If you would like some context to determine my approach towards making these lists, check out the ones I made on the first few pages.

I like making these, so...

Mikael Akerfeldt - growling
Geddy Lee - screaming
Maynard James Keenan - yelling
Chuck Schuldiner - screeching

They would be a metal barbershop quartet.

Wow, that would be something! I could totally see the boys doing an a capella soundtrack to the next Saw movie. Geddy's shriek; the only thing that keeps me up at night. "Freeze" from Vapor Trails should be on a horror soundtrack; Geddy's vocals during the bridge are spine-chilling. Oh yeah, maybe a little bit of Cygnus X-1 in there as well, yeah you know the part I'm talking about . How about 2012 Ged signing that to a live audience? Every nerve would be torn apart. It would actually be interesting to hear Cygnus played live this tour; it's my guess that if they chose to play that song, they would have some changes to make, since it's not exactly the most mature composition they ever wrote.  I'd like to see their take on it, even if they had to tune down two whole steps (that would make the highest note an F#, which Geddy could probably hit).

Yeah, considering they haven't played the piece in like, god knows how long. There's a couple of bootlegs clips on youtube from the late early 00's, I think? But really poor quality, not even worth it. But you got to give to Ged though. You know, after all these years he's still singing with so much passion and shredding that bass - they're playing better now, they've ever been. It's only natural that his voice would deteriorate at some point. The song itself though, what's your thoughts on it?
