Hey all...
I'm looking to incorporate the blast beat within a power-metal/thrash-metal/speed-metal/epic vocal style context. Has anyone heard bands that specialize in this. I'm sure there are a lot of bands that have one or two songs like this... but the rest of their stuff is screaming and "cookie monster" growling vox. I have plans on putting a lot of hardcore patterns into my music... but I am really attracted to the Ripper Owens/King Diamond/Dio/Matt Barlow/style... (I realize that's more than one style... but, you should get the idea of what I'm talking about by listening to each of those vocalists.... you can add the singer from Symphony X, but I can't recall his name and I'm way too lazy to look for it now.)
Thanks.
And yes.. Matt Barlow still kicks ass even though he's a cop... now, probably more literally than ever.
