Then we went back and listened to it, and we thought, “If we make the sound edgy enough, it could actually sound quite cool.” So we put a Hematoma pedal on it. I had a very slight, top-endy distortion to crunch it up a little. Obviously the danger with slap bass is if you go for that super-clean, twangy, “nice” bass sound, it ends up sounding like Level 42." Yaeh right,Chris.... dis the L42 sound all you want...like no-one's ever had the incredibly original thought of putting distortion on their bass before Muse,have they?Sad
