Originally posted by VitaminG View PostI'm not familiar with Obituary but based on that pic, he probably sounds like Mark Knopfler or Buddy Holly. Clearly the wrong tone for metal. I'm with you, Martin. He's metalling wrong

Originally posted by MartinBarre View PostI remember reading years ago, probably around the time they first came out that John Tardy didn't even sing lyrics, he just made noises. I've definitely heard him singing words to things like "I Don't Care", so is there any truth to that?

Originally posted by watson503 View PostI'll have to pull out my copy of Choosing Death but I remember reading in there that Tardy did make-up some of the lyrics (noises) in parts of the tracks off of Slowly We Rot. That's also something I've heard about Lord Worm and the None So Vile album, supposedly he was drunk during the vocal recordings and just made stuff up on the spot on some of the songs.

Originally posted by MartinBarre View PostHa, Cryptopsy's vocals do just sound like someone puking to me, I could not get into them at all, it sounded fucking stupid. I've been meaning to read that book for a while, is it any good? I LOVED the black metal book, can't remember the name now, probably Lords of Chaos or something, although it was pretty disturbing. They were all fucking mental!

Originally posted by watson503 View PostHahahaha Yeah, I actually really dig the music on that album but those vocals just kill it for me. I highly recommend reading that book, really good stuff in there covering death metal with some cool stories about Death, Morbid Angel, and a lot of the classic death metal and grindcore bands. Lords Of Chaos was a wild read, another good one from that same publishing house is Lucifer Rising that you might dig.
