- Black Metal is more than just standard screaming. There are a lot of interesting styles of singing in the genre. Let's see what it has to offer!

I think many people kinda misunderstood the video here. It says 'the most unique...", which doesn't necessarily mean "the best". Gaahl is a fantastic vocalist, but there are others more unique than him. Imo, the vocalist of Inquisition sucks ass, but yeah, he's unique.
Yes, it's getting harder and harder for people to read and think at the same time
Gaahl's voice usually has a ton of effects on it
Gaahl is unique in that his voice is piss weak but people think he's awesome... Pest on the other hand had a unique "mouth full of worms" sound that had some kick to it...
@@Farvann Yeah because they rush into seizing every "opportunity" to critisize and cancel. Thinking is tough for some people, throwing shit is the easy way.
@@narcissus79 yeah I much prefer Pest. His vocals are basically the quintessential black metal rasp if you ask me.
Personally, I love the singer from Summoning. Sounds like whispering trees, is beautiful.
but summoning has two singers
Both vocalists are good, but I love Protector’s screams, especially in the more recent albums where he’s somehow singing and screaming at the same time. Fuck if I know how to do that.

What was the song for #4?
Thank you!
What's the song in No.1?
@@unbidmuffin
It's "Dunkle Romantik" from their "Mit Raben und Wölfen", if I'm not mistaken.
@@adam.e.nowakowski
If I remember correclty, it's "Der Halbtoten Dichters Schein‑Existenz" from album "Auerauge Raa Verduistering".
Ruins of Beverast vocals are also very unique, even album to album
true
Protector from Summoning is my favourite. His mix of black metal screaming and clean singing is one of the most beautiful things that i ever heard in music.
Early Cradle of Filth is legendary!
I think my favourite would be ONIELAR, both in Bethlehem and in Darkened Nocturn Slaughtercult. Her voice is so unique to me as well, with this desperate screaming and howling she does
Best female black metal singer there is
The anguish and rage in her vocals is incredible. For me the best singer in the genre, I enjoy her and she defines the genre of this particular music.
And she's proof that Satan cures cancer.
Bethlehem - lebe dich leer, is a great album
Fuck yesssss I have to see bethlehem live sadly I’m in the US so I’ll probably have to travel but it will be worth it
Ole Luk's vocals for Afsky sounds like he is absolutely shredding his vocal chords, definitely on of my favorites
I love Belphegor’s Helmuth vocals especially live. These lion like growls scratch my brain differently.
Nice list, but not mentioning Attila Csihar feels off... Yes, many would say Mayhem is overrated or whatever, but I think that Attila's approach is unique - especially considering how early they began recording together. The live presence of Attila is also something else; the chanting, whispering and laughter all add up to it.
I agree! I think Attila’s vocals are unique and very recognizable aswell! And in DMDS last track DMDS the chanting is so unique
Yeah for me the best Mayhem singer. Always get a lot of hate for it, but I just feel most connected to it
He is crazy at Sunn O))) too
Yeah, I don't understand how you can mention Abbath, Nergal and Dani Filth but not mention Atilla... he dis did different vocals on one of the most influential bm records ever
Attila is an mazing singer and performer. Had the chance to have a few beers with him at a bar after their concert and he told me a lot about the vocal style and the influences. Such a great person too
My favorite black metal vocalist is Garm. He is able to do the black metal shrieks like on Nattens Madrigal and soothe you like on Bergtatt and Kveldssanger.
Preach dude. I’ve cranked Garm for years
Weird that Attila Csihar isn't here, as he has very recognisable style of singing - mad and expressive mixture between clean vocal, throat singing and scream, usually with pretty free approach to rhythm.
Neige from Alcest. You can argue that their stuff nowadays isnt black metal anymore, but he has a quite unique screaming style. The most extreme Ive heard of him was Peste Noire - Dueil Angoisseus. These vocals are absolutly insane and very unique.
But even his more "regular" screaming is very recognisable. I instantly recognised his vocals in Saor - Forgotten Paths without knowing that he is featured in this album.
