SCAR SYMMETRY SHOULD’VE JUST HIRED THIS GUY

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009 at 11:00am by

File this under “YouTube Vocal Covers” actually gone right [thanks: MS reader Zoker]. Sure, the guy doesn’t hit every high note, but he does a damn fine job overall with both the growls and the clean singing parts. The guy’s clearly got ability and I’m presuming he’s available for the half the price of the current two SS vocalists. Ya win some, ya lose some.

    He looks like a dick… Why don’t you post about this instead ?

    30 sec samples of the whole new Slayer album, who cares about vocal covers, especially if the guy can sing ?

    It is fair to note that this guy is not an enormous tool like most of the kids who post these vocal covers. He is actually self aware and probably would not make me want to punch babies if I were in the same room as him. Is it a coincidence that he also does justice to the material? Probably not.

      However, upon further inspection I have discovered him to currently be in a band called “Chaos Before Creation” or “CBC” for short. My band is called “the Coffin Birth Conspiracy” or “CBC” for short. Motherfuckers always be stealin’ my thunder.

        Man are you going to be pissed off when you hear about the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation…

          It is also the the conference I was in when I played basketball in high school. I need to pick less used initials!

      Not the best I’ve heard by any stretch, but he is damn good. Cracks me up when he does the “clean” vocals.

  • Elpants

    His cleans suck

    Not bad… sounds good, especially compared to the others that have been posted.

  • Brandon

    This guy isn’t half bad… his growls dont have the same power as Chirstian’s did, and his clean vocals up until the last is pitched just a bit lower.. but they aren’t lacking the drive and power like his growling. He could definitely take the place of the other two guys fronting that band. It’d be like the movie “Rock Star” come true!

  • alliaphagist

    his death growls are really good. His cleans aren’t, but they’d be passable for a live metal show I guess.

    Anyone know what voice effects he’s using to harmonise the clean vocals? Cheers

    • Gerry

      It’s me, and I literally recorded a seperate track for clean harmonies

  • http://www.hatespire.com Nymik

    Or is that just backing vocals? hahaha

  • Fufkin

    A damn sight better than a lot of singers I’ve heard in signed metal bands.

  • Brian \m/(-_-)\m/

    guys got skills. and doesnt seem like a douche. and i like his trivium covers. good find

  • cpo

    nice basement

  • mo biscuits

    FAIL, but seriously B- for the effort. christian cant be touched, IMO he is the second best metal singer behind russel allen

    • CYN1C

      Fucking spot-on! Russell Allen is the best metal vocalist hands down.

  • Justin Sane

    you can tell his screams are weak, since he’s got the mic turned all the way up, hence having to back up 3 feet when singing compared to growls…

  • dudeiknowmetal

    There are wicker baskets…in shelves. He…has wicker baskets in shelves. Brutal.
