Bass Cover #184: KISS - All American Man
covers · 24. February 2024
It's time to cover another “Alive II” studio track and this time it's “All American Man”. Maybe not a hit but still a good Paul's song with a fun bass part. Try it!

Bass Cover #183: FLOWING TEARS - Sistersum
covers · 22. January 2024
At the beginning of this century, Flowing Tears was one of my favorite German goth metal/dark rock bands. They had two things about them – very nice melodies and an outstanding original voice of Stefanie Duchêne (now in Behind Your Fear).

Bass Cover #182: MONO INC. - Boatman
covers · 15. January 2024
A perfect example of making a truly epic and touching song with only three notes! In my opinion, it's a great dark rock track which is actually a collaboration between the band MONO INC and the singer of VNV NATION Ronan Harris.

Bass Cover #181: ACE FREHLEY - Bronx Boy

Finally, caught the right mood for “Bronx Boy” by one and only Space Ace. Awesome song, and I think it's worth mentioning that Ace recorded the bass part for it himself. Enjoy!

Bass Cover #180: JOACHIM WITT - Bataillon D'Amour
covers · 29. December 2023
“Bataillon D'Amour” recorded by the band Silly and released in 1986 was a major hit in the DDR. Later, in 2000 one of my favorite German singers/musicians Joachim Witt recorded and released his own version of this song and... I love it! Actually, I heard his version long before I heard the original.

Bass Cover #179: KING DIAMOND - At The Graves
covers · 23. December 2023
The album “Conspiracy” is very special for me because it was the first King Diamond album I was waiting for as a fan. For some reason, I still remember when I bought this cassette (I was 13 and I didn't have money for a vinyl), put it into my walkman, and... yeah, it was true magic. I didn't understand the lyrics but I bought them (on a bunch of b/w photos) and spent weeks translating them with a dictionary :) Of course, my translation was awful but good enough to understand the main story....

Bass Cover #178: TIFFANY - I Think We're Alone Now
covers · 07. December 2023
I know this song has been played by literally anyone for ages... well, anyway, I'm in the mood for it right now. The song is cool, all '80s, with no real bass on the record so you can play it any way you want or stick to the electronic bass part as I did. The original part is simple and you can play it in your sleep :) Will choose something more challenging next time.

Bass Cover #177: W.A.S.P. - Sleeping (In The Fire)
covers · 31. October 2023
One of my all-time favorite W.A.S.P. songs... which is basically every song from the first album. Take any song from that LP and I'll say “It's my favorite one” :) Still, “Sleeping” is kind of special since it's such a beautiful and unusual power ballad and I even have a friend who chose it for her first wedding dance with her husband a few years ago (hi there, Xeniya!)

Bass Cover #176: THE RUNAWAYS - Queens Of Noise
covers · 29. October 2023
I've been a fan of Lita Ford and Joan Jett since I was a child and when I discovered The Runaways I was freaking speechless. Damn, those girls knew how to rock'n'roll! I know, I know, their playing was not perfect, the albums were produced not very well, and so on but I seriously think The Runaways was the most underrated rock band in classic rock history. Their first two albums are just packed with amazing songs and I don't care if someone thinks otherwise (I'm talking about you, “Rolling...

Bass Cover #175: THEATRE OF TRAGEDY - Lorelei
covers · 18. October 2023
It's time for some classic goth metal stuff, “Lorelei” by one and only Theatre of Tragedy whose untimely death I will mourn for eternity. This band was so great, even when they went a far more electronic path. Well, anyway, here's my take on one of their most beautiful songs. I added a couple of licks here and there, so it's not a 100% original part in this video. Just wanted to make it slightly more “busy” :) Enjoy.
