A capella Metal?

Dord

Yes. The title was correct.

Strange, but there is a band called Van Canto from Germany that consists of 5 singers and one drummer yet they manage to sound like a full power metal band. Cool stuff but it's really cheesy.

video and sound clips on their site (the chick isn't bad lookin')

Yes I am quite sure that these guys have been mentioned before here and videos linked to . They really arnt my cup of tea, but they are entertaining at least , if only for a minute or so.

Karl Hungus

Yeah, I posted about them before, they're definetly very interesting.

Dord

I did a search but we all know that isn't the best...

Theres something distinctly wrong with that picture, not sure what though. They just dont look very 'metal' to me. I suppose looks can be decieving.

It's the guy with his shirt open. That's all well and fine for Latin-American pop singers, but it's just not very metal at all.

I've seen worse when I was in Germany, you're lucky they're not wearing skirts. :eek: LOL

not metal? they fulfill most of the requirements

at least one has a gay pose with most of his shirt buttions undone

there's a midget in the back holding his head really far back to look taller


I don't see any leather pants though.. that could be a problem
just can't take people seriously in a metal band unless they are wearing leather pants

Nah, for some reason wearing skirts is ok. Just ask the singer from Dimmu Borgir:

Always has to be the full-lenth ones though, knee-high just ain't metal.



Anyone else pissing themselves as to where this thread has ended up?

I saw everything from Knee High to Skirts that reached the ground, all of them were leather. Very strange... I felt out of place wearing trousers

Yes, this thread has taken a very weird path....lol

Yeah, leather is definetly better. But I'd say you'd best be on the safe side and wear a full lenth one, just incase. If you're going knee-lenth, it should be a kilt. Nothing says metal like a kilt, biker jacket, and new rocks.

I know what you mean though, even when I was in the Download Festival, lot of skirts and kilts going around. I really wanted to buy a kilt myself, but they were something like £50, so I didn't.