And another recommendation for very unique Black Metal vocals is Ellende. Ellende does most of the time pretty normal Black Metal vocals. But sometimes they do really unique stuff. I never heard anything like Ellende - Scherben the part after the Niezsche quote:
ua-cam.com/video/kJFMh4OwkYk/v-deo.html
Every second scream there is so unique to me. It doesnt even sound that human anymore. It sounds like a totured wild animal. I fucking love it.
On .neon by Lantlos he sounds sooo good, almost chilling.
I agree his voice is badass in peste noire and in alcest. Yes I love both some people only like one or the other.
That is one of the best tracks in the genre, ever. Still sends shivers up my spine even thinking about it.
@@manfredmar THAT WAS NEIGE?
Lifelover does the high pitched shrieking and also the post punk style, pretty unique
Or used to do.. rip
@@rytkosenjussi As far as i know Kim is still alive
@@rytkosenjussiKim is still very much alive and has at least one active band Hypothermia.
@@ketsuppi1984i think consider suicide is his most recent focus
@@rytkosenjussi Kim is alive and well, I know the guy. He works as a chef nowadays and are working on a new Hypothermia album
I love the sound of Quorthon! And if you want that rough high pitched screams: Depressive Years. Especially Suffering Mental Illness is great with the basic intro riff.
I think you and me are the only ones to mention Bathory haha
I was scrolling through the comments and you are right lol. Nobody also mentions/knows Schizophrenic Psychopath from Depressive Years.
@@ek6648 lol yeah. Quorthon to me will always be the image of black metal. Even his vikings years are blackened. Man did a lot and could have done a lot more if he was still here.
@@slimshadow49 I always wondered what his art could have been today.... He's dead already 19 years.....
I second that. He managed to sound demonic at times. When he started he was very unique. Maybe not now, but in 1984-1987 he really sounded like no one else!
We called Inquisition vocals already in the late 90's or early 2000's as "grandma vox" - Thanks for including & tagging my Inquisition interview btw! Much appreciated.
Was suprised to not see Malefic of Xasthur here. I always thought his vocals were some of the most depraved and depressive in all of Black Metal.
That sound comes beyond grave!! 💀💀💀
Morean from Dark Fortress is criminally underrated. He has insane range both stylistically and tonally.
I came here to say exactly this! Dark Fortress is one of my absolute favorite bands. So bummed that they called it quits, but at least they continue to live on through Alkaloid, Triptykon and Rootbrain.🤘
@@DeanBothaMusic Absolutely, beyond stoked for the new Alkaloid!
I love mortuus from marduk/funeral mist. He’s definitely not insanely unique, but I can tell his vocals from anyone else’s, and I think he made Marduk better as a result. Also his lines that he speaks, have this chanting, almost preaching kind of style to them.
He's really good. I cite him as main inspiration for my own vocals
Mortuus is the first person who came to mind for me! He has his completely own expression and sound
I have to agree, his name was the first that came to my mind, but I may be biased. His wheezes in Funeral Mist's Maranatha and on Marduk's Wormwood still give me chills.
Yes, I agree. Marduk's Mortuus is great. Alot better than Legion that was before him. I personally prefer Joachim af Grave who sang on "Those of the Unlight" and "Opus Nocturne". Really great singing.
@@michaelkarlsson5966 He was great! Have you heard his contributions on Cold mouth prayer? Incredible stuff
I think ihsahn also deserves a mention. Eclipse and anthem have easily one of the most recognizable vocals in bm
Does not. Maybe as a blueprint of the most generic BM vocal style ever.
@@paravan2000 Ihsahn taught all self trained black metal vocalists how to combine head voice falsettos with aggression and durability. It's the best I can explain it and it's why Ihsahn deserve to be on such a list.
@@Vasilis_Metalhead He is influental, not unique
@@paravan2000 perhaps early on, sure, but the latter emperor albums show a voice that stands out, at least to me, especially with his amazing enunciation.
I recommend Stworz: Pagan Black Metal from Poland. the singer also has an iconic voice
Stworz ist great Mój kraj nazywa się Śmierć stays one of my favorite albums. He really mastered the "pissed yet very emotional polish dude" sound :D
Never heard??
Vocalists that were overlooked here.
