Beyond Creation is one of those bands where every member just blows me away with their musicianship.
one of those bands who are technically on the level of dream theater
Death Metal Rush.
BrianLikesMetal666 Well it is important to mention, that you just cannot afford playing this in every band or a metal style. Good thing about technical death metal is that everyone might express himself.
When you seek Mudvayne, it is a band that fits Ryan Martinie's inspiring percussive bass playing style. But he couldn't play this in metalcore bands for example, not even 75% of the technical shit he did in Mudvayne's L.D. 50.
Christopher Schneider does 10% of his skills in Rammstein. It just fits the band.
So what am I trying to say, you can only barely guess how is someone good, because not everyone can do ,,lead" stuff. Anyway, It is shame that only harsh vocals fit tech death metal. I'm not able to share it with other people... music is brilliant, but they can't get over the vocals. And to be honest, I'm not into those vocals too, but I can get over it as long as there is an audible bass :D
Ijen Ayen your very right about different bands only pertaining to a certain area of a musicians skill, but I wanted to add even if a person is using 10% of the skill they posses(and could hypothetical ly wipe the floor if they used the other 90%), you'd still be able to tell they posses that amount of musicianship by how/what they are playing within that 10%.
Death Metal I think they are more interesting than Dream Theater on the technical side of thing. Fretless bass, tapping, every instrument sing ... In Dream Theater, in some albums the bass is a boring square while Jordan and John rip like there is no tomorrow and then everyone become almost radio friendly so James can sing ...
Dominic is basically introducing Lead Bass to death metal here, love how the song is much more centered on his melody and doesn't gets put in the backburner buried in the mix like most other bass players, kudos indeed.
He just left the band :(
Sad news indeed :/ But doesn't takes away the records he done already though
That's because he looks up to one of all time best jazz bassist Jaco Pastorius. He talks about how many bassist don't do melodies. I've been listening to a lot jazz man so I can get influence hopefully turn out something like Forest haha.
Dominic is a beast of a bassist, but to say that he introduced lead bass to death metal is to ignore the work of others that preceded him, like Steve Digiorgio.
Digiorgio is a superb player don't get me wrong. But he rarely gets to have the spotlight to himself, he gets to play a bit of a lead on some songs but never the entire band following his melodies which is what I meant.
Other than that I was thinking of Sean Malone as well but his involvement in Cynic is not as prominent (Cynic is all about Masvidal's leads) and Gordian Knot is prog.
Technical death metal that isn't just technical for technicalities' sake! Such soul put into the sound. Simply phenomenal.
Nice comment. But I don't like your profile picture. Mwahahaha... Forget...Just kidding
@mutilatedMetalhead fucking really though. Thw soul in this is just fluid
Can't understand people who likes braindrill and such... Yeah cool, you play 1 terabyte of notes in one nanosecond... So what? It sounds like shit. But what makes BC is... Just pure art.
Why Do u PEOPLE Associate Music with DEATH??
well, depends on the band actually
I have never heard a more interesting bass player. Truly one of the greatest.
bmhyakiri try Steve Digiorgio (Sadus, Vision of Misery from 1992) ...the same from Death, Individual Thoughs Pattern
Steve's a classic but I'm sorry he couldn't play this they have way different styles-hell dominic is influenced by digeorgio too but in my opinion hes taking the bass to another bar here it's actually not fair to try judging either as they both fkn shred it's just different techniques but this track is insane
@@nmac3718 this. Same goes for Schuldiner. A classic, a master from many took influence. But can't compared with, for example, Luc Lemay. The level of composition and musical level overall Luc has, its way beyond the skills of Chuck
@@FockeWulfFW200 yeppers totally agree I'm friends with luc I knew steve Macdonald the drummer who killed himself yrs ago I still have the old stuff on cassette lol erosion of sanity

Good luck for the new bassist
They just announced that they got a new guy last night, he's got big shoes to fill :o
Yes I saw that, the guy from Brought By Pain!
MattyPS Brought by pain have/had two members from beyond creation so it makes sense.
He's actually doing a pretty good job at filling in Forest's shoes. I can't wait to hear his input on the next album.
Kristijan Fištrek well, what do you think of the new single they just released?
