Dude just let it go. Godsmack sucks and the Beatles don't. Now go cry to more of your nu-metal.

yeh dude srsly shut up, you just aren't going to win this

I'm not saying it's *because* he did a solo, in that video he demonstrated that he has more skill tha Paul, that's all.

Also, Godsmack's bass player, Robbie Merrill, has rythm, balance and can play at least a couple of different styles, just that I'm aware of (Heavy Metal, hard rock, slap bass)

What can Paul play that Robbie cannot? inb4 wise ass remark like 'good' or whatever little unoriginal, unfunny BS you will probably reply with.

You latch to that notion blindly but you're wrong. You can childishly repeat that over and over again but it won't magically become true, you're in denial that you like lame pop bands that wouldn't impress a 10 year old and I listen to music that actually invokes emotion and pasison. You have no counter-argument, the Beatles suck, They are both lame and have less talent, I have to go to get up for work in about 4 hours so I'll talk to you guys tomorrow sometime (you'll be here right? You never aren't it seems)

You haven't replied to my last 2 posts. And here's another Beatles bassline which ****s over Godsmack's bassist.

Passion* still can't spell I see.

In defense of Oomph, I don't think there's any official doctrine you can lay out to scientifically prove one band's better than another.
Sleepy Jack, Urban, and Rainerd just constantly use their knowledge of language and musical production to seemingly outwit the other person.
Eh, for one reason or another I enjoy the banter.
You guys should host a talk show, or something.............
you make running in circles entertaining

Only he didn't, that sounded like something being played by a kid who just learned how to slap. Anyone who knows the technique could play what he plays. Listen to that and then compare it to work by Victor Wooten, Bootsy Collins, Larry Graham, Stanley Gordon, Louis Johnson, Flea and Les Claypool (when they're not even soloing) and you will realise just how mediocre it is in comparison.

Just having rhythm is not enough. Thats required of any bass player. Show me one good bassline that in terms of melody and creativity is better than anything by Paul Mccartney.

For a good band for starters.

He's the one trying to do that.

You know no one has even mentioned the band this guy is named after.

What a sh*tpile of suck.

All i've asked him to do (about 7 times now ) is give a straight answer to some examples of bands Godsmack have influenced and ask him to show how they've changed music , which shouldn't be too difficult when he's saying they're better than the most influential band of the 20th century.
