| Zao is amazing in concert with their new line-up. i actually don't miss Jesse at all, if anyone can believe that. Daniel is one of the best vocalists ever. i've tried and tried to replicate his snarl-growl style, and i can't for the life of me get even close to it. it's so amazing listening to him, because it almost sounds effortless, like he can just open his mouth and produce these guttural growls. and very few people come close to Dan as a lyricist. Ryan Clarke (Demon Hunter, Training For Utopia), Jeff Mangum (Neutral Milk Hotel), Andrew Schwab (Project 86), Mikael Akerfeldt (Opeth), and Roger Waters (Pink Floyd) are the only people i would consider on par with Daniel. ZaoSk8er4Jesus: i don't mean to offend, but this is where my anal music geek side comes in, and says that this Zao is technically Metalcore and Melodic Metalcore. but Death Metal is fine as well. XteeXjayX: i'm almost 100% sure he doesn't say it. generally if anything is in parentheses in the lyric book, Daniel doesn't say it in the song (ie, 5 Year Winter, Praise the War Machine, etc). | |

| awesome input koihoshi man, my parents are like that they think "o its nothing but hard rock" and i say "first of all the term is 'death metal' and its all about Jesus. once you memorize the lyrics like i have done its great. not thats its not good when you dont have the lyrics memorized. and it takes extreme talent to do what he does. i know you've all heard tool to scream, at zero, and the buzzing etc, where he goes way deep and keeps the volume up times 10 and its extremely hard to do that. you have to build up your voice over the years with practice and stuff. so yeah this song is about his desceased brother, its very sad his other brothr commited suicide thats what "to think of you is to treasure an absent memory" is about | |

| Yes, i agree with all of you, Zao is very beautiful, and wht i dont understand is why people have to critisze them so much, the music is soothing to my ears, i fall asleep to it, the lyrics are just amazing, last night i had a dream about a parade of chaos, hahahaha, i really did.... | |

| Yes, Zao's music is absolutely in my opinion, the best i've ever heard.... Like you said, "i fall asleep to it" i can do the same thing, the music isn't screaming after you get used to it. Songs like this are more about meaning and personal relation to the songs. Songs like "Angel Without Wings" mean a lot and their songs go deep. A fall farewell is a good example, it isn't as deep as some of their songs but the way he writes the lyrics its almost poetic and its so capable of explaining his feelings through the lyrics alone that adding his vocals and the rest of the music simply blows you away. Everyone seems to think that this kind of music takes "no talent to do" but in fact doing these vocals is very difficult, if done wrong can damage vocal chors etc. Zao does it so well, this song is so well made, so well expressed. And it means so much to hear words come from someone and knowing i'm not alone in alot of this stuff. Losing friends hurts, and hearing a song like this makes you feel a lot better as well as it makes you think about the whole situation of Dan's. | |
