@Lodestar1977 Hmmm, I'll try to explain. Blacklisted's vocalist has a metalcore-ish intensity to his vocals that I think is more apparent since the tempo of this song is slow and allows space for him to draw out each line. This contrasts with a band like Champion or Ruiner, where the vocalists spit their lines at a quicker tempo and the space is not there for them to draw out their words like in this song.
@SlowlyVVeRot Ah I think I understand what you mean. That kind of snapping pure adrendaline vocals backed by a relentless sound blast of hardcore punk. Oh yes, that is cool too.
I could argue that metalcore realy borrowed the yelling style vocals before metalcore became what it is. But that is obviously debateable and besides the point.
@SlowlyVVeRot Actually I listened to ruiner, and realised I did not have you right at all. Not what I thought you meant. If you do a search here for Poions Idea gone for good. You will have an idea of what I beleive you meant.
No matter if you don't like it. Just highlighting where I thought you were coming from is all.
great song. i love hardcore with more intense screaming as opposed to the traditional yelling. it's all good though!

@SlowlyVVeRot Bit late to answer this. But out of curiosity I wonder if I could ask you to elaborate on that.
