I got new dvd Magic circle fest II yesterday and I have to tell you, that I am little dissapointed, because from my point of view Eric was literally struggled every high note. I can understand the fact, that they played really long shows and he had to save his ultimate voice. But there are some moments, where I was breathing with him. I love his voice, he was always my hero, he is the man, but I am afraid, that the days of this kind of screaming are gone...
well i have too agree with you unfortunately, his screams may be really loud, high noted but are not as sharp as it used to be..we have to understand that it's totally natural for his age and i still respect him and he is still my favourite singer no matter what
manowar and death metal are both the same genre of music ASSHOLE. the only difference is that manowar is heavy metal and death metal is death metal. their both the same thing but the only difference is that their from two different sub genres. in the end its all metal whether you like it or not.
are you retarded? manowar is metal death metal is metal. they both have screaming, they both have a heavy set rift to their guitars, they both have almost usless bassists, they both have insane drummers. manowar is not christian rock music idiot.
Do you hear manowars bass(let alone a death metal bass)? Scott columbus is an amazing drummer. search up Manowar - Rhino - Drum Solo (Live In Greece '94) and tell my scott isnt a good drummer.
thats the point im trying to prove, manowar has a far better scream than any modern metal scream. because it all sounds like they are choking on cum. and dont be racist, i never said i was an expert in metal, im just saying manowar is better than the shit modern metal today. they ARE comparable.
first of all maybe you have not noticed that de maio bass is distorted and WAY LOUDER than the guitar
second,heavy metal scream are high pitched CLEAN vocals,death metal screams and growls are more bestial,singers from those 2 generes ARE UNCOMPARABLE,because one is singing(heavy metal)and one is making distorted noise with the voice(death metal)
dude, when he says screams, he doesnt mean the same screams, thats one of the things that seperates the 2 genres. plus, hes talking about heavy metal in general, can you honestly say you hear the bass as well as you hear the guitar in bands besides manowar?
Rhino and scott columbus are different people. Rhino was in for a short time when something happened to Scotts son If I recall. Scott is still a fucking great drumer.
I can't believe that there's so little material out from the 80's.
I would kill (with power, of course) for an 80's Manowar DVD... Doesn't matter what year, just give me some more fucking Manowar!
Eric Adams is a monster! Only Ian Gillans tone and screams can match his. Rob Halford also kicks ass, but he doesn´t have that tone.... The Death Tone!!!
I haven't got that one yet, but it seems pretty massive.
I was a little disappointed when I first got the Hell On Wheels DVDs, because it's only clips from the songs, although they are great since it's Manowar...
I don't know how much they've got on tape, but it would be awesome if they did like Iron Maiden and released an "Early Days" DVD, that would be the ultimate gift to the fans.
There are a lot clips (some only audio) of live Manowar performances of the 80's. Search for example for: "Manowar 1983" or "Manowar 1989", there are always some songs, and good quality.
There are even the early live versions of courage and brothers of metal of 1986, they are so great.
The best metal singer ever! He has very long screams (end of "Thor") and has reachen the highest tones (end of "Blow your speakers"). Hail from Spain!
haha lol...i see when intelligence goes short u have to attack my personality. well u can only be a fag when u can recognize eric adams as teh coolest guy on earth
you find fighting and dieing for what you believe in to be gay? so you just insulted every army in the world and successfully showed that you are a coward, good job
Ok & I don't like Osbourne's carreer & voice but I don't find videos of him to call him fag. Just tell your opinion. I like these bands too,also Blind Guardian,Iced Earth, Judas Priest,StratovariuS, Rage,Edguy, Gamma Ray, Mystic Prophecy,Heavenly, Shadow Gallery, Heavy Load, Wasp,Mercenary, Marauder, Pyramaze, Firewind, Masterplan, Poverty's No Crime, Dream Theater, Primal Fear etc... I don't like Led Zeppelin,Pink Floyd,Cradle Of Filth,Black Sabbath(with Ozzy) but I respect them and their fans.
I hope you don't hear metal because only pop,trendy and emo guys (or girls) say that for the best vocalist in the world. He is the only singer in the earth that he is on Guinness records, because he has passed over Maria Kallas' voice by one note.
Bruce Dickinson is great, so are the legendary Iron Maiden, but in no way he can be compared with Haldord, Eric Adams, M Kiske, G Tate, M Barlow, D Coverdale, and the rest of those monsters.
@noreturnabcd it is technical... he explains it on the absolute power dvd... he does that pose most of the times. mainly when he is holding a note for a while.
@angelpriest actuely Bruce Dickinson has always been a better singer then Eric Adams and can scream like him to. thats why he was nicknamed the Human Air Raid Siren
I take it you haven't listened to much of his work. He has plenty of emotion, just listen to the great songs like Stranger in a Strange Land or For the Greater Good of God. But I agree that eric is great. How can anyone scream like that, it is amazing.
I love this scream. I wish there would be more footage of him screaming with this high pitch but all the other clips showing him in the early years have a poor sound quality :(
You can't figure out how to make your voice raspy? Good!! Why the hell would anyone want to (on purpose, anyway)? That raspy stuff just shreds the vocal cords, and it really doesn't sound good. If you can sing high without the rasp, that's WAY better sounding, and a lot better for your voice.
Well take Eric Adams for example, he does it with good technique and doesn't rip his vocal chords to shreds! And it sounds great for what he does, I sing for a power metal band, and I'd like to be able to make my voice slightly raspy for an angrier sound yet can't. When done properly it won't damage your voice, I just can't figure it out...
Whoever said Halford is better than Eric Adams is a fool. Eric Adams is the greatest vocal ever. Doyou think Halford could sing "Hail and Kill" or "Nessun Dorma"? Or "Heart of Steel"? Or "The Phantom of the Opera"? And Adams could scream more than 40 seconds.
this is the most powerfull scream i've ever heard, my god
