Can anyone point out a good example of fuzz/distorted bass?

I was going to suggest Cook but in his Botch days. Best example I could think of is middle of 'C Thomas Howell...' when it's just him and that filthy tone.

Totally agree :)

I'm so glad I got see Botch before they were no more.

Hey man, listen to "Crawl" by the Kings of Leon, that has some Distorted/fuzz bass on the track.

My first thought was Brian Cook. Love his stuff in These Arms Are Snakes too.

Surprised no ones mentioned Death From Above 1979 yet.

Excellent tone, but I wouldn't really call that Fuzz, would you? More like overdrive IMO

EDIT: maybe not, I haven't listened to it in a while, i'll put it on when I get home

Go to about 2:20 in the video to hear when the bass riff comes in with his OCD/ Rat


Here's the album version:

I was very late to the Botch party, they'd been gone for 5 years before I got into them. Gutted as I don't think any metal band since has come close to what they achieved on 'Romans' and the last EP.

If anyone did like that Maybeshewill song (they've just released a new album "I Was Here For A Moment And Then I Was Gone - it's bloody brilliant so do have a listen) you will most likely enjoy this aswell, And So I Watch You From Afar:



Fuzz starts at 3:47, but please listen to the rest of the song, especially after the breakdown around 6mins in, it's beastly! Their new album is amazing throughout, and I do really, really mean that.
