Archspire - A.U.M. [Bass Cover]

Ya boy is back! Thank you to everyone who has stuck around through my longest break ever. Here's my cover of Archspire's fastest song to date, 'A.U.M.' At a mind-boggling tempo of 400 bpm, and with a lot of tricky tapping, it stands as one of my biggest challenges yet. Learned using the official tab book. Enjoy!

That bass interlude during the melodic middle section might as well have been written for an organ. Such a great classical line

[@LindenPoirier]

Ikr? Everything they write is so air-tight, it's crazy. Makes me wanna really dive into theory.

[@lred1383]

It's a bit too fast for an organ, i'd say. That instrument tends to be considerably slower than piano

[@Jackpostguitar]

The first and the best bass cover of this song on the internet. Absolutely Killer!

[@chairmanofthebored6860]

Any chance of doing Abandon The Linear? Great bass in that track

[@LindenPoirier]

I've thought about it, might revisit that idea!

[@haskellthompson6310]

Nice holy crap lol

[@LindenPoirier]

Thanks dude!

[@haskellthompson6310]

Nice bass I’ve got an Ibanez BTB806MS what’s your string spacing on that kiesel? Nice bass!I wanted one so bad but didn’t want to wait lol what’s the string spacing on it I’m going to adjust mine but sock it’s at 17mm that bass you’re playing looks tighter than that. Keep making videos it’s helping me learn the songs too lol

[@LindenPoirier]

@@haskellthompson6310 Thanks dude! I'm not sure offhand, but it's a Kiesel Xccelerator X64 so there might be something about it online. It feels tighter to me than my 6-string Warwick or Schecter, though I've never paid much attention to that aspect personally.

[@anachubinidze5428]

Please do Fathom Infinite Depth

[@LindenPoirier]

I've thought about it but there are already quite a few covers of that one. Still, could be fun so maybe!

[@Sparks2490]

Is this the hardest song you've ever played on bass?

[@LindenPoirier]

Hmm, good question! Probably the hardest I've ever covered, alongside A Dark Horizontal and Ov Sacrament and Sincest, but not the hardest I've played. Those are coming soon.

[@charlesoliviersdufaux6943]

Do you have tablature for this one

[@LindenPoirier]

I used the official tab book, so out of respect for the band I can't share it. Highly recommend buying it though!

[@radMisc]

This is sick but what's the point of viewing this composition as 400 bpm? Sounds like 200 to me

[@LindenPoirier]

Good point! I'm just going off what the band and a lot of media say. I realize that they're somewhat interchangeable and that 200 bpm is more practical.

[@ApocaIypse666]

400bpm that's shit is so fast

[@LindenPoirier]

Fastest song yet! Wouldn't be surprised if half their next album is like this though lol

Amazing!
