Hello there everyone!
As the title states, i wanted to open a small thread about Metal singers out there.
Why? Well, the thing is that i like a lot of metal. Folk, Power, Prog, Heavy, Symphonic and so on...
I'm always looking for new bands, the genre doesn't really mate.
Now, i've been sitting through a lot of bullshit when it comes to metal, because i've opened a thread like this a few other places (other forums... don't go looking for me somewhere else on mmo-champ :P)
Anyway, back to the subject, what i would like this thread to become, is a listing of peoples personall favourite singer(s).
80's metal, 90's, present?? Man or Woman?
1. Leave your opinion the best singer around atm (likely with a link to it on youtube or something like that) Just keep it to your personal preferences, no need to get commercial
Feel free to add more than one. Keep men and women separate please, since it's hard to compare them when it comes to metal. Also, please note what genre the metal is
As the OP, i'll start out of course.
Falconer - Mattias Blad (Perjury and Sanctity Perjury and Sanctity and Catch the Shadows) There's many more with him really showing off in high pitch.
Now, let's turn 100 pages and go straight to the opposite kind of metal.
Progressive and Thrash.
Matt, freaking, Barlow.
If you like thrash, you probably know him from Iced Earth, if you don't... then you don't REALLY like thrash. Kiddin', but most thrash fans should know him.
And progressive, because he did some work with Danish Pyramaze in 2009 (also because Iced Earth is a bit progressive themselves), for their album Immortal... If you like Matt, check out their album, he's really shining in tracks such as Year of the Phoenix (Yea, that's actually myself who put that one up, though it's all over youtube already ^^)
And with Iced EarthIm-Ho-Tep (Pharaoh's Curse))
