The Top Ten

2018.
Bassist - Linus Klausenitzer
This song is so tidy that I didn't expect to hear a bass solo. But it was incredible to hear a
bass solo right before the guitar solo. The transition is awesome. - Metal_Treasure

2009.
Bassist - Jeroen Paul Thesseling
He plays a 6-string fretless bass (there's video on YT where you can see him play).
According to many (mostly metal bassists), this is the song that made fretless bass in metal cool again, after a long period of oblivion. - Metal_Treasure
