Thanks for doing a play through, I actually started out a finger style player and do both depending on what I'm playing, in fact face to face was the first band I played exclusively with a pick (except for our "acoustic" tours where I played finger style) i'm sure crossover between fingers and picks informs my stylistic choices but who knows.. whenever it's freezing cold and I'm worried about a difficult first song of a set Trever always mentions I do it to myself..hahahaha

I laughed a little when he started slapping to get that run right, I used to do that all the time when I played more bass. I like the finger tone better mostly, but there are little timing things that I simply can not do with fingers.

Chris Shiflett used to play guitar in a punk band called No Use For A Name before joining the Foo Fighters. Funny thing is the bassist from No Use For A Name (Matt Riddle) was the original bassist for Face to Face...and he is pretty neat too

Except david sims of jesus lizard and scratch acid and carlos dingler of interpol- but thats not really underground, but what is anymore. Barricade by interpol would be a great song to do a video on. And post punk has kinda been under represented on your channel(especially for being such a great rock subgenre for bass) so that might get my vote even before nomeansno.

Face to Face recorded Protection there and I got to drive them to and from the airport. Scott was super cool, and him I talked about music for a long time. We nerded out over our love for Rush, Yes, and other prog bands of the 70’s. He’s also a pretty damn good guitar player and played some Van Halen for me

But I think you would dig them. Very technical, at times heavy, but super melodic. Add em to the never-ending list!

Honestly, as someone who ended up playing bass in my bands, I think a lot of us punk bassists started as guitar players. Rodger from less than Jake did 100%. A lot of that picking and styling is just playing what a second guitarist would play… on bass 😅 Then we fall in love with bass and learn how to actually play it like it “should be,” but that “guitar mind” never fades, it just gets mixed in. If you’re having some difficulty learning picking, my main advice is to anchor your hand. If you watch Scott he almost never moves his wrist from where it is. Super important for control.
@LowEndUniversity
@LowEndUniversity 9 ай бұрын
Great points! I was thinking about this during the video - is that picking cadence really as hard as it looks or sounds? May be a breeze for a guitarist, but what I do know is that overdriven leads are always easier to make sound clean. Bass has much wider string spacing, cleaner tones (no overdrive compression to rely on), and I think getting it to sound that good is the feat itself. Reminds me of the times I got my amazing guitar player friends to try to shred on bass and it always falls apart pretty quickly 😂

You're spot on, the key to this style of picking is a mix of alternate/ inside picking and string skipping. This along with the way notes are grouped in 3's and 4's makes this style of riff so interesting to both listen to and play

Face to Face are so freaking good live. They have more of an emotional touch than a lot of other bands of the genre and are great song writers. You can hear that even on their very early stuff like Disconnected. This band introduced me to sooooo many bands that I would fall in love with. They would take so many up and comers on tour with them. The amount of people who discovered Alkaline Trio, Saves the Day, The Anniversary, Get Up Kids, etc. from going to Face to Face shows is actually crazy. They may have been a "punk" band but they were instrumental in making the late 90's/early 2000's pop punk/emo explosion happen for many groups. That Vagrant era of bands is very dear to my heart and I would have never have found any of that stuff if I wasn't going to Face to Face shows.

@@LowEndUniversity btw, you should check Dan Andriano (Alkaline Trio) out. It's not the most skilled Punk Rock player in the world, but I think he is very underrated. His roots are in classic rock and he used to play in ska bands and such. I'd like to know what you think about his playing. Unlike Jason Black (Hot Water Music, that released an EP together), Joe Principe (Rise Against), Matt Freeman (Rancid) his sound is less "in your face", and I think that's the main reason people don't mention him a lot.

YES! I commented on a previous video (I think maybe Rancid - Maxwell Murder) that you should watch some Face to Face, specifically this play through. Shiflett is the bomb! Thanks for doing this one!

Another fantastic episode man, thanks. Didnt realize how much this dude rips on bass, ive always just been taken by his tone. Youve opened my eyes. Inbreds - any sense of time. I think you'd dig this bassist.

this song has insane picking for the main riff for sure. Took me a bit to learn it and play it to speed. This kind of punk is what I started out learning right off the bat during high school. PLastic pics were never able to cut it for me. Because of how they felt for faster stuff. It's always been Dunlops for sure. At first it was lighter picks till I learned harder picks made me sound more precice and punchier. so I went to the jim dunlop .73s or .88s were always my go to for past punk picking like this. I love watching your reactions to bands I love. I probably only discovered you a few weeks ago and you keep checking out songs from bands I grew up listening to and who shaped me as a bass player. Streetlight, Propagands, This song.. I also watched the AFI one. Which were also part of my early bass playing. I thin it was a single second from the shut your mouth and open your eyes album was the song my high school punk band would peridically butcher. lol

Such a monster bassline. Learning stuff like this when I started because of the genre was a ton of fun and really challenging. Opposite of you, though, there are other techniques and playing styles that I really struggle with because I never did those things starting out. I also never really practiced alternate picking. I still play mostly down strokes, so there are some songs that my playing sounds different from. But stuff like this ALWAYS drives me back to practice. Every time.

This band was actually massive for me when I started playing bass as a teen. I started out as a pick player and have been playing this style specifically for a long time now.

I think punk rock made me really appreciate bass a lot more than normal radio rock music ever did. Bass seemed so boring compared to how flashy Van Halen’s or Slash’s, etc. guitars were made bass seem so forgotten and buried beneath. The first time I heard, “London Calling” and that bass slides in OVER those striking, down stroked guitars, it was game over for my musical taste. It just sounded so raw and unique. I was 12. The next week I bought “…And Out Come The Wolves.” Glad to see this music still inspires other folks too.

Love this whole series of videos! Back in high school (90s) I used to get into all of these bands by buying the cheap compilation CDs from all the punk/ska/hardcore record labels (Epitaph, Fat, Hopeless, Lookout, Victory, Revelation, Equal Vision, Moon Ska, Asian Man, etc). A couple recommendations that you haven't hit yet: MxPx - Chick Magnet Mustard Plug- Lolita Avail - Cross Tie or Fifth Wheel

WOW ! FACE TO FACE REACTION! Face to Face are the reason that I'm alive. Lost my mom with 17 yrs old and started living by myself.. drugs adiction and so many bad stuff! Love this band, keep it going! You should do Lagwagon, really! "GIve It Back" has a awesome bassline and mini-solo! You gotta listen to album version lyrics are great ! EDIT 2: You should do Millencolin early stuff as well like "Olympic", "Leona", "Dance Craze", "Mr. Clean", "Friends til the end"
