That's the thing though right there do or talk, such a important point we [me] all need to follow more.
As near as I can tell, he's got a VERY specific idea of what good bass tone is supposed to be and isn't afraid to defend that idea. I don't think he's ever claimed that he's right and everyone else is freakin' WRONG tho, but he can come off as a know-it-all at times. I think it's more of a tone-specific narrow point of view, but that's just me.
-edit - my fellow-in-Mud beat me to the response. And I love that song.

I do enjoy how him and jim go at it like a bunch of horny sheep though.
Mark Olson is a fuckin asshole that fucks baby kittens. baby kittens so fresh and squishy they still have Momma Kitty womb juice on them. he preys on pregnant cats so he can get his hole.
he's a fuck that is in love with his toobs to the point of telling efx noobs on TB that fuzz doesn't work with solid statw amps. i don't have any experience with tubes, no opinions on them, and he makes me want to stay solid satate till i die. and apparently he's kinda a shit paint by numbers player to go along with his dick-hole personality issues. his clips of gear have always been shit, but he's even more boring in a band context. good for him.

I'd forgotten about that bit...he has done that, and so I retract part of what I said earlier about him = right/everyone else = wrong.
Given his specific viewpoint, I was actually kinda surprised to find that he uses pedals at all.
He thinks he is the Hendrix'O'bass [tonewise] what I don't like about his attitude about amps is it gives people the wrong idea about tube amps and their uses.
With Mark, he only likes mudbuckers through toobz. For pedals, he's only into vintage-sounding stuff. So, basically anything that sounds like it was made before 1975 is fine. Wahs, fuzz-face or octavia-style fuzzes, and univibes. That's about it.
He thinks anything else sounds like dogshit. He's not bashful about that opinion. Everyone over at Talkbass either thinks his clips sound monstrously awesome or like muddy dogshit. I've had some PM conversations where he was useful (about a low-wattage tube amp that sounds good for bass, and when I was looking for a univibe). Otherwise, I mostly avoid his threads.

I want all seasons on Betamax.
And fuzz through tubes is different. I like it much more than SS, but it's all about different flavors. Sometimes you go for the tangy. Sometimes the tart. I think we can all assume that Behndy is the umami.
More importantly, for someone who stresses how much he gigs and how professional he is, I don't think I've ever heard any recordings of his band. That puzzles me.
