Blood and Thunder (Mastodon) - Bass Cover (With Tabs) by Leo Düzey

[@RidvanDuzey]

Still their best album, songs like this and Leviathan are just too good!

[@ForgedInValhalla]

They dont have a song called Leviathan

[@RidvanDuzey]

@@ForgedInValhalla you’re right! I actually meant Seabeast 🤘🏻

[@lbhrn2007]

This song is always playing in Build-a-Bear whenever my daughter and I go.

[@jell-ohammer2476]

Man, such a fantastic album, stuff like Crack the Skye is great too, but Leviathan will always hold a special place in my heart. Great work and tone as always!

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Thanks Jell-o!

[@lukaweiss9147]

Duuuuuude amazing tone!

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Thanks man!

[@bendykirby4828]

Whales aren’t fish, Troy. I think the weird slide to the 4 at 1:45 is just a mistake in the recording. About the low C though: tuning down a whole step just to play one note is the ultimate Chad move.

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Probably is a mistake yeah. And agreed haha, what on earth made them decided to play just one note in a drop tuning..

[@gplog7197]

Yesss soo good

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Thanks!!

[@thegreatnorthernclasswar]

Had to learn this for a cover and tab I had seemed slightly wrong. It was but all good after watching this. Easy to follow video

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Glad I could help :)

[@VinceBzlcBass]

For me the best Mastodon's song ever... Perfect cover, thanks for it !!

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Thanks man!

[@Barrosloco]

Nice cover! Gonna practice the hell out of this song today hahaha! Thank you Leo!

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Have fun!

[@hermesbandofficial8551]

You should totally do hearts alive one day. It’s a challenge but it would pay off immensely. Great cover as always

[@misiolekar2448]

Instant like, great job, I really wanted to see someone cover this song with tabs!

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Thank you! I'm glad I did :)

[@Cheeseburgerman23]

tone is better than that isolated track my guy nice job

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Glad you think so man, thank you

[@Cheeseburgerman23]

@@LeoBassCovers2 I think Troy isn’t the best bassist out there but he does have singing duties so Ill give him a pass. we can see it from the sometimes weird note choice and sloppy playing on this song and others.

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Yeah.. I find that 4th fret note at 1:45 a bit weird for example. But as a singer, I don't even want to think about playing bass whilst singing so I'd gladly give him a pass too.

[@TheAlbumsThatMadeMe]

Dat tone!

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Thanks Sean!

[@rickdeckard7161]

Enjoyed this so much. Great tone and sound. I'm a bass but so hearing that added thump is great

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Thank you very much!

[@rickdeckard7161]

@@LeoBassCovers2 you're very welcome! Great band to show off your talents with. What are your favorite bassists and bands?

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Thanks again :) I'd definitely say Martin Mendez from Opeth and Colin Edwin from Porcupine Tree. As for bands, probably... Pain of Salvation and Tool. all quite progressive i guess

[@emirhanyuksek8276]

Enjoyed watching it! Quality work as always, thanks man!

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Thanks man!

[@matthewknesel3309]

Great cover. Really enjoyed each section of the song.

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Much appreciated :)

Thanks again :)

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@slitherywall4460]

Can you do Pain with an Anchor by Mastodon? Been trying to find a tan forever and yours are the greatest. Keep up the AMAZING work that you do for us!

[@longlivethetastyhills5153]

LFG YES!

[@kahwigulum]

mastodons best song

[@D3ft0ne]

What is the signal chain here? Such nice punchy tone.

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Oh I don't quite remember but it sounds like I used a lot of distortion for this tone, starting with a lot of bass and treble for that deeper tone. I used DSP Parallax for this so I bet that a lot of the tone also came from that software

[@TheRodersAbides]

I know they play turned down a full step, but this song could really easily be played in drop D. Another great video man!!

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Thank you!

[@bobzilla6734]

Fuck yea! 🤘🏽

[@joshjackburns]

Bro, I’ve got a very similar looking Cort. Learning the song on Rocksmith. Pretty fun but hurts the hell out of my right hand

[@LeoBassCovers2]

It definitely requires a lot of stamina..

[@ziegh5369]

Nice cover, ¿are you planning doing more mastodon covers?

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Possibly.. I enjoyed making this video so I don't think this will be the final Mastodon bass cover!

I dig their earlier stuff.

[@dpotter2113]

Would you have any interest in doing a lesson on Fair to Midland's "Musical Chairs"? The walking bassline in that is so good.

[@LeftOverRavioli]

Can you do four chords that made a million by porcupine tree? Very underrated song from lightbulb sun

[@Svartig4ldur]

hmm, what string gauge You use for D standard on a fivestring?

[@LeoBassCovers2]

45 - 65 - 85 - 105 - 125

Porcupine Tree - Harridan for the next one?

[@slitherywall4460]

Yessss!

[@yuudai2323]

I'm trying to learn this with a pick but I feel absolutely slow. Is finger plucking better?

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Both ways are pretty difficult tbh. Muting in this song is easier when using fingers however

[@yuudai2323]

@@LeoBassCovers2 well thats good to hear at least! its such a good song and I will master it soon!

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Yes you will!
