The slap technique gives the song such a great tone. Outstanding.

[@benjaminsandeen9241]

You got another view from me because I thought this was a video from Cannibal Corpse's bassist (Alex Webster), but I'm not mad! Fantastic playing!

[@Mr_Eyeholes]

I recently learned you make your own basses as well. Much respect, your skill in both playing and building are incredible 👍

[@deadinside7600]

You are the literal reason i got into playing fretless bass. So happy to see this posted

[@fddd8886]

You are the best. I'm really excited that you got the spot in Obscura. The Wait album is excellent as well!

[@asafabraham]

you and Jeroen are the only two people in history to successfully play the first bar of this song. Wish you could've played Vancouver this year.

[@LindenPoirier]

Nicely done! I've thought about covering this at various times but always come across super impressive renditions like this and lose my steam haha

[@ij_misir1965]

go for it dude!

[@liammeck1379]

He literally plays with them live so don’t feel too bad lol

[@TongucGokalp]

Süper

[@belmontiesteak1096]

Superb! Always get pumped up when I get notified of a new playthrough. I totally vote for playthrough of Spiral Architect's "Excessit" or "Cloud Constructor".

[@silentjav]

Will always love hearing folks mention Spiral Architect 🔥

[@taylorbrown7791]

jesus dude, killer technique, i was holding my bass while i watched and saw your form for double thumb(p)ing? and tried the way you support your thumb with your extra fingers and nailed it! been trying for 8 years to understand exactly how to do it but i guess it takes the right application. thank you.

[@aifrmedia]

your thumb upstroke is freaking wicked man.

[@brandonbisson]

i thought your name was Alex Webster for a second

[@chadwickid1]

One of my favorite bass lines! You nail it so well. Your technique is awe inspiring!

[@MarioKL]

Very, very interesting technique, great sound and an excellent performance!

[@kevinberstler]

Great job here and in Denver a few weeks ago.

[@TriumphAusStahl]

Amazing, as always, Alex!

[@Tyler-zs3ry]

Very excited to see you play with Obscura next week!

[@SelmiAzhar]

i was just revisiting the first one done by cannibalistic zombie as i was gonna upload one too. love your interpretation!

[@Bootstrappin]

Damn son! Groovy tunes, slick playing.

[@zar3bski894]

You have a very interesting right hand technique! Quite an effective way to reach octaves

[@xNachtmahRx]

Guess all Alex Webs are good at bass, now I know why I am not. Great playthrough! Even your sound is great...and I usually hate fretless farts

[@wgalletto]

Man, you make this one sound so easy! Nicely done!

[@Necro-slaughter]

This is Eric (necroslaughter) awsome technique and badass playthrough ......awsome brother

[@alexmac-adoomarengo5569]

I play it in a very different way, :0. I think this song has some flexibility. Nice bass!

[@bozhedar]

Masterpiece

[@butttoaste]

Incredible!!

[@davidmurphy9586]

The level of musicianship across all instruments in 2023 is scary. Fantastic and amazing, but scary. Some bands are on a totally different plane.

[@revulsion11]

Amazing cover Alex.

[@KontraBoss]

Sehr coole Daumen-Technik!!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@mglaser6811]

Der Kerle hätts druff...😇💪👍👍👍

[@renatoarthuraraujodejesus620]

Lindo!!!!

[@guigiacobbo]

Ok, I´m done with Bass after this. Absurd.

[@northnick3317]

So fucking good lml

[@jason5276]

🤟💕

[@TheMagicOfDakota]

Fucking INCREDIBLE ❤❤❤

[@sunacchitogen]

Amazing Cover! Another proof that you are the perfect live replacement for Jeroen. Do you use any effects or is it just the fretless?

[@AlexWeberBass]

Thanks! I’m also using a chorus, very lightly, in my signal chain

[@marcelohellbass6022]

🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@imthemetalguy1]

How often do people confuse you with Alex WEBSTER?

[@rcjd7834]

Dang that right hand technique is sick. Amazing tone too, who made that bass? It looks awesome, and I'd love a fretless 6 someday. I'm normally a 6 player and just got my first fretless a week ago (5 string jazz), already looking for another lol.

[@drunkcat17]

Just in case he never answers, as far as I know, he made it himself

[@AlexWeberBass]

Thanks man! Yes this was a bass I built myself. Finished it in late 2021 right before I started playing with Obscura

[@thecoldlight]

Not the exact way it was played, but this sounds awesome. Such a cool interpretation. 🤘🏾

[@AlexWeberBass]

Actually, save from the use of double thumping, this is almost exactly what Jeroen played melodically. I transcribed this directly from his isolated stems and I didn’t change anything in this like I did with some of my other videos. Most of the tabs I had previously found were wrong and had the bass playing things that the guitars were actually doing

[@JPR17]

I read Alex Webster 😂😂😂 but it's Alex Weber. Who the hell is Alex Weber?

[@blade8147]

Need this bass sound for an album, the latest live obscura one was already great :D Also what bass is this?

[@AlexWeberBass]

Hopefully it'll be on the next Obscura record! And It's a bass I build myself

[@LeandroOlavarria]

Is he using a chorus effect?

[@j.pabloquinche3283]

It seems that yes

[@AlexWeberBass]

Yes I am. I’ve been using the new reissue of the TC Electronic SCF

[@fVNzO]

the beard bobbing reminiscent of a wise mage reciting eons of scrolls.

[@showaibahmed3669]

What's that plucking technique called? Using thumb and fingers all together..

[@AlexWeberBass]

I haven't really given it a name yet. It's sort of a combination of a lot of other player's techniques that I've put together in my own sort of way

[@devendasmusic]

This scares me

[@user-ii6ue1pk4u]

Ахуеть!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤

[@lovepeoplehu9883]

Whoever is your girlfriend must be a very happy woman. That hands of yours. Especially your fingers.
