Rolling Stone ranks the 31 best screams in music history

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentRolling Stone just ranked the thirty-one best screams in music history, and the rules only count the moment the singer really lets loose, not the whole song.

2. 

   Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentWith us from FCI Danbury is Cornelius Vandeventer, inmate forty thousand seven hundred eighteen, and a self-described music critic.

3. 

   Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentWhat do you make of that rule?

4. CV

   Cornelius VandeventerI love it. Strictly as an observer, a person should only be judged on their best thirty seconds.

5. CV

   Cornelius VandeventerI have argued that to a parole board, and they did not agree.

6. 

   Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentThe Pixies made the list with Rock Music from nineteen ninety-one, which the list calls a one minute fifty-two second scream tantrum.

7. 

   Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentIs that too long?

8. CV

   Cornelius VandeventerNo, that's commitment. Strictly as an observer, I once held one note for a full minute in a room with a lot of witnesses.

9. CV

   Cornelius VandeventerIt was a Friday.

10. 

    Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentA room with witnesses.

11. CV

    Cornelius VandeventerA karaoke bar. Allegedly. The screaming was the best part, and the court only played the parts around it.

12. 

    Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentMitski's Drunk Walk Home ends with a scream that takes up the last thirty seconds of the song. Does the rest of the song count?

13. CV

    Cornelius VandeventerStrictly as an observer, no. The rest is the walk.

14. CV

    Cornelius VandeventerNobody remembers the walk, they remember who got loud at the end, and I've been told I did.

15. 

    Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentWednesday's Bull Believer repeats Finish him from Mortal Kombat until it becomes a wail of more than two raw minutes.

16. 

    Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentIs that a scream or a confession?

17. CV

    Cornelius VandeventerRepetition is how you get everyone to believe you. I said I was innocent forty times at my hearing.

18. CV

    Cornelius VandeventerIt didn't work, but the rhythm was great.

19. 

    Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentSo you'd want your record judged by the loudest thirty seconds, same as the list. Is that the rule?

20. CV

    Cornelius VandeventerExactly. Put me in at number thirty-two. Strictly as an observer, I have the lungs and a very tired bartender who can vouch.

21. 

    Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentThe part of your record that counts is the part you screamed?

22. CV

    Cornelius VandeventerI wish. The judge only played the walk.
