Guest Vocalist: Anthony Green of Circa Survive & Saosin

This past year Saosin returned with a great new album, and their first since 2003 to feature original singer Anthony Green. You might know Anthony from the band Circa Survive, which he started after leaving Saosin. His voice is very unique and interesting. He’s got a very high pitched singing voice and one of the best higher screams I’ve heard. Since the new Saosin album Along The Shadows came out, I’ve been listening to it a lot and it’s quite good. It also got me wondering what other songs Anthony has guested on over the years. So here you go!

A Life Once Lost- All Teeth:

This morning I woke up with the Incubus song “A Certain Shade Of Green” in my head. So I thought I’d go on an Incubus kick. I also wondered what other songs Brandon has guested on over the years. Well the following are those songs he has appeared on.

I’ve been in the mood lately to go back and listen to The Dillinger Escape Plan. Their singer Greg Puciato has really grown on me over the years. He’s really found his own path amongst the bands catalog, side projects like Killer Be Killed and The Black Queen and by the songs he has guested on over the years. Dillinger are going to be releasing new music very soon, so I thought why not share some of the songs Greg has guested on over the years.

Soulfly- Rise Of The Fallen:

 

Every Time I Die- The Marvelous Slut:

Over the many year of being a fan of heavy music, I have come to really enjoy certain peoples voices. Sometimes I’m in the mood for just total aggression and one of the names that comes to mind when thinking of that is Dez Fafara. Throughout his tenure in Coal Chamber and Devil Driver, he has brought the goods each album and especially live. His voice is one that only Dez can do. Many others have tried, but just can’t do it like he can. Here are a few of the songs he has guested on over the years

 

Funeral Flights- From Strait Up (Tribute to Lynn Strait)


Baptized In Redemption- From Roadrunner All- Stars:

The new Killswitch Engage album is so damn good. Jesse Leach’s vocals, lyrics and melodies are exceptional throughout all the albums he’s put out. He’s one of the most underrated singers in the last 15 years. As one of my all time favorite vocalists, my curiosity was raised to find out what other songs Jesse has made a guest appearance on. So here you go!

Killswitch Engage- Take This Oath (From The End Of Heartache):

Guest Vocalist: Ian Astbury of The Cult

Coachella+Valley+Music+Arts+Festival+Day+1+Kj7RbIRtFi2l.jpg

Way back when I was a little lad I remember seeing the video for The Cult’s “Fire Woman” and thinking that the guy singing was outstanding. So naturally I had my parents take me to go buy their album Sonic Temple. Over the years I’ve really noticed I love Ian Astbury’s voice. In the past few years The Cult has come back and are delivering the goods. Their last two albums, Choice Of Weapon and Hidden City are fantastic, and have that classic edge the band has always had. Ian’s voice has always been distinct and when you hear it on other band’s songs, it brings something special out of those songs. Here are a few songs that Ian has guested on over the years.

 

Tony Iommi w/ Ian Astbury- Flame On:

 

Slash w/ Ian Astbury- Ghost:

 

Circus Of Power- Shine:

 

Boris-Teeth and Claws:

Guest Vocalist: Marilyn Manson

Since last year I’ve become a Marilyn Manson fan again. His newest album The Pale Emperor is one of his best albums ever. Not to mention one of the best career resurrection albums ever. So with all that in mind it got me thinking that I should look into all the songs that Manson has guested on and share them with you all.
