That bass guitar 😮😮❤❤

[@notsure1969]

I know, right? Even thru my phone speakers, it comes out crispy as hell.

[@jaya1305]

My thoughts exactly! As a bass player myself, I love the fact that, at least from all the NP3 songs I've heard, he goes for a crisp, clear bass sound that you can actually hear instead of a heavily distorted tone (what I call the "Dingwall through a Darkglass" sound) where the bass gets lost in the mix! It kind of reminds me of the bass playing on Watchtower's "Control & Resistance" which really stands out.

[@Terrible_Peril]

@@jaya1305I’d describe “the dingwall/dg sound” as a chunky “split n grit” where this is much more kinda active bass, mild drive. If I close my eyes this gives very Warwick, kinda Spector (with the HAZ) vibes.

[@adzmc6681]

Official NPIII merch: downrightmerch.com/collections/nuclear-power-trio Donny had this to say about the new music video: “So Critical Bass Theory is one of the greatest songs, probably ever recorded. Everyone says so! We decided to film a performance video inside our compound, which is easily the greatest band rehearsal space/superhero lair ever. We needed someone amazingly famous who could tickle the ivories for us, so we invited a very, very special guest... our great friend Lizzy, the Queen of England! And you know what, she really did such a tremendous job... just an incredibly fantastic job. She really brings the video to life! Hope you all enjoy the playing, because it's the best!”
