    I remember when I got that album in the early 90s. Steve's playing and clarity of tone were the greatest thing in the world of bass that I had ever known. I actually got to have pizza with him and the rest of the guys in Testament at the time (except for Lombardo) late after their show in 1999. They came in to the place that my old band was eating, struck a conversation, pulled a table next to us and hung out from about 11 p.m. to 2 a.m. Steve sat right next to me. I was 20 at the time and he treated me like I was an equal peer to him, discussing playing, tone and influences.

    I bought Individual Thought Patterns close to when it was released, I think in 1993 or 1994. Being a teenage metalhead and a guitarist/keyboardist wannabe I gravitated towards the unusual patterns of musical behaviour the album offers (individual thought patterns?). Wonderful to see the man himself play this.

    Was a kid when I discovered Death, and I was always frusrtrated over how low and weak bass was in so many metal records, Steve cured that for me. Great upload, cheers from Morocco.

    People don't realise or appreciate how similar his playing is to Les Claypool's, but of course the context for DiGiorgio is a lot more technical material. Nevertheless, they both hit those tasty chords and use slides to perfection to accent just where needed. I guess the bigger asset to both is how they use their creativity. There are a lot of tapping and whatever metal bassists, but none come close to Steve, in my view he's the at the very top, even far beyond metal.

      The BTB bass literally has dots for every fret position and lines if you look close. Its not impossible. It just takes 40 years of practice like Steve has.

    Ok, this is a dream, I'll wake up soon and be in a really good mood. I just bought the remasters because the bass is different in the mix. But this is right in your face. This song together with Trapped in a Corner are some of my personal favorites in Death's amazing repertoire. Thanks Steve & Darkglass.
