One of the best post-punk bass lines. It's very interesting the 'lead-ish' role that bass had in the post-punk of the 80's. Not sure if Peter Hook started the trend, but it's amazing nonetheless.

Thanks!

[@melissajade7717]

The Garlands album had the best basslines in the history of Post-Punk. Still one of my favorite albums of all time.

[@ioannist.5568]

I can totally agree with you. Enjoy my cover of the song Garlands too

[@user-fj9kt6en6v]

so hypnotic

[@ioannist.5568]

Thanks❤

[@ioannist.5568]

For all of you who ask about the chorus pedal I use, it is a Providence Anadime bass chorus. A Japanese company I trust when it comes to bass chorus and bass compressor. Thanks for watching and I promise I will upload the whole album really soon!

[@bassgirl_denalia9087]

Love this cover! My favorite Cocteau Twins song.

[@ioannist.5568]

Thanks you! I appreciate that!

[@TheVioletBunny]

Such an amazing underrated bassline

[@ioannist.5568]

Indeed! Thanks for watching!

[@vannjunkin8041]

Such a timeless song..Man I need to get back in the 4 string. I miss it..

[@maikisan2981]

Every day i play the lines from Garlands. This, But i'm not and Garlands are my favs. Not to forget Blind dumb deaf. Will Heggie is absolute amazing. As member from Lowlife too.

[@ioannist.5568]

Indeed. Its one of the few records that the bass is prominent and leading.

@@ioannist.5568 Hello Ioannis. After a year of workin' now we have finally recorded "Wax and wane". It's just a demo and not perfect. I hope you enjoy it. Greetinx from Germany.

Excellent Cocteau tone. Awash with chorus and reverb.

[@ioannist.5568]

Thanks Sam! I actually used 2 chorus pedals with different speeds and just a little bit of reverb between 800-4kHz

[@TheDarkP0et]

@@ioannist.5568 What other chorus did you stack the Anadime with? It sounds nice. :)

This makes me want to buy a bass guitar. I’ve never played an instrument in my life but love alternative rock !

[@ioannist.5568]

I am glad to hear that. Buy one and focus on it!

@@ioannist.5568 The whole Garlands album and Will Heggies bass are most definitely a yes! Great playing! I'd love to have the equipment to give this a try.

[@ioannist.5568]

@@AuditoryOdditor I think it would be nice if I'd cover the whole album. Bt w all you need is a pick and an analog chorus

[@bobk9879]

Wonderful rendition. Just stumbled across your channel when searching for classic numbers like this from back in the day. Great to see you’ve also covered Siouxsie, Killing Joke, Cure and Bauhaus too. Subscribed! Thank you and please keep up the good work. 👍

[@ioannist.5568]

Τhanks. There are some post punks bands I really love and they have influenced me as a player. I will do some more in the future, little bit busy with other projects this period.

[@bobk9879]

@@ioannist.5568 thank you very much. There’s plenty on here to keep me going. I’ve left it rather late but at long last am having a go at playing (trying with very limited success 😊). Good luck with your projects 👍

NIce playing man, how can I find you on IG?

[@ioannist.5568]

I don't use IG for bass covers, just for photographing, whenever i have time of course

[@EK_609]

What kind of pick are you using, if you don't mind me asking.

[@stevencook3894]

I would also like to know. Ive been using a 0.96 mm

[@MatheusSouza-li4jf]

Does it sound too different than that without pedals? I just got a plain bass and was thinking of playing this song

[@ioannist.5568]

It will sound fine. The original recordind doesn't have that much chorus. It is important to play with a pick though.But every bass line sounds so much richer with a chorus..don't you think ?

[@georgevargasjr.8911]

Tab? Please!

[@ioannist.5568]

I don't use tabs unfortunately. You can slow down the speed of the video instead
