entertainment: finish your lightbulbs.

I've never personally heard anodised aluminium making a noise, but I'm fairly sure it wouldn't be a horrible screeching sound even during the hottest part of the smelting process.

So why does Metal refer to music ruined by screeching. Eyes Set To Kill are a perfect example of this, the lyrics aren't bad, and the female vocals are pretty good, but then you have the 'scream vocalist'. I'm not sure how you can ever describe screaming like you've just been kicked in the gonads as a 'vocal', although if someone kicked me in the man fruits I'd be pretty vocal about it.

The brilliant thing is that the guy ruined his voice by their second album, at which point they should have realised that perhaps screaming should be phased out in the 3rd album, but no, they find another volunteer to 'lend their vocal talents'. An example of these light bulb munchers ruining music is below for your 'pleasure'


I wonder if the US military have ever considered releasing a CD of their 'Enhanced Interrogations', I imagine they could get some pretty good 'Scream Vocals' after a session at Guantanamo Bay.

If, for some bizarre reason you'd like to buy their first album follow this link, I believe I get money if you do ;¬)
