Do you like Chris Barnes or George Fisher better?

Question

I don't really like Cannibal Corpse, but I do like Six Feet Under and Torture Killer [both have/had Barnes], and I like Paths of Possession [Fisher].

Which vocalist do you thik is better?

Answer 1

I like Corpsegrinder Fisher ALOT more, at least for Cannibal Corpse. It might have to do with the fact that Cannibal Corpse was mostly lame (as a musical entity) during the Barnes era.

It wasn't till around Bloodthirst that Cannibal Corpse started displaying more knowledge of key modulations, advanced melodic experimention, and basic dynamic approaches to their music. If a person listens to, say, Death's Spiritual Healing, and then Corpse's Butchered at Birth (released around the same time, early '90s), it's easy to hear how boring CC was back then.

After having made an overly long elaboration above, I should press home the fact that I think Corpsegrinder has a much more convincing, gut-munching ROAR than Barnes ever had.
