Evolution of Punk Bass | 1913 - 2023 

garage revival, post hardcore, post punk revival, not to mention that pop punk also has a pretty interesting evolution as a subgenre

ska punk was a pretty prominent exclusion even if you dont like it it was big

@@heather2503 it was absolutely massive and definitely had some notable basslines

@@seralouise. also fugazi is post hardcore he just mislabeled it

@@heather2503 mm true true. it also has its own little evolution

I'll in the Head, an icon bassline of punk

@@dmacowski yes

Klaus Flouride appreciation thread

No shit. Also Minutemen, Descendents, RKL, Operation Ivy, Lagwagon, Less Than Jake. It's like this list was made by Rolling Stone.

Klaus is a beast, that riff on MTV Get Off the Air is one of the best

Behsed

Hit me

Do it. Playing bass is a whole new challenge, but it’s fun bc you’ll be able to play simple stuff right away.

he probably meant post hardcore

Yeah, not to nitpick or nothing but for accuracy's sake, I think fugazi is more hardcore/post hardcore and PIL is more post punk than new wave. New wave is more like blondie and post punk is more joy division and gang of four

Post Hardcore

Also not to nitpick, but I think that Fugazi record came out in '88.

Aaaaaahahaha! John B. Sparks lived in the attached identical duplex next door.

When a conversation about influences comes up, I usually say, Geddy Lee, Cliff Burton, and Duff McKagan. A lot of people think I'm joking about Duff, like he isn't a good bass player, I guess. But, when I first started playing bass Appetite For Destruction was really big and I learned every song from it. As a new bass player, I really like the way he would throw in those little fills between key changes. They were cool, but not blazing fast so that I couldn't play it and get discouraged and just give up. That was a long time ago, but. You can definitely hear his influence in my playing. It's pretty obvious, so I'm not gonna lie about it.

We need it his chorus tone is amazing!

Duff is amazing on the low end his bass fills are definitely my favourite bass fills out of any bassist he's not bad at singing either saw him in Glasgow with GnR this year

@@scottbubb2946 He's not super complicated, or an insane player by any means, but his sound is really unique!

He was actually in a punk band before GNR called The Fartz... no joke!

I was thinking the same thing, i would even throw out some alkaline trio for some bahs

A lot also happened between 1982 & 89 - 7 years totally ignored in the video. Along with several of the great punk bass players not mentioned at all. Klaus Flouride & Phil Bryant to name two.

One of my favourite bands

Saw them open for creeper, they were genuinely better than them live, such a good band
