Been zipping through 2019 releases and came upon the meloblack band Malist who released their debut today. Definitely one of the better albums I've jammed in the last couple weeks.

Speaking of good bass, I just love when the bass is given proper attention, especially if it's a fretless. This (starting at 2:12 and really hitting its stride at 3:25) is probably some of my favorite bass playing in a metal song, so sci-fi and wonderfully spacey. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIMEpj5SDcA Such a shame that they sort of just faded out a couple of years ago.

Been waiting for 20 years for a Claypool and Grohl to form a supergroup under the condition that neither of them ever put a microphone near their mouth. Never could decide who should do vocals though.

If Les Claypool spent those 20 years killing commies instead of playing with jam bands, he'd be more like the bassist from Brocas Helm. Gonna be honest, I read about the movie but I still have no idea WTF is going on in this music video. Also, it's NSFW. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfT4Lflzmkg

Herb Alexander is one of the best rock drummers of all time and Larry Lalonde’s guitar playing perfectly complements the bass playing. He can shred when he wants to. There’s not liking a band and there’s being wrong about them and this is the latter.

Like just toss them in right now and that they'll have three bassists and Dave Grohl is second banana to Buzzo. I have faith that Dale will be able to keep them in line.

The hype for Windhand absolutely baffles me. One of the dullest and most predictable bands in a subgenre known for predictability.
