Time for Wiki Wednesday.
You know - you go to Wikipedia, you click on "random article," you report on the outcome.
Here's my random Wiki Wednesday find for this week:
The Accüsed is a hardcore punk and crossover band from Seattle, WA.
Formed in 1981 in Oak Harbor, Washington by bassist Chibon Batterman, Dana Collins and guitarist Tom Niemeyer. John Dahlin was the vocalist from 1983-1984, when the addition of Blaine Cook (frontman of Seattle hardcore punk group The Fartz) caused the band to progress towards a more heavy metal-based sound. The band dubbed their style--distinguished by Blaine's unusual choking-sound vocals, buzzsaw guitars, dark metallic riffs, and rapid-fire drumming--"splatter rock," and recorded five full-length albums between their inception and 1990s hiatus... [blah, blah, blah]
"Unusual choking-sound vocals." As opposed to your everyday, run-of-the-mill, choking-sound vocals?
Nice umlaut.
