My question is, how do you audition the singer, no wait, vocali...er, screamer?

Forum Administrator | | Join Date: Mar 2000 Location: atlanta ga | | | i've heard screamer stuff like that that at least sounded ok from a production standpoint, but the guitars sounded like they were recorded through a pc speaker that was shoved up someone's nose - they hurt my ears way more than screamy-kins. the guitar-tone equivalent of arnold horshack.

Not my kind of music, but the recording is somehow cool. |

With all the screaming, I'm inclined to nominate "Zombie Burger King Playland Meth Incident" as their next album title. No need to thank me, just forward royalties to my PayPal account.

At least we can seek comfort in the fact that if the lead screamer keeps singing like that he'll shred is vocal chords faster than any AC/DC singer.
Diamanda Galas is easier to listen to than these guys. That reminds me, I still need to pick up "The Sporting Life" with JPJ.  |

This kind of stuff is fun to play and if you get it right it sounds awesome, but it's easy to get it wrong and then it just sounds like crap.
The song is also way too long.
