My pick is a tie between Greg Christian (Testament) and Frank Bello (Anthrax). Honorable mention go's to D.D. Verni (Overkill) and of coarse Cliff Burton.

I've always liked DD's sound, but another bassist with a cool sound is Steve DiGiorgio from Sadus.

Another good player is Jason Ward from Flotsam.

Was always very impressed with the playing of Rex Brown in Pantera. In the later years his sound got stronger, it has a real strong punchy sound which I like. I really enjoyed the 5 strong stuff he did here and there. That low BOOM

Is Pantera Thrash? lol!

I always thought Jason's crowning achievement was "Doomsday for the Deciever".

Cliff was the best metal bassist in my opinion, but some of his bass work with Metallica was kind of buried under the guitars, but I really like Overkill's sound as far as bass goes. Steve Harris from Maiden also has a nice sound. Long live Clifford Lee Burton

Roger Patterson on Atheist's Piece of Time (more of a tech-death album, but with lots of thrash influence). Shame he had to die.

cliff burton is easily the greatest thrash bassiest ever and since thrash is the greatest music in the world he is the best in the world. and hell no pantera is not thrash they are the biggest sell out band in the world!

A band must have done something before they can sell out.

D.D. Verni is an awesome bassist.

» Stryper announces ex-Firehouse bassist Perry Richardson will be their new bass player
» If you could play bass in any band...
» What would this band sound like?
» This band is the best AC/DC sound I ever heard
» IS it better for a band to remain their sound or go MODERN?
