First 50 Metal Songs You Should Play on Bass

Thanks for your support everybody! As you might guess, this vid garnered a lot of gatekeeper “this isn’t metal you poser” comments on Youtube, so nice to read your non-troll experiences of the vid. :angel:

It’s usually me, and here it is, thanks for asking!

I think only in the “don’t play a 5 string” video. :stuck_out_tongue: Oh, and there’s a doom metal version of My Girl hiding somewhere in a video somewhere, can’t remember which one.

Well, I can already play “The Hand that Feeds”, so it’s a start… However, this isn’t metal you poser :crazy_face:

If anyone wants to get started on a Rammstein song, I can recommend “Deutschland”! Very simple, and very satisfying :metal:t2:

I don’t. I can’t play it once right… because I tend to fall asleep sooner or later :sweat_smile:

And it’s not metal btw :rofl: :roll_eyes: :crazy_face:

I feel validated in my struggle with “Ace of Spades” being so high on the list at #45 :grimacing:

Although it’s just rock ‘n’ roll, Lemmy said so.

(hope my sarcasm is clear: I find the gatekeepers/trolls that pop up in every metal-related discussion pretty ridiculous… )

Well, it’s German, so I guess it could be Metall :rofl: But seriously, I like it. It’s the metal version of With or Without You… Or the Neue Deutsche Härte version if you like :wink:

@JoshFossgreen - This is my first time being around for the launch of one of these videos. The pdf seems to only have links to tabs of the first three songs (unless I’m just dumb). Are the others coming, or are they a “hunt them down yourself” kind of thing?

Most of theirs are actually pretty simple. It’s the lyrics and giant flaming wings that add complexity to their music lol

How much Red Bull does it take for the wings to catch fire?

Yeah, it was a joke, the NDH is clearly Metal/Metal-adjacent…
but IMHO the Rammstein esthetics is generally, I don’t know… off-putting?
Or perhaps it is just Herr Lindemann’s ego (and controversies)

I dated a girl from Berlin in college and I mentioned Rammstein once and it was the only time she laughed and walked out of the room. :rofl:

I always thought “Home” by Phillip Phillips would make an amazing metal cover.

“Know your not alone! I’m gonna make this place your HHHHOOOOOOMMMMMEEEEE!”

I mean what else can you do with soft Pop?

And wow that song is 12 years old…

Roll with it. A lot of elitists in metal as we call them. Been the way decades. They still don’t accept nu-metal as metal, I’ve even had people tell me Slipknot isn’t metal.

Though some weren’t strictly metal who cares ?
