Josh obviously isn't shrouded in anonymity, but he is absolutely our Stig. Lets his craft do all the talking; doesn't need to be a talking head, cracking jokes or reviewing gear. He is the distilled essence of metal bass mastery. The Beast. Thunderfingers. I am proud to call this man my friend and colleague.
@@michael1783 30 minutes per day is a good amount of practice time, 2 hours is pushing it as I don't believe in practicing to the point of pain. A short session each day is more than sufficient to keep my playing sharp especially as I've got bass tracking with my band coming up and I need to keep the songs fresh in my mind
I am never not impressed by this fuckin Specimen of a human! Josh is the fuckin Metal Spirit of The Bass Channel! A Metal Metronome! Let the fuckin bass, tone and fingers do the TALKING! 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
pick or not this song is HARD to play, what an absolute UNIT to make this song look so easy, i mean we all know josh is insane, but MAN this was just so much fun to watch!
The fact he can play that fast with fingers, and not clack every note is mind boggling to me, I learn every song both ways and know my fingers would not have sounded 1/2 this clean...master craft dude 🤙🤙
this song was not made for finger picking is the story I used to tell myself.....limitations are only in our minds. Thanks for proving that again Josh.... Keep rocking
Honestly this song is easier with a pick, just shows how masterful THIS GUY playing really is. Ellefson wouldn't be able to play like this with fingers.
woah i didnt expect this tornado of souls next! id love to see what kind of black magic josh pulls off on that song also a p bass with EMGs is something i didnt expect to see
While you always perform these basslines flawlessly,I must say this one impressed me most of all. This bassline has a bit of everything and its no easy task.
The bass channel should make a spotify playlist comprising every metal classics covered by josh . This guy not only enhances the character or the song also his bass playing is complete musical orgasm for the ears . You are gifted Josh .
Playing Lucretia and take no prisoners with fingers is absolutely mental lol. I’ve even trying to learn both for months and I can barely stumble through them
Josh, you didnt need to go that hard, playing this song with your fingers, really amazing! and if you can, anybody can do it, its just practice and practice and practice! Congrats from Portugal!!!
Insane!! The thing is he knows he's good,( top 5% of metal bassist ) but he doesn't brag about with words. His talent speaks for itself. The way it should be!!!
It just sound sick with fingers, so interesting how some sounds go better one way or another (fingers vs pick). I am a novice on bass world, it is such an interesting instrument (and I've been playing guitar for years....).
Impressive ! Bass line of one of my all time fave songs by one of my absolute all time fave album in Metal, played so damn well ! And with fingers !! U r blessed dude, and skilled af. Bravo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Thanks man!!! Me too!!🥲🥲
Well said.
@@joshbeast8599 this is amazing... What a talent
Thunder fingers rocks!!!!!
@@joshbeast8599 Bro!!!! Do you have anymore content on another youtube channel or a band or something I can go follow?
See this, guys? This is what practicing leads to. No secret bass hacks. No arrogance. Just solid playing ability.
Damn right, things like this are the reason I practice for 20-30 minutes every day to improve my technique and be a really strong bassist
@spectacularspectacular1856 No, it is not a joke
@@chrishampton1981 you should definitely practice for more than 30 minutes, 2 hours each day should be close to a minimum

His playing would be an acceptable reason for a little arrogance.
I'm convinced Josh was created in a lab to have the fastest fingers in human history.
You obviously don’t listen music much.
Have you ever listen to Steve DiGiorgio or Steve Harris?
@@8Junio76 he is just praising Josh's talent....calm down bro
@@8Junio76 shut up nerd he’s appreciating a good bassist
@@8Junio76 Harris does basic galloping and DiGiorgio is extremely creative, but sloppy live
@@8Junio76 steve harris lolllllllll billy sheehan eat harris for appetizer....and this guy here is better than harris by a lot
Any bassists who play metal finger style instantly get my respect
And the lower the tuning the tougher it gets. Least for me anyways
Even if they're not very good..?🥺
The speed, the strength, the endurance, the precision... what a fk chad
I can't believe this man performed a bassline so complex and fast with fingers. Well done man! 🤘🏼
Only way to do it... picks are for losers. :p
so complex ? 😂 ever heard of Geddy Lee ?
