    Black metal without bass is like food without salt. Tasteless ! Excellent selection of songs and bands, that Marduk riff has haunted my childhood, and i am pretty sure B-War is using the legendary BOSS MT-2 metal zone to achieve this tone. Midnattskogens sorte kjerne by Dodheimsgard is a song i would really like to be featured on part 2. Or Pretender to the throne by Necromantia. Ευχαριστουμε Σταθη, δωσε πονο, Γουσταρουμε.

      Thanks Timothy! There will sure be a part 2, I'm already working on it when I find the time. I haven't added Ulver in my list to be honest because although I checked their tabs for bass solos etc, I'm not familiar at all with their music. I could learn a solo by ear but I don't know which songs of theirs have one. In the future though I'd like to fully cover some of their songs, they have an amazing atmosphere.

Try setting easy, small goals to slowly achieve so you both have something to motivate you to pick up the instrument but won't be difficult enough to unmotivate you! It can be anything, a scale, a song, or just a riff/part of a song, it all counts!

      @@hephaestusofficial I've listened to all their albums and even splits, so if you haven't listened to them a ton and want any recommendation I myself would say 'Microcosmos' (there's a reason I mentioned 'Distant Cries of Cranes', about 6:05 into the track) and 'Blood In Our Wells' are my personal favorites. From 'Blood In Our Wells', 'Furrows of Gods' tends to be pretty highly regarded, and I'd agree with that sentiment. That said, I'll always recommend listening to the full albums.
      'Eastern Frontier' is also pretty good good, but it's mostly a cover album. 'Autumn Aurora' was how I initially got into the band, though while it's very thematic and a pleasant listen, I don't know that I'd call it their best by any means. Bird noises are as much a component of that album as any actual instrument. That all said, I'm not sure I'd call any of their albums "bad", I just like some better than others.
      Don't know if that will help in any capacity, but hey! If I can help someone get into a band I love, then rad. Otherwise, it's no big deal; not everyone loves everything, ya' know? I mean, we're in a pretty niche genre as-is.

      Absolutely! In fact I've also avoided De Mysteriis for many years just cause of the elitism surrounding it. "If they don't like it, it must not be good" and due to that I only listened to the Freezing Moon.
      Now that I got over myself and actually gave the album a proper listen, this song and De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas are my absolute highlights of the album!
      Also people who complain about the later albums "not being black metal enough", all I can say is that the musicianship of the band is far ahead for them to get it. Not saying that everything is 10/10 but many songs are absolutely great and Attila's vocals are phenomenal.

      agreed on atilla's vocals. without intent to disrupt this online etiquette, to put it simply, the new albums make my balls feel funny, so i can't listen to them. that being said, i like atilla because he's very angular, relaxed, and has nuance, which are all traits that are exceptionally rare for bm vocalists.

      I think but I may be wrong, that it's ours, the bass player's fault most likely. Many of us don't take the time to change things up a little either due to lack of knowledge or ideas. Bass is also far easier to start learning than guitar so many people just stick to the basics. That's not wrong by any means, play what you like! But in those rare instances that a unique bass line will find it's way into a song, it'll really elevate it!

      Before doing this video, I didn't even know Gorgoroth had such basslines!

    I would not consider this as bass solos but melodic basslines.

    Nice tone, however the base lines are pretty basic to be

      Thank you! They are, but that's part of the appeal I believe. They don't have to be overly complicated in general and I personally prefer the simpler bass lines.

    Why black sounds like shit? Good ideas are lost in bad sound.

    • @hephaestusofficial

      I think it's more, or at least was, more of an ideological thing. 2nd wave of Black Metal bands thought that metal was becoming to mainstream, sterile and clean, so they pretty much went the exact opposite way. The channel Punk Rock MBA actually has a great video on this topic. I kinda agree that good ideas tend to get lost in the noise in black metal but on the other hand I think that often that noise is what gives black metal it's atmosphere.

      @@hephaestusofficial I prefer clean sound (being a drummer and bassist). I am absolutely shure that this is the ONLY way to grab the innocent souls of listeners 😄

      @@ЛеонидХапаев true! I remember 10 years ago, I couldn't stand black metal. First song I've ever listened to was Beherit - Suck My Blood and after a few seconds I had to turn it off. Cleaner sound is definetely easier to the ear and for longer listening!

      Yeah, that's true. Oh how do I long for the day that I'll be worshiping the correct deity again. It's the masons that use them to rid the world of christianity, because it's such an important religion and stuff. And don't get me started on all the fake allegations of children abuse and coverups within the church. God is really everywhere. AMEM BORTHER HOSS.
