(I repeat) BTW, do you folks know the distorted voice at the intro to Black Sabbath's "Paranoid?" (You know, the "I am iron man" part), and the distorted vocal intro to Crimson's 21st Century Schizoid Man? I was thinking of them after I wrote that post yesterday -- do you think they may have inspired, or set the precedent, for today's extreme metal metal "growling" vocals? Did Crimson give birth to those vocal techniques?
 What do you think, music fans?

It's possible... I would say that extreme metal vocal styles (both death metal's guttural growling and black metal's higher shrieking) evolved from different takes on thrash metal's agressive vocal styles (after all, pretty much all early death and black metal bands have a very sizeable amount of thrash influence in their sound and could easily be considered thrash had it not been for the evolution of their own genres), which in turn were largely inspired by punk.
That's just my opinion though.

And given that John Lydon was a self confessed VDGG & King Crimson fan... and so on, and so back in time; to turn the 'inspiration line' the other way, how will current death metal vocalising inspire future generations? Will we end up with a timeline stretching from 1969's 'Court Of The Crimson King' to 2012's 'Several Species Of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together In A Cave And Vomiting' to 2020's 'Music From Airport Lavatories'?

By the way, I love the fact a thread regarding black metal singers sits happily in the "Discussions not related to music" forum

WHERE is the God that guides my hand?

WHEN will I find what I grope for?
WHO is going to teach me?

You've just had a heavy session of electroshock therapy, and you're more relaxed than you've been in weeks.
