Black Metal with ONLY BASS
Музыка
Electric guitars are probably the most significant instruments in Black Metal, aside from the drums. The bass guitar mostly remains unnoticed. Let's change that a make a full Black Metal song WITHOUT guitars.
Only bass... okay and drums... and vocals.
0:00 Song intro
0:13 Let's go
0:39 Melody
1:06 Probably chorus
1:34 Bridge
1:48 Probably chorus again
2:16 Melody with vocals
2:43 Break
2:53 Uh!
3:24 Tschüss

Agreed. Pay attention Farvaan 👍🤘
Necromantia released some of the best BM I know with an 8 string and a 4 string bass and no rhythm guitars. Everything is possible in BM.

But aren't bass
When you're only left with a bassist because your guitarist had.. multiple accidents happen to him.
Just a little song for the summer silly season. Cheers!

If it was one whole scale lower and no distortion/overdrive, it would have been perfect. Good song, though.
I would like to hear an entire album in this style
Awesome vocals man, keep it up!
its sounds god damn cool man, we need more bass black metal!

Armagedda's album Ond Spiritism is a perfect example of bass being used audibly and integral to the music in Black Metal,I wish more bands did this

That is so sick! I love bass, especially when I hear it use in black metal genre. Nevertheless, I stuck here because of this golden vocal!
Nice Necromantia cover.
If I'm not wrong, the first Barathrum album was recorded with 3 bass guitars (and they also claimed the drummer was using human bones instead of drum sticks).
Love those vocals! I’m not really a massive fan of the high pitched and prefer those pained howls, much more aggressive sounding imo.
I'm a bassist and I have to admit, this is way better than what I expected when I opened the video. And the vocals are awesome dude !!

Same thing. Fuck guitars!!!
Bass + guitar effect = metal ✅ Cliff burton have done it with super metal riff..
Really liked the ending of the song. The thick sound of the bass added such a cool atmosphere to that riff. It's a shame bass is not used in black metal very well, but when it is, it adds so much to the song. Great video!
Necromantia be like:
Your vocals have really improves since the beginning, props 🎉
Necromantia used 8-string bass, not a fan, but interesting stuff
This sounds pretty cool. While ago Simon Smith recorded acoustic versions of some black metal classics, which sounded even better. Would love to hear only bass or acoustic guitar black metal album.
@Farvann So, you just prove it’s perfectly possible without any guitar. Bravo.
There are good bands like that, in my city there is one, Defuntos.
The secret ingredient hehe
Barathrums first album (Hailstorm) is a pretty good example of being bass-lead black metal
Bass players seeing this video: YOOOO LOOK AT THIS YOU FILTHY GUITAR PLAYERS, IT CAN BE DONE!!! *proceeds to not make any records or bands with only bass*
I will (hopefully) be alive to see farvann hit 100k.... AT LAST

Maybe in 12 months or something. Stay healthy! 😄
There was a local black metal band where I used to live near that did this just drummer, vocalist and bassist. Bassist was vocalist
Great stuff Farv, keep it up!
Dope bass tremolo picking! 🔥🤘🏼
pretty interesting. i think adding more distortion and playing some power chords way down the neck would sound even better
Cool riffs! Love it!
cool riffs Biervann
man you accidentally made a riff i've been working on bruh (nice song tho)
I used to do bass and lead vocals in a punk band and we kept recruiting guitarists who turned out to be unreliable and didn't show up to practise/gigs. So a lot of our shows ended up sounding kinda like this as we had it *down* playing with no guitars. On the album we did I had to play the guitars. (Which is fine these days but was uncharted territory back then.)
Cliff Burton would be proud.
Yeah, I know what it is, I mean, i play the guitar part with my bass on all my songs !
Whoa nice job!
Is no one gonna talk about that satisfying ass riff
absolutely awesome stuff!
Stark, da ging mir ja schon ein wenig das Herz auf, als du diese wunderbaren Töne aus meinem Lieblingsinstrument geholt hast!
Really a great track 👌🤘
Great sound! Thanks!
Sick asf 🙌
wow that sounds great and it's also a very good song👍🤘👍 Very well done!
Hammer geil!
best thing i've heard all month
Awesome!!!
Really good.
I'm kind of glad you did this in a way. I play the bass, but don't have any friends into metal. I've considered trying to find a way to make it work either doing some black metal or grindcore. Maybe a mix of the two. Glad to see it still sounds cool.
Glad to see that many people mentioned our very own Necromantia as an example of bass-only black metal. Truly one of a kind black metal from my homecountry Greece :D
sounds good. bass ist so ein geiles instrument. ich weis noch wie mir die kinnlade runtergefallen ist als ich erfuhr dass das for whom the bell tolls intro mit einem bass gespielt wird :3
amazing how you recreated the sound of the drums and vocals with the bass

Right?!
Fkn great concept.
Reminds me of that experiment Markus Grosskopf made: Hellbassbeaters. A full album of bass, bass and more bass with collaborations by basically every bassist in the world. Turned out quite nice!
If Cliff Burton would have discovered BM before Metallica 🐼🦡🦓🦝🎸🤘👍
Gallhammer - At The Onset of The Age of Despair has the greatest bass solo.
This sounds really cool.
That was actually pretty sick :y
if lemmy did black metal
Necromantia's first few albums are only bass if I recall correctly

These melody parts sounds sick. It could be an interesting side project 😎

Your so talented
This was a cool idea and you pulled it off amazingly. Your voice sounds like what Varg was probably trying to sound like in early Burzum but yours sounds much stronger and better than his did though.

He apparently is happy with the vocals on Hvis Lyset Tar Oss, so I think that's more 'what he was trying to sound like'...
Stoner Doom is a good one with just bass.

amazing, i wonder how it would sound with bad production quality. I bet id be epic.
Great!
It honestly sounds more or less the same as using a 7 or 8 string, haha. Pretty good stuff.
So basically Bell Witch, but not Funeral Doom Black Metal. Also great work on this one it sounded very cool and your vocals are very cool.
sounds relaxing
Fuckin sick song. great vocals and delivery too
Oh das klingt super!
NICE TONE
I have a long ways to go but I’m trying to make black metal and doom metal with just bass, drums and vocals. I’ve done weird things like split my bass signal in two and having one bass eqd high and guitar type distortion; things like that. It’s experimental but fun
That bridge is soo good, I love bridges
Very good song! btw Necromantia had done this with Scarlet Evil Witching Black, creating one of the best BM ever!
Well I guess you started a trend there, see those "Bass-BM"-Bands popping up in some months. Jokes aside, sounds good.
¡Gracias!

Hey Farvann! What’s your opinon on Tancëlcore, Kellersynth ect…?
I wonder if there are any two piece bands that sound like this.
Man, your voice is very close to Franta’s. Not bad.
Awesome, we need a black metal band with two bassist and no guitarists! It would be an original improvement for the genre. Using a 9 strings guitar may achieve a similar result haha

Whats your opinion on Grausamkeit aka B.S.o.D. aka Trollheim(etc)? Despite the questionable views of the artist, I consider his work exceptionally good. For me it also kinda seems like he put the use of synths, like Varg did with Burzum, to a whole next level, especially in "Krätze". Also his "Dungeon Synth" stuff as Trollheim is so nice to listen to since its very ambient
