{Vocal Summary}
Keisuke is the lead vocalist of the deathcore band DEVILOOF, one of the bands that stand out with their extreme style that fully embraces the grotesque side of the modern visual kei scene, and Keisuke largely contributes to this.
As the amount of green notes in this thread suggests, he very mainly focuses on screamed vocals, and is notoriously competent at these: abyssal growls, tunnel growls, guttural growls, pig squeals, overtoney screams, piercing pure whistle screams, distorted inhales, disgusting fifth octave highs or low third octaves growls, you name it. Keisuke has a large knowledge of screamed vocals and an obviously great breath control and diction, given the quality of his execution (even on a live setting) when switching effortlessly between each of these techniques (see “Goujin Zangoku” and “Newspeak” for good examples). G3 seems to be his go to note when growling, but he goes even lower in quite a few instances while keeping a consistent false cord distortion, vouching for his good sense of being relaxed to get a healthy and controlled technique. The great variety of his growls, which is his main vocal approach in DEVILOOF’s songs, are also a (devil’s) proof of his refined understanding of resonance, tongue position, and mouth shape.
As for higher screams, he likes to go for a rawer approach by letting his natural’s voice tone show better, usually in the upper fourth and the entire fifth octave (“Disclosed Pandora’s Box”). Another of his fascinating techniques are his pure whistle screams, which he usually often does while rolling R’s in the entire sixth and lower seventh octave. The rolled R’s is something recurrent in his higher screams in general (see in “Aishite Kudasai”), and his use of tongue position seems to play a crucial role in his screams for resonance purposes, which will often make some of his screams absurdly overtoney (“HERO=MURDER”).
As for his cleans, they are rather sparsely used and underdeveloped, since he’ll often leave clean parts to Ray (one of DEVILOOF’s guitarists), as observed in the pre-chorus and second half of the chorus in “Dusky-Vision”, for instance. Keisuke’s cleans are round and dark sounding, hinting at his rather low placement as a tenor (see “ESCAPE”), and his lows are fairly wealthy down to F♯2. He likes to occasionally blend them with a throat-singing aspect on mid and low parts (for example in “DESTINATION”). He has gotten better at controlling his cleans live recently, with more comfort and much less pitchiness. He has even shown a handful instances of impressive belting in the mid fifth octave. Speaking of live performances, he has a captivating stage presence, and is blatantly always having a lot of fun on stage. Arguably being one of visual kei’s and Japanese deathcore scene’s current cornerstones, Keisuke has a bright future ahead.
