Damn. My step sister said the same thing that it sounded like Ozzy. I can't stand Ozzy. LoL.

Yeah those high notes are a bitch, but...

We already got offered a record and management deal from an international label, and they are financing everything...

I am more concerned as to weather this could have mass appeal from as many views as possible.

I disagree with the song writting points, as I am a theorist, and composer, with a degree in production. Several producers, including those that had worked with Van Halen said the writing was great...

This particular arrangment, was intended to be sort of bland, and I wouldn't expect many musicians to like it (I ****in Hate It.) It was intended for an "average listener" sort of audience. Porn Star is a bit more complex, and you might be able to appreciate that. It seems to be alot more popular with musicians. Although it isn't as complex as alot of material created by extreme metal, or hardcore groups. I wanted to retain as much appeal to the "average listener" as possible.

I can't remember Layne Staley growling. Most of his style was a pretty high pitched whine (usually people can't hit those high notes that he's got in my experience.) Phil from Pantera would be a bit much for this particular style I think.

Our band auditioned several AIC poser, wanna bes (like 10 different people trying to be Layne LoL,) none of them could do it pro, and we don't want to be another AIC. We also auditioned like 5 other vocalsist who sucked.

Any strategy on how to find one?
