Top 10 Metal Singers With The Craziest Growls (2 of 6)

2. Yukina — Hanabie

Yukina, vocalist of Japan’s rising metalcore band Hanabie, might look sweet and innocent, but don’t be fooled. Her incredible vocals are savage, crisp, and surprisingly powerful. Even male singers can’t always pull those off. Hanabie exploded onto the scene with their blend of metalcore and Japanese pop culture aesthetics. Songs like “Neet Game” showcase Yukina’s fierce growls layered with catchy melodic choruses. You just can’t wait until the chorus hits to headbang along with the music.

3. Phil Anselmo — Pantera

Some people categorize Panthera’s sound as “groove metal,” and with Phil Anselmo’s ferocious growls leading the way, it’s very much true. His vocals on albums like “Vulgar Display of Power” and “Far Beyond Driven” helped define 90s metal. The track “Walk” single-handedly got millions of metal fans onto the “heavy” side of things.
