This is probably not going to be popular .... but here goes ...

I don't know how Meat does it. There are certain verses and lines within songs which he delivers with so much effort and power he sounds incredible, and yet when he sings 'normally' he appears (in my opinion) to struggle at times.

At times you think he's lost it and at others you think he's singing as well as he's ever done. The quality of the HCTB / Bat 3 vocals are probably down to editing a number of takes together, and I once read that Dead Ringer's vocals were recorded line by line and spliced together.

There's probably no doubt that his voice has been damaged over the years or has just grown older (certainly it sounds very different in each decade) and I think he now compensates in a kind of mannered style.
