i really like what paul did with the first riff, instead of following the riff note for note he gives it more room to breath giving it a cool dynamic. Then later in the song he goes in full on giving it more power. Nothing crazy or new its just something I like.
oh man, I always loved it when that last chorus hit. Couldn't tell why until I heard the bass stem. This arrangement decision is definitely part of why the song works so well. Paul ruled.
See alot of you saying this was bad, but im going to defend the band. They recorded this album to no click, and all of them together in one room doing live takes. So what that means is that the whole band played the song as many times necessary together to get a good/close to perfect track. Most people these days dont even play bass on their albums, they track bass from a robot/computer.
0seconds he was really good, listen to bitchslap and confessions. The reason the timing is off is because back in the day they didn’t use a click track.
It works perfect in the final mix. Some instruments aren't meant to stand out by themselves, they are meant to do their place in the mix. Sorry you're too stupid to understand that.
