwriting, I should definitely do it more 😂 I think this is damn near my favorite song of theirs! Beyond the Gates is definitely my favorite album too. Something about it is just extra intense, fast, dark, and twisted! It's everything I love about Possessed. R...
Cannibal Corpse - Staring Through the Eyes of the Dead (Bass Cover)
Переглядів 1,6 тис.2 місяці тому
Figured I'd finally do another one of these. This one has been covered by others a bit more often than other songs I've tackled have, but I thought it was worth a shot to get in a different bassist and artist that you don't always see me play - Alex Webster of Cannibal Corpse. There's some details a lot of covers tend to be missing I think, such as the ascending root, harmony, octave, harmony p...
Malevolent Creation - Dominated Resurgency (Bass Cover)
Переглядів 7613 місяці тому
A quick one I did because I felt like it'd be really fun. A tune I really love from a record that I dig a lot more than some people do. In fact, this is one of my favorite songs from them. So intense, dark, and ripping. Like much of this album, which is their first in C# tuning and I really love that sound for them. It's funny because I was just listening to Atheist's Elements today, another re...
Beginning of Sorrow Tapping Lick Preview
Переглядів 6063 місяці тому
A sneak peak of what I've been learning, Beginning of Sorrow by Suffocation! The part where I stop in this video is as far as I know in the song, and I know every part leading up to this (meaning I've got down about 3/4 or so of the song), but I just wanted to highlight this section because of the part that begins 22 seconds into this video. That thing has baffled me for years and it's such an ...

Getting back into my usual playthrough videos since I'm back home after almost 50 days! Thought I'd finally do a full cover of a Suffocation tune. Their stuff is easily some of the most complex out there, total riff salad. Different kind of technical from my usual pace with Atheist, Sadus, etc. I was considering doing a tune from Breeding the Spawn, my favorite album, but I happened to already ...
Atheist - Beyond (Bass Cover)

It's been a huuuge while since I've covered any Atheist. In fact, last time I did, it was way before I even tried overlaying the track over the video audio and listening with headphones. That helped make these things get much tighter. Anyways, I figured I'd do one again because there is something irresistible about Roger's playing. He is my favorite bassist ever, and he has a couple things that...
Confessor - Alone (Bass Cover)

I'm slowing things down a bit, but I've been totally wanting to give this a shot for ages and I finally mustered the courage to sit down and pick apart all the wild timing and riffs that encompass the one of a kind band: Confessor. I've always loved doom metal, so when I heard there was this proggy/technical doom metal band out there, I had to hear it. Such began my love for Confessor. I tried ...

Now back to the regularly scheduled madness. I'd been wanting to do this one for a long time, and I always have a lot of fun (and some excellent practice!) when I go to cover some Hellwitch. As always, I learned by ear and tried to capture all the details of the original recording, while adding my own thing in little spots when I feel it fits or says something that adds value to my performance....

About time I did some more from one of my very favorite "pure" thrash metal bands. I'd done this song before aaaages ago. In my pre-Facebook days 😆. However, I wanted to tackle it with my improved playing and practice ethic, as well as play along to the awesome re-recorded version. This version of the song has an extended bass intro, just a couple of licks, but to me, they're so catchy and just...
Sadus - Valley of Dry Bones (Bass Cover)

Sadus - Valley of Dry Bones I supposed it's time to get back to fretted bass, as I can never deny that attack and the way it fits into such extreme music like Sadus. I decided to tackle another from A Vision of Misery, as it has my favorite bass performance Steve ever did as a whole. Just crazy stuff. Even more than Through the Eyes of Greed, this is probably the most intense bass cover I've ev...
Obituary - Godly Beings (Fretless Bass Cover)
Переглядів 4,4 тис.8 місяців тому
A super short one that is bound to probably confuse both purists who don't want this played on a fretless and with small added licks, as well as those who want to see me play technical stuff. Haha. I suppose it's a risky concept. I learned this song a few days ago, only ever tried it on this fretless. I really wanted to do an Obituary song (off of Slowly We Rot, of course, for that E standard t...
Sadus - Certain Death (Fretless Bass Cover)
Переглядів 4,5 тис.8 місяців тому
Here's another fretless reimagining that I decided to do today. And yes, the original was not recorded on a fretless, contrary to urban legend. In fact, most of the music on the first three Sadus albums was recorded on fretted bass. The only fretless part to my knowledge is the bass solo in "Echoes of Forever". All of my dorky fact sharing aside, I thought it would be sick to give this one anot...

