So Nobody Loves the Bassist, eh? Think again. That dude in the spotlight, the one everyone's cheering for, the famous face everybody remembers ... is it me, or is that axe they're wielding suspiciously oversized? VINDICATION! The Lead Bassist takes up an instrument that screams "anonymous role-player," and somehow rides it to fame. For one reason or another, they're better-known than the band's lead guitarist, or even the lead singer. But what could cause such a perversion of the natural order? There are four fundamental factors that can give birth to a Lead Bassist: The Virtuoso: This bassist is so famously skilled, with their fingers racing over the whole instrument and driving the ensemble with melodic, expressive lines, to the point that they overshadow the band's other musicians—who may be excellent in their own right. Lead bassists may add chime-like harmonics, play melody lines, chords, and do two-handed tapping. Some would even go as far as do improvised soloing. The Singer: This musician is mainly famous for being a lead vocalist, or part of a Vocal Tag Team. The fact that they play a bass may be secondary, and may even go unnoticed by casual fans, even though they are a strong player. The Band Frontman: This bass player is well known for non-musical reasons, such as: Being a founder or guiding creative spirit of the band. Engaging in notorious behavior, such as drunken misadventures or a newsworthy love life. Being Mr. or Ms. Fanservice Having a successful career in acting or another field outside of music. Having a successful career when leaving the band. Dying tragically ... or at least memorably. Being a well-respected figure in a scene with numerous non-musical contributions. Drawing most of the bands' album cover art. Co-producing many of the band's albums. The Genre Lead: Rather than rock or popular music, this bassist plays jazz, funk, African folk music, etc., genres in which the bass cuts a larger figure—sometimes even a central one. Bassists may qualify under more than one of these tropes: Paul McCartney, for example, manages to flawlessly embody the first three types. This is not a list of "Good Bassists" or "Bassists I Like." This page is for bass players who, for one reason or another, garner a distinctly larger share of public notice than more traditional band "frontpeople" such as the singer or lead guitarist. If the bassist is the least-known member of the band, they don't belong here, however well-regarded they are (future musicologists will dub this the "Entwistle-Jones barrier"). Contrast Nobody Loves the Bassist. See also Female Rockers Play Bass (The Singer combines this with Male Band, Female Singer). A Sister Trope to Lead Drummer and Lead Singer Plays Lead Guitar. Does not refer to a bassist made out of lead. |

Buried Stars features Do-yoon Han as the bassist who is by far the most well-regarded member of the band Masquerade. There's debate in-universe over whether he's a Virtuoso or a Band Frontman. An interview confirms that the reality TV show producer "discovered Do-yoon among his other bandmates" primarily because of his striking appearance. He's also the protagonist of the VN itself. | |

Adam Biggs of Rivers of Nihil has got a huge amount of technical ability, though the years have made him less hell-bent on showcasing it at every opportunity, serves as the second vocalist, contrasting Jake Dieffenbach's mid-ranged bellow with higher rasps and the occasional guttural lows, writes the vast majority of the lyrics and shares primary songwriting duties with Brody Uttley, his basslines factor heavily into their established style and seldom do exactly what the guitar does, often playing lead lines or creating a melodic backdrop instead of necessarily playing rhythm all the time. | |

Geddy Lee, lead vocalist, bassist, and keyboardist of Rush, combines multiple types. On top of his multiple roles in the band including frontman, he's also considered one of the greatest bassists of all time (skilled enough to overshadow guitarist Alex Lifeson, but not drummer Neil Peart, who is even more often considered one of the best drummers of all time), and has great stage presence during concerts. Progressive Rock is also a genre where bass is often emphasized, so many of their basslines are as much of a lead instrument as the guitar (check out "Digital Man" and "Malignant Narcissism" for examples of this). | |

Nick Schendzielos of Cephalic Carnage, Job for a Cowboy, and Havok hits all four on the head, being a renowned for his incredible technical skill and creative playing (he does secondary vocals in Cephalic Carnage and backing live vocals in Havok), and his face is well-known in the bass world between his YouTube channel and frequent NAMM appearances, plus he's become a secondary face for both Job for a Cowboy and Havok due in no small part to his oddball sense of humor and amusing interviews. He also qualifies as a Genre Lead — his basslines became a very major and integral part of Job for a Cowboy's sound circa Sun Eater. | |

Charles Mingus, Jazz double bassist, was a highly influential musician, composer and bandleader. He became one of the most iconic bandleaders of the 1950's and 1960's alongside the likes of Miles Davis, John Coltrane and Charlie Parker, as well as one of the most ambitious composers. He's the first, and so far only, jazz musician to have his entire (gigantic) catalog acquired by the Library of Congress. | |

Pär Sundström of Sabaton is the secondary front man alongside lead vocalist Joakim Brodén. In addition to co-writing the songs with Joakim and having about as much interview time, Pär has regularly sung backing vocals since the 2012 lineup change (he and Joakim are the only founding members remaining). He's also one of the band's managers. | |

Taiji Sawada was famously virtuosic during his stints with X Japan, Loudness, The Killing Red Addiction, and other projects, as well as being one of four faces of the band for X Japan, pioneering Loudness's first foray into Thrash Metal, and for some surprising lyrical depth in solo work. He was equally, and sadly, famous for his substance abuse, recurring mental problems, and suspicious death. | |

After being fired from the band in 1998 with no official replacement, he became a Band Frontman as one-half of Big & Rich (although he no longer plays bass), along with a large list of songwriting and production credits for other artists. | |

Emma Anzai of Sick Puppies is just as well known as lead singer/guitarist Shim Moore. Due to their nature as a 3 piece band, Anzai's bass has a lot of room to shine, and each album sees her stepping up to the mic more and more often from simple backing vocals, to vocal tag team and outright taking the lead here and there. On top of that, she's also the sole founding member left in the band after Moore's departure. She's also considered very attractive. | |

Chris Barker AKA Chris No. 2 is the bassist of Anti-Flag , and is also in a Vocal Tag Team with guitarist Justin Sane. They have different singing styles, with Barker's vocals being harsh and raspy versus Sane's more standard melodic style; therefore, Barker is the lead vocalist on many of the band's more aggressive songs. He is also the most vocal on stage, yelling political slogans and hyping up the crowd at almost all times. | |

At the time, Ronnie Lane was the best-known member of both the Small Faces and the Faces, though Steve Marriott and Rod Stewart would later eclipse him in fame. Lane was also a frequent songwriter for both groups. | |

The virtuosic bass skills of Atheist's Roger Patterson were responsible for a good bit of the band's early buzz). Later, his tragic death contributed to his fame in Technical Death Metal circles. | |

Sgt. Floyd Pepper of the Electric Mayhem in The Muppets is a Band Frontman. Although Dr. Teeth leads the band, Floyd is easily the most recognizable member after Animal, overshadowing Dr. Teeth, and the one who talks the most to Kermit. He also often sings lead vocals whenever the band is shown performing. | |

Derek Boyer of Suffocation is notorious for his bizarre antics, both onstage and off, while his enormous bass sound, distinctive tone, and considerable technical prowess factor heavily into Suffocation's current sound and live reputation. | |
