      i actually think charles potential would not be used to its fullest in polyphia since there's so many people filling the spotlight already. He either has to stay a bit back, which would not use all of this potential or go for lead bass, which would be fighting against scott and tim constantly

    • @18hot30
      @18hot30 Рік тому +5

      @@TheDiamondBladeHD there's ways to fill the soundscape, I mean look at John Myung , he plays over a keyboardist and guitarist that are almost always soloing, sure for dream theater he seems a perfect fit until you hear someone else better. It happens, though rarely, when Tool came out, their original bassist seemed to fit like a glove until Justin arrived and showed us what can be done and still stay true to the sound of Tool.
      With Charles' skills, how long do you think it would take him to improve upon the hybrid picking technique or even replicate it with thumb picking and pops, I mean not bashing Polyphia;s bass player, just saying until we hear a collab between them it would be hard to say. Don't forget Charles is a learned bassist, who has not just the chops but all sorts of education from people who were the best, some are now deceased, so I wouldn't say that Charles wouldn't fit in. No, he wouldn;t fit in playing like he does in this video because he's covering the tune but have we heard him try to play just the bass parts? Nope. So you catch my drift>

    I enjoy watching Clay drum. His conservation of motion is fascinating. To get the same sound out of my drum set I have to do larger motions. It could be that way cause I'm a skinny armed weakling. But he is so concise with his hits. I wish that I could have gotten to that quality, but even after 20 years of practice, I will never be more than amateur, and a middling amateur at that.

    There will be those who disagree... but having played a stringed instrument now and again - a fretless bass takes much more effort than playing the same licks on a normal guitar. Reason of course is the neck length and thickness. All imo of course.

    Imo this track doesn't need a bassist also playing the leading line when you have both guitars. The original bass line works really well to accent the low end, complementing the guitars. But Charles made this independently of the other voicings so it's cool to hear how it all sounds together anyway.
