Male Death/Female Clean Vocals

[S<issors]

Been listening to Draconian a lot lately, and I think that they really pull off the male/female vocal contrast very well- logical extension of the whole death vox/clean vox thing that bands like good ol' Opeth do. Could anyone recommend me some similar material?

The Project Hate MCMXCIX, they are not similar to Draconian other than the fact that there's male death and female clean vocals. The band fucking rules.

We (Novembers Doom) used to feature the male death/female clean vocal mix alot on our earlier albums like "The Knowing" and "Of Sculptured Ivy and Stone Flowers".

I like some Draconian too, good stuff.

 

[Risquit]

I would use the Therion chicks. They rule.

 

[Liquid Tension]

I like the new Tristania disc Illumination...

You should check them out...

Some good stuff on After Forever albums but these days I cant stop listening to Therion-Vovin, liked the woman voice on that album

 

[beast from the east]

Yes, Draconian is KICK ASS. Tristania is good, Sirenia is better. Penumbra has an album called "Seclusion" that has some great "beauty and the beast" type vocals.

 

[Meanspark]

well I need this album

I heard Project Hate and i remember fucking hating it...sounded like a boring death-metalized Fear Factory with some completely out of place Female vocals not too different from that chick of Lacuna Coil, idk, i thought it was pretty bad. They are very hyped by the metal media though, can't really see why, maybe i'm gay.
Btw, i truly despise all bands with a growler and a female singer in them, not my thing at all.

oh ok

Have yet to sample some of these bands, but Draconian are quite badass, so I know the female vocals/death growls thing can be done right.

Get the new TPH web single.

Is there a single cornier and more overplayed trick in the Hot Topic metal book at this point?

 

[Kenneth R.]

Yes. We call them Children of Bodom.

That's like referring to death growls as a "corny overplayed trick." It's a style of singing, and it happens to sound good when done correctly.

 

[S<issors]

My first impressions were incorrect, you actually seemed like you had some interesting ideas over on the Death Metal thread

SoG? He's a retard.
