Artists that do not use pitch correction
 
I've been heavily put off most music since the 2000s due to the high use of Auto-Tune (and similar software) in the industry. When recording music by myself I use my natural voice (sometimes with reverb, no other effects), and it sounds like the pre-1998 singing. Virtually all pop music now uses pitch correction, but do any of these alternative bands use Autotune on a regular basis from what you know? My dad says no, but some have become suspicious compared with their stuff from the 90s if around then.

*Foo Fighters
*Anathema
*Green Day
*Counting Crows
*Billy Bragg
*Hayseed Dixie
*Evanescence
*Wilco
*Nine Inch Nails
*Tristania

Among some of these possibly not using correction, what are some other artists who don't? I'm interested to see what modern stuff can be like without.

if foo fighters are atop your list of bands doing something good, light it on fire immediately

You get that 99% of modern music doesn't use autotune, right? You get that there is stuff to he found outside of mainstream pop, right?

But, just for the fun of it, enter most of the music on my phone (not everything, I've got more on my laptop too)

I take back the bit about WISK not being autotuned. Frownland beats dead animals with stolen whack-a-mole hammers while screaming a french translation of the Panamania national anthem backwards while slapping his friend in the face with a sockeye salmon filled with screwdrivers and used heroine needles before overdubbing "anal breathing", then copying everything over to the magnetic sound strip on the side of a roll of 8mm film, which he runs through the washingmachine and beatboxes to and runs the whole thing through autotune to make his music.

Are there any well known artists who still don't use the software, though?

DeadChannel 06-28-2015 04:59 AM

Yes. Look at my list.

I meant artists who have had single hits. There were some popular alternative artists on your list, some of whom have popular albums, but not many which currently top the song charts.

You said "I've been heavily put off most music since the 2000s due to the high use of Auto-Tune", though, without accounting for the fact that not all music is in the top 40 charts. You said that you've been put off by most music, even though the vast majority of stuff being done today does not use autotune.

Also, who actually gives a **** about the top 40? Besides all the people who actually give a **** about the top 40, of course.

Anything mainstream will have some sort of sound editing.. Welcome to the modern music industry.
