phrond]I hate screaming lyrics. I know some really good bands that play some good songs, but then they start screaming and they ruin it. I don't mind the occasional screaming chorus or even a whole song, but every song is a bit much:(.[/QUOTE]

Well it really depends on how good the vocals are, some good examples would be Zach la Rocha from Rage Against the Machine and Chris Cornell from Audioslave. Anyone heard Havoc go off from AFI?
rage against the machine = yes. davey havok's not bad, but his screaming just sounds like an extension of his singing ie forced and girly.

Screaming is good when it works in with the song. If it's just for the hell of it....:rolleyes:

But I loves me some screamed lyrics. :uhhuh:

"screaming music" just sounds wrong.

but, yes. screaming is good for the mind. so i guess if the artist is trying to convey a sense of satisfaction, then let it be.

i love system though. esp chop suey.

i was watching the clip for chop suey a few weeks ago, and i realised my exbf looks somewhat like SOAD's guitarist.
well, to me anyway. like, the eyes and the forehead.

wth? linkin park is just whining, chester bennington is the most pathetic gay ass excuse for a screamer I think i have ever heard. I've yet to hear any sort of real screaming from slipknot either.


Dani Filth was fucking ridiculous for a while, but most black metal is primarily that sort of screeching/screaming sort of thing.

Good screaming would be aloing the way of Burzum, Tom Araya from Slayer (especially on Reign in Blood) I'd agree with whoever mentioned Mikeal Aderfelt, he is an awesome singer. Also Corpsegrinder from Cannibal Corpse - he can go from low as growling to strangled screams seamlessly.

linkin park is gay

and screaming lyrics are good IF they are used moderately, i dont really like the new songs that are plagued with them , it just sounds like they are having major constapation problems.

linkin park was so much better when not many knew of them and when they weren't so mainstream.
