I would consider a main influence... the bands that he was recorded which the main one was Defeater... [on their progression later on]: From First to Last the og stuff, Underoath the first couple records, bands like that Armor for Sleep and Thursday... another band that I forgot to mention which was a huge huge influence on the way that I sing in scream is like Burt McCracken... if it wasn't for [Bradley Walden], I might not've tried singing as much as I did on the new record.
