dammit i was just about to say that, im not 100% sure if its real or not either

i know its not really metal, but the grudge by tool has a 25 second non-falsetto scream

lost in the light by dungeon also has a good 20 second scream where he says "what have we done weve gone too faAaAaAaAaAaAaArRrRrRYeEeEaAaAaAaAhHhHhHhH" that goes INCREDIBLY fucking high, changes notes, and has vibato. lord tim = great vocalist
 
Well, I don't think any of these people have held notes as long as these without help. Here's the world record holder for all vocal styles, also of my favorite band in the world, a-ha:

"This record is held by Morten Harket, lead singer with group A-Ha. In "Summer Moved On" (no. 33, June 2000) he holds a vocal note for 20.2 seconds."
 
"It is worth pointing out that a number of recent dance tracks have utilised digital 'stretching' techniques to give the impression of extended vocals. We have management / record company confirmation that the notes being held in the above tracks were all done in 'real time' and represent genuine vocal skill. Click here to hear Morten Harket perform the "Summer Moved On" note live (really) at the 1998 Nobel Peace Prize Concert.</FONT> "

I believe that Open Face Surgury scream was real, but he wasn't drumming when he did it. Thats for certain. When screaming high like that it doesn't need a whole lot of air. On the live version they have to help him a little at the beggining but that is quite understandable. Listen to what he's doing while he's screaming!

I second this suggestion - Lost in the Light by Dungeon has an awesome scream! Unfortunately I don't think very many people on this board know this band yet, but Dungeon are one of the featured bands on the UltimateMetal forums main page - check them out!! :)