- Mikko Aspa (Clandestine Blaze/Deathspell Omega)
- Nebiros (Malign/Ofermod/Mephorash)
- Emperor Magus Caligula (Dark Funeral/Hypocrisy/God Among Insects)
- Arioch/Mortuus (Marduk/Funeral Mist/Triumphator)
- ICS Vortex (Dimmu Borgir/Borknagar/Arcturus) His clean vocals make you instantly recognize that its him singing.
- Hoest (Taake/Ragnarok) Can't say I've ever heard anyone else sound like him.
- Nattefrost (Carpathian Forest/Nattefrost)
- Graav (Armagedda/Lönndom/LIK)
- Acerbus (Ondskapt/IXXI)
- Maniac (Mayhem/Skitliv)
Agreee mortuus.. the best There is
ICS Vortex is really good, his stuff in Arcturus is great, namely the albums Arctuarian and Sideshow Symphonies imo
- Legion ( Marduk )
Came here just to mention Graav. His vocals, along with Nocturno Culto’s, are the epitome of the Black Metal style. It doesn’t get more grim than those two. They both sound incredibly natural and authentic, as if they’re not performing, and I believe it’s partly due to their delivery and not just their sound - very powerful.
The other vocalists you mentioned are great also. I’ll throw in Torog of Behexen on By the Blessing of Satan specifically: utterly and hellishly insane and grim in their own right.
Nattefrost went lately really weak live. I saw them at Brutal Assault 2019 and it was quite big dissapoitment. Luckily after their gig Dead Congregation played really awesome.
Valfar deserves to be mentioned. He does both the typical Black Metal style vox and also the epic cleans.
Totally
RIP
It is my understanding that Valfar didn't do the cleans, but invited Steinarson and Cosmocrator to do them.
Let us never forget, it was Nocturno Culto with Panzerfaust who gave us one of the most unique vocals on a BM album ever. After 25 years I still don't know if I like it or not. But this is a classic I will listen to again and again. Fuck!
How Garm didn't make this list is criminal. He is unique even within his own material.
I don't know if this counts but Woods of Ypres's Aaron Gold had a very disctinct and recognizable voice. I know Woods isn't strictly black metal (even when they started and had more of a raw type of sound), but it's certainly BM-adjacent.
I quite like the vocals in Aara (Switzerland) mostly quite shrill and high pitched, but the vocals are sort of behind the instrumentation in the mix, which i think works pretty well
Dornenreich, not really black metal these days but I find the vocals exceptional. Another one I love would be Emptiness, in their album Nothing but the Whole. Crazy good.
Really love the vocals on the first three albums.
Both great. Fuck I hope I see Dornenreich at Prophecy Fest this year. Got my ticket just waiting till the last minute to get my plane ticket cause of some personal bullshit. Fucking life.
I really love Mystifiers Vocals actually, they contribute a lot to their occult sound, I love it.
Not sure whether one can call them unique, but they are certainly ancient.
And I think Dead does also qualify as unique, because we can all recognize him
That Goetia album was pretty epic. My first touch of them. Really dark stuff.
@@rytkosenjussi all their stuff is good, and much of it straight up masterpieces. I also recommend their demos fyi
A little surprised Attila Csihar wasn't on here somewhere. His range is just all over the place and, for me, easily distinguishable from other artists. Maybe I'm just partial to him since Mayhem were one of the first Black Metal bands I heard over 25 years ago. Damn...I'm getting old lol
EDIT: Forgot to add ICS Vortex. His screams are pretty basic stuff but his clean singing gives me goosebumps EVERY time. You have to admit, his cleans are pretty damn unique. And this might sound a bit weird....but I've always wanted to hear him and Bjork do some weird vocal thing together.
Stawrogin of Odraza has also some insane deep grunts he is able to perform really well during live shows too. Besides the names mentioned in the video, I would say that Attila Csihar, Arioch/Mortuus, Onielar and Mika Luttinen have unmistakable vocals.
I'm surprised you didn't mention Dave Hunt from Anaal Nathrakh. He's pretty unique too, able to sing clean operatic vocals (even falsetto) and screams interchangeably.
Farvann I'm surprised that Neige from Peste Noire/Amesoeurs/Alcest wasn't highlighted. His screeching popping vocals are extremely unique. You did mention Peste Noire, but the sample you provided was of Famine who has an entirely different sound and style. Neige is one of my favorite vocalists.
