Alissa White (The Agonist)

[Eury]

She's hot and an excellent singer. I like the song And Their Eulogies Sang Me To Sleep. Forget Tomorrow and Business Suits and Combat Boots are good to. Talk about Alissa White and her band The Agonist.

My favorite song by the Agonist is "When the Bough Breaks."

 

And Alyssa is definitely an excellent singer.

I'm listening to that song right now. It's pretty good although at the beginning she sounds a bit too much like a guy. Oh well, it's a good song.

[The Dark One]

Sounds like a guy? You mean she's just using a mid-pitch scream with a low formant. Girls can do that too you know. There's nothing inherent about it that makes it "masculine."

 

Edit: my bad, high formant. I had it backwards.

[Eury]

Good point...I feel dumb.

[The Dark One]

Lol, actually one of the things I like about the Agonist is that she screams hard enough that it's actually rather hard to tell that it's a girl singing. I mean, you can still tell because of her general range and because of the pitches that she uses different formants, but there isn't much left of the original tonality of the clean voice. I think it's rather neat.

I found them the other day while listening to TDWP, I think?

They're one of the best metalcore bands I've listened to..everything rocks.
