Siddharth_471 Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Mike Dirnt has made some of the best bass lines throughout the entire discography of Green Day and is really the best bass player in the history of punk rock. This is my own list:- 1. Longview 2. No One Knows 3. Welcome To Paradise 4. She 5. Castaway 6. Stray Heart 7. Missing You 8. Warning 9. Hitchin' A Ride 10. Scattered What are some of your favourite Green Day bass lines and why?
Chin for a Day Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 1. When I Come Around 2. When I Come Around 3. When I Come Around 4. When I Come Around 5. When I Come Around 6. When I Come Around 7. When I Come Around 8. When I Come Around 9. When I Come Around 10. When I Come Around
Hermione Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 We don't like "list threads" here . If this is going to stay open you need to say why you've picked the particular bass lines and discuss about it rather than just posting lists of songs. I'll also alter the title and OP to make it less listy.
Steven Seagull Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Longview has by far the best bass line
Vic_Rattlehead Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 1) No-One Knows 2) Basket Case 3) Longview 4) Welcome to Paradise 5) Dirty Rotten Bastards 6) Stuck With Me 7) Castaway 8) J.A.R. 9) 80 10) Pulling Teeth
Hermione Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 If you guys are just going to post lists of songs there's no point in the thread staying open. If you want to post here say something about why you like the bass lines or I'll have to close it.

When it's post after post of one favourite song it becomes a list . I can't find another thread for talking about favourite Green Day bass lines so I'd like this to stay open, there's no point if it's just typing out song names though so start discussing rather than just listing if you want it to stay. I have to agree with you that Longview is the best, it's just so out of left field and quirky with the whole lounge/jazz thing it has going on and it makes the song. The solo in Dirty Rotten bastards is pretty great too.
SamJam98 Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Personally, I like Welcome to Paradise the most. Something about it has always caught my attention since I first heard it, and I think it's what makes that song one of the best.
unextraordinarygirl Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Welcome To Paradise, Longview and Stuart and the Ave. They all have pretty sick basslines. I'm sure there's more but I can't think of them right now.

The spooky noises during the bass solo on the Kerplunk version make it particularly good
Clayish Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Stuart and the Ave. Duh. Edit: Mike kills Insomniac overall. If only they let him shine more....
