Re: Bass that will burst your heart !

The bass in Doomsnight (I think it's called) by Azzido Da Bass blew one of my Leak speakers when I cranked it up.

White Stripes - Ball & Biscuit from Elephant


Er...I might be mistaking but I don't think there was a bass player in the band!

Re: Bass that will burst your heart !

Sub bass in metal isn't particularly common.

13th Step by A Perfect Circle has very low bass.

Obsolete by Fear factory has a lot of sub bass drops. ('Shock' has loads, 'Hi-tech hate' has a nice long one that ends the intro)

Strapping Young Lad like to drop in the occasional sub bass too.

Never got on with Soulfly.

Slipknot? Haven't heard much sub-bass in Slipknot. Will have to listen again. (Oh yeah. Don't forget the new one's out on Monday.)

Bass that will burst your heart? Madonna Vouge on a JBL PA system with 11,000 watts of power resulting in 132db listening levels in a room 18ft by 21ft made the air move...you could feel the air pressure changing! It was awsome!

Re: Bass that will burst your heart !

'The Libertines - Can't Stand Me Now' has a lovely low end growl to it, it's lovely. 'Vans' by The Pack has the most insane bass I've ever heard, to anyone familiar with the track; I'm sure you know what I mean. Also 'Clones' by the Roots, the begin drums are so incredibly hard hitting, it's quite scary.

Have you seen the new song's music Video?  They seem to cater for all now a day, not just a screaming teens....superb.

Portishead - Dummy track 6

 

That track blew two sets of my speakers!

 

Bassy music is fantastic - my Dad's a very good bass player (session, Bob Marley, etc) so really do LOVE good non chavvy bass.

No, not yet. I'm hoping the CD is waiting for me on the doormat when I get home from work.

Indeed. 'Frozen' has nice super-low drops during the Arab-esc strings middle 8. 'Power of goodbye'( I think it's called that) is VERY bassy.
