Isn't this the most badass bassist of all time?

He's good, but not my favorite.

good? you mean excellent

For some reason it isn't available in my country.

Alex Webster from Cannible Corpse

Can't talk about badass bassists and not have Les Calypool of Primus as part of the discussion.

Steve Harris from Iron Maiden.

Lemmy. RIP

Tom Araya, Jason Newsted, Alex Webster or Cliff Burton.

Cliff will always be my favorite, may he rest in piece. Orion is my favorite song of all time.

Nice, for me The Call of Ktulu will always be his magnum opus.

I believe Jason could've contributed just as much as much (if not more) if only the band allowed him to. What a waste.

@black_wreath: Definitely not a bad choice either. Metallica has great instrumental songs.

I agree, no offence to Robert but he does not hold a candle to his predecessors.

@cpt_nice: Indeed Robert is a fine bassist but can't quite measure up.

@rag_man: The truth. Awesome talent.
