best bass led rock/metal bands?

RATM aren't a lot of people's thing and I understand the lyrics are cornball but I like the bass a lot in their music

can we please name bass 'orientated' rock/metal bands?

White Zombies bassist rips

She dated rob before being in the band but obviously is very talented

Jinjers bassist actually composes most of the music and his lines ****ing rip

Most bands you don’t notice the bassist tbh

Maybe Korn ? Maybe ? IDK

I think most prog metal is pretty bass heavy if that’s your thing

Pantera depending on the album like TGSTK and Far beyond Driven

Oh and ofc I gotta add type o negative RIP green giant
