I wouldnt say so, without Rainer Pavor wouldnt have got any attention at all (I bet). And seriously, is there any band that is similar? Come on, even one death metal band must be like that, only Rainer has got those crazy ass licks.
I wouldnt listen to Pavor if Rainer wouldnt be there, or neither would I
have heard of 'em.

Did you actually listen to the rest of it? He played with a pick for like 30 seconds and then all sorts of slap/tapping stuff. To say he sucks at bass is pretty rediculous.

any decent bassist has worked on speed, its easier to learn speed than technique and precision

No, there music is good, but random wanking-ass bass solos get in the way of things.

yes i did listen to all of it. the begging part where he played with a pick was unessesary. any good bassist could have played that part with there fingers. that tapping was easy because i sort of "played along "with it and if i could find the accual tab ( i could do it by ear but i don't have the patience) i could play it damn well. i still think the solo was lame and that he sucked. end of conversation.

Well I guess that kind of reply is expected from a 15 year old.
He is obviously very technically proficient and well versed in any many different techniques. And im sorry but the whole attitude that playing with a pick makes you inferior to someone that plays with their fingers is ludicrous. Its as valid a technique as any, and to simply say he sucks because you dont like him shows how a good amount close-mindedness.

dude, when i said conversation over, i ment there was to be nothing else said about "X-Japan" or thier bassist. i have a right to my opinon and i still don't like the way he playes. now don't say anything else about it. and by the way, " well i guess that kind of reply is expected from a 15 year old", is kind of offensive. thats like saying all 15 year olds are stupid and don't know anything about anything. i suggest you watch what you say next time or i might do something about it.

And that is perfectly fine, you are totally entilted to your opinion. Just realize that your opinion isnt the final word, anyone else can feel completely differently about X-Japan or Taiji and thats perfectly fine. For the record, I believe that bass should be played with fingers as well but that dosent mean that sometimes a pick can be appropriate in certain situations.

Unfortunately i cannot hear the bass solo because i have no sound at the moment for any reason.
I do not dislike Pick Bassists, as Rex Brown (among others) or however his name was played in a very groovy way with Pantera.
And the very worst bass solo ever is without any doubt sting of the bumble bee. Its just so terrible. Im by far too lazy too list all the things i do not like about that shit.
back to topic: You could post a photo of John Myung. I personally will not do so as I think he is a bit overrated (definitely not his technique, though).

You mean Flight of the Bumble Bee? If so, thats a classical piece that a lot of shred guitarists cover to prove themselves. Ive never heard it on bass though.

Youre right, there are plenty good interpretations on shred guitar, and the "piano version" beats them all. That manowar bloke called his "version" sting o t bumblebee, afaik. Maybe he wanted to write sort of a part two of that (originally!) excellent tune.
