Rex has always been one of my favorite bass players. Hopefully this band will be worthwhile... Terry Date producing is a big plus.

DOWN/Ex-PANTERA Bassist REX BROWN Featured In ARMS OF THE SUN Project - Feb. 5, 2010

ARMS OF THE SUN, a project featuring Rex Brown (PANTERA, DOWN) on bass, John Luke Hebert (KING DIAMOND) drums, Lance Harvill on vocals and guitar, and Ben Bunker (GRYN) on guitar, has completed work on thirteen tracks that were produced and mixed by Terry Date (DEFTONES, PANTERA, SOUNDGARDEN). The material is set for a late February release through Extreme Music, which provides class-A production music to all major networks and studios, ad agencies and production companies, including FOX, HBO, NBC, BBC, MTV, SKY, ABC, Discovery, Nickelodeon, Turner Entertainment Networks, Universal, Lions Gate, Miramax, Sony Pictures, Touchstone and Disney, to name a few.

ARMS OF THE SUN recorded the music, written by Lance Harvill, late last year at Willie Nelson's Pedernales Recording Studio in Austin. The project is executive-produced by Sir George Martin (THE BEATLES) and Mark Ross for the Grandmaster Series, which celebrates four of the world's top producers spanning from the '60s through the '90s, including Sir George himself, Terry Date, Jack Douglas (AEROSMITH), and Hugh Padgham (THE POLICE).

What style of music is it? Rock? Metal? Southern sludge core?

Who'd be the best bass player in metal? Rex Brown's new band. Icon_scratch

I never asked myself this question. Bass players are usually not the stars of the band.

That's as hard a question to answer as "Who's the best guitar player in metal?"

Still, here's some standouts off the top of my head.

Lemmy
Geddy Lee
Steve Harris
Tom Angelripper
D.D. Verni
Schmier
Tom Araya
