    I'd probably use this if I was writing songs and feeling lazy one day or for demos. Once I start writing my own songs properly I'll be writing metal, industrial and darkwave stuff with the odd bit of folk. With a lot of the goth and non goth wave genres bass can often be seen as more important anyways and guitar is just a bit of melody or effects, this a guitar player meaning me saying this so...

    I get the memes and shit. But the bass indifference in the metal scene is just getting exhausting. It's totally possible to have a good tone and be a valuable and unique bass player in today's metals bands. But more and more people I meet don't take it seriously. It's disappointing as a bass player in several metal bands... It's especially disappointing when people ask others in my band what bass plug-in they used when they hear our music for the first time. As if it can't be an actual person playing it...
