miss_meadows Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I loved his vocals and his voice best around the Absolution time. But I also prefer his Showbiz/OOS voice compared to his current TR voice. Not that uncommon/controversial an opinion, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectrum IV Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Seems like a good excuse to revive this thread. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56gARkca6bY See exactly a minute in, an A5 followed by a very quick B5... Matt's highest note to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forevermusic Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 His TR voice is definetley better than his BHaR voice, but the OoS/Hullaballoo/Absolution vocal is the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt's highest note to date. haha, love it. Now if he could actually hold that for longer than half a second, i'd be impressed. I liked matt's voice in Showbiz and Origin more, simply because it sounded more raw and insane. Don't get me wrong, his voice at the moment is beyond incredible. But he sounds more reserved when he sings, which i suppose is better for him if he wants to keep his voice in good shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In general his voice has remained pretty good through all the albums, but it is sad he probs couldn't sing Micro Cuts like back in the day.

Kaimon Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 His range probably isn't going to be as high or as easy to reach nowadays, but it's still really impressive and his voice has just gotten so much stronger, especially the lower range. Good singing does not just mean hitting the high notes. Personally, I prefer his voice now then in the past albums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayFan9876 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 ^It kind of does. It sounded like it might have possibly been a Kaoss morph. nah it wasn't, his hand was down too low on the frets for it wo have been the guitar. Hmm yeah you're right. I was thinking it might have been the Kaoss pad, but it really was his voice. Is that really his highest note to date? It's not a very hard note to hit if you belt it.

Banksy. Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Do you have any idea of what you're talking about? To be fair, you can get pedals etc. that make a guitar sound very voicelike. I don't think Matt's ever used one though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattXXI Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Meh, technically I feel like it shouldn't count since he was just yelling "Woo!"...and not singing. To be fair though, judging by the stream and the videos, his voice was pretty on point that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd agree if he just hit some notes without any intention of doing so, but that is clearly a controlled scream which is no less singing than the high part in Showbiz or Bliss. Or does it matter if he makes an "aaah" or a "wooh" sound? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does sound like a yell that he would usually do, but that still doesn't mean that it shouldn't count If it's the intention that is the problem, why are you arguing about the yelling "woo" part? Like I said, is there any difference between yelling "woo" and yelling "aaah" which he does in so many songs. Just because someone is yelling doesn't mean they aren't using falsetto, and definitely not that they aren't singing. It's a note, he hits it.

Would it not take more effort of the "aah" part than the other, especially during the times that he holds the "ahh" for a long period of time?

Yes, how long he holds a note definitely matters! But it's not like for example the Showbiz scream is G#5 all the way through. He hits the note for a shorter period than the TIRO performance with the A5 and B5. Tbh, I think that beats most of the other notes in terms of time, even if the scream is longer. And which one is easier doesn't really matter. It's still the same thing. EDIT: After some thinking, not 100% sure of the length of the G#5 in Showbiz, but anyway!