I figured for my first ever post featuring me using fretless bass, I'd take a song that was originally recorded on fretted bass and make it (somewhat) my own with the sound that I am slowly developing on fretless bass. It was between this one and an Obituary tune, I wanted to limit to things that were in E standard, because I feel practicing endlessly in standard makes every other tuning a bree...
Death - Flattening of Emotions (Bass Playthrough)

I just had to do another one from Human. I don't think I need to explain further why I find Human to have the best bass work in Death's catalog, as well as why it is my favorite Death album of all. It's just simply off the charts. I ended up playing this one a bit raw, but I suppose it fits this very raw (in energy) song. It's incredible how the technicality of the band, especially Sean and Ste...

Great Cover 🤘🏻👊🏻🤘🏻 is the song on e standard tuning?!
@@andreasevolution727 Yes, it is! All Sadus songs from the first three albums are E standard tuning.
@@evilevie87 thanks for the information dude appreciate it!! keep it up blastin metal 🤘🏻👊🏻🤘🏻
Nice 🤘
Do you take requests for covers?
@@RepublicFREEman I'll surely take into consideration whatever is recommended to me!
I love seeing and hearing the very infrequent use of power chords on the bass guitar. It adds so much depth and emphasis to parts. Love the fucking bass tone to by the way.
I love the way you play the bass and your nail technique is marvelous! You have earned my respect & my subscription to your YT channel ❤ 🔥
@@Bryan-Zarate-503 Thank you so much for such kind words!
Killer!!!
Favourite song and you nailed it🔥
Amazing cover, amazing tone, amazing work - keep it up! 🤘
Well done. 2:10 especially is crazy. Now I'm waiting for some Lars K Norberg bass lines :) (I myself have been meaning to do Moving Spirit for a long time but I'm always putting it off)
Thanks! Long ago I had learned the first minute or so of Spinning, it was super fun to play, I never really went further with it. I'd love to. His work is amazing. I'd love to hear you do that stuff too!
Well, damn
this is crazy, how long have you been playing bass?🤘
@@n0_ra327 Thanks! I've been playing for about 5 years now.
@@evilevie87That's sick. This video and other ones inspired me to try to play more complicated songs, thanks for sharing your skills!
@@n0_ra327 That's wonderful to hear! Inspiration is important, keep on playing that challenging stuff!
Very cool, as always.
Goddamn girl you continue to impress
@@Allie_in_Chains Thank you! Trying my best!
Respect!- This is awesome!
Great to finally hear the bass parts of Human. That was the only downside of that album, that the bass was buried in the mix. They more than made up for that on ITP of course. Great performance, the three finger picking is a joy to behold!
hell yeah
this is so cool wow
🔥🔥🔥🔥loving it
🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘yessir killer bass tone
awesome video
Yeuss!
Too bad the song itself is so far off. Would have been awesome to have you leveled out with the song!!! Well, redo? ;)
Fucking great
Very nice! Love the sound and the playing! I am interested in the string gauges that you are using. Can you please share this? I think it needs ot be at least 120-125 for the C string. Thanks!
I use .105 for the C. It seems to hold up just fine. Not the skinniest strings by any means, but probably not as heavy as some might recommend. I hope this helps a little. I'd say just go with what feels right
🔥💕
Speaking of E standard, you ever gonna try your hand at playing some Cynic?
@@PhantomLink16 One day! I've been listening to them a lot lately. Been really eyeing some stuff off Traced. Just been working on so much original stuff and shows lately.
@@evilevie87 I ordered a 6 string fretless as well as some flatwound nylons (almost 80 bucks, ouch!) So I'll try my hand at learning some Beyond Creation and Obscura
@@evilevie87 Do you happen to use I-gram btw?
this is so cool
Get it!!!
great job! what you using to record?
