Completely false. They didn't want 2 singers at the time, Christian left because the band wanted to tour right away and he didn't, he wanted to work on his side project AS WELL AS let the record get some sales under its belt so they could correctly fund the tour. I've been to several of scar symmetry's shows and have asked about it. They parted and called upon the "Creative differences" excuse.

Sure, Christian was selfish, but he was the best vocalist these guys could have had.

You people need to get this threw your head. Band members come and go, sometimes Guitars, sometimes Drums, but vocals seem to be the biggest impact. Sure, I'm not going to deny that Christian was an amazing vocalist, but he's left to work with his new band. It was his choice and trusted that the remaining members would decide on the correct replacement.

If you hate the new vocalists so much, stop listening to Scar Symmetry and wait for Solution .45..

But don't get me wrong I love christian =)

[hellhammermsa]

Nah Christian wasn't all that good IMO, I prefer the new line-up it's more epic and embracing. I don't know what shows some of you guys went to, but I've seen them 3 nights in a row each song was spot on and sounded amazing, it's hard to get that quality recorded live, but actually being there live tells a different story =)

@kickstart06 and u also need a lot of guts to get up in front of audience where if you mess up they might boo you off the stage i kno because i've done it and i handle it pretty well they also didn't take two to replace christian they both do heavy and clean vocals one was just better than the other so the band decided to add both of them

[SuperBigDrummerBoy]

@kickstart06 Because Christian doesn't have any screams.I haven't heard a song with him screaming . The only difference you can tell between Roberth's and Christian's death growl vocals is that Christian's is more raspy and when christian was in the band they only made 1 single on two different albums with the two new vocalists they got 4 singles with just one album they are much better and the reason they don't perform as well is because some can get in front of audiences better than others

@kickstart06 1. Linkin Park had two vocalists in the beginning and they are one of the best bands out there also they don't always have two vocalists every song and Mike is more of back up vocalist except on in the end it's also their style. 2. I see now u can't compare Lars with Christians clean vocals because they are too different but you can with Roberth and Christian's fact is they both sound similar on the they're death growl vocals but not with the Screams. Why? Continued....

[kickstart06]

@SuperBigDrummerBoy sorry for making such a long winded reply, but Christian is one of the best vocalists out there, am I a huge fan? Sure, of his work. But Christian seems like a prick, so I wouldn't stick up for him, but his work is JUST THAT GOOD. Roberth and Lars can't compare, hence why it took TWO of them to replace Christian... Bands these days don't have two vocalists unless they're horrible...Let's make a checklist...

Linkin Park, Check.

Lacuna Coil, Check.

Oh and Scar Symmetry, Check

[kickstart06]

@SuperBigDrummerBoy doesn't make show sales, or satisfaction very successful. Regardless of any of these facts, Christian has a much more full voice in both accounts, Heavy, and soft. Christian is renowned for his ability to switch seemlessy between vocal styles and stay consistent. I've seen Roberth, and Lars do their thing live, and they struggle so hard to switch between their vocal roles, as well as have any sort of stage presence, and they're dripping with sweat after the first song...

[kickstart06]

@SuperBigDrummerBoy You've never seen either line up live, have you?

Christian is the ONLY vocalist for this band.

Both of their new vocalists struggle when it's not in a studio, why do you think these people take so long to make a new album? Because any more than one song a day for either of these mooks and they're spent... Christian would record the whole album in a matter of 2-3 days, Not saying that faster is better, Im saying that these two get their sound by spacing it out, and that