Yess, especially Dueil Angoisseus is absolut madness.
Because Alcest is an Emo band
His best vocals were with Lantlos
@@milkweedreflectionsalcest is blackgaze
@@callme_A_K that's what he meant)))
best vocal performance of all time is on Peste Noire's La Sanie des siècles - having both Neige and Famine trading off in the song Deuil Angoisseux is probably the most insane metal vocal moments of all time.
I personally think that Moonblood's vocalist is also very recognizable. Also B.S.O.D uses some very experimental vocals in Grausamkeit (monkey sounds at the beginning of Kratze off the Pink Green demo lol)
Exactly what i was looking for. Glad you appreciate MB and bsod!
Let's not go praising nazis or fascists though.
Praising the art and the person for creating it is NOT the same as endorsing or agreeing with their beliefs. For example, I like Kreator but their lyrics get on my nerves. Doesn't matter, still listen to them and enjoy their music very much ! Why not separate the art from the artist ?
@@MardyBum100291 seperate the art from the artist
@@MardyBum100291 poseur.
I think the vocal of Master's Hammer is really aggressive for their album "Ritual".
Ritual is definitely a masterpiece.
Totally agree, one of the best and first.
and unique!!
Ow yes, i totally forgot 😬
Franca Storm is an amazing vocalist. I personally think his style was at its most unique on their second album "Jilemnice Occultist". A lot of weird voices there, coughing and so on. Absolutley brilliant!
One of my favorite black metal bands and experience with "howling" type vox is Daemon of Limbonic Art.
So glad you brought up Rainer Landfermann, I heard him for the first time on Anal Nathrakh's album Passion, and I never managed to find out who did those absolutely insane vocals. It's one of my favorite songs purely because of his vocal style and how batshit insane he sounds, I absolutely adore it.
yes!! I always found that song underwhelming until I listened to bethlehem... now it's one of my favourite anaal nathrakh songs
Cool list.
I would just add my honorable mention. Spellgoth from Horna. Awesome vocal. \m/
Great content as always!
I was waiting for Landfermann so much. One of my favourites, such as Nocturno Culto, Thomas G. Fisher, Quorthon and probably Hoath Torog. Thank you for your content, Farvann. You're special
I think you're not overtly fond of Marduk and probably Funeral Mist, but I love Mortuus' weird, wet, gurgling, guttural rasp amid the more standard fare. I love the guy from Ruins of Beverast, a German guy, one man band, who has classic BM vocals but interspersed with deep, baritone clean vocals, haunting death-like gasps and hissing whispers. In terms of weird, I think Attila has some of the most bizarre vocals, but that's an obvious one. As a fan of Inquisition, check out a London based BM outfit called Abgott; see what you think of their album Fizala and the undead frog in the throat vocals.
Yes Mortuus/Arioch is insane.
Much prefer Legion - he was pretty distinctive.
How did you post this comment 3 WEEKS ago?!
Mortuus and Attila are in a league of their own. Both of them are top tier black metal vocalists.
@@lexbeltran1354those are my absolute faves of black metal. So distinctive in their sound.
I appreciate what you do, plz keep yer thoughts flowing & camera going.
I always agree 100% with you. Love your videos!
I love the howling shrieks of German atmospheric black metal band Ultha. They're doing great stuff!
I miss Legion a ton! Erik to me had one of the most recognizable voices in all BM. A true master of belching forth demons.
Same
Sakis Tolis of Rotting Christ
J.J. of Harakiri for the Sky
Sakis style and unique intonation is recognizable instantly.
And J.J. has a more typical style, however you can instantly recognize his voice whether it's Karg, Seagrave, HFTS, or any other features like in Ellende's song.
It's good to see that that Berserker guy from the movie Clerks got his break finally, doing vocals for Inquisition.
Thanks a lot for this comprehensive list. I agree on many of them, though i did miss Dødheimsgard's Vicotnik. His voice on kronet til konge gets me every time - it's so uncanny and complex... 🤘🏽
Graf from Psychonaut 4 has one of the my favorite and unique vocal styles. The wailing and shrieking is legitimately chilling to listen to
Damn right!!
