absolutely agree with the top 2 posts...and have grown up in the metal/punk scene as well as the groove/jazz scene.
When I think of groovy metal double bass, I go right to Tim Alexander of Primus; Vinnie Paul of Pantera, Mike Bordin of Faith No More....
I mean, if you listen to Pudding Time by Primus, even the running double bass part in the middle is phat!!!
I find groove in some of Gene Hoglands playing with Strapping Young Lad...the song Love...
but I think the more important thing is that "Groove" is not just space with funky syncopated bass parts...groove has to happen within, and be defined, by a style. I even find groove in classical music
some songs that other songs that groove, but are not the mainstream definition:
Gangland by Iron Maiden (single bass)
Hot For Teacher - Van Halen
Red Hot - Motley Crue
Bleed - Meshuggah
