To be serious though, I was in a relationship because "hmm a bass player in a leather jacket".

Without bass there is no rhythm or soul the music sounds flat

Wouldn’t people want partners with demonstrable senses of rhythm?

Good bass does just as much as good drums for metal in my opinion. Here's a good example of every part of a band with a chance to shine:

BEYOND CREATION - Omnipresent Perception: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0MkJtI3FvU

Drums - 3:08

Guitar 1 - 3:49

Bass - 4:17

Guitar 2 - 4:45

That's some crazy talent. They don't even need vocals. Probably more listenable without, actually. But I'm getting old.

From the tapping to the fretless six to the solo duel, very very cool. Thank you
