Odd thread, but whatever.

Yes, I love his voice. However his ego has been bugging me for a while.

However I have a feeling most people here will vote no.

Hells yeah I do.

Nel · « **Reply #3 on:** August 10, 2011, 01:01:21 AM »

I actually expect most people here to vote yes, given all the praise I constantly see for it. XD

Myself, no, I really can't stand his singing. Sometimes he tries doing this semi-rapping thing, and it's really annoying, and the rest just sounds like drunk karaoke night to me. But to each their own.

For the record, I do own Remedy Lane, Be, Scarsick, Linoleum, and Road Salt One, because I still like the musical side of PoS, and can get past the singing, but it does bring it down for me a bit.

I would like to propose a ban on Zook exclusive to this thread so things don't get nasty.

On a serious note, Gildenlow is one of my favorite singers ever. And yes, I like it when he raps, just as I like it when he does the shrieking high notes and the resonant low notes and the raspy shouting notes and the light falsetto notes and all of the other notes. Every note.

Ben_Jamin · « **Reply #5 on:** August 10, 2011, 01:09:10 AM »

Doesn't matter if he raps as that's not him singing. His vocals are pretty amazing. He has a great voice, and utilizes it pretty well.

Lynxo · « **Reply #6 on:** August 10, 2011, 01:10:16 AM »

I love his voice and the fact that he has many different styles to it. Rapping is one of them, and I love the way he utilize that in Used for example. Scarsick and Spitfall, not so much, but I think the problem lies in the music there rather than the singing itself.

I also love all the high stuff he's able to scream out.

Gadough · « **Reply #7 on:** August 10, 2011, 01:14:51 AM »

The emotion in his voice is almost unmatched. Yes, I love it.

black_biff_stadler · « **Reply #8 on:** August 10, 2011, 01:26:45 AM »

Great singer. Probably tied with Russell Allen for my #1. If I could, I'd wrap his voice in nougat, drizzle raspberry sauce over that and then add a final outer shell of chocolate.

nikatapi · « **Reply #9 on:** August 10, 2011, 01:33:34 AM »

I really like his voice and the emotions it conveys.

ariich · « **Reply #10 on:** August 10, 2011, 02:06:14 AM »

He's one of my favourite singers, so yes, definitely.

Zook · « **Reply #11 on:** August 10, 2011, 03:29:26 AM »

Heeerrrreess ZOOKY! No I don't like his voice. I think it's atrocious. I'd rather listen to Dave Mustaine. Not trolling. Dave might be a horrible singer, but I still enjoy his voice. Maybe it's because I grew up listening to Megadeth though.

Zantera · « **Reply #12 on:** August 10, 2011, 03:55:10 AM »

A few months ago I would have said no, but seeing as PoS has really been clicking lately, yes is the only answer.

Jirpo · « **Reply #13 on:** August 10, 2011, 04:54:33 AM »

Hes good, but not great in my opinion.

wolfking · « **Reply #14 on:** August 10, 2011, 05:08:59 AM »

His voice is fucking amazing.

Nah man, i think the best singer in the world's voice is terrible

rumborak · « **Reply #16 on:** August 10, 2011, 05:12:53 AM »

His voice is a great tool indeed. But, so is he. So, I voted yes.

Ravenheart · « **Reply #21 on:** August 10, 2011, 07:50:47 AM »

I love his voice. It's filled with passion, emotion, and sincerity, and he can reach high falsettos without sounding cheesy.

I know who he is, I was being an ass.

The only thing I've been able to listen to where he sings is the Led Zepplin cover thing with Portnoy.

His voice on that Zep thing was the worst I've heard him. He is one of my favourite singers ever though.

True. Actually I don't really like or hate his voice, but I do think his band's music is pretty bad. He's obviously a talented singer, but I feel like he goes way over-the-top with cheesiness a lot.

His voice..........

His voice is outstanding. As other people have said, he has the ability to convey emotions unlike any singer. Just look at the closing tracks for every album since TPE Pt. 1...

Especially Beyond the Pale. The part between "And I remember when you said you'd been under him" and "remedy lane of whens and whys" just might be the greatest thing my ears have ever heard from a vocalist.

god damn the closing tracks on their albums are so amazing

LieLowTheWantedMan · « **Reply #29 on:** August 10, 2011, 09:42:12 AM »

Yes. One of my favourite singers.

His voice is very good. Its the overall package of PoS that I don't see the massive appeal for. Or his political tool-ness.

pogoowner · « **Reply #32 on:** August 10, 2011, 09:47:17 AM »

I like his voice a lot. But, just like the rest of Pain of Salvation's music, I haven't liked the direction he's gone in with his singing as much on the last few albums.

Zantera · « **Reply #33 on:** August 10, 2011, 10:46:13 AM »

Well, I might agree there.
This is not a complaint towards the music on the latter PoS-albums, but Scarsick and BE has quite some rapping-parts, and I mean.. cool that he can rap, but those parts when he raps, I just feel like he could've done something more "interesting" with the singing.
Well, Road Salt One didn't really have much of that at least.

zxlkho · « **Reply #34 on:** August 10, 2011, 10:52:30 AM »

I really really don't like PoS, but I still love Gildenlol's voice.