Most typical DSBM vocals in existence
@@memedaddy793myb but they are sooooooo good
@@memedaddy793Very typical but perfectly delivered
@@memedaddy793 what?!?!?!? 🤣🤣 I have to respectfully disagree
Nice T-Shirt Man the Great Mystifier!!!! Very good vídeo!
Just started the video and I'm already digging Urfaust. Thanks Farvann :)
Seems like you missed the Urfaust cover I uploaded a few weeks ago ;)
@@Farvann I just watched it haha, pretty fuckin awesome dude 🤘
Franta Štorm from Masters Hammer surely has a very unique twisted shrieky howl, which coupled with the old style Czech lyrics is an unmistakable identity.
I would say that Mirai Kawashima's vocals are also really unique. Especially since he has so many different styles of singing in his songs
Yeah, he rules!
Depressive Years - Inmense Emotional Pain
is a masterpiece that i bet Farvann would like.
shining vocals sound really calming and strong for me which makes it unique for me
lmao i wrote this before watching the whole video, i was suprised you would mention it
So glad Famine from KPN made it on the list, if even briefly, he has perhaps my favorite BM vocals, so unique, with his high pitched shrieks more common in their older material and the style mentioned in this video, where every word is almost spat out horrifically. Really makes you feel like a medieval French peasant
Peste Noire - Dueil Angoisseus
For me some of the most unique vocals in Black Metal is from Messiah from Arkona (I had an opportunity to play with band on one stage) and Nantur Aldaron from Sacrilegium. I recommend to listen albums like:
Arkona - Imperium
Arkona - Zeta Reticuli: A Tale about Hatered and Total Enslavement
Arkona - Lunaris
Sacrilegium - Wicher
Check out Alexander Norfgaren’s vocals from the Fluerety: A darker Shade of Evil demo (1994), piercing high pitch screams. Previously from Dodheimsgarde, Aldrahn influenced a lot of the singer’s styles you mentioned with his shouts. Garm from early Ulver and later has a versatile singling style.
His singing destroyed his vocal cords aswell
Their debut Min tid skall komme is a brilliant album
this was a great watch, thanks for the inspiration. have you heard sortsind from denmark? don't know if they would qualify as unique vocal wise but thought they were worth mentioning
I know they're well known, but no Varg, no Satyr, no Attila Csihar, no Garm, no Gaahl etc.? They're still pretty unique in their vocals.
Anyway, Rainer Landfermann on Dictius Te Necare did the most insane vocals I've ever heard in BM. Glad he's back with a solo album, and still can do it.
Not having Attila Csihar on this list is the biggest fail on the list... I like the list, but Attila is the most distinctive vocalist in BM history
Satyr has hella evil vocals, early albums are the best
Regarding Odraza - their vocalist (Stawrogin) has a quite unique growling sound that is more prominient in on the Odraza's second album.
Also famine's other style of vocals is quite unique, too
I think it also would be nice to mention the vocals on Behemoth's Grom, Pest on Gorgoroth's 1997 Under the Sign of Hell, Levifer - Tribute to the Supreme Beast, Pactum - Summa Imperii Satanae (pretty close to Pest's voice, but still worth to check/mention) and Varjoherra on Azaghal's Helvetin yhdeksän piiriä (specifically on Kun Aurinko Kuoli). Great video, thanks for sharing.
Best BM vocals for me:
1-Varg
2-Famine (Peste Noire)
3-Antichrist (Sarcófago)
4-Kim Carlsson
5-Nattramn (Silencer)
Pest from Gorgoroth, Particularly on Under the Sign of Hell, his clean singing is very convincing.
Erik Danielson hasn't been mentioned yet, I think I could pick him out from a crowd.
I love Pest
Pest is a GOAT.
Yeah Erik is in that sweet spot between "yeah this dude's singing BM vocals" and "this is such a weird harsh vocal"
@@friday26th True, he has a lot of his voice in his screams, which I can't imagine is good for your vocals chords but he still somehow sounds great after 20+ years!
Amazing! You should do a dsbm list as well I would definitely put Graff from Psychonaut 4🖤
Mephorash ! All around they are recognisable . From music to vocals . The music has a cold energy no other black metal band has succeeded to give me that feeling . Worth checking out🤘🏽
Top 3 to me:
1 - Immortal;
2 - Behemoth;
3 - Silencer.
