    David is the GOAT in my opinion. He has the most unique vocals in the genre, his lyrics are never bland or cliche, he ALWAYS goes hard live, and Signs has never made a bad song while he’s fronted the band. He’s the best, no question.

    Dave is such an amazing guy. The first Deathcore show I ever went to was when he toured with Worm Shepherd for the Absolvere tour. I went up to Dave and told him that it was my first show ever and the dude went out of his way to make it the best show I would ever be to. I'm talking signed merch, mic grab moments, etc.
    Such a class act. Fuckin love the guy

His vocals are pretty solid for a 4 yr old (and even my 3yr old girl lol) but I’m trying to make sure he’s doing his “monster singing” safely. It’s hard to teach littles lol

David of Renesans” sounds good too. Maybe a split?! Just spitballin’ here (and more comments hopefully helps algorithmic gains too 😝).

    Love seeing musicians that are into tattooing! I got tattooed by the guitarist of Inspirit/Vanna (Nick Lambert) without even knowing he was a guitarist until the day before the session 😅. Nick does awesome traditional work and is a super nice guy. The lead singer of New Found Glory tattoos (black/grey work) as well as the old vocalist of For The Fallen Dreams (that blew me off when we agreed on an appointment during Warped Tour when they rolled through 😡).
    If anybody else is aware of great tattoo artists that are involved in music plz reply to this with a heads up so I can check them out; Maybe I’ll find a cool new band to love and/or a great artist to grab a tattoo from.
