question:
Mediocre Music with Horrible Vibrato . The first time I heard about Antony and the Johnsons was from a friend of mine that told me about Rufus Wainwright and was listening to a new artist that was quite incredible. I decided to do some investigating about this Antony at a local Barnes & Noble and what I discovered was very, very dissapointing. I find the music to be well written instrumentally and layered quite well, but Antony's voice is very over the top and fake. By fake, I mean his use of vibrato, which is very rapid and used in a way that comes out as forced and sheeplike (not natural). Professional voice instructors teach that the correct way to use vibrato is at the right speed: five to six vibrations per second. It is evident that Antony's "trained" sounding voice is not trained at all in this realm. Another thing about this band and record that I find very horrible is the lyrics to the songs. The artist seems confused or regretful of his own gender using a sorrowful and painful delivery of these wailings. The lyrics hold no attraction or relation to the listening, which lends the listener to a pitiful and almost annoying view of the music itself because of this. My conclusion is that this is a terrible record and the singer needs to pursue professional voice lessons... and help
answer:
NEG