@@AhmadYahyaIraqiBassPlayer oh yeah 😂
@@soundwisestudios5340 have you picked up a bass in your life?
@@infernalsquid It was a joke... the fuck wrong with you? And yes, I have been playing bass for almost 40 years.

🤘🏼😁🤘🏼

I have the same speed as Josh. Once. In clicking the PLAY button once a new video of him turns up on my feed….
The man’s a living plucking legend!
The fact he can play that fast with fingers, and not clack every note is mind boggling to me, I learn every song both ways and know my fingers would not have sounded 1/2 this clean...master craft dude 🤙🤙
love how josh is listed on the signal chain, he really is part of his bass
this song was not made for finger picking is the story I used to tell myself.....limitations are only in our minds. Thanks for proving that again Josh.... Keep rocking
Josh DuBois, the Bass BEAST.
The fact he's doing this with fingers where Dave Elleffson does it with a pick is impressive
Proof of how masterful Dave Ellefson's PICK technique is.
I’m impressed with his finger playing, but would rather have seen him play it with a pick.
Honestly this song is easier with a pick, just shows how masterful THIS GUY playing really is. Ellefson wouldn't be able to play like this with fingers.
@@ascendancy4900 Ellefson has been using mainly pick for about 40 years now so I'm not sure if he can play fingerstyle that well.
@@ascendancy4900 definitely harder with a pick due to the constant switching from palm muting
Thats the dumbest thing I've ever heard
WOW!!! You can play Holy Wars with your fingers! Very impressive!!!! 👍 And you played it very well! Excellent work! 👏
woah
i didnt expect this
tornado of souls next!
id love to see what kind of black magic josh pulls off on that song
also a p bass with EMGs is something i didnt expect to see
This guy makes it seem so easy
Holy thunder! those right hand fingers are pure light speed
I thought I saw sparks from your fingertips ... nice style
I'd love to hear the isolated bass here. This guy is fkn fantastic!
I say it over and over but Josh is the fucking man… absolutely crushing!
DID 👏 NOT 👏 DISAPPOINT👏 .
So sick dude! Gonna have to immediately watch that again
While you always perform these basslines flawlessly,I must say this one impressed me most of all. This bassline has a bit of everything and its no easy task.
This bassline is actually on a lot of lists as beginner bass lines...just saying
@@aarondavis4341 wtf r u talking about, holy wars on bass is hard af when played properly
@@Beanpolr im sure u have not played it xd
@@aarondavis4341 Which lists? not saying its not easy, I just have never sewen that said befoere haha
The bass channel should make a spotify playlist comprising every metal classics covered by josh . This guy not only enhances the character or the song also his bass playing is complete musical orgasm for the ears . You are gifted Josh .
Once again, Josh proves that he's on another level. Well done, Sir! To the camera operators, audio mixers and video editors, you all shined as well!🤘🏻
that tone and precision is top tier
You absolutely crushed this! Fucking respect 🫡
Right on!
Great job, man. Ellefson is very proud
This dude may have a future in music.
so dope
I'd love an album cover of rust in peace. Five Magics would be super awesome.
Doing rust in peace in full is gonna be really hard
@@susragejr477 for sure. But this guy is an absolute beast. No doubt he can pull it off if he puts his mind on it.
Playing Lucretia and take no prisoners with fingers is absolutely mental lol. I’ve even trying to learn both for months and I can barely stumble through them
yesssir
that was frikin awesome! loved it!
Man I love the tone of this. Such an accurate play of the song
2:23 i've felt that too everytime i play this damn song with a pick!! Yet this guy does it with his fingers....!!!
Josh, you didnt need to go that hard, playing this song with your fingers, really amazing! and if you can, anybody can do it, its just practice and practice and practice!
Congrats from Portugal!!!
Again, I wish I had a quarter of the ability Josh does. So great.
Also, this is the exact sound I wish I could have on my basses.
The right hand on Josh is a thing of beauty.
Thank you, MAN!
