>>129056081Not even close, Peart was famous.
>>129056121Karmakanic. The bassist of a popular (within the genre) progressive rock band started his own side project. He does not sing on any songs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpRGwjZtH34
Varg. He played bass for Mayhem without providing any vocals.
>>129056265fuck that
>>129056081The Beatles
>>129056333There's a good one. Primus, but that's cheating because Les sings.
>>129056416how is that cheating? "the most famous member is the bass player". OP didn't say anything about vocals. also Primus was already named
Metallica
>>129056624He's definitely not the most famous memberr of Met, but that bass is kick ass. John Taylor from Duran Duran had the same kind when he recorded Rio. RIP Japanese instrument industry.

>>129056081Greg Lake
The one with nice legs in that Argentine or Chilean group someone used to shill here.
>>129056402Based Phil Lynot poster. Hilarious how many dumb faggots in this thread don’t know about Thin Lizzy. Absolute fucking retards.
Kiss. Surprised nobody said this yet
probably Yes (sadly, Chris Squires tone sucks and Bill is much cooler)
>>129056081Dog starEchobrain

>>129057407Hnnnng
>>129056286The objectively hottest sister is Daniela tho.
>>129056081The BeatlesBeach Boys
>>129059613Well, Gene was "the guy who spit blood", WCW wrestling had a Kiss demon wrestler, Gene was in movies and Miami Vice and had a reality TV show. Gene is more recognisable to people who can't name more than two of their songs, but Paul doing most of the vocals makes him known to rock music fans.
>>129056333PUCCI?
