Not sure what forum to put this in, but what song would you suggest playing for someone to showcase Dev's vocal abilities? In other words, his best/most varied vocal performance?

Wrong Side if SYL is allowed, maybe Earth Day, Regulator, Hide Nowhere... This is too hard

I'm a big fan of the WoS vocals, but I guess Wrong Side would be the best choice. Growling/screaming and insane clean operatic vocals. The clean parts of Far Beyond Metal is awesome too.

I always thought Storm was always a good place to start for people who've never really heard of Dev. Yeah you won't get the most growling in the world, but you sure as heck get power at the end.

"Bring on the young" off SYL's self titled, it's all around Dev singing himself insideout.

That Processional song off of the Christeen EP always blows me away
Great shows of emotion in songs like Deadhead and a lot of the SYL stuff
Great overall vocals in Storm (highly agree with everyone here)
Sounds sadistic in the SYL cover of Room 429

Still My Bleeding Heart from Sex & Religion has always been my favorite Dev vox.

Deadhead and Earth Day have always struck me as having his best vocals

True. I used this one also.
And have to add Deadhead for its ultimate passion.

Accelerated Evolution seemed to have the most natural sounding vocals, and i would have to say i would show deadhead to someone or bastard from ocean machine.