He left the band. I will go cry now
I like Hugo more 😃
Dominic applies his love of jazz into his playing. I think he has one of the most original styles in modern metal; it reeks of taste and is very refreshing.
I've listened to this song literally a hundred of times. Maybe one of the best Songs ever created
me too
The best bass metal player of the world
The bass in this band is better than the bass in most metal bands. Very impressive when a bass does half the leads.
There's so much emotion in this bass-playing, it really inspired me to play bass in a death metal band! I definitely connected more with his lines than the new bassist.
shouldnt the bass be a little louder in a playthrough mix?
Agree
It's perfect if you actually have a good audio source.
Deathz0r94 I have a 200 $ headset and I still think the bass should have been a bit more loud.... just like in his previous bass playthrough of omnipresent perception
And the camera should also focus more on his hands. It changes the angle way to much and makes it very hard to follow and play it by yourself.
Stfu
La Pointe inspired me to play fretless bass. I started playing fretless because of him and because of Thesseling from Obscura. if Forest gonna ever read this comment I wanna say THANK YOU to you!
Finally I learnt this song on Bass :D (it's on my profile) it took a while but it's one of my fav songs ever and i adore playing it. Thank u for creating such a masterpiece !!!!!!
Whatever band he joins, they would have found one of the rarest gem musicians.
So beautiful, the music, the bass itself, the instrument... This is just the best I've ever heard out of every genre...
Beyond Creation gives my positive chills on every track, everything just fits so well and amazingly constructed
My goodness this is some tasteful metal. Over the years I've been leaning towards jazz and classical just to find some phrasing that interest but this.. this is good. This is real good!
this is amung the greats of bassists right here. a dedicate
Cliff Burton reincarnation perhaps?
Louis Johnson is his Uncle then his slaps are unrivaled by even claypool himself
mental patient peeped your bass videos on your profile your skill levels surpass even that of the great Dom himself
Breath-takingly fantastic. Beyond Creation blows me away and this guy... Incredible.
foda o baixo dessa música, venerarei SEMPRE 💙
2:31 The first time i ever heard this song... i didn't expect those drums.
Who the fuck dislike this ?
This guy is a bassgod
My god... You are are a true inspiration dominic! Your playing sound like heaven, you got so much melody and "classical music parts" like mozart and other ones... Absolutely the best bass player on earth ❤ greetings🙏
The song is so strong, it has a lot of emotion, really beautiful!
This is the single most beautiful composition I have ever heard
Most accurate video description ever. And as a side-note, FUUUUUUUUUUCK YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
This is just the most beautiful thing I watched/listened in a long time. The day I will reach that level of technique is still a dream to my eyes, and I'm not event talking about the ability to create basslines like that.
Amazing song , amazing performance !
Abosolutly mindblowing
Masterpiece indeed
Dominic show me something i search many years... the next step in music expression and feeling, is the harmony in the chaos... i learn from him something have no name and i see that guy like my brother...
I will never forget meeting and talking with Forest in Edmonton last year at the Harvesting Hell Fest. Very down to earth guy, and very knowledgeable.
Oh hey, I was there as well!:) The whole band are a bunch of really killer dudes.
Oh sick man! That weekend was the greatest. The best line-up of Tech Death ever!
Je suis Trop fans de votre musique!j'espere vous voir un jour dans un live
I could sit and watch this dude for hours.
Bravissimo!
What woods are in that bass? it looks like from other videos with color that it's a quilted bubinga like top wood but i wanna know more!
Discovered greatness...
Plus beau solo de bass ever !!!
Dude....saw them back in 2019 w/obscura, infei, ne oblivscaris, and a few others. Was a fantastic show. Got to talk with the drumer from BC....absolutely killer show (obscura singer was not at gig so all other bands sat in for them for vox). Was a highlight for me since Ne Obli was there...
Dude, u got some sick chops!
Sad this guy left but I've heard nothing but good things about the new guy! Excited to see what he brings to the band.
everything I've seen forest play live or on video has wowed me the fkn guy has a sick style and approach to music we had Steve digeorgio with death etc now forest in modern metal 2 of the fretless kings
The best version ever!!!
