Two basses? I don't see why that would be necessary...

No no! Not bass guitars. I mean like a double bass kicker on a drum set. Or two bass drums! I should have clarified better.

Oh, you mean like two bass drums instead of one? I still don't see how that would be useful...

It's mostly for metal bands and stuff. Like so the bass drum can go rly fast/do the same rhythm as the guitar as bass. Look up All that remains or The devil wears prada ernie

The devil wears prada

Haha they're a christian band and its supposed to say the devil wears prada (nice clothes) to lure you in to him. They're my favorite band! =)

Well, honstly alot of bands that use doublebass just get annoying, and i over powers the rest of everything happening.

All that remains does it very well though.

Christian bands......nah. They always trick me into listening to them.

"I woke up, and went to my kitchen.
It must have been a blessinging,
that I was still alive and kicking,
I got some oatmeal, and heated it up,
And to finish my meal,
I TOPPED IT OFF WITH JESUS!"

What? I thought that was the oatmeal song...:-(

Some Christian bands are great, music wise. Not many can pull off great lyrics without seeming rather... annoying... But I've heard of a couple. And some great bands start out in Christian Rock, and then stop mentioning God in songs. And my favourite radio station used to be Christian Rock.

Back on topic...

Double bass drums, double the awesomeness. That sound... It's just moving...

All that remains drummer is so ridiculously fast. I think he chats actually =( And yes I think double kicker is awesome! I have one on my drum set

I just find it to be completely unnecessary. Having a double kicker means you aren't fast enough to kick the single kicker at your desired speed.

ernie, actually, being able to kick the single fast enough is impossible.

I would like Christian music more if the lyrics didn't always sound like a love song to God. It's tolerable though, when someone's playing it on the radio.

Anyway, about the double kicks (is that the actual name? lol just curious), the only song I know uses them is Chop Suey. It would be pretty hard to play the set for that song with only one pedal.

Double bass pedal is the correct word to ur question =)

um. what the heck was the point of this? this was random. i think two bass pedals would make a hard rock band song on the drums.lol.

Whats the point of a forum? To talk about stupid stuff thats fun to talk about =)
