you do not know as much as me about any of this

To show the development of the theme in a sense

Minimalized to show the process of grief

What remains after the wind blows away the stubble of autumn

That's on Requiem - Fortissimo, the death metal album

the singer needs to stop sliding his voice around

if you autotune this guy this would be great

But the same motif is on Mezzo Forte however

He's a classically trained tenor afaik

I have a good ear for this

I privately think a bass-baritone would be more appropriate but I think he's a great singer

maybe he is doing it on purpose

likely he is

I'm not saying you are wrong, I'm just saying it's pointless to start a battle about everything

like fuck does every internet conversation have to be war

do you or any other people in this chat have any idea how much you could learn from me, and how much it would directly and indirectly benefit your life, if you actually heard me out for a change?

in the last 15 minutes I have told you enough to permanently improve your whole family's financial future

I am so generous with you people

Actually most of the albums seem to concern misery, suffering and its culmination into the dark night of the soul, with glimpses of the light of God shining through the rusted armour of the faith

It's very hopeful music in spite of being crushing

Heavy

one thing I like about the virgin black guy's voice is his vibrato is high frequency

although considering the pace of these songs he could probably use slower vibrato and add to the heaviness of the song, but then it would blend too much with the guitars

but on that basis I think he has a quite agile voice he is itching to show off

Perhaps he sings a bit much toward his strengths

Yeah

When I saw them live as an opener for Opeth (they're much better than Opeth) people were yelling stuff like AYY PLAY SOME METAL YA FUCKEN SOFTCOCK

you know I had a voice teacher who unironically thought vibrato was pitch change?

.

that comes across like riding a bike without a tube

the mechanics are just all wrong

she actually thought vibrato in voice had an interval

yeah, I was blown away

that was pretty much when I stopped ever taking music lessons for anything ever

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AcDyDaFhCI liking this a lot

yeah he bottoms out his voice in this track, he really has a "bitchy" voice to be singing this kind of music but it works

I feel like an additional classical voice would really improve this, something more dramatic than his, but I can't decide if a baritone or a real dramatic alto would be better

kinda leaning towards alto because that would really remove it from the manlybaconbeard category, but having no women would avoid a lot of pitfalls of its own

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=reOLeLX0Q9U through this song there is a real low bass with a german sounding voice, I feel like a guy like that harmonizing with the lead would be good for Virgin Black

incidentally i think the guitarist is a woman

and i think there's a session female vocalist
