[Lester B. Flat]

I saw this ad posted by a young woman on craigslist and it gave me a chuckle.

"I am looking to join a SERIOUS band. My main influences are bands such as Tool, Opeth, Bloodbath, Necrophagist, Nile, and many more. I have a brutal/deep yet articulate, clear sound when I growl. I will also do clean vocals if necessary, but primarily death vocals. I have my own equipment, quite a bit of jamming experience and a little bit of experience playing in front of (small) audiences. No, I have no sample recordings of myself... You'll just have to invite me for an audition."

I don't know if being articulate or clear would be considered attributes when growling.

Then you aughta rent the docu, "Metal: A Headbanger's Journey".... That guttural metal growl from a woman is getting more and more sought after....

I guess we have to give her credit for not calling it singing. She seems to know the score there. I'm assuming this style of vocalising is intended to sound like the devil or Satan (if there were such a being) . Does anyone really know what Satan's voice is like? I mean, he could sound like Trueman Capote, couldn't he? Would it rock the death metal world if Satan had squeaky voice a lisp?
