Top 10 Best Metal Screamers
Mitchell Adam "Mitch" Lucker was an American musician and lead singer for the deathcore band Suicide Silence. Mitch, in my opinion, is the best deathcore vocalist, also followed by Phil Bozeman. R.I.P. Mitch.
The man who saved me from taking my life several times.
His high-pitched screams are pretty good.
Oliver Scott "Oli" Sykes is a British musician, best known as the lead vocalist of the band Bring Me the Horizon. He also founded the apparel company Drop Dead Clothing. Way more passion in his voice than lots of others on this list, including #1.
Singer from my favorite band, and he can scream like a madman!
He screams so awesomely! Like a god.
Bozeman is the best metal screamer ever. Period.
Hernan Hermida, also known as Eddie Hermida (born March 24, 1983 in Cabimas, Venezuela) is an American metal singer for the band Sucide Silence.
Matthew Charles Sanders, better known by his stage name M. Shadows, is an American musician, best known as the lead vocalist, songwriter and founding member of the American metalcore/alternative metal band Avenged Sevenfold. Matt just has something that makes his screams so pure. They give you so much energy if you hear them live, and that makes him the best screamer of our current era for me.
M. Shadows and Eric Adams - two very good vocalists, the best on this list.
His screams from Waking the Fallen were godlike.
Matthew "Matt" Tuck is a Welsh musician. He is the lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist in the Welsh emo/metalcore band Bullet for My Valentine. Kid, what do you mean by Matt doesn't scream? Do you even listen to Bullet for My Valentine? Earlier, he used to do amazing screams, but these days maybe his voice is deteriorating, and Jamie does most of the screaming. But even in these conditions, he does pretty great screams, and don't forget he plays guitar too, which makes it twice as difficult.
Great screamer. Just gives me chills.
Matt Tuck should be in first place. His screams are sick. Listen to Scream Aim Fire.
Jake is clearly the best screamer I've ever heard! He's able to combine very deep shouts and high screams like no one else! ABR was the first metalcore band I absolutely fell in love with. Indonesia is clearly my favorite song of all time, and it's the first one I actually screamed to.
ABR! M/
What! Jimmie Strimell deserves the number one spot, and I bet nobody's better than him. His screaming is so awesome that it makes you feel alive every time you listen to it. Just listen to the song Real and True by Dead by April, and you'll know what real screaming is all about. By the way, his clean singing rocks. He's not only the best screamer, but he is also the best singer.
I feel so bad he's not in Dead by April anymore. The band still rocks, but without Jimmie, it's incomplete. Lastly, I want to say thanks to Jimmie Strimell for such great songs that changed my life. I will always see you as a good friend. Everyone hail Jimmie Strimell!
Winston Thomas McCall is an Australian singer-songwriter and the lead vocalist of the metalcore band Parkway Drive and the hardcore punk band Rain Dogs. This guy should be number one! Why is he so low?
Austin Robert Carlile is an American former musician and current baseball coach from Pensacola, Florida. He is the former lead vocalist of Attack Attack! and Of Mice & Men. After leaving Of Mice & Men, he went to coach youth baseball in Costa Rica. Are you serious? Austin Carlile is the best screamer on this list. Sure, Oli Sykes is a good screamer, but nobody comes close to Austin. I mean, look and listen to all of the songs: My Understandings, Ohioisonfire, O.G. Loko, Second & Sebring. The list goes on.
Incredible vocalist in his own right, on top of a great screaming range that he uses across multiple styles of screaming.
Dude, this guy is a freaking legend. Are you kidding? Easily should be top 3.
Phil's an amazing vocalist with great technical ability!
No one can copy his amazing sound.
Any band that makes me memorize every vocal and every scream has my vote no matter what.
Chino Moreno is an American musician. He is best known as the lead vocalist and contributing guitarist of Deftones. The all-time champion of the loud-soft dynamic! I swear, there are times he makes me wonder whether those screams are sounds being made by a human (check out "Fireal" for a prime example).
The scream in Royal, Fireal, Rats!, and Rocket Skates.
Just because he only screams in half the songs is the only reason he isn't higher on the list. Best high-pitched scream.
All of these bands are stupid scream/metalcore bands. Such a shame that he passed away, but come on.
Literally no one has the range that Dani has!
Robert John Arthur "Rob" Halford is an English singer and songwriter, who is best known as the lead vocalist for the Grammy Award-winning heavy metal band Judas Priest and famed for his powerful wide ranging operatic voice. Stand by for Exciter! Damn, Halford brought us some high notes over the years and still can sing those at every concert. Come on, do I need to talk about the guy who performed Painkiller? He's the Metal God, and we all know it. And he's such a nice guy that he usually lets the crowd sing Breaking the Law in his place. Yeah, that's how nice he is to his fans.
Mr. Halford can sing the softest tunes and the most powerful harmonies in metal. Nevertheless, when it comes to high-pitched screaming (Painkiller, All Guns Blazing, Screaming for Vengeance, Exciter, Nostradamus, Judas Rising, among many others) or even death metal growls (Walls of Valhalla, Metal Gods live), he can really scare you to death.
Jeremy Wade McKinnon is an American musician and producer, best known as a founding member and the lead vocalist of A Day to Remember.This dude has some unique screams. Amazing.
Timothy Peter Lambesis (born November 21, 1980) is an American extreme metal musician and producer. He is best known as the founding member and lead vocalist of the American metalcore band As I Lay Dying. What a pity what happened. Such a great vocalist and band, and then... But I will never forget the brutal screams and the great influence this voice was to me.
Matthew "Matt" Kiichi Heafy is a Japanese-American musician, best known as the lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist of the Orlando based Heavy Metal/Metalcore band Trivium.His raw power and emotion on "Disgusting" is simply incredible with his newer band Beartooth.
