    Serious question: how do I learn to like bands like Amon Amarth?

    I mostly listen to power metal. Powerwolf, Sabaton, like that.

    I have never had an appreciation for… Vocal fry? Is that the right term even? When the vocals just kinda sound like growling and are mostly incomprehensible.

    I hear people rave about certain bands but when I try them out and their vocals sound like angry screaming and bear noises it just turns me right off, and I’m not sure if that’s a me problem or what.

      Hah. I’m not sure you do! It’s the same reason I can’t like bands with maroon 5 sounding singers.

      I do love instrumental tracks for this reason.
