Geddy Lee Also played synth with his feet.

Yeah Darkside is also one of my favs. Lately Luana Dametto from Crypta is also impressing me a lot. She's not the most technical out there, but she uses her skills 100% to serve the music and never to show off. She is very groovy.

Geddy Lee is one of my favorite bass players of all time, but then I've always admired anyone that can play bass and sing at the same time.

Darkside has such an hypnotic and effortless playing style, it's so mesmerizing watching him play.

Also feel like Hellhammer deserves a mention just for how many of my favorite albums he’s been on

For technical proficiency I feel like Mike Portnoy may be the best out there, but Haake is much more innovative in his approach. My personal favorites are Baard Kolstad and the drummer of Birds in Row though, love their styles.

One of the best bass players are hands Les Claypool from Primus.
