Those low screams are unreal. I didn't know a human could produce sound that low.

Tim and I were hardcore fans. I'm not as much anymore, and I can't really speak for Tim. Our friend Logan is to be able to easily sing like that. I even met Dayofpain at a hardcore show a couple years ago.

Good lyrics, real together instrumentation. The pace of the singer throws me off a bit tho; it's hard to follow, even with the lyrics right in front of me!

I still like some hardcore, but I won't lie, I listen to the melodic stuff. I just can't get in to bands with bad-sounding vocals, crazy BPMs and songs written around break downs.

Since this is a video thread...

Me, I just can't stand most metal vocalists.

But I love me the instrumental stuff.

Though, I do like Mike Patton. He's probably about the only vocalist of any genre that I would say I like. IMO, he doesn't get in the way of the music like most do.

+1 for Mike Patton. Somehow you can always understand him even when he's screaming. He was a little bitch when I saw Mr. Bungle at Slims like 10 years ago though.

Oh yeah, speaking of vocalists, here's the really "soft" Stone Sour song I was talking about last night, from their first big album. Same lead singer as Slipknot.

I remember that song, nice post my friend.

Nick, if you like the complex guitar and drum side of metal you should check out Sleep Terror

Pete, I wish Logan and the guys never broke up, or at least not so quickly. They were sooo good when they opened for Misery Signals.

Both the guitarist and drummer of Sleep Terror are extremely talented. Here's a video of just the drummer-

That stuff sounds awesome. It reminds me of this local (where I went to college) band called Idiot Savant that I used to see a bit.

But then they got a singer and ruined it all when they moved to LA.

I think xbox is making that available for Guitar Hero III as a download.


:lol:

Funny you should say that Tyson

PS: I'm going to see these guys in a couple weeks in Stuttgart :)

I love technical crazy guitar playing...Alexi Laiho is my idol for guitar playing...

Seriously. They never even made a CD, but that was actually the best Reno show I've ever been too.

CD's are a material object.

Albums, Ep's are a performance of Art.

Sorry just bothers the hell of out me.

An "Album" and an "EP" are exactly the same thing as a "CD"...

EP stands for "Extended Play", which is a specific format of vinyl record with a shorter play time than an LP (Long Play). It's just as much a material object as a CD is.

And if you really want to get crazy about it, an "album" is literally a collection of records that come together in a folder, at least that's what the term started as in the early 1900's. Though it's come to be a way to reference a collection of songs without regards to the specific recording technology, it does in fact refer to the songs in terms of a recording for public distribution, and is not actually a generic term for "a group of songs that are together a performance of art". i.e. "album" means "songs on a cd, or cassette, or vinyl record, or 8-track, or mp3, etc". An album does not exist without a recording medium, and therefor Pete's statement of "They never even made a CD" is equivalent to "Then never even made an album" with the exception that Pete was being specific about the target medium of the album.

:P

When someone says album they mean music for sure you don't need a "target medium". "They never made a CD" does not equal they "never made an album" to me. That's why it bothers me hence my post.

A CD has all kinds of crap on it music, software, pictures.

I still cant figure out why your not married.:lol:

Man. Scott making fun and defending me in the same day. And they made an album, but I can't play vinyl. I wish they made a CD though.

Pete, I've got one horribly recorded mp3 of theirs. I'll send it to you.

Here's another good melodic hardcore/metal (whatever you want to classify it as) song

The Human Abstract- Vela, Together We Await The Storm

The Video

I think the video is a bit too "Panic At The Disco" so here's the live-ish version

Menomena - Evil Bee

I really like the look. The small youtube version kinda sucks, much better on TV.

^ That's such a cool video!
