I like System of a Down and listened to them a lot. Especially videos of live performances. I'd love to hear a solo bass track of an average System of a Down concert.

He does live backup vocals, directs most of their videos, was their original manager, organizes their staging and lighting for live shows, and wrote some of their songs including Toxicity and Sugar. Yeah sure is just a useless braided beard bassist.

Anyone in Smashing Pumpkins who wasn't Billy Corrigan

>>72577433
To take this question literally, the only answer is Sid Vicious. Dude couldn't play the bass, and didn't even actually play on their only real album.

False: Jimmy Chamberlin was integral for that band to function. He's the greatest drummer ever. Listen to Jellybelly off of Mellon Colie and tell me otherwise

Band is as the one whole everybody does his the job
