RINGS OF SATURN - "Shards Of Scorched Flesh" on bass

Rings of Saturn needs to re-think their "no more bass player" policy. And you should post just the bass track.

[@Giofergom]

Well, you should send this video to the guys at rings of saturn. Cause this songs was speeded up after recording. So technically, you're better for the job than the actual members. Awesome job!

[@MrSulfurMustard]

Absolutely not fond of their music, but out of all these guys the bass player actually did record at normal speed. There's even a (very easy to find over here, really) playthrough where he slays this song. By the way, the guy's a technically gifted jerk. :}

[@Giofergom]

MrSulfurMustard hahaha indeed the bass player is gifted as fuck. Wich is really odd hahaha

[@faronhemlock]

check out playthrough luca and miles did for godless times. i dont think that was speeded up after recording.

[@klunymaster]

No fucking song from ROS is speed up. Only jealous fucktards and trolls say that

[@monsterfukk7737]

I hate to break it to you but it is sped up. Joel Omans, the guitarist, left the band because he thought Lucas Mann was a shitty musician for recording at half speed, and they got into fights over it too much, or something along those lines. I'm sure if you dig, you can find the facebook post where Joel explains why he left, and confirms that Lucas records everything at half speed. Personally I don't think it matters in the slightest if they did. I don't give a fuck how they make their music, I just care if the music is good, regardless of how they get it to sound good.

The video would have been much more effective if he reduced volume of the song to half and played over that (at his current volume). Right now, your amazing bass playing is (for the most part) buried. How about a 're-mixed' version of this video?