I loved your T-shirt!
Hail Mystifiel!
I've always thought Dagon from Inquisition had some super unique vocals that nobody else quite does, glad you and others hear it!
Nah that pedophile sucks
I think everyone knows they're unique, it just so happens they're also shit 😂 he sounds like a lobotomized squidward being forced to endure CBT
I think dagon kinda copied abbaths style imo..
@@rytkosenjussiTrue, but Dagon took it to the extreme.
Isnt he a nonce?
Before watching I wanna say that Varg was pretty unique on the first albums. Nobody sounded like that before he did it
Missed Vintersorg.
Thanks for the video.
Corvus! egal ob mit Horna / Korgonthurus/ (ehem.) Totalselfhatred oder jetzt ja auch Ymir bleibt für mich die Stimme im BM die am ehesten in Richtung Wahnsinn geht. Und wenn man Corvus 1x live gesehen hat weiß man auch genau warum. Ich hab ihn das letzte mal 2015 auf `m UTBS gesehen es war einfach genial! . Besonders weil er damals noch 4 Songs als Zugabe mit Horna live gespielt hatte. Da hat sich wahrlich die Hölle aufgetan!.
Dani Filth is definitely one of the most unique. As far as my favorites? Young Shagrath from Dimmu's early days (Enthrone Darkness and Spiritual Black era) is probably the best black metal vocals, IMO. Also, Emperor Magus Caligula (Dark Funeral), Jon Nödtveidt (Dissection), Abbath (Immortal), Mikko Aspa (Deathspell Omega).
Already nonexistant Dark Fortress, i enjoy also vocals of Watain and look up for Hail Spirit Noir ;)
Fluss from Aara is pretty spectacular. Her high pitch screams, while typical of black metal are quite unique, calm and haunting. Just saying! Their Triade albums are amazing
She's amazing.
Agreed
I never see anyone talk about Angr, but I’m a huge fan of their vocals utilized there.
My all time favorite Blackmetal band is Helrunar. The voice is maybe standard blackmetal stuff, but I like their style (I prefer the old albums).
I really enjoy Déhà's work on albums like 'Cruel Words' and 'A Fleur de Peau'. I don't think that those albums may qualify as "black metal" for the purists (more post/black or shoegaze perhaps, though I don't think that really matters) but his vocal range is quite unique. He has an incredible amount of bands, projects and collaborations going on by the way, for anyone interested in checking him out. The other one that brings joy to my ears is Dany Tee from "Los Males del Mundo". Their album "Descent Towards Death" is incredible, especially for the intro from "The seventh seal" film.
Drapsnatt has great howling vocals. Forgotten Woods are another one. In the Woods, "Heart of the Ages" is probably my fave BM album. Masterpiece.
one of my favorites too
It's nice to see you mentioning Odraza.
Oh I thought you wouldn't mention Famine from Peste Noire, but I'm happy to see it on honorable mentions
I'm a bit disappointed Gaahl didn't make it to the list. He does both amazing screams and a lot of very deep, low clean vocals as well in his current band. Personally I find his style being very recognizable.
Yes, he has one of the weirdest styles in BM
Yah, he should be at any list)
He's got "deep throat" skills
@@King_Conan jokes about "the most evel man on Earth" never get old)
Bro his vocals are lame. Pest and Hat for life
I think my favorite is Paul Ledney from Havohej and Profanatica, and also Imperial from Krieg. Both very distinctive and recognizable.
Good call. He has a very grim & hateful style. Next Profanatica will be AWESOME
Jens Rydén's scorching vocals on Sheol totally blow my ears.
Farvann, since you enjoy the silencer 'hysteric-menopause' style of vocals you might also want to search for a greek underground band called Ψ.Χ. If you verbalise these two greek letters in a row it sounds like 'ψυχή' which means 'soul'. It is more of a tongue -in -cheek, troll project, very provocative lyricks, no live performances, unknown artists behind the project, all the good occult stuff that is always nice to have in BM.
