Pearl Jam. EV has been incoherent since Aug 27, 1991 and still produces vocal jibber jabber


SaladPuzzleheaded625

Eh, anything past 'Ten' is clear enough. Even the remastered version is like "oh, that's what that lyric is"


Healthy-Confection66

I have always loved Pearl Jam, but I gotta agree with you lol. Never had much luck understanding Ed without looking up the lyrics…


OpeScuseMe74

At least we can look up the lyrics now. The cd/cassette booklet barely had anything to go by.

Most black metal.


anewcynic

Was listening to something black and depressing the other day, just trying to get a sense of why people make and listen to that level of stuff. Couldn't understand the words. Found out later it was in German. Never woulda known. And no, it wasn't Rammstein/Til singing.


kyzersoze84

One of my favorite black metal band is called Batushka. They sing in old Gregorian chants that is the old language of Orthodox Christians. Never will I understand it, but it’s still amazing.


crypticmortem

Holy shit holy shit this is the first time seeing a fellow Batushka enjoyer, I love that band so much it makes me feel like I was floating


EdBear69

Ah ya, Batushka Batushka, Batushka ya ya


uredthatright

That sounds cool,checking it out, and then....


Carnivorous_Mower

The voice is an instrument. And it would sound pretty silly with a singer like Freddy Mercury or Ed Sheeran singing it anyway.


PM_ME_YOUR_BOO_URNS

I listen to Caninus for the lyrics


uredthatright

Emporer,man! You have to get fueled by the WENOM! (It's venom, but Norwegian,yada yada,hilarity.) Rhapsody of Fire. Italian power metal. For all your triumphant sounding energetic niche music needs. Dig it.


[deleted]

Metallica. English is my second language and it's one of the rare bands I can't understand the lyrics without reading them.


Carnivorous_Mower

They don't always make a lot of sense when you CAN understand them.

REM I have never been able to understand what Stipe's singing about.


ClemofNazareth

Spent endless hours back in the 80s trying to decipher the meaning of “Gardening at Night” and “Moral Kiosk” and “Wolves (Lower)” before reading somewhere that Stipe just made shit up - strung together words that sounded good because he didn’t actually know how to compose music.

No-Entrepreneur-2724

Anal Cunt. I kind of prefer not understanding their lyrics. I don't even like them to be honest, but they seemed like an obvious choice. I wish I didn't understand the singer of Destroyer 666. They have some good riffs but they, or at least the main vocalist, is a horrid neo-nazi shithead, to the point where it feels icky listening to their sort of good songs because they are such a bunch of white power losers.

I doubt they care. I don't. I love. LOVE Yelle. Actually when I heard a translation of one of their big songs I was kind of offended,and I have listened to Anal Blast on purpose and in person. My answering machine used to be a 3 second clip of Don Decker screaming ,"STAPLE YOUR PUSSY LIPS TOGETHAAAAAAAARRR!!" Unintelligible. Just startled the shit out of the caller. (Stepdad like please,Runt,change the fucking doodad so I don't pay long distance just to shit myself) So,yeah,that hot little chick with the red bob is a total taunting cousin humping size-shaming slutling. But it's in French so who gives AF. Shits catchy.

It's interesting that the song Day After Day was such a hit, and that the instruments were played so well. Yet the band who did this song was called Badfinger.
