I'm not sure whether what Blixa Bargeld does counts as a scream, but he does it very well all over numerous Einstuerzende Neubauten tracks.

Not made my mind up about the screaming yet but my favourite barking by a non-dog is on Birthday Party's 'Happy Birthday'.Barking mad indeed!

I take it that you mean that you haven't decided which of Diamanda's screams is the best?

Who else can be a better screamer than Diamanda?I'm trying to decide WICH is the ONE.

Inhuman 09.06.2006 09:13 AM

When Dennis Lyxzen from Refused says "Yeah" it's all cool-like.

Tokolosh 09.06.2006 09:23 AM

Dave Sardy was a great screamer with BARKMARKET.

And he does a particularly good one in the Bad Seed's Stagger Lee (I think that's the one I'm
thinking of).

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Danny Himself 09.06.2006 09:50 AM

The scream in Beck's "Lord Only Knows" is quite good. It starts the song well.

whorefrost 09.06.2006 10:03 AM

hmm... gotta be something by Whitehouse... there are many candidates... I'm Coming Up Your Ass springs to mind though

Everyneurotic 09.06.2006 10:09 AM

yamatsuka eye and yoshimi are ace screamers.
also springa from ss decontrol was an awesome screamer.
way too many to mention, kim gordon is one of my favorite screamers.

nicfit 09.06.2006 10:20 AM

LifeDistortion 09.06.2006 01:00 PM

Mike Patton screaming "I'm fucking you! on "Caffine" has always been one of my favorite moments in a song. Anytime someone screams like a freakin' banshee is pretty awesome.

selfobsessedandsexxee 09.06.2006 01:23 PM

carrie brownstein does a great scream on "Last Song" on sleater kinney's self titled album.

also, i think it's cool when thurston says "santa doesnt' cop out on DOPE!!" i just heard that song for the first time the other day.

where is this song from, anyway? (santa doesnt' cop out on dope) i heard it online.

LittlePuppetBoy 09.06.2006 03:04 PM

Frank Black in Bone Machine and Tame
That guy from Cave In has some impressive screams in Perfect Pitch Black

Trasher02 09.06.2006 03:07 PM

The songs I sing in DUH.

GeneticKiss 09.06.2006 04:06 PM

I love Thom Yorke's scream in Radiohead's "Climbing Up The Walls"...so unexpected...
But the best scream in a song IMO was in the Cure's "Subway Song"...

Midnight in the subway
She's on her way home
She tries hard not to run
But she feels she's not alone
Echoes of footsteps
Follow close behind
But she dare not turn around

Turn around....




















AAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!

touch me i'm sick 09.06.2006 04:07 PM

godammit whenever i listen to a song i go hey that was a good scream. but now i can't think of a specific song. i'll get back to you..

Yes.
The scream in Monkey Trick is superb. I'd say the best I've heard.
Nick Cave, when part of the Birthday Party, has some nice ones as well.

frank black in "The Sad Punk"
jack white in "broken boy soldier"

Aids Wolf-

(obviously Mildred Pierce and Lydia's scream in DV'69)
too much else.

I agree with you Chutney, i forgot to mention a bunch of Xiu Xiu. i won't though, ill just say he's one killer screamer.

Cantankerous 09.06.2006 05:08 PM

the one at the beginning of death valley 69
when courtney love goes "THE VOOOOOOOOOIIIIDDDDUGH!"

Пятхъдесят Шест 09.06.2006 05:10 PM

Keep in mind, I have not read the whole thread, so if someone else already mentioned it, oh well.

But the scream that starts of the first track on Ride the Fader by Chavez.

Top Pocket Man?