I'd personally include Mikko Aspa as well, and possibly Haela from Liturgy
ALN from Mizmor has a really wide vocal range, from unique sounding pained screams, to deathcore-esque inhaled growling, and even Ring Wraith shrieks
Yes! Awesome response. If I recall correctly, in an interview he basically talked about how fascinating he found the human voice and what it's capable of. Apparently he listens to everything from Enya to indigenous throat singing from other countries.
Just nitpicking, but I think inhales are more of slam thing than a deathcore thing. 99%+ of deathcore vocalists exclusively exhale. Also, I think Mizmor’s “Ring Wraith” shrieks are inhaled and definitely approach whistle territory. He’s a great vocalist.
That is some of the most boring shit today. Sorry.
Great list. Dictius Te Necare is probably my favorite BM album for vocals, but I think my favourite BM singer is Onielar (Darkened Nocturn Slaughtercult / Bethlehem) : she has a unique voice and his work on the two last Bethlehem albums is really good.
I really feel the same on Cradle of Filth.
Beautiful unique.
A part of lifetime
Didn't think you'd put Dani Filth in here, and a worthy add to the list. No matter how much 'trve' black metal i listen, 'Dusk... And Her Embrace' will always be in my top 3 best albums ever. Great stuff here, subbed!
And vempire ep was pure fire.. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@rytkosenjussi And Principle of Evil made flesh is awesome, ''Forest whispers my name'' classic.
@@lopolik but i liked more vempire. But for first album its solid, symphonic and good black metal.
Have you listened to "Los males del mundo"? I think that their vocalist does a proper rendition to Dani´s style but with his own improptus.
@@JGerFuentes I'll give it a go, thanks!
Gleb Sysoyev from Grima and Second to Sun to me is single-handedly the most unique sounding vocalist, his screams are so high-pitched and long it's chilling, almost like tinnitus sometimes
I really like him. I used to listen STS the black album daily when it came. 😈
I agree. Also his vocals on Ultar are brilliant as well
You know, I listen to a lot music and rarely research the bands. I hadn’t realized that Grima (one of my favorite BM bands), StS, and Ultar share a vocalist. I can hear it now, but I thought it was different people doing similar styles.
Another vocalist I would say is a little similar to him would be Ken Romlin from Mist of Misery and Night Crowned. His highs are insane.
@@tevildo9383 to hear Glebs vocal range in all its glory, Ultars studio session of Kadath is a must see ua-cam.com/video/utG3kMfRQYs/v-deo.html
Great channel
Nice list, I hadn't heard of a few of these. My personal favourite is Vulnus from the band Sjodogg.
I was sure you would mention Emperor and Ihsahn
yes, ihsahn has a unique voice with high pitch screaming, and clean singing.
My favourite singer definitely is Mortuus/Arioch (Marduk/Funeral Mist) followed by Naas Alcameth.
Mortuus/Arioch is awesome! Even when he performs live he can do such an enormous range of different growling/screaming sounds, all absolutely chilling.
@@spookyspider1014 Absolutely - plus he can hold his screams/growls for plenty of seconds.
Really looking forward to Memento Mori.
Check out Furia (PL). They're not only black metal, they have their own, unique style. A song "Niezwykła nieludzka nieprzyzwoitość" is a masterpiece.
Maybe I'm on the outside looking in but my favorite extreme vocalist is Travis Ryan. I know Cattle Decap are deathgrind but i Believe there are elements of black in there.
Enjoyed the list and i now have some bands to check out 🥾🪖🥾
Stawrogin from Odraza for me has really good vocals also the high ones. I highly recommend to listen to their album Rzeczom. Great album
I’m in a coffin has pretty insane vocals, very emotionally tortured sounding.
Wrist deep in depression and finally happy especially show it
Endless Dismal Moan. One of the most unique voices in black metal, cannot forget that. Totally underrated.
Death odor, great song.
@@carlosalbertogaravitocamar5386 Yes, EDM is something realy unique, just wrote about it in my own post. There is nothing to compare it to, you literally hear and feel the pain, depression, hate, suffering, grief...no other vocals made me feel that way. It is a shame that EDM is so underrated, very few people know about it at all.
@@carlosalbertogaravitocamar5386 Awesome song
I would also mention the old singer from Enthroned (Lord Sabathan). I recognize him among hundreds.
I love the vocals from Lunar Aurora. Very dynamic
