Best ever scream in metal?

[Hammer of Might]

What do you think is the best ever scream in metal, of any genre? You can take 'scream' quite broadly by the way.

Two of my favourites are:

1) The Number of the Beast - you know the one!!

2) Infinite Dreams (Maiden) - Bruce does a really harsh scream which introduces a fast section!

I also think the one at the start of Angel Of Death is pretty cool!

What do you think isthe best scream?

I thought "HA HA he didn't say Angel of Death! That's what I'm going to say" and then I read the rest of your post.

Hypocrisy - Apocalyptic Hybrid
Cryptopsy - Loathe (at the end, absolutely ferocious)
Dissection - Where Dead Angels Lie

those 3 are the first that come to mind.

 

[SculptedCold]

I'll just offer the obvious one;

Cryptopsy - Open Face Surgery

 

[Hammer of Might]

Keep 'em coming!

Shit, the one by Dan Swanö in Dissection "Black Horizons"...

 

[TB666]

Anything with Dani Filth.

 

[Spirit In Black]

Cryptopsy - Open Face Surgery

I'll second that one and add Tool - Eulogy

 

[Slayed Necros]

Absu - Apzu.

Tool has that one 30 second scream.

And Cryptopsy has a 27 second one.

And Godsmack have this scream in Changes, that's 10 seconds long, but it's totally awesome.

The best scream in metal IS (no arguing!!!) the scream of Fabio Lione in Rhapsodys classic "Flames of Revenge" at 1:10

 

[SculptedCold]

The word 'Rhapsody' put me off investigating.

 

[Benzine]

It should inspire you!!!

no serious its awesome

 

[IOfTheStorm]

you all said the absolute gay screams compared to
Ian Gillan's screams in "Child In Time"

 

[anonymousnick2001]

Oh, and Chuck Schuldiner in "Painkiller". Day-amn!

 

[dirty_sandwich666]

Cryptopsy - open face surgery (live 1995 with Lord Worm)

He extends the scream at the end to about 15 seconds longer than it is on the album.

Psycroptic - The sword of uncreation

The short scream at the beginning makes my blood curdle.

Cannibal Corpse - Devoured By Vermin

the scream at 2:22 is just fucking metal


Dark Funeral - The arrival of satan's empire


those are just the first few that come to mind. the list could be made huge if 'best growls' were included

 

[anonymousnick2001]

Oh, not to forget Euronymous as Varg hacked him to death.

Note: Not recorded on tape

 

[MightyDrynwhyl]

Mayhem-Freezing Moon(w/Dead)
Burzum-Ea,Lord of the Depths
Disgorge-She Lay Gutted
...andOceans-Baby Blue Doll
