Careful with That Axe: Difference between revisions

* [[Disturbed]]'s child abuse segment in "Down With The Sickness", which is quite easily the most violently screamy 40 seconds in the band's discography (their later work relies more on clean, traditional metal belting).

** And yet, the hardest scream they have comes from "Conflict" ([[Refrain From Assuming|commonly known as "Enemy"]]) during the last 30 seconds:

"Then find another way to '''kiiii--OOOOOOWWWWL'''!!! }}

* It's less Careful With That Ax and more Careful With That Foot, but about three-fifths of the way through "Lord of the Winter Snow," from Luca Turilli's album ''King of the Nordic Twilight,'' Olaf Hayer jumps about three octaves in one line and sounds like he just got kicked in the nuts.

* Though it would probably be more like Careful With That Revolver, Queens Of The Stone Age's all-screaming piece "Six Shooter" probably qualifies for this, as does their song "You Think I Ain't Worth A Dollar, But I Feel Like A Millionaire".

* [[Alice in Chains]]' "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gm3lqTOhRAw Love Song]" combines this with [[Madness Mantra]].

'''''GET THE MIDGET! GET THE MIDGET! GET THE FUCKING MIIIDGEEET!''''' }}

* [[Oasis]]' "Fade In-Out": A scream occurs [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVpO172tr-4#t=3m12s about halfway through the song].

* Specifically averted in Steve Morse Band's "Rockin' Guitars," when guest vocalist Albert Lee leads up to the point where a rocker scream would be entirely expected, but instead very calmly says, "I refuse to scream."

* [[Delta Goodrem]], uses this, to an extent on her song "Nobody Listened"

''AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH'' }}

* Silberbart's "Brain Brain". Oh God.

* Most of the times Rage (played by [[Devin Townsend]]) shows up in [[Ayreon]]'s The Human Equation qualify for this, but it's probably most noticeable in "School" with the calming tones of Agony and Pain interrupted by the ripping loud screech of Rage tearing in behind them. Don't listen to this album the first time through on headphones.

* The [[Hair Metal]] band Steelheart, which featured a lead singer with a ''very'' powerful falsetto range.

* Zeehas; 12 Wait's "Elicit Tears" is sort of a strange example - it's a [[Synth Pop]] ballad that's mostly sung in a deliberately hammy but still pretty gentle manner... But the pre-chorus is always kicked off by the singer letting out a sudden blood-curdling shriek, then going right back to crooning along as though nothing happened.

* [[Queensryche]] lead vocalist Geoff Tate was fond of this early in his career. The two best examples are the opening bars of "Nightrider" from their self-titled release and "Gonna Get Close To You"...Which is one long irresponsible use of the axe.
