Because Paul McCartney is one of the greatest of all time.
Have to agree here, Paul is a fucking top notch bassist and wrote some of the most catchy and rememberable bass lines ever.

Yeah I agree on this partially, while there are some plain old run of the mill bassist in metal that do nothing but chug along with the root of the song and add no emphasis on bass fills or just have absolutely no style to them at all...

But on the other hand there are a lot of incredible bassist in metal that have created their own unique style and are just plain out fucking awesome, for instance, Cliff Burton, Steve Harris, John Myung, and Robert Trujillo...

That would be mister Les Claypool, who I consider one of the best bass players in the world ever bar none...

His degree of technical playing is fucking unreal...
