There are some amazing bass players in the overall Metal genre but I find myself really digging Alex Webster who is the bassist for Cannibal Corpse. I’ll admit I’m not a huge fan of the lyrics but Alex is phenomenal.
When I watch this video of him playing I almost want to just give up and throw my bass in the trash, LOL (j/k).
3-finger Galloping (wtf?)
64th notes
Left-hand speed and pinpoint accuracy
If you get a chance, watch some of his interviews. He’s the nicest guy.
Thanks for the tip. I assume you dig Robert Trujillo and Frank Bello? Two more serious thrash to P-funk stuff for Robert who are all fingers.
I will check his interview out.
Yes! Love them both. Metallica and Anthrax are great. Cliff Burton was my very first inspiration to play the bass. Trujillo is awesome also. Sometimes I feel bad for Trujillo because he’s always being compared to Burton. Trujillo is just awesome in his own right.
Eugene Kostyuk is pretty cool too 
I’m not deep in to death metal but I am way in to post-metal/post-hardcore and recently (thanks to @terb) blackgaze, most recently Oathbreaker and Deafheaven with a side of Cult of Luna.
It’s funny because when I think Trujillo I think Suicidal Tendencies, not Metallica 
Jinjer are an awesome band and Eugene surely offers some nice playthrough videos. But it might be too early to try those for me 
I’m not so much into death metal, I’m more into the doom/sludge/stoner side of rock/metal which is some kind of the opposite. but I listen to some death metal occasionnaly
the ultimate reference is Entombed in my opinion, but I like very much some more modern death bands like :
Vitriol (with black metal accents)
Cattle Decapitation (with a touch of deathcore)
Bring Me The Horizon (pretty much a definition of deathcore ; only the early songs are interesting in my opinion ; this song is funny because it is very “core” and it goes to the crabcore and even the djent territory)
Jinjer (deathcore ; this song is an absolute masterpiece)
I’ve been listening to 70s metal for like forever, but I discovered most of the doom/sludge/stoner side only recently. My first big revelation was Desertfest Antwerpen two years ago 
Been trying to get more into the genre since then , but it’s hard to keep track of every genre I like 
True, that’s the impression I got from browsing through the forum 
@terb definitely can help about the doom/sludge/stoner things, and I can too!
Ha.
My heavy rotation right now:
Elder (x5)
Hyborean
Cult of Luna
Pallbearer
How do you find your music, @Krescht? I usually do Spotify, but if YouTube links would be preferred, I can fish those up.
Well, I have some friends that are into different music genres that can help me out. Otherwise, it’s a music streaming app or through the yearly festival that got me hooked 
Unfortunately, it’s been cancelled this year…
Right now, I really enjoy Monkey3 who I have on heavy rotation
Wow, that was intense! Love it!!
Thanks for sharing!!!
Just phenomenal. And now I will have them in heavy rotation! Heading to Apple Music right now…
Loving me some Hyborian also!!
Yes, RObert Trujillo to me is Suicidal, but more so Infectious Grooves because he really is the heart of that band, being a funky punk band
Although I love Cliff Burton, I am NOT a Metallica fan at all. Sure, early Metallica was good, cuz of Cliff, but they are a stadium Rock band who sold their Garage Days soul. I could go on and on about my dislike for Metallica, but I will end it with this. I dislike Metallica so much, I didn’t even know Robert Trujillo was in the band until recently when I was looking up something on his wiki.
And I was looking up to see what ST Albums he first appeared on. So, in all actuality, Metallica licked out to get such a talent who may be the closes match out in that genre to step in and continue where Cliff left off, not just a replacement, but bring his game to the table.
Funny, Les Claypool once tried out for Metallica right after Cliff died, before Primus got big. He said he walked in, cracked a bunch of 1 liners that went right over their heads, played a bit, and left, never heard back.
I watched a YT clip of a big fest they played, they came out for an encore and he slapped the opening of “Master Of Puppets” then the went back off stage. Man he ripped it,
Bro! That’s some righteous dislike! Haha!! I most definitely like their early stuff way better than the new.
Webster is an animal! My favorite metal, (and one of my favorite overall) bassist is Ryan Martinie of Mudvayne and Soften the Glare.
Jinjer is amazing! Would love to see a Spiritbox/Jinjer tour as soon as possible.
