There's slap on the new Dragonforce album.
Yes, I know the bassist quit, but does that affect the fact that there is slap on the album? No.
So no-one mention it.
cheers

There are no slap basslines, but he does slap with his thumb on accents. The bassist from Cryptopsy doesn't a slap thing similar to fieldy where he slaps everything, only he doesn't do the ugly clicky double-slap thing.
Atheist has great real slap lines though that are very Claypoolesque, except a little further back in the mix (at least on Elements).

No, Jeff always saw himself as a singer first and not a bassist, and admitted his bass playing was nothing special, saying he'd rather leave the musical duelling to Ken and Bill.

no thanx rik i got the album 2day w00t
I am going to listen to this Grand Conjuration song.
Oh, I've already heard this song.
There's no slap in this song?
If so, it doesn't matter, because if I didn't notice it, it's obviously not important.
Maybe I'm forgetting the huge funk breakdown.

Grand Conjuration video, it shows him slapping. There is also a Live Deliverance clip floating around that has him slapping.
And so he should with his Miller sig :p

He's popping an open D while slapping the line with his thumb, the D is the ringing note.

Not what I meant.
Man, I never would have known that Opeth song had two seconds of inaudible slap if I didn't watch the video.

Blackwater Park has slap in it towards the end, and he slaps for accenting on Deliverance live like somebody said. Other than that, I can't really think of any slap in Opeth
