Richard Jones Drums keep tempo and time, while bass gives the “reverb”/thickness of the guitars... Both are quite under appreciated

Spot oM man

I miss when slipknot put more of an emphasis on drums and bass 😭

Damn right, get sa great rhythm section and you can do anything.

the back seat to every song* but heck no, drums in metal are up there with the guitars, and poor bass has no place.

+Tony Serven If i only do one thing with my life, its to get his tone

Add some overdrive pedal dude.

Especially the higher notes

Yes. Me too.

+Michaels Covers honestly just get some fresh strings and use a sansamp bass driver on the svt preset with the gain pushed a little more, most of this tone simply comes from how low he tunes and the fret buzz

and a good drummer

Amazing drummer, for sure. But Grey was not a great bass player. He got the job done. But come on guys, I could teach a non player how to play that in 20 minutes..just as long as they could remember where to put their fingers a few things. I did see him use an up stroke in this song, however. I'm sorry, but I am not going to pretend that he was this great player ,just because the dude died. He got the job done. But he was far from being a good player.

Well Gray was technical not such a good bass player but he wrote many parts for bass and guitar. In my opinion he was a great songwriter.

DatTuna agree with you, I think creativity and skill is something different

I think I remember Paul say that he didn't know how to play bass

Was

Yeah. I love it. And the groove is just there..

He had a family and he choose drugs.....thats nobody to celebrate......

Captain Bodyshot lol

knotstone

Called in the zone JAMMING

What about Fieldy from Korn or Ryan from Mudvayne.

+shallowcoder1 fieldy is really easy to play. it literally is just really good basses that he uses

Easy, sure, but innovative. Before Fieldy, no one played like Fieldy.

He said one of few bassist! He didn't one of of the great bassist idiots

La Fonda SAME

There is band called Disciplin a kitchme,try to listen them

As a bass player myself, my ears always isolate the bassline. Did ever since I was a kid, that's why I chose bass over guitar.

Juanito El Oso Bass players unite

@@JuanCruz-un9jy same here. I literally tune everything out except bass and have trained my ears to pick up baselines easier than anything else even do the same with double bass drums too

Bored TV you know Disciplina kičme! Nice

he was unique in his playing

Tigga Da Wigga It shows how good his musicianship is

He still improvised a bit in this vid with a couple licks

Gray*

you're

Bro 🤣 the only two comments are corrections

What do you mean? Could you please elaborate what your saying im interested

@@colorblindartist2882 he plays in front of the beat

Oh ok i see what your saying. Yeah paul was a boss. Wish i had a band to be in just like slipknot

@@1alexanderkup1 getting closer everyday actually!

Paul was actually the most creative and devoted Slipknot member, he loved to play and he wrote the majority of the songs, he was an inspiration to everyone around him, not just to be a good musician, but just to be a good person in general, Paul was an incredible person and I personally look up to him.

Well, he doesn't....

He probably did

Not anymore dude.

I'd wager money he did. He loved it

I'm sure he did.

On Iowa it was quite solid. Vol 3 had mixing issues.

X4AJ Rick fucked the production, I love the album but you can tell he wasn’t doing what the band wanted

I heard his bass no issues. And plus if you took the bass out of the songs it would sound like shit.

@@alexotey7035 that's true, it's just hard to pick it out when listening to the mix, unless it's a song like prosthetics, purity, iowa, or even the virus of life.

@@adelineinactivity Vol 3. had mixing fuck up XDD One of the worst sounds i have heard from such a big band... But those songs are amazing, but ruined by the mix :(((

Amen to that brother!!!!

RIP

Steven Olson can't believe it

😭😭

😭😭😭

Over 9 years ago now:(

I still shed a tear every time I hear him play 😥😥

@@sploofygaming5446 i really hope they do an song for his 10 years of passing...

Chill fanboy

Just got here.

@@PiscesSenpai SourKnot sounds the best imo

Yeah. I just wish I could find his signature bass. It's impossible to find.

@@Skyyuhhh there you go grammar police!

@@Skyyuhhh lol all good, I'm just in a pissy mood I apologize.

Roy plays everything likes it's nothing. Been a fan of his for 30 years. He used to play in a great punk band called Nausea. One of the nicest guys you could ever meet. He used to do sound for my old band when we played NYC. He just got off tour with Ministry and killed it. Just like he has with everyone he has ever played for. Highly underrated drummer that can play any style of music.

To be fair, Duality isn't really very hard to play on any instrument.

@@imcnblu your video on any instrument please

@@rogerstarz: It really isn't though. Also, that's not a valid argument.

Me too

mkt oh yeah if you listen to it it’s wayyyy different most of the time

Joe Mason well. If it was the truth , that could be epic

Corey: No eres negro, pero tocas bajo. Enfermate pero toca ese maldito bajo
