Well, basically the vocals are still pretty much like on the sheet. It’s mostly the envelopes of the vocals. While softer, slow vocal passages with stretched syllabes classically use a lot of attack (swelling loundness) and some modulation during long vowels, the vocals here are quite spot on. Starting at full loudness and holding the tone straight to the end with no frills, tremoloes or other tear-dripping nonsense makes a lot of the metal feeling. The second and third unisono voices, some compression and much more the contrast between the slow, clear vocals and the distorted, fast, 1/16 notes based speed metal instrumental track do the rest.
