Anthrax - “Fight ‘Em ‘Til You Can’t” (Bass Cover)

Frank Bello is a relentless bass player. I remember watching him playing back in 92 and thinking to myself “how does he do that? So much power and energy!”. I never stopped listening to Anthrax. I love the Bush era, but really appreciated the great comeback they made on “Worship Music”. To me they never went away, but this album meant serious business! It’s raw, vicious, and Frank pummels the bass as if his life depended on it. A very solid player, great influence for me.
Tuning: EbAbDbGb
Bass: Fender Jazz Bass (late 70s) with EMG pickups and electronics.

Thank you 👊🏻

Frank Bello is super underrated 🖤❤️🤘

[@kellogc]

Solid bassist as can be 👊🏻

[@kd0duj]

Frankie Bello is a fucking solid and a badass bassist

[@MrSatyre1]

I'd like to see a mashup of Kello and Davie504 playing the same song together, but with Davie504 playing his parts like jazz, and Kello doing his best speed metal. All. At. The. Same. Time.

[@kellogc]

I think that’d actually sound pretty cool! 👊🏻

[@piotrkondziolka2137]

I think that Davie is now kinda burn out, he is just posting "funny" shorts since he made 10M subs. Kinda sad because he was the first one who had brought my attention to bass

[@zaxZk]

Davie is a clown 🤡

I couldn't agree more about Bello. My all-time favorite by him is Intro To Reality/Belly Of The Beast.

Steve Harris was the 1st bassist I properly 'heard' in music and it changed how I listened to songs. Cliff pricked up my ears on my 1st listen to Metallica. I realised what got my attention after hearing Frank Bello and rating him as one of my fave bassists; it's the warm organic sound of strumming over picking. I admire many pick bassists, but these 3 are the cornerstone of my listening journey :)

[@kellogc]

Very good selection of great bass players 👊🏻

Hey Kello! How about making a video on how you mix the bass to the original track and get this marvelous sound?

[@kellogc]

I could do that. But there really isn’t much to it I think (plus is not that fun). The isolated bass should give an idea on how the bass sounds to then fit within the song 👊🏻

Super nice playing as always. What is your use of the "tremolo" picking ? (when you go up and down with one finger)

[@uPick-iLick]

Your right hand is the only thing I can focus on, I love your play style! What is that little kick you do with your finger? I love it

[@kellogc]

Thank you. I flick the string on the way up with my nail from time to time 👊🏻

[@uPick-iLick]

@@kellogc it's fascinating to watch! I do a few subtle quirks when I play guitar and mandolin, but I'm willing to bet they're nowhere near as captivating to watch!
Thank you for the great covers, I've learned a lot through watching you play!

You've been avoiding covering the classic synth basslines of Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up. Please add this to your list. Curious to see how you'll faithfully reproduce the tone and fx.

[@kellogc]

I’ll have to take a look. I don’t think I’ve paid attention to those details. Or are you trolling me? 🙃

[@JayJayPee123]

@@kellogc A little of both, but seriously give it a listen and focus on the synth bass. You've nailed every other tone. Wondering how close you could get it.
