No, I've been straddling the lines, pretty much going across all kinds of different metal genres looking for new bands, but it's been hard to tell what kind of vocal style they're going to use until actually listening to their songs. (not to mention it's the most efficient way to do it)
There are some exceptions of course. Y'know from description if its folk metal or power metal that you're probably not going to hear that gutteral sound, but if you're checking out a band that does more than one style or that just hasn't been described in detail, you never know until you know.

Which is all just fine after all, It's not really a problem as there are plenty of bands to check out. I'm not so much complaining as saying that's been my system, (though it gets comically frustrating when there's a long fast lead in and you start to get into the song before you hear RAAWWWRR)

I'm listening to the song on the DVD menu screen for the cartoon movie El Dorado. Eating an apple and pb&j. Reading /lit/ and SMBC. Late night is best.
