i think they're touring with meshuggah, who i really like.
i don't like their vocalist, either. if you're going to do death metal growls, they either have to be really deep and gutteral or very forceful. otherwise you just sound like you're half-assing it. the actual vocal technique for death metal growls is almost exactly like melodic singing. for good death metal vocals see: opeth (guy's got a good singing voice, too.) or decapitated.
cynic is ok. they're huge in the metal scene, but i never really got into them. i think some of the music is overproduced, and some of it is overwrought. the danger, too, when mixing jazz and metal, is getting lumped in with dillinger escape plan's older work. i think some of psyopus's music mixes jazz and metal well, but they're really fucking spastic.
edit: yes, cynic is touring with meshuggah and the faceless. the faceless are garbage. |
death to false metal. |
