Fuck dude! Thanks for showing us him, I'm sure none of us have ever heard of him or seen any videos of him before!

Alex webster is the shit. Ive met the guy, and by his speech it sounds like hes doing too much headbanging hahaha.

Overall hes a good songwriter.

Well, Cannibal Corpse is pretty big in the Death Metal world...and Alex Webster does own, his technique and writing skills are incredible...anyways, heres another great video of him playing 'The Gallery of Suicide' (Great song, a work of fucking art)...some more fucking intense headbanging too check out him whipping his head around at 02:02, 02:33 and 04:02. That can't be good for the neck but who fucking cares, keep it brutal!

Windmilling while playing is easy, you just have to make sure you can...

1. Play the riff by feel (so without looking)
2. Keep balance windmilling that speed in the first place
3. keep your picking hand at the centre of your body, so that it stays still while your upper body moves.
4. The very bottom of the windmill must coincide with the beat, so you stay in time.

Haha, I am.

That comment made before was pure sarcasm... I dunno just got the urge. You're showing us Alex Webster, one of the biggest names in Death Metal bass, and sort of 'introducing' us to him like we've never heard of him.



It's a shame he doesn't know the difference between ' your ' and ' you're ' though.

Good to see that the American education system is doing it's part in educating their people properly eh man? lol

And I wasn't "introducing" Alex Webster as though he's new or anything...I just thought he would make a good example of a great bassist who can headbang like a chimp on meth while playing every note flawlessly. Sorry if I gave anybody the idea that I'm a n00b lol. I'm not, I was introduced to death metal at the age of 9

~Cheers

youtube some Cephalic Carnage bootleg videos and watch Jawsh (bassist) literally mosh while playing. He has one of those nifty wireless bass things.

within the metal scene your stage presence is fully necessary and must be impressive eg headbanging/moshing/windmills/feet on foldback speakers even punching yourself or your instruments??! From what I've seen you should also perfect an evil glare, metal should be nasty not fun...
anyways who wants to go see a metal band and watch them all stand there like zombies even if they play the best damn set you've ever heard?? You headbang = they headbang... if you fall over just keep playing \m/

Anyone else have more interesting stage techniques to share?

i go to concerts to watch musicians, not kids hopping around. im not getting on anyone for feeling the music, and getting into it, but if someone is making evil faces and doing little kicks i tend to laugh hysterically in their general direction. lets leave the choreography to ashley simpson.

how his intonation is so strong on fretless while jumping around like that is impressive. let alone what he is actually playing. did they kick him out again? its a shame if they did. how many kick ass fretless players are you gonna find to play that technical of shit.
