Well, everyone is entitled to their opinion, so let's leave it there. I think some sort of death metal-lyrics would disrupt the fine, sometimes unnotisable characteristics of their music.
But that's just what I think.

I'll have to agree with the fella with the penguin cozies. (sorry, been wanting to say "penguin cozy" for a while, now...) I have started listening to bands that, personally, I loathe the vocal style they use, but because of their music I've gotten into them and by listening to them more have come to appreciate the vocals. Personally, vocals like Iniquity's drive me nuts. On the other hand, I feel that Chuck BIlly's performances on Demonic and The Gathering are some of the best of his career. So, with that fine distinction in mind, I've found that good vocalists happen to bad music just as much as bad vocalists happen to good music.retarded penguin said:
Oddly, enough -- if you're to take to the top two dorky teenybopper divas, right now, Spears and Aguilera, and compare the two, Christina's voice is infinitely better than Brittney's. That said, my brain turns inside out when I am forced by whatever nefarious methods are used at the time to listen to them, but having had to listen to them both, I will say that Aguilera's voice is her saving grace. Brittney has none.
Now, that said, a band whose vocal performance came REALLY close to turning me off from an excellent techincal metal band was Anacrusis. Exceedingly high-pitched screaming (screaming, not Santuary-era falcetto) does nothing for me except make me run to check to make sure the kids are OK...
Well in regards to the original topic, I agree with the majority here...
Why would you want to take the one thing that really makes Nevermore special, and ruin it? Sure the guitarwork is great (I'm a guitarist, and I LOVE Loomis' work) the drumming is excellent, but if you just lay death metal vocals over it they will sound just like any other death metal group. I love Satyricon, Dark Tranquility, Carcass, Opeth etc, as much as the next guy, but do something different. Have an innovative sound. His vocals are the main reason Nevermore is so special.
Although a well placed growl for emphasis on certain words every once in a while would be cool. Sonata Arctica's (one the best rock singers I've ever heard) Kakko RARELY growls. But he does do it maybe once or twice an album, and I think it's great. But overusing it will just land you back in cliche land.
Just my thoughts... for what it's worth.

I couldn't see Nevermore doing Death growls, it would be weird. Warrel's voice is godly, and it will always stay that way.

Nope, I don't agree with you. I think Warrel's vocals complement the music in a perfect way. They add both agression and a lot of melody. A perfect ingredient for their kind of music!
I think Warrel's vocals is what defines Nevermore's sound. I love their albums as they are. I am not against growling, but I doubt they'd go well with Nevermore's music.
well, i like his voice most of the time, but on we disintegrate, the verse where he says "lies a void called ego" and the one before it, he just sounds annoying. i dont like squealing. otherwise the song is perfect.
but other songs like evolution 169 he sounds awesome, and the sound of silence as well.

by only judging songs on Dead Heart isnt saying much for Warrel's voice. hear the whole catalogue first
If you want a piece of Nevermore and death vocals, listen to Pure Sweet Hell, Van's side band: www.puresweethell.com
I think death vocals would kind of ruin the point of Nevermore--melodic vocals over aggressive music is what they do, and not too many bands can successfully pull it off. That's their thing and maybe they realize that death vocals might come across as "trying to catch up with what all the other bands are doing". Maybe they don't feel the need to do it, or maybe Warrel's voice doesn't do death. I'm a vocalist/guitarist in a band with a similar theme. In my case, I'd like to throw in the occassional death throes behind clean harmonies, but my voice doesn't do it. Closest I can get is a Tom Araya-like scream. Dammit.
