Cov' from the 'Snake

Mikael Akerfeldt is a fantastic DM singer along with David Vincent and Glenn Benton. I like to hear at least SOME of the fucking words, not just "RRRRAAAR, RROOOAAORRR, WWWWWAAAAAHHHHHH, EEEEEEEEE" all the time y'know what I'm sayin'?

 

[Ender Rises]

Agreed. That's what bugs me a lot about Behemoth, although I can appreciate the dude's voice, I can't understand a FUCKING word.

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

Agreed. That's what bugs me a lot about Behemoth, although I can appreciate the dude's voice, I can't understand a FUCKING word.

That's like me with Nile.

 

[Ender Rises]

Are they good enough that the vox are made up for by the music?

 

[Mormagil]

celtic frost
burzum

yawn

 

[Thoth-Amon]

Whaaaaaaaa?!

Exactly!

 

[.Crushed.Dreams.]

Hmm best draw-dropping vocals...

Uh Maynard for sure, from Tool and APC. Randy from Lamb Of God <3 umm in flames and soilwork, which have similarities are deffinately up there on my list especially the growling, screaming. Mikael from Opeth, Nevermore vocalist, I think his name is Warren, and the vocalist from As I Lay Dying, and Christina Scabbia from Lacuna Coil.
I'm clearly forgetting a whole bunch of amazing bands, but those are from the top of my head.

 

[Death Aflame]

I love Markus Johansson's harsh vocals in Eucharist, the guy is a master at that mid-ranged black metalish style.

Overall: Probably the Empyrean Sky singer for sheer skill and range, awesome tone to his voice as well.

 

[cookiecutter]

Agreed. That's what bugs me a lot about Behemoth, although I can appreciate the dude's voice, I can't understand a FUCKING word.

Hearing the words is not the point of death vocals.

Favorite bands vocal wise:
Behemoth
Dying Fetus
Carcass

All great bands with great vocals. Funny thing is I initially didn't like the vocals of these bands, but grew used to them, and now I like them a lot. Behemoth is so powerful, Dying Fetus is so headbanging, and Carcass has great use of the mid and the low growl.

 

[Skepticism]

Saint Vitus
Agalloch
Burning Witch
Khanate

 

[Unwanted-Soul]

1349 -Heart- His vocal style is so original, unlike most bm bands who all sound the same.

 

[Stormwatch]

That's like me with Nile.

You can hear him singing the words perfectly in the chorus to "Black Seeds of Vengeance".

 

[Bryant]

WHo is the voice of metal ?

Dio

runners up....


Udo
Andy Kuntz
Urban Breed

Bryant

 

[BlackSeedsOnVirginSoil]

Anaal Nathrakh have fucking brutal vox.
They're mad niggerish.

I enjoy them, the variations between clean and distorted growl.
