Don't be fooled, they just want to mooch a lunch off you cuz they spent their allowance on instruments!

Look, if the frontman would just loosen the purse strings a little bit, I could afford to buy a much better bass while I continue to starve.
Me at 14 trying to recreate my favorite palm-muted metal strumming patterns from songs I know: "what the hell why does their shit sound so good and thumping and my shit sounds like AM radio static in a tin can?"
Me, many many years later: "BASS! IT WAS ALL MISSING THE FUCKING BASS!"
A song without bass is like a glass without water or something like that
It took a while as a guitarist/keyboard player just learning and starting out to realize how fundamental it is. I kept trying to turn up the low end of things in the mixer in my software to compensate without realizing what I was missing.
Bassists are based
Thundercat is a master at the base who really opened my eyes to their unappreciated percussive role in music.
OMG yes!!! ...And now I have to go listen to some Thundercat.
And the OG les claypool. Both are incredible in their own right
But doctor, I am
Pagliaccithe bassist.Geddy Lee is the GOAT who kinda looks like one
"Why don't you make like a bass and be inaudible"
"BASS IS THE FOUNDATION OF THE BAND!"
Bassed
Les Claypool would like a word.

As a metalhead I'm very ashamed that I can't make the difference between the guitar and the bass, please don't tease me
No shame in that. You could start accustoming your ears by searching YT for "bass and drums isolated" and listen to those versions and then the originals and see if you separate the bass better.
Hmm, is there supposed to be much of a difference? I recon, if it was physically possible to make a trumpet sound like a tuba, that would be very popular. And as I understand, that is possible with e-guitar and e-bass, because electronics...
There are a few websites that can separate stems. I use lalal.ai to get the bass line and then convert it to tabs using another service.
There is also a Bocchi lemmy ... thing. Thread, board, magazine, whichever.
Let's remember Jaco, the great. https://piped.video/watch?v=Rjea9_mscLE
Man, I just think about the opening for "Would?" by Alice in Chains. People who underappreciate the bass haven't heard that song.
The bassline is front and center in nutshell
Other bass-first songs include "You've Seen The Butcher" and "Radiant City" by the Deftones.
I mean I don't feel underappreciated. I've never once had a problem finding a group to play with.
What's a bassist?
John Paul Jones
And then there was Paul McCartney.
Just my opinion, but bass is disgusting, both the instrument and the sound it makes. The strings are so fat I felt nauseous the first time I played one.
