Stewez26 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I.wouldn't say there are any difficult Muse songs bass. Its all down to opinion and skill. Some Muse songs will obviously be difficult for some people but not so difficult for others if you know what i mean. But on that note, Hysteria is quite.difficult for me. I can only play the main riff on bass. Panic Station is quite awkward for me aswell. Hysteria is pretty easy but I'm terrible at keeping it going at the right rhythm just after the first chorus... and yes, Panic Station is a bitch the slapping is okay but that 19th fret brush (what do you call that??) hurts just a bit Explorers is probably my favourite to play, it was difficult at first but I love it now.

matthijs Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Explorers is really a bit Radiohead-ish bass wise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don'tPostThePear Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 I wouldn't say Radiohead have ever had very unique bass though. Lotus Flower contains the worst use of a Minimoog ever. I think they were just trolling. (related coz of bass) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthijs Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 I wouldn't say Radiohead have ever had very unique bass though. I would say it's perhaps not unique, but very recognisable nonetheless. Then again, the bassline for Paranoid Android is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowella Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Lotus Flower contains the worst use of a Minimoog ever. I think they were just trolling. (related coz of bass) Ugh, Lotus Flower. Over rated, over hyped song. Heh, played Animals on bass. Piss easy. Yet to try Liquid State, will have to give it a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mortacciis Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 lol it's piss easy I think Liquid State is up there, not because of technical difficulty really, but keeping up that riff and while singing must be pretty hard... Live you can see him break a sweat not too far into the first verse. But I think Dark Shines wins this thread. Yep but I sing while playing also on the break doing in the mean time the bass tapping part, it was one of the tracks I've spent more time to play right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthijs Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Well, there is no bass tapping in the original so you're just making it harder than it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightsmuse Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I think it's Hysteria. I can play it but 10 times slower. I still can't play it at the normal speed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MopManMuse Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Hysteria Edit: Darkshines Hysteria is difficult, Darkshines is not Osaka jam (yeah i know it is a jam) bloody hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryanp16 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Well here's Darkshines. There's a few small mistakes, i might miss a note like once every 16 bars or something.. pretty sure the notes I do hit are 99% correct though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthijs Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 [soundcloud] [/soundcloud] Still a fricking tricky song to play properly. Feel I didn't play it layed back enough. There's some notes at the end which are different from what you see in most tabs, tried to play it properly there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's some notes at the end which are different from what you see in most tabs, tried to play it properly there. Dark Shines difficult? I don't really think so. I can play it on the upright bass if that helps and if I get my recording gear back, I'll give it a shot. Matt, nice cover, especially since you actually bothered to put the accented notes in which adds so much feel. The ending sounded good too considering that's probably the only annoying bit of the song Question, you play it slightly different to me in the verses. I'll have to give it a listen it again because I thought in the verse it was this instead but I might be wrong.

matthijs Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Thanks a lot I really like accented notes; that's what the song is about for bass, plus the ghost notes. At what point (time) do you play it differently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At what point (time) do you play it differently? In the bit I posted above which is near the end of the verses. I think you end up playing the last note an octave higher. I had a look at another tab someone posted and they did what you played plus they added the accents so I might trust yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthijs Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Mm I think, just before it hits the chorus, I play this: G|-----2------2--| D|---2-------2---| A|00-------0-----| E|---------------| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