Goddamnit. It’s so fucking heavy.
I`ll miss U Dom ... good luck in your bands and projects!!
Impressive play 😨 ... and excellent song 🙂👌
Dominic, You are the best!!
4:09 onwards, simply amazing
Go First Fragment?
I love every single song of this guys and y love Dominic's technique
definitely one of the best
outstanding!
Un des meilleures bassist a mon avis..ce gars la a un talent alucinant jme tannerer jamais de le regarder jouer
I'm a drummer,but i could listen to this bass line all day id like to hear it without anything else in the mix- ive met dominic with augury and we(kronosfear) opened for quo vadis before the guys a fkn machine and very reserved.Total pro
These line basses is a delightfull!!!
rediculously skilled professional and quite a nice person 3 reasons he's in demand forest you never cease to amaze with what you bring to the table brother
legendary
Just beautiful enough said
This dude has me playing around on a fretless bass and loving it.
Such an awesome bass tone.
Best part starts from 4:22, the "mwah" of the fretless love it
Entertaining watch, thanks for the upload.
Happy 40th birthday Dom!
he makes it look so effortless... OMG, giant fan
Epic ! Merci pour tout ce que tu a fait pour Beyond Creation, tu reste une grande source d'inspiration pour moi et pour beaucoup malgré ton départ !
The description is spot on! \m/
Can't believe he left the band :( Best of luck with your next project, Dominic.
Marvelous sound!!!
Amazing playing as always
Finally! I was waiting to see somone who plays this song on bass... But wasn't expecting to see Lapointe himself doing it :D
I could watch this dude play bass for hours. So freakin awesome. I think more tecdeath bands should use frettless bass.
That is amazing
Upon first hearing these guys the only bass that comes close to this is the amazing Quo Vadis. If you guys haven't heard that fretless phenom I highly suggest you do! Damn this is incredible stuff
its the same guy in beyond creation and quo vadis
+brett barreras lol
I wish i had seen Beyond Creation with Dominic as a bassist!! =)
Is that fretless?
If it sound like wet fart, fretless it is!
el mejor bajista que escuche, una tormenta de tecnicas
What I love about the bass tone is that it has a lot of heavyness and presence without having clank or distortion. This is actually realy hard to have a massive basse without clank in metal
this is simply a masterpiece. OMG
OMG! Did I get any on me? LOL! Pretty strong there, brother.
Guh, I have tears. This is food for the soul..
Totally awesome.
Fretless bass is essential for tech death. In my humble opinion.
great music
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Not gonna lie the fretless bass tone works so well with the band, and cuts through quite well.
Nice work
EPIC....
Fretless 5 will definitely be my next bass when time right.
Excellent musicianship and a great song, sadly a rare combo.
long live to beyond creation!! lml
Is it sad that I don't want to see these guys without Dominic? Lol they new guys good I'm sure, but Dominic's composition, in my opinion, is what made the band so good right off the bat. Plus he's one of the few that keep up with Linus from obscura when it comes to prog/techdeath. It'll be interesting to hear new material too
Calvin Acuff I personally prefer the original bassist from Obscura.
Man I agree 110% , the talent that Linus has brought in is unquestionable, much respect to the man. However Jereon Paul Thesseling blows my mind and touches the soul everytime
jeroen is not the original bassist from obscura, he is the 3rd bassist they had and he only played on 2 albums
Does anyone know what type of elixir strings those are?
Thanks for visit my city Guadalajara México..🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
I'd been hoping you'd do this one.
The truly amazing thing here is the sinergy between pure brutality ans pure melody
Don't leave xc this guy has literally been my inspiration
Best bass player on RUclips !
Magnifico
Goosebumps.
Mr. Lapointe is a god among men in the realm of bassists, and what makes him more impressive is the fretless bass he uses. His replacement Hugo is equally talented but his showmanship has required improvement as they tour, and on the most recent video theatrical delirium he really shows that he can keep up with the insane pace Forest set when he wrote the bass track of this album, but he still uses a bass with frets, removing just a bit of what makes original Forest playthroughs like this so mind-blowing..
Hugo has used a fretless bass since he joined bc. Check out the video for Inversion. He uses a lined fretless from kiesel
