Hell yeah great job! That picking technique with your thumb is really clean sounding, bery impressive. I like all eras of Death, but something about Leprosy hits me the best. Would love to see your take on Choke on It one day. Lots of oddball changes on that song.
@@LindenPoirier yea its definitely something that needs some practice. I can go pretty fast with it but I do lack the precision for more complex parts.
@@NewAeonWarlord When I get my guitar back, I'd like to figure out a way of using that technique in conjunction with palm muting. Not sure how, but it'd be worth it to avoid the long process of getting fast with a pick lol
Awesome! Having just bought a bass guitar and I was figuring this song out, I found this video! Awesome and very helpful! Are you a lefty or did you mirror this because you're smart? Because I found it very helpful to have a mirror image instead of watching a right-handed bassist playing this. And another question, why do you play (at the end) D7 D3 D8 and no G2 D3 G3? Newb question maybe...
Thanks for reaching out, glad it's helped you! Yes, I am a real lefty, and the main reason I played it that way is for tonal consistency, since I like the way the D string sounds and feels more. I also like the way it looks more in video, but that's trivial. Both are perfectly fine ways of playing it and if you're still getting comfortable with the fretboard, the G2 D3 G3 way is definitely gonna be more consistent.
@@LindenPoirier Thanks! Much appreciated! I've looked through your covers and before I reach that level, it will take me a lot of years! But I do love the Old Skool Death Metal! But I'm sure that is easy stuff for you.
@@DEADLINETV Some of it is! Some of those guys really know how to rip, though. If you come across anything on my channel you wanna try and learn, I've got tabs available for just about any of them.
Ah, that would work well too! I should try that sometime, probably utilizes the same muscles involved with standard guitar picking more so than double thumbing.
@@LindenPoirier Yes, I find double thumb tricky for "super" fast playing, I think I need to practice it more, but I'm comfortable using the maniac style I was talking about with my pointy finger. My thing I have to work on as a bass player, is strumming a consistent note for a long time using my fingers; it's the only reason I bring this up. (I believe the ladies love it too for different reasons) Thanks for the inspiration.
i came for a bass cover only to find another video where the bass is mixed too low to actually hear anything interesting from the player. this almost sounds like the studio version so why even bother if you arent gonna actually show off your ability to play the song and bury yourself under the mix.
DAAAMN! That thumb!
It's at that awkward in-between tempo where it's a little fast (but doable) for sustained thumb but too slow to use my two-finger tremolo technique 😅
OMG, that thumb technique!!! What a beast!
Thanks dude!
Great cover! That left hand thumb technique is so incredibly solid!
Thanks dude! Always a work in progress but glad it's coming along

Thanks dude! I'm not super versed in their discography tbh, but if this one's received well you can bet I'll do some more :)
i remember when this song was new .I saw Death play in a small club in Toronto back in the eighties........Great Bass cover
Thanks dude!
I love your tone!!
Thanks dude!
Pink color has never been so metal 🤘
Hell yeah🤘
Straight classic. Straight rippin' it up.
Thanks dude! I can always rely on you to check it out
Very nice! love the doublethumb-stuff, very clean!
Thanks man! Took me a while to get it up to speed. Pretty much the fastest I can go for more than a couple bars

@@LindenPoirier 😁 that would be cool
Awesome as always bro. Fantastic!
Thanks man, appreciate it!
Amazing technique !
Thanks dude!

@@LindenPoirier Thanks for your reply! Makes sense. I have this video on repeat. Well done!
@@DEADLINETV no prob! Lemme know if you want tabs for any songs on the channel.

Sick tone man, cheers!!
Thanks man!
1:45 When you ask her to marry you, but she says she’s just not sure…
Accurate hahah
amazing right hand technique
Thanks dude!
nice work, make more videos like this please!!!
Thanks dude, got at least two more with tabs coming!
Isn't it amazing how much easier double thumbing becomes when you start thinking about striking _past_ the string rather than _into_ it?
100%! I'm reminded of that when I try thumping on the high C string and there's nothing to catch my thumb on the downstroke, lol.
Muy buen cover amigo
iGracias!
Great job, man!
Thanks dude!
You double thumb it; I just use hold onto my pointing finger with my thumb and "fu" finger, and strum like a maniac. I dig your style, you know this.

Is that bass custom? Sounds insane. I dig the wear on the body
Thanks dude, sure is! I'm pleasantly surprised with all the tones I've been able to get out of it.
Double thumb technique 👌 Evan s brewer inspiration ?
Yeah man! He really opened my eyes to stuff like that when I was just getting into slap 'n pop.
Fuckin sick man!
Thanks man!
6 string bass is an overkill, you need only 2 for old-school death metal 😁
Agreed, I couldn't afford more than one bass while in Japan though and still wanted to play Archspire ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thank you! I know you're trying to be insulting, but the fact that you can't tell how loud I actually am in this video is a huge compliment.
homie this is just you admitting you have shit headphones. it's super audible
@@radMisc yeah you're right i do have shit headphones as i just played this through my speakers and it sounds better. i was wrong.
@@rorke47 fair enough fair enough
