Title: Mark D's bass playing
Post by: Leroy on April 23, 2010, 06:54:05 PM
Just listen to songs like "Buck Owens" and "Bar X", as well as a lot of the stuff on Stag.  Man, he played a mean bass!

If melvins bass players were items of clothing, Mark would be a velvet tuxedo with a ruffled shirt.

Jared would be a tweed jacket with converse sneakers and a bowler's cap (gold pocket watch indeed!).













I'm drunk.

Mark was a guitar player primarily. I think that's why a lot of his basslines are so "busy"

The next time I see TD I am going to punch him square in the larynx.



Almost all the best bass lines apart from Trevor's were written by King B, whom the next time I see I am going to punch square in the larynx.
