Longest growl/scream ever?

[madu]

The few I've heard:

-Micke Å does some pretty long ones in like Black Rose Immortal and Brave and Crimson
-That 20-second long in the beginning of Silence Calls the Storm by Quo Vadis, I think it's a bit fake though
-20-something in The Grudge by Tool

And then I'm probably forgetting something really obvious. But what else is there? I've heard about Peter Tägtren doing a 40-second scream, on what song is it or was it just live or something?

you realize how TRIVIAL it is to fake something like this to the point where you can't possibly hear that it's studio trickery right

Ihsahn on Towards the Pantheon is pretty fucking long.

 

[KMADD]

If I recall many moons ago Brett Hoffman had a pretty long growl
on one of the tracks on Malevolent Creation's Retribution.

one time part of my small intestines just sort of fell onto my left testicle and that's how i found out i had an inguinal hernia, and i probably screamed for damn near 5 minutes straight. unfortunately no recorded evidence of this feat of metalness exists AFAIKKK

Lyle, this is the one post of yours I'll ever approve of.

10/10

I think I'll settle for that.

But anyone have a link to that 40-second scream by Peter if he's indeed done that?

I don't know about 40 seconds, but Peter's scream at the beginning of Fire in the Sky is pretty damn long.

Also, Lyle

I think the General Diabolical Slaughter screams for almost a minute at the end of a track on Necronemesis (Usurper).
(It might have been the Inhuman Breed- I'll check myself tomorrow, if I remember / anyone cares)

Tatgren's scream at the end of Soul Evisceration is fair hectic

 

[Impure616]

Ihsahn on Towards the Pantheon is pretty fucking long.

23 seconds to be exact

Eric Adams [Manowar] - Hail and Kill[live]

that shit was pretty long.

My personal favorite. It did win rock growl of the year.

My personal favorite. It did win rock growl of the year.

Atleast it was seen as rock.. not metal.

 

[SacredReich]

A good bellow nonetheless.

I managed a 15 second high note/scream on a Killwhitneydead song...that's the longest single scream I've ever done....

Longest scream mentioned here so far. But is it real...?

A mate of mine is a Death Metal vocalist & we've clocked him at 32 seconds.

Crimson by Edge of Sanity contains a good long scream by Mikael Akerfeldt at around 28 minutes into the song. That is the only one that comes to mind off the top of my head. It sounds real too.

Meshuggah did a really awesome long scream towards the end of catch 33. Intense and long. I mean, theoretically you can scream quieter and go on for a really long time. The grudge scream owns too. One of the most tasteful screams I've heard. There is something with a really long scream, like past thirty seconds, but I can't think of it off the top of my head. It wasn't metal though.