Insane!! The thing is he knows he's good,( top 5% of metal bassist ) but he doesn't brag about with words. His talent speaks for itself. The way it should be!!!
that is so cool ! insane playing ! incredible right hand, freaking great song, thank you !
No pick for this song ! it's crazy. David would be proud :D :D
Josh and Felipe Andreoli, that´s all we need.
it's really nice to see some megadeth
That’s what you call a combination of very hard work and God given talent.
Playing this song in bass is way more difficult, and you EXCELLED. holy fuck (no pun intended)
Yes! This is fantastic! Hope you guys are covering the whole album.
Damn my fingers hurt just from watching. Now i have to learn this on bass too 😂🤘
Me too... But im gonna use pick for my own good
OMG I was sweatin' there right along with you bro! What a FANTASTIC cover of a bad-ass classic Megadeth track from the days of old.
Holy shit, bro... That was perfect. Bravo!
Thank you so much for this take.
It was just awesome.
Every day, Josh proves that bass should be amplified as much as lead guitars. Thanks for the sonic beauty!
fingerstyle holly wars, you are insane, and i love it 🤯 ❤️
I have the same pickups in my Spector Euro 5 and I love them.
Its like everytime i see a josh video i forget how amazing he is, and am surprised all over again.
Josh is fantastic
Its incredible....simply....incredible...exelent...exelent...no comparision...congratulations friend.. friendo...
Holy fk! You're incredible! Got goose bumps from how you're able to nail this with ease! I'm amazed, you're an amazing talent my friend!! 🤘🏻
the bass tone is amazing...and the guys playing speaks for itself.
Hands down - this guy’s playing is on Cliff’s level
Heck yeah! 🤘
Cliff Burton was never this clean.
@@singleproppilot or clean at all
@@singleproppilotto be fair, cliff's fame came from his incredible music writing ability, his technical skill just came along with that
It just sound sick with fingers, so interesting how some sounds go better one way or another (fingers vs pick).
I am a novice on bass world, it is such an interesting instrument (and I've been playing guitar for years....).
holy shit the playing is utterly masterful
Awesome sound, awesome timing, awesome everything!
This songs hard enough with a pick
Dude, you're a beast. Playing a song normally played with a pick with your fingers? What a performance, what a tone. Superb.
Flawless playing and the tone is just P-E-R-F-E-C-T !
In his hands, a bass is a lethal weapon, because he slays it every single time!
🤘🤘🤘 good Metal vibes, from Cuiabá-MT, Brazil. Great job👏👏
Play the whole album!
😏
Where are the nay sayers that said this album was impossible to play without a pick? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
BRO IS A BEAST
Holy crap!! I wanna play like that!! Totally awesome fingerstyle!!
That's really damn good.
doing fingerstyle is craazzyyyyy
And here I thought I had learned this by ear at about 95% correct...back to the lab with me...amazing tone and skill sir SALUTE. 🫡
Dude, you're a beast!
monstrous tone dude
Wow, two Fingers?? This Is a pure example of Speed, technique and stamina!! Awesome playing!! Should try It too!! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Absolutely nutsssss
Would Josh consider covering Coroner?
They have a killer discography with a phenomenal bass player
Precise, clean and very fast. Really good! Preciso, pulito e velocissimo. Veramente bravo
As well as the awesome playing, do I detect from the face that you are completely grooving? thank you Sir for getting me grooving too! 🎸🇬🇧🇺🇸👍
What a nice job my friend Josh you are very pretty good and cool
The mad lad finally did it!! 🫡🥶🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love everything..the mix, the bass tone and most of all, your fingers
Holy finger style dude...fantastic!
Oh, dude. The master finger… awesome.

That's really impressive,the finger dexterity is insane
Brother, your talent and sound are INSANE!!!!
Ok this is actually crazy. HOW are you going so fast?! I gotta catch up!!!
It's incredible how this man plays this song with his fingers and that David Ellefson touched him with the Spike
Just Josh doing Josh things. No biggie. :D
Amazing! Sounds so good. I wish I could get all my favorite metal albums in versions with bass this loud!❤
hell yeah brother! Always enjoy your covers. Playing is as awesome as usual. take care.
