You're just laughin at me! Well' fuck you too!

It's all good man, I'm laughing with you friend, not at.

Peace and mungbeans.

I would say that ALice in Chains was my big first band...

But Metallica (well james) made me pick up a guitar
Slayer made me realise I wasn't as heavy or fast as I thought
Pantera showed me that melody CAN go with trash to create power
Nirvana showed me that I didn't need to be Steve Vai.

But ALice in Chains made me love music

some of my favorite bassists are also: Marcus Miller, Larry Graham and Bootsy Collins.

Bassists are always over shadowed by guitarists,im adding
Minus the bear-Bands Like it When You Yell "Yar" at Them [EP],Highly Refined Pirates,Menos El Oso,they make beer commercials like this and This Is What I Know About Being Gigantic

to my album list that has changed me!

[sickened]

The Matrix Soundtrack featuring My Own Summer was probably a big one too. It took me out of my nu-metal Staind and Linkin Park phases and threw into the world of REAL metal where I discovered the Deftones and got totally hooked.

Same here. Strange, but same.

Me too! It threw off the shackles of pop/rock & nu-metal, It made me notice how narrow my image of music had been.

glad you noticed it, sickened. My man!
