What are some bands/songs that use TONS of bass? Also, what are the best headphones for bass?

 

Skull Crushers And does anybody know if those headphones are any good.

Cannibal Corpse. If you ignore the rest of the stuff, then there's quite a lot of heavy bass in it. ;)

 

Just bass though? I find Stoner Metal uses a lot of bass, good bass at that.

chili peppers always good, bud from sublime also has amazing bass licks, and a good punk band with bass i'd check out is Rancid... (listen to the bass solo on maxwell murder). Oh yeah another cool band with some good bass is Morphine. I also got some noise canceling headphones from sony that i really like for listening and playing bass too \'

RHCP, Primus, Who, Rush, Yes.

 

 

 

 

 

Just heard Goin' Down South by: North Mississippi Allstars

 

Some great bass in that song^

 

 

 

EDIT: About the song above: In the version I heard, it had some serious slap bass in it, but in the live versions that I've searched on youtube, the bass it toned down. :?

Because that's probably what the majority of users listen to. That or they are not sure whether the OP means bass as in the instrument, and bass the sound. I'm not too sure either. If it's bass the sound, then you should not be looking at rock, go for techno and hip-hop. And D&B, which I think you should ask Abelmisi about since I don't really know much about it.

 

 

 

Also, one review claims that the bass is lacking where most bass guitars would play, the 50 mHz - 200Mhz region.

There's no such thing as regret. A regret means you are unhappy with the person you are now,

and if you're unhappy with the person you are, you change yourself. That

regret will no longer be a regret, because it will help to form the new,

better you. So really, a regret isn't a regret.

It's experience.

I was more after bass the sound, not the instrument.

Boris begs to differ with you on every level.

 

 

 

Some of the most powerful drone bass/metal bass in the business, more powerful than most electronic stuff I've heard.

 

Oh yeah, on that note, also check out Sunn O))).

Cool.

Yeah, Sunn's stuff is really feedback-y and there's a nice lotta VROOOOOOOOOM going on in the bass.

 

 

 

I want their new LP but Southern Lord is charging $17, $40 (!!) shipping on it. [bleep].

 

 

 

They're a bit overrated though and as a result some of their work is really [bleep]. But their collabs and splits are in a league of their own; Sunn really shine when they team up with another band.

If you are looking for some serious bass lines, try D'n'B (Drum and Bass), or other varients of electronic music.

 

 

 

Drum and Bass is a mostly underground genre, it's music is characterized by having low basslines, and fast tempo beats. D'n'B can be divided to two sub categories, underground and mainstream. Underground is the one with the skull trashing beats and the dark feel, and mainstream is characterized with lighter patterns and heavy use of vocals.

 

 

 

Do yourself a favor and listen to the following songs on http://www.dizzler.com (online music streamers no download required) and not youtube, the bass quality is deafening on yt.

 

 

 

A good place to start looking for songs is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%27n%27b , you can read about all the D'n'b subgenres and listen to samples.

 

 

 

The most well known D'n'b band is probably Pendulum, here are a few of their songs with nice bass:

 

 

 

Pendulum - Slam

 

Pendulum - Toxic Shock

 

 

 

If you are looking for the real bass orgy, try these:

 

 

 

Black Sun Empire - Breach

 

Pendulum - Another Planet

 

 

 

Oh, and get a nice set of headphones, stock earbuds won't do justice. ;)

 

 

 

I recommend PMing LP about which headphones are good, he knows a lot about them and could give you good advice.

You know BSE, I would've expected more and better suggestions of you instead of Pendulum... Eg; Audio, Evol intent, Noisia, The Qemists, SPOR, Survival, Technical itch, Vicious circle.

 

If you want some very nice Bass you should search for some Hiphop songs to.

Pendulum is good for starters, I didn't want to throw him in deep water. :P

 

 

 

Not D'n'b but insanely heavy bass: Benny Benassi - Satisfaction

I'll suggest listening the heck out of all their songs then, that's what I'm working on at the moment. :)

 

 

 

Ladies and Gentlemen

 

we understand that you

 

have come tonight

 

to bare witness to the sound

 

of drum... and... bass

 

 

 

We regret to announce that this is not the case

 

as instead, we come tonight to bring you,

 

the solid recreation of the end of the World

 

Ladies and Gentlemen prepare to Hold Your Colour!

 

 

 

[PAUSE]

 

Okay, f*** it, I lied

When I read the word "Bass", I automatically think of hardcore. Not the metal hardcore, but the electronic hardcore, it's not really well-known outside The Netherlands, but I'll give some exapmles:

 

 

 

The Stunned Guys - Raise Cain (Into The Psychodrome)

 

Angerfist - Raise your fist

 

Project Omega - Prednison Attack

 

Animum debes mutare, non caelum.
