Hysteria is one of my favorite Muse bass lines (out of many), so here's my tutorial on how to play it! This lesson video includes some slowed down play alongs for the main riff, chorus, and breakdown sections, as well as some explanation of the music theory that went into making the Hysteria bass line the way it is.

Don't be intimidated by this bass line - just start slow and you'll get it with time.

And yeah, that's a banana on my arm.
