I don't think I have seen it mentioned here, but I am really enjoying Messiah's Choir of Horrors. Great OS death/thrash.
Gutteral vocals and breakdowns, when done right, are awesome.
Anyone else a big fan of Wormed and Dripping?
Benton has better diction than most singers
Benton's a beast of a growler, a lot better than Mullen growlwise.If by better you mean worse...
Benton's vocals on most of Deicide's studio recordings are below par in comparison with people such as Frank Mullen and Luc Lemay. And they're even more half-assed live (provided he decides he actually wants to show up to a gig for once).
He does have a distinguishable (and vaguely original) style though so I suppose that counts for something
EDIT: Also his lyrics become very boring after listening to the 6th song about why God is an asshole
Diction = vocabulary and choice of words. It has nothing to do with clarity of pronounciation. Benton's dection sucks. The lyrics are not well written and the word satan is way overused. Benton is an idiot.
diction=articulation of speech.
Know thy language, as they say
