In either 2000 or ‘01, I loaned James my sunburst MusicMan bass which he tried and really liked. He took it away to a Biffy practice or gig and then came back a few days later and told me the band’s management couldn’t sanction the purchase so he carried on playing his black Fender P bass.
Then a number of years later he gets his own Fender Squier signature model and is playing stadiums while I’m still playing a MusicMan bass doing covers in pubs.
one of the best songs off opposites for sure, i'd love to hear the eradicate the doubt bass part
upvote this!
It was the immediate stand out for me
3:10 that hit hard for every bassist out there
Thing I love most about biffy is the fact there In it for the music. Everytime I listen to the guys talk about music you can feel the passion and enjoyment they get out of it.
Finally! Awesome to see him explain more about the gear he's using. One of my favourite songs and definitely inspirational bassist!
I love that you guys are posting stuff like this! This one is probably my all time favorite song of yours as the lyrics on the chorus really connected with me in a time where i needed it. Whenever i have a really though time i try to plant my feet on the ground and remember that life keeps going on. Thank you!
One of my favourite Biffy songs! What an awesome bass part!
You rock James, you’re half of an extremely underrated rhythm section, MON THE BIFF!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
I’ve always loved how you wrote those sorta off-beat grooves.
I love this song, very powerful !! What a rythm and this session is very pleasant 👍👍
That bass tone is gnarly. Love it!
Loved it - thank you, James!
Brilliant as always James ❤️
Love you guys, thank you for doing things like this
Love this!!
Some tune! Nice seeing the bass side, as a bass player myself, always love your riff style James!
This video is so beautiful! Congratz!
Thanks for the video, James 💙
It is so great that you actually play your signature Squier and love it!
Thank you so much for showing your pedal and amp! Awesome playing too. One of my favourite songs from Opposites.
Man, love this song!
James your signature Squire is beautiful. I love the colour and matched head stock + Jazz Bass' are one of the best looking bass' if not the best!
Who could not love James, seriously
Oh my goooood...you are awesome 💘
Love you James x
Freaking love you dudes, time to go play through all of Opposites and Similarities on bass now!
Nice one james, that was fun, hope you guys have some fantastic shows soon, best wishes.
I just love James
Really bummed that I never had the chance to buy one of these basses new. James is a massive inspiration on my playing and therefore my tastes are very similar
You guys rock
Sounds sick!
Love the Aussie flag in the background!! Can't wait for you guys to come back so I can catch you for a 3rd time ❤️ much love from the Gold Coast, Australia
Brilliant James
Bad ass BASS, James!
Absolute class m8. MON THE BIFF
Bloons!! Nice work
such a banger
What a lovely lad.
that was fun!
V informative, v fun, thank you v much
Cracking stuff showing the young team where to go
뭐야 하나도 못 알아 듣겠는데 하여간 엄청 자세하고 친절해!!! 존잘 레드헤어 최고 진짜 나도 베이스 배우고 싶다. 노래 전체로 들을 때 못 느꼈던 것들이 들리네. 이렇게 다이나믹 했구나 최고야 정말 ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
Wooo!
Oh. The equipment looks pretty good. Might gonna buy some of it.
Ciao Jimbo, thanks for your smile :)
James how many flags have you got at the back there?! 😂
Love this song anyway
Awesome
That's what makes Biffy special: to stay normal people. Thank you!
This was so awesome to watch. Love it when band members break down songs or do playthroughs. James has this cool, calm friendly vibe. Thanks for doing this James!!!
CIAAAOOO
Lovely thing to hold on to - that's what she said 👊
Я как будто смотрю кавер 2007 года с трясущейся камерой и музыкой через колонки😄 По-любому зачет и лайк👍👍👍
That T in the Park concert was legendary
Good sound. And the room shakes 😆
Nice, love Sounds like Balloons! Hope you're still planning on making more? These vids are always cool! Stay safe!
When regular gear sounds very very good it must be the player.
Ciaooo
Wow Nice Sound :)
Hello hello he is a killie boy haha good video my man 👍🏻
James Fucking Johnston , The man, The Legend. Thank you. MON THE BIFF
What overdrive were you using in the chorus
Hello James! Big Fan from Brazil! Do you use stock pickups? Great sound! Cheers!
What distortion/fuzz do you use?
Peavey TKO 75 was also my first amp and I had to sell it along with other various bits of gear so I could buy a better bass I wish I could of kept it
I'd forgot all about that amp. Not seen it in over 20 years.
excellent Fender Squier model
Is his bass tuned to D flat?
😘🏴
Hola, Usas Squier!!! Pensé que era un Fender, eso significa que es un buen bajo 💪🏻👍🏻🤘🏼
Love his voice, can imagine him reading a Cbeebies bed time story 😂
Pretty humble gear knowing what Simon uses and his Gigrig setup. #thatpedalshow
Great cover. A few bits wrong, check out the official Biffy Tab to see how they play it. Keep it up though 👍🏻👍🏻
you're aware he PLAYS in Biffy, and WROTE it? 👍
No he didn’t, Biffy McHaggis wrote it. Great bassist.
@@FalloutHero96 There's no doubt McHaggis is the bassist Scottish export since Bell's whiskey. What a player and writer.
@@FalloutHero96 have you ever heard a joke before
Lol 🤪
James, what's the tunning for this song?
Taking a shot in the dark it sounds like drop D.
It's Drop C#
Is the title a nod to Anderton’s TV Sounds Like with Matt and Rabea?
No, Sounds Like Balloons is the title of the song.
Now that is a nice credo for bass players: „stay in the pocket“
Loved it
looks like drop D
It's Drop C#

It's Drop C#
Tight as fuck
Cool as fuck
He’s a trumpet!
THE JOKE'S ON US!!!
I don’t own a bass and I don’t know how to play it but I’m watching this video
Still upset that bass was discontinued
Looked like the camera was shaking cos of too much bass!!
"sounds like bloons"
He can't help but sing along, even when doing a yt tutorial.
cant beat an old peavey amp
7th view
Пердящий бас
Wow the camera can't handle the bass
Nice guys.....it’s funny when bands go from your little secret to massive headline acts.....biffy is one of those and it always makes me stop following bands like that. Glitter and trauma was the high point musically and from that special point of view.
You should try to not let a band blowing up make you stop following them. I still remember buying Infinity Land the day it released, bittersweet because I assumed it would be their last album. I thought that bands like this wouldn’t have enough appeal to make it big. Couldn’t be happier I was wrong. It’s great to see they’ve still got love for the music and you can see it here with Jim. Just a shame we’ll never see them at a small venue again!
Terrible choro 🤯
Biffy sold out after the Vertigo album.
Like an underclocked high powered processor. Capable of much more but rather than going full out stays super cool and consistent 😍
