Shit, you're both right. Never listen to me. I forgot about it in the context of the song.

I was gonna say Bone too, but I think I read Kim is playing a guitar. That's a great part though.

hey alex · 04.03.2006, 11:28 PM

yea, it's on my list of things to learn

CHOUT · 04.04.2006, 02:28 AM

Androgynous Mind is pretty fucked up and cool. Kim is playing high notes that almost sound random, then hits a few lower notes with distortion on then back to the higher notes.

androgynous mind (love the "start/stop" bass line)

I wouldn't be surprised. Kim played drums for a few songs I think

AllHandsOnTheBigOne · 04.04.2006, 12:35 PM

I really like the part where the bass kicks in on "Bull in the Heather". But usually the bass is just about the last thing I'm concentrating on when listening to the yoof. Well, other than the lyrics.

I found this old thread and wanted to ressurect it. Interesting to note that when I first started listening to SY, one of my fav songs was Wish Fulfillment, because of what I thought was the bass line. Then I heard that Kim was playing guitar. So, is that bass line guitar or is someone else playing it? Whoever it is, it's my all time fav. So random and hitting every note but the root notes, but it sounds soooo good.
Stones, Rain on Tin, Dirty Boots, Teenage Riot are some of my other fav's to play on bass. I love the way Kim slides up to notes, kind of like the Sugar Cane line.

Shoot, Titanium Expose, the end of Expressway, the list goes on.

The bass on Dude Ranch Nurse is really melodic.Not sure if it's Jim or Kim.
