Top 10 Ne Obliviscaris' Songs with the Best Harsh Vocals
Ne Obliviscaris are from Australia and play extreme progressive metal. The band name is in Latin and translates to "forget not" (pronounced "Nay Ob-li-vis-kar-is").They have 2 lead singers - Xenoyr provides harsh vocals while Tim Charles provides clean vocals.
This list is about Xenoyr vocals (growls). He's very consistent and basically he has no bad vocal delivery.
His dark voice creates a perfect contrast to Tim's angelic clean vocals and this contrast works really well in their songs. A duet between a growler and an angel? Yes. That's unusual but it's part of the band's uniqueness and charm.
Xenoyr's real name is Marc Campbell. He also wrote all lyrics and created all cover arts.
The Top Ten
1 Eyrie
That growl at 7:55 is about 16 seconds long and works great with the killer riff played at the same time.
Also, his duets with Tim are great (esp. 5:05-6:05 and 7:40-8:10).
2 And Plague Flowers the Kaleidoscope
A phenomenal song and Xenoyr's intense vocal delivery contributes a lot.
3 Painters of the Tempest (Part II): Triptych Lux
Xenoyr performs many long and brutal screams in this song. And a duet with Tim at 4:55-6:03.
4 Urn (Part I) - And Within the Void We Are Breathless
That growl at 4:10 is about 13 seconds long and really stands out.
5 Devour Me, Colossus, Pt. I (Blackholes)
Play the sample to hear the harsh vocals followed by angelic vocals
