And remember you have to play this pattern for 5-7 minutes straight.

"For even more spice you can just play like Peter Hook from Joy Division playing Disorder"

[zugzugthezuggernaut]

Dude just spilled the beans on the secret for the whole genre - everything else is spice in the mix. Insane!

Hooky is getting closer to 70 (unbelievable) and he's still relevant with his sound and technique. And he was never in the background in New Order. Look how boring they are without him.

Barry Adamson (Magazine) never gets enough love. The bass lines to Song from Under the Floorboards and The Light Pours Out of Me are personal highlights

[Fil_Mo]

not sure if it counts (maybe modern post-post-punk?) but Carlos D from the OG Interpol era was a true badass

[virtualobject]

My new favourite post Punk bassist? Mr D Doom

[cronaaukerman]

This is one of the most effective YouTube tutorials I have ever seen

[rapha]

this is absolutely a bassline on some random obscure band's song on one of their practically unknown albums or eps that I'm not a particularly big fan of but still like to death regardless; love the video

[emaN_sdrawkcaB]

The bass on I love you by Fontaines dc is just heavenly post punk bass

[anttam]

I’m not a musician, but god, do I love post-punk bass. It sounds so damn good.

[miniyodadude]

This is just a good lesson in making your bass lines more interesting. Next step is harmonic influence (not a real term to my knowledge, just the idea that you can emphasize different degrees of the chord as the bassist and influence the sound of the chord)

[wagnerribeiro]

Simon Gallup, Peter Hook, and Andy Rourke are the Holy Trinity to my taste. But there are other guys that make me being in love with post-punk style: Mark Burgess (The Chameleons), Thierry Sobézyk (Asylum Party), Helen Carter (Do Ré Mi), Shmoo Ritchie (The Organ), João Pavanelli (Finis Africae), Frank van den Nieuwenhof (World According To / W.A.T.), and Desmond Doom :)
Cheers!

Post-punk bassist I really like who doesn't get mentioned much is Will Heggie, Cocteau Twins first bassist. I love the basslines on Garlands, and he also did some great work with his next band, Lowlife

1. Peter Hook
2. Simon Gallup
3. Andy Rourke
4. David J. Haskins
5. Tina Weymouth

[ShikiKiryu]

Gallup, Severin and David J, also Mark Burgess for me personally.

[andrewpearson]

Haven’t seen Jah Wobble in the first few comments, so here’s some love for “Metal Box”

[skylarjon]

Also an easy way to make a cheap and easy post-punk bass line is to never pluck the string at the same time as snare hits. Instant groove

[TompkinsAnimation]

Oh dang these are the same settings I used for the bass and amp unknowingly before watching this 💀💀💀

[billybonk]

Graham Bailey from The Sound is an underrated bassist.
