  • Interview With John Myung - Bass Musician Magazine
    Dream Theater has been on the cutting edge of pioneering Progressive Rock since the mid-eighties. Just this past October, they released their fifteenth album, “A View from the Top of the World” and it is a smoking hot example of their iconic sound.
    Founding member John Myung has been the powerhouse on bass that has been driving the band’s low-end. I have had the great pleasure of listening to the new album more than a few times and I am stoked to have this opportunity to chat with John via Skype.

    I was enthralled with John Myung's bass-playing ever since I was first introduced to Dream Theater! Amazing work! I'm a drummer, and obviously a fan of guys like Portnoy and Peart, but man, Myung is a BEAST on the BASS!

    Legends say that this man coincidentally doesn’t speak in human tongues, but rather in bass notation. The voice you’re basically hearing right now is just an AI text-to-speech translating his unique phrasing into English words.

    Very much a quiet guy. Ive never heard him laugh in 35 years lol. Very good bassist. Very aggressive plucking style like geddy lee. Makes a lot of fret noise on the bass. I was always curious how they recorded him to try and minimize that. Great interview though.
