Call me picky if you like, but there's no doubt there's a very fine line between great harsh/death vocals and a man with no talent screaming into the microphone. Get it right, and you'll be hailed but get it wrong and it'll be worse than bad noise. I hate going on about it, but for me, if a vocalist is awful then I'll instantly disregard the band and listen to something more worthwhile. Like I heard one band say, "Death vocals only work if the vocalist really feels what he's singing, not just screaming for the sake of it". Zao's ninth studio album 'Awake?' is a fair example of this, as I feel that singer Daniel Weyandt's growling/death voice just doesn't suit the music at all. I massively applaud singers like Mikael Stanne from Dark Tranquillity or Anders Friden from In Flames (with regards to their older material), who can sing incredibly gruff, yet still be understandable.
