KEITH CAPUTO IS NOW A WOMAN� SORT OF

This is interesting, last night I watched an episode of CSI which dealt with sex changing and I immediately recalled Caputo. 
Ontopic, TBH I only discovered this a few weeks ago when researching this band. I don't have anything against it, he/she is free of doing whatever he wants. In fact, there are many good female metal singers, so I doubt this will ever affect his/her talent. I have to underline his/her courage (I know this is annoying but I don't feel it's right to just say "his" or "her") in changing his sex, especially given that we're talking about a metal musician. It's a music genre highly associated with masculinity and hypersexuality, as well as a general phobia of everything (as noted in the article from the OP link). This is pretty brave and revolutionary stuff here, even if I doubt that many people will be upset.

	Why is six afraid of seven? Because seven ate nine.

	Jonas, the vocalist of Cretin is a woman now too, right?

	Apparently that hasn�t happened yet. In a recent interview Sal A. (drummer in Life of Agony) said that the band wouldn�t play together anymore though. They�ve basically disbanded. He named Keith�s wish to pursue his new lifestyle as one of the reasons, but the main reason was that they didn�t enjoy playing together anymore and had hit a brick wall creatively speaking.

	Her singing style will probably change - especially, if she's going to go through hormone treatment and all that.

	No not really. Biohazard are more on the butch side, while Keith Caputo always had a very sensitive soul and singing style. If you haven�t heard Life of Agony, I can highly recommend both "The River Runs Red" and "Ugly". The former is essentially a heavy hardcore album with a very distinct sounding vocalist and some really cool concept lyrics about a guy who ends up commiting suicide. With "Ugly" they went into a more alternative metal direction. While I definitely prefer "The River Runs Red", "Ugly" features some really great tracks too. ...oh and just to make it perfectly clear, I have nothing against his new lifestyle, just thought it was relevant news to fans of the band.

	Yeah, they brought it up quite often of blabbermouth for a while. I didnt really know them, but I like Biohazard so I can imagine it'd be similar to if Biohazard's singer became a woman.
