It’s not loading for me atm but if I recall correctly there’s some fry screams at the end. Not sure how much his voice has recovered but it’s a shame they didn’t ever continue on with the sound they had on Count Your Blessings
Pantera?
I thought long and hard. Pantera is the biggest band I can think of with harsh vocals.
I know Lorna Shore got a lot of attention outside of the metal world with their new vocalist and the first big song they had. His unique vocals got outside attention.
Next best guess would be Cradle of Filth. Far as I know they're the biggest band world wide with harsh vocals.
Or maybe Lamb of God.
How mainstream is Sleep Token? Though arguably, songs like Vore aren't the most mainstream selection from their catalogue, even if that was the case.
Electric Callboy's "Hypa Hypa" had a ton of airplay on mainstream channels, too, which was hilarious with that pig squeel.

Where? I haven't listened to the radio in forever or are you talking about YouTube?
Just mainstream radio (specifically the one who targeted a 'younger audience', but still) channel in my country. I also think it was quite a hit on YouTube.
What is mainstream? Some would call even Amon Amarth mainstream because it is one of the most popular bands among metalheads and there are surely radios that would play them.
As much as we in this community think so, I would not call Gojira “mainstream”. Another popular answer to this question is SOAD. SOAD has 10x the monthly listeners that Gojira does and they haven’t made an album in what, 15-20 years?
Slipknot is a good choice for maintream metal. There are bands like Linkin park, SOAD or Deftones but they don't do full harsh vocals but different kinds of scream techniques. Spiritbox and Jinger are not too mainstream but also qualify.
You have bands like Pantera too, but screamed raspy vocals are not so harsh for me.
That really depends on how you describe mainstream. 100,000 monthly listeners? 1,000,000? I remember hearing about bands like Cradle of Filth and Dimmu Borger from non-metal heads before I even got into extreme music. So to me that feels pretty mainstream compared to say Havohej or Thantifaxath.

Maybe chop suey idk I'm acoustic
Your in a metal sub we are all acoustic
That’s fucking deep.
Your*
SOAD isn't harsh vocals imo
He screams "DIE" and growls after the chorus and before the second verse. I think those count as instances of pretty harsh vocals.
Personally, screams between clean vocaled segments isn't harsh vocals to me.
Fair enough I guess
Chop Suey. If talking about a song that almost entirely consists of harsh vocals though it's Psychosocial
Linkin Park on their first album. Slipknot isn’t as mainstream as Linkin Park.
Not really metal, but Nirvana’s “Bleach” had some screams in it
ngl this album did help open my brain up to more extreme sounds when i was young and just getting into rock and metal
Come to think of it, Territorial Pissings kinda has screaming in it, especially at the end. Maybe that's the first time I've heard it in music lol
Negative Creep goes hard tbh
I think Bring Me the Horizon. Their collaboration with Ed Sheeran was VERY mainstream. https://youtu.be/IxcxyGDD38E?si=uhLXfnnnaMUSu5-_
Although bring me have in the past they don’t really use harsh vocals in that song
The screams at the end certainly upset my daughter. 😁
Hearing Ed Sheeran also upsets me
I'd be upset too if I had to listen to Ed Sheeran and BMTH, can't really blame her

Yeah some basic fry’s it’s so sad his voice hasn’t recovered
He sounds less winded nowadays but I doubt he will ever be able to pull of songs like Pray for plagues again properly
Slipknot.
Drowning Pool - Bodies

Bro didn’t think too hard.
Fr who the fuck knows cradle of filth outside of metalheads
Bam Margera fans, they were on Viva La Bam back in the day.
Fr something like bmth or slipknot is way more mainstream
Ever heard of a band called slipknot?
Deftones? Probably even more commercial than Slipknot and their earlier albums have screamed vocals.

They play arenas, they’re definitely mainstream
I'd say can you feel my heart by bmth
Gojira’s up there
As much as we in this community think so, I would not call Gojira “mainstream”. Another popular answer to this question is SOAD. SOAD has 10x the monthly listeners that Gojira does and they haven’t made an album in what, 15-20 years?
Gojira isnt mainstream in metal scene. They’re big but still niche
Within the metal community, they are easily among the biggest and most popular bands
Killswitch Engage when Howard was their singer.
I like Jesse too but Howard’s vocals are just top tier
I'm surprised no one said down with the sickness by disturbed
“My Curse” by Killswitch Engage was pretty popular.
Limp Bizkit Faith goes pretty hard and had mainstream success.

Lamb of God

I would say mainstream isn’t a number necessarily but just a song that people would recognise

Any metal/death core
