One of my big influences to become bassist was Anatoliy Krupnov and his thrash band “Black Obelisk“. There are plenty of articles written about Anatoliy and history of “Black Obelisk” you can read on their site. Here is just random set of videos with this great bassist. All of his bass lines, fast or slow, complex or simple always perfect from first note till last one. He had He died in 1997 from heart attack in the studio while recording his solo album. Black Obelisk died with him. Right now Black Obelisk up from the ash and their “Green Album” is more like progressive metal than thrash one. Very professional and musical album.

Here is some Black Obelisk videos from YouTube:
