-Einsturzende Neubauten/ "Zerstoerte Zelle"/ Five on the Open-Ended Richter Scale/ Marc Chung.

"Eye Flies", The Melvins, Gluey Porch Treatments (Matt Lukin).
"The Footmacist", Evil Beaver, Lick It! (Evie Evil).
"Brave New Baby", Mary Prankster, Tell Your Friends (Jon E. Cakes)
"Myage", The Descendents, Milo Goes to College (Tony Lombardo)
"Your Last Affront", Black Flag, The Process of Weeding Out (Kira Rosseler)
"Take What's Ours", The Line, Monsters We Breed (Rich Kaiser)
Which is easily one of the best bass tones I've ever heard on a studio album.
I almost put Lou Barlow's into to "Forget the Swan" from the first Dinosaur album, but then I remembered that started with drums. Bah.

Media Person, Rudimentary Peni. I own the collection of EP's titled the EP's or RP, so I'm not certain that this would be the first track on the original EP, but I'd like to think so.
Here comes Dudley from Goat and Fly on the Wall from Down are also worth mentioning in spite of drum accompaniment.

Nirvana really was good at opening a lot of their songs with nifty little basslines...
Sliver - Nirvana
Lounge Act - Nirvana
I think we have Nirvana covered now...
