Conifer's Troy landmammal (23:35)
The only vocals are some creepy as hell screams that kind of sound like a cross between a little boy, and a pig!

2112 definitely! Maybe its because making a screechy singing sound isn't that hard for someone who can't sing

same here... I even spent an entire evening with Raffaella out on the town speaking in death metal growls.. she loved it LOL  No wonder she loves me.. it isn't for my looks that is for sure hahahha.



yeah, but i can't sing so then when it gets to the clean vocals in opeth songs i just can't handle it. i have to go around with someone with a decent voice so i can growl and they can sing.


that's Raff and I .. and the foundation for the album we are working on LOL. it started with that night  actually.. she loved the growling.. and she has a wonderful voice.

on a serious note... that is what really hooked me on Opeth.. I love the dynamic contrasts in his singing. He really does have a great voice.. at least to these ears...

Once Around the World - It Bites

This has got to be the happiest "epic" I've ever obnoxiously sang out a car window to a busy Downtown Los Angeles audience!

Russia on Ice - Porcupine Tree

Depressing, but a great three-in-the-morning "I think I might need a cry" sing-a-long song.

I have three:

1. Supper's Ready - Genesis
2. Van Der Graaf Generator - A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers
3. Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick

I picked the obvious ones, but could you pick some less obvious ones?


i'm not so sure about Plague..., it hurts my voice whenever I try to sing along to that.

I referred to the song "Gog / Magog (In Bromine Chambers)" by Peter Hammill from hids album "In Camera".
