New Arch Enemy Album Opinions!!!

[replicator]

What do you thinks about some clean vocals by Crist Ammot on the next record?

 

[Misanthrope]

Arch enemy with cleans? all the better. But i can see a flamewar burning everywhere, not that i care of course.

 

[Bleakest Harvest]

Who cares, Arch Enemy are average at best.

 

[Misanthrope]

if you dont care let me walk you to the door

*slams his face against the wall al bundy style*

There now go

*trows him out of the thread*

 

[Speedkill]

I liked Wages of Sin until I realized it sounds exactly like Carcass's Heartwork.

 

[Bleakest Harvest]

*reenters thread*

ahem

I'll stay hear and voice my opinion about Arch Enemy 'till my throat hurts.

Average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average average

Are you really saying that outloud as you type???

 

[Bleakest Harvest]

a....ver....age....aarargh!

*can't speak now voice gone*

 

[Rusty]

Where's the "I'll reserve my judgement until I hear it" option??

 

[CAIRATH]

Uh... yeah. Let's just wait and see.

I thought Wages of Sin was a great album and I think clean vocals could be interesting. I'd rather hear Angela's clean vocals though (she can actually sing too, not just growl). But either way it will probably be interesting.

Atleast they're trying out new things. I can always respect that. And I can't wait for the new album.

How do you know that? (Not doubting you, just curious)

 

[Cynical Bastard]

I couldn't say I know it for a fact, but I've read that she can actually sing opera and has been trained.

 

[Elysian Blaze]

I don't want another Soilwork. I like my Arch Enemy nice and non-clean vocal like. I'm glad that Chris does clean vox in Armageddon, but it should stay that way.

 

[Gnuckell]

I think Arch enemy is a pretty boring band...

 

[CAIRATH]

Angela took singing lessons and vocal coaching for a while and when she had a problem with her vocal cords. She actually had to practice normal singing a lot to train her vocal cords better.

I don't remember the exact details but I read it on the Arch Enemy website at some point. I think it might have been the "Message from Angela to the fans" article that appeared on the site after they had to blow off the Japanese tour because of her throat problems.

 

[[KOTNO]Narrot]

not my kind of music...

 

[Mad Poet]

I think Angela should do the clean vocals. That would be unique, probably something never done before: female vocals both harsh and clean. It would be cool if she balanced them, like Opeth or In Flames or Soilwork (sue me, but I very much like both NBC & RTR).

Arch Enemy is one of the best band in the business, but i don´t think Wages of Sin sounds similar to Carcass, no way Jeff Walker is a metal good, and Angela a pretty bitch!!!

 

[7 Dying Trees]

Clean vocals? If done well it can be pretty good, but we'll have to see. I also disagree with the opinion that Arch Enemy are an average band. They aren't opeth, they aren't progressive, but guess what? They aren't trying to be. Opeth is thinking music, Arch Enemy is more run around manically music.

Anyone who types 3 words about a band without explaining their opnion, then comes back to reiterate it without even attempting to explain themselves has got to be related to forest gump. Look ma, ah can ruhn....

I liked wages of sin, but still prefer their older album stigmata.

 

[Demonspell]

I also think Arch Enemy was better with Johan...and after having heard Armageddon's latest, I'm all for Chris doing clean vox.
