The rising stars of extreme metal, Argorok, are back with their new EP, \u201cOmen.\u201d We\u2019re talking to the band in two parts. Did you miss the first part? You can read it here. <\/p>\n\n

Think outside the box<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

A highlight of the EP is the collaboration with Aello die Windb\u00f6e (Harpyie) on the song \u201cEnklave.\u201d Bill explains how it came about: \u201cIt was a pretty spontaneous idea. The song was supposed to have a clean vocal part in the first verse. At the time, I was listening to Harpyie\u2019s songs quite often, and at some point it occurred to me that it might actually be a good fit. Aello\u2019s voice is quite a contrast to what we usually do, but I think that\u2019s exactly what makes collaborating with other musicians so exciting.\u201d <\/p>\n\n

Practice makes perfect<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

In particular, singer Boa\u2019s deep, guttural voice gives Argorok\u2019s martial songs a distinctive element. \u201cTechnique is everything. If it starts to feel uncomfortable or hurts, stop, rest, and try again a day or two later. \u201cI experimented for a long time to find the technique that worked for me. Your individual sound just comes naturally. Classical voice lessons helped me learn proper breathing techniques,\u201d the frontman reveals, explaining how he protects his voice in the face of such challenges.<\/p>\n\n
