This fast-chugging bass line combined with the unconventional time signature and unrelenting driving force of the track all make for a great song to learn as well as play. Jon proves to be a helpful teacher as he dissects the techniques used in the song, taking you through every element of the part as well as talking about where some of the ideas that made the song came from. Many of the elements of this bass part are pretty unique, including playing power chords on the bass (for that beefy metal sound). This lesson is a little more advanced than some of the others, so it is a great chance for more experienced bassists to have a go and learn some energetic new stuff along the way!
