Mark Michell: Scale The Summit’s “The Dark Horse” Playthrough
Here’s another great metal playthrough by Scale the Summit’s Mark Michell. The bassist tears through “The Dark Horse” from the band’s album The Migration at EMG Pickups TV studios.
The song’s creative rhythmic variations tied with Michell’s tone make for a great bass part. Be sure to check out the bass break at the 3:48 mark.

Harmonics! Sweet. Thanks for bringing ’em back MM.
At about the 3 minute mark this gets real good. His break at the 3;45 mark is killer too. Very sexy bass – I dig!
