I know the OP asked for popular bands, but when my old band recorded our last album, I used my Epic, and a Warmoth fretless with Alembic pickups/electronics for all my basslines (oh, and a Godin A4 fretless on one song).
I can't say if they are typical of the Alembic sounds, but you can hear what an Alembic sounds like in an everyday-type setting (i.e. local band).
The band name was Left Turn at Albuquerque, and the album is up on Spotify:
