My Take
Jacob Bannon embodies the kind of total artist I find irresistible. As the voice of Converge he delivers some of the most ferocious vocals in metalcore, yet he studied art at Lesley University and pours that sensibility into everything around the music. He founded and runs Deathwish Inc. and designs the visual worlds for his own band and countless other punk and metal acts. The aggression is never empty; there is a real aesthetic spine running through it. I respect creators who own every layer of their expression, and this Boston-born force does exactly that, sound and image alike.
