It's the kind of music that is supposed to be beyond the conventions of normal music, so I think that it needs a voice that sounds gritty and guttural, and less appealing than the rest of the music world.

I've heard this a lot with the band Mastodon. That the lead singer sounds awful. He sounds like a death metal singer, doesn't he? Isn't that what they were going for...?

I wouldn't really say godawful, just another boring metal band.

No, it just isn't appealing. I don't hear grit with James. I hear a guy with a really annoying voice trying to sing instead of shout. He has a metal voice, and he should stick to his strengths.

He certainly doesn't have a metal voice any longer.

Aw, I see. Well, actually, his voice is suited now towards other genres, wouldn't you agree with that...?
