I need a whole album of prog metal from you Charles! This is absolutely top notch!

[dotancohen]

IF anybody else had ever mentioned such a Jason Newstead quote I'd just block the idiot. Loved it - you made my day.

Still haven't got to the solo yet... still watching!

[RCSmiths]

Slap and Metal can go together so seamlessly. Love to see you showing the process of you coming up with your brilliant compositions. Cheers

Hell man. That was killer. Would be a shame that this track will not end on Spotify.

The therapy with Davie bit had me rolling, best BetterHelp plug I've seen 😆🤣🤣

[helioking]

I used to be a fan, but after hearing this masterpiece, I'm a goddam blast furnace!!!

Fantastic work as always, Charles

Casually having Davie504 in your video, gigachad.

[TheHeadown]

As a hardcore metalhead, I loved this a little more than usual. 🤘

[tiller]

That was one of the best metal riff videos I've ever seen. Truly amazing, Charles!

[SKBassist]

I had a metal phase for a bit, lost the phase, for a bit, and now it's back! Keep it up!

[RealityHasAWokeBias]

Positively evil! Devilishly creative! This was absolutely sick, Charles.

[ForgedInKaos]

that moment when you realize you have asked a musician for a playthrough, and yet the did it a month
Charles this one is BY FAR my favorite thing you have composed! it SOOO
no homo but it makes me eggs tingle

[Eizenz]

CHARLES. That was a spicy tip on matching the kick with accents from the bass line. Thank you for that. Your fade to black 5 string is beautiful.

[kaedeschulz]

You gotta make a full album with this style and perhaps with lyrics too. Seriously love this!

[D-Keys]

Charles Berthoud inspired me to post my compositions on youtube and even today I watch his videos with admiration.
So thank you very much Charles and continue your videos, it's amazing...

[bacongl]

That Schecter sounds amazing. Fishman on bass is something I rarely see. I am a Bartolini man myself but dang, I need to try those fluence. Also love the piccolo bass XD

[lylegavin]

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AND UNBELIEVABLE BROTHER !!!! YOUR TIMING IS IMPECCABLE AND YOUR TECHNIQUES ARE SO WELL EXECUTED !! YOU ARE TRULY AN ELITE PLAYER IN THE WORLD OF BASS GUITAR MY FRIEND !!!!

[hellohowareyou-fwmn]

I'm loving these new style of videos! Keep making content. You are an inspiration to me and so many other bassists around the world!

" - My cat died the other day
- Very good"

Jeez, I wasn't prepared

Have you ever heard Dominic "forest" Lapointe? He's a metal bassist with a band First Fragment formerly of Beyond Creation. I think you'd get a kick out of hearing his fretless bass technique if you haven't. Cheers Charles, this was cool af.
