Okay, but how can ANYONE hear this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWggPLXeOkU ?

It's a great track and I love it, but how were the lyrics heard by the people who posted them on the internet? Did the album include lyrics? Because I can't even make out when the guy actually starts saying things and not just screaming. Where exactly does he start singing about alcohol and dick??

That bridge in the middle is fantastic, but I get the feeling that that guitar line is actually quite common?
 
"Mindtrain" - - Yoko Ono, off the album (yes it was wax) "Fly"

Metal always seemed a little tame, to me, compared with what some of the art crowd was doing.
 
If you like screamo you might like Alexisonfire. They have been my favorite band for the last few years. They are a post hardcore band that has a couple of screaming singers and one who has brilliant, melodic voice.

I like a little screaming in songs as well as it adds aggression or emotion to the song.

yeh i have heard of them, but havnt heard any songs yet. thanx for the advice. and yeah i agree bout the aggression and emotion screaming brings to certain songs. what other bands do you like? Throwdown?
 
Actually I do like Throwdown. Someone in a forum put me on to them because I was a Hatebreed fan. They are similar.

If you like Atreyu you might like Bullet for My Valentine, Underoath, Poison the Well or Killswitch Engage.

If you like Slipknot you might like Dry Kill Logic, Mudvayne, Nothingface or 36 Crazy Fists.

I just downloaded a Job for a Cowboy song then as I hadn't heard them before. Now thats heavier. Closer to Shadows Fall, Bleeding Through or As I Lay Dying. You're from NSW? Have you heard Parkway Drive? They are from Byron Bay.
 
My friend is the lead singer of a "scream metal" band...I honestly don't know how he sings that way without needing to cough. :) It's a little heavy for me...but it definitely takes talent to do some of the things he does with his voice.

I guess I'm getting old. (puts on a Barry Manilow album)

No. To be honest I'm not that into metal or grindcore--it's very much a sometimes thing. Used to be into hardcore but don't listen to that much these days either. I did know the singer for Discordance Axis and helped engineer (if you can call it that) a single they did.

ok i personally love music with screaming in it. bands like the Used, Atreyu, Slipknot, Job For A Cowboy and that kind of thing. But ive had so many people tell me that these bands all have no talent at all, coz all they do is scream. thats not entirely true, coz The Used and Atreyu sing in parts of their songs, but most of their songs are predominately screaming.
so what do you guys think of screaming music? do you think its talentless crap? or do you think that it takes alot of effort and voice control to sing like that?

i know this kind of music isnt to everybodys taste (i even used to hate the stuff lol) but do you think theyre talentless or talented?

heres a link to a screaming song incase youve been living under a rock and havnt heard any before lol

Atreyu - Lipgloss And Black

i know what you meen i love music with screaming in it, i love Trivium, Aveneged Sevenfold and lots more,
 
Extremism for it's own sake shows a lack of creativity. I find excessive screaming homogonizes a groups sound as well as undermines the supposed cathartic emotional release that screaming is supposed to signify. There's no poinancy in screamo. Music should always be a poetic interplay between tension and release. When every song is dominated with the cookie monster on coke vocals it leaves a lot to be desired. I'm not saying these bands aren't talented as some have incredible instrumental chops... It's just that its supposed to sound intense and scary but instead it comes across as comical posturing most of the time.
