The agression, intensity I guess. I dispised it at first but it eventually grew on me. I see it as normal as any other way of singing. Most people think that it is rediculous and that Death Metal bands have no skill.
Random Person- "I could just bang a trash can and scream at the top of my lungs and it would be as good as (whatever death metal band we were talking about)".
Not true, it takes much skill and talent to do gutteral vocals and not sound like and idiot. I use to say said line all the time before I saw a metal show for the first time (Nile, Hypocrisy, Decapitated, ect), now I kick myself for saying it.Try it yourself. Record yourself singing death metal, then compare it to and actual artist. You will be able to tell the difference.