@@rodolformartins Just my phone and the mic on that! Unfortunately I don't have any direct input stuff to record my bass. I overlay the music in a video editing software
@@evilevie87 your playing sounds that good with a phone mic? holy shit
An other banger, good job !
🤘🤘🤘
E standard is best tuning, fully agree :) I watched 0:55 thinking "hey, this is a neat simple little variation", and then I read the description -- well done!
Alex would be proud!
I'd hope so! If I ever was complimented from him, it'd be one of the most insane things!
great work Evie :3
Discovered this channel yesterday, You're literally so good! Keep it up!
Thank you so much!
Excellent cover! 🔥🔥🔥
Next song "hammer smashed face", from the previous album CC.
@@aurelian3401 I did it once before I had this UA-cam channel, but I'd love to do it again 😊
I'd love to hear 'Force fed Broken Glass'!!! No one has done that yet😐 There are million Hammer Smashed Faces in you tube...
@@janneplanman6433 That's my favorite song from The Bleeding, and maybe my favorite song from Cannibal Corpse ever! I'd love to do it. That tapping lick at the end is the best
@@evilevie87 Now we are talking😍😍😍🔥🤘
EVIE COVERING CC YAAAAAYY
Super 🔥
This was soo good
yay, you did a cannibal corpse cover ^_^
so sick
Evie, infact, Human had those perfect bass lines back then. Thank you very much for this cover. It means alot. <3
Heya :) Your channel got recommended to me by a commenter under a recent Coroner vid I did. Nice to see more bass covers of bands such as WatchTower and Atheist. Also interesting that a Blaze picture is prompting me to subscribe at the end of the video (how could I not???). The unlikely intersection of fandoms will never cease to amaze me.
Oh wow, that's very interesting that it still shows my Blaze profile photo. I thought I had changed it to an old ish photo of me. Thank you for the kind words! I have watched your covers for a while now. That one of Semtex Revolution was amazing! So was Water. You rule.
@@evilevie87 Thanks for the kind words (too) :] The Blaze pic is probably still set for your G**gle account. The account merge many years ago has been nothing but a hassle.
Would you ever do a gear showcase video? Also what is it you're doing with your right hand around 1:16? Btw I've been learning Living Monstrosity and the Philosopher. Still got a lotta work to do.
Admittedly, I don't use any fancy gear. It's mostly very budget stuff. And I don't use any pedals, just straight through the amp. For most of these videos I'm using an Orange combo amp. I'd totally do a gear showcase if you'd like though. Around 1:16 I'm doing a kind of strum of a power chord with my nails, people may refer to it as a "flamenco" style strum. You have to flick your fingers across the three strings. Those are two great songs, admittedly I never learned The Philosopher 😆 I know mostly stuff from Human, which had my favorite bass lines on a death album. I hope you stick to it!
@@evilevie87 Hell yeah, I'd love a showcase! Btw do you use Insta? I have pics of my Bass and some of my Guitars on there, and if I get off my ass I might post some clips or something as well.
@@evilevie87 Thought I replied to this already? Yeah, I'll keep at it and I'd love to see a showcase! Any tips on galloping/triplets?
@@PhantomLink16 Start with the two finger technique like Steve Harris, then move to three finger technique. The first songs I started playing that had three finger picking were early Testament tunes. Stuff from The New Order. Just work on training the muscles to get a smooth movement from ring finger to index finger (or the other way around if that's more comfortable for you)
@@evilevie87Does UA-cam not allow you to share insta links? I have an 89 dollar fretless coming next week to hit that ITP tone, but it wouldn't let me post.
Oh yeah! Great job 🤟🤟🤟
Wow! This sounds dope. The tone fits just perfectly for the song. Great job man! 🙌 What tunning did you use here?
D standard tuning! I'm glad the tone fits!
That was great 👌
That was great. Much appreciated🤘🏾
