What's your favourite rock and roll scream? The Rob Halford 'screech' or a repetitive Pixies' style? Or something else altogether?

Lina (from Ladies First CHUO)
I love Slits' "Vindictive" scream!

8:29 PM, December 12th, 2015
Mary MacKinnon (host)
Great choice Lina! pretty distinctive!

I'll put my money on Paul Di'Anno's Wrathchild scream

8:40 PM, December 12th, 2015
Mary MacKinnon (host)
Another heavy selection! well chosen sir Phook!

8:44 PM, December 12th, 2015

Yes distinctive, but fun! Really hard to do this scream, but Sonic Youth "Mildred Pierce" is pretty good.

8:47 PM, December 12th, 2015
Mary MacKinnon (host)
Had forgotten that one, Lina!

I don't think I'm ready to claim it as a favorite, but Rollins really grates the nerves appropriately so on the Black Flag track Scream. That and most tracks on John Lennon's Plastic Ono Band LP.

8:49 PM, December 12th, 2015
Chriz
Those and most of the Lydia Lunch with Teenage Jesus and the Jerks!

8:50 PM, December 12th, 2015
Mary MacKinnon (host)
You know I'm with you on the Plastic Ono Band, Chris! and oh yeah, the Lydia Lunch screams!

I always found Roger Waters' scream on Careful With That Axe, Eugene to be particularly creepy. See esp. 3:08-3:30 of the Pompeii version... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GV3wYPXFiBY

Diamanda Galas
Ahhhhhhhhhahhhaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!

9:25 PM, December 12th, 2015
Mary MacKinnon (host)
Waters is creepy in every sense of the word; but for sure, on 'Careful', his scream goes over the top...

9:27 PM, December 12th, 2015
Mary MacKinnon (host)
Regis' view is that is more of a hiss

9:27 PM, December 12th, 2015
B-Roy
Diamanda Galas for sure! A good dose of her scream stylings on a recent Mind Melt: http://cod.ckcufm.com/programs/40/23806.html

Mary MacKinnon (host)
A nod to you, DG, and your screams throughout!

9:28 PM, December 12th, 2015

It begins as a hiss, but surely you cannot characterize its peak as such. But what else creeps you out about Roger Waters? His politics? His punctuality?

9:29 PM, December 12th, 2015

I'm surprised Donna Jean's wail on the outro from the Playin' jam any time from 72-79 isn't higher on your list, Lady Mary...

9:34 PM, December 12th, 2015
Mary MacKinnon (host)
Politics, daddy issues, relationship with his audience, you name it. Oh yeah, systemic attempts to erase Syd from the Floyd...

9:36 PM, December 12th, 2015
Mary MacKinnon (host)
You had to bring up Donna Jean?
