If you like Sabbath you'll like these guys.
I believe the bass player is playing a BurgundyGlo or AzurGlo 4001.

First heard these guys in 1993. Love 'em. One of the first so-called stoner rock bands.

It was a 92' JetGlo 4003 , I had it custom painted green metal flake. The bass is still around.

Al, is that still your main bass or one of your main basses?
Post a picture of it.

I don't have any stills of it from back in the day, but this is the bass in 94' on our US tour with Hawkwind.

I saw you guys OM supporting Shellac in London a couple of weeks back. Very, very cool - unlike anything else I've ever seen. Hope to see you with Sleep at ATP.

Let's see, early 90's, I must have been asleep to miss this...so Sabbath in Chains! Quality work from six hands and an eerie voice! I suddenly feel like scaring someone! My new girlfriend better watch out, the hands are active. Nice...
