I don't like them because there's no singer, just a guy screaming in an auto tune cranked to 10.

I can guarantee with as corporate and overproduced as that shit is they 100% use autotune. When you do it right you can't tell. I use it in my home studio even, most songs use it across all genres.

It's difficult to autotune screaming and sound that good. As a Windmill scene fan, the problem with Imagine Dragons is not the vocals (the lead has awesome technical abilities); it's the lack of a point.

what on earth does any of this mean?

what is a Windmill scene and what do you mean by lack of a pint? like a pint of beer? they would be better if they were drunk?

I swear I ninja-edited it to "point". "Windmill scene" you can search up; it's not too easy to describe. Some call it "crank wave"? Some call it art punk.

[–] bizzle@lemmy.world 1 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I did some research and it looks like they do on some and don't on others which is about as milquetoast as I'd expect from them

[–] Aatube@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 15 hours ago

Could you elaborate on which songs they use autotune on? Other than whatever "Thunder" is.
