Well, let's say that Mariusz Duda takes far less risks than Labrie : his singing is almost whisper-like and I can't sense any originality in his voice (sort of Wilson-like, wearisome and irritating). You can't deny that Labrie delivers some awesome singing on 'images and words' (that was a huge improvement on the bland Dominici) or you must be really deaf or abhor high-pitched vocals. I saw both bands on stage : I cannot say I got bored during the DT shows (I saw them twice), while there were moments when boredom grabbed me during the riverside show (which was not metal at all).

In my case, it's actually neither
. My hearing is very good, and one of my favourite singers of all time is Glenn Hughes - whose voice tends to be quite high-pitched, as I am sure you know very well. I just don't like LaBrie's style, even if on
Images and Words his vocals are tolerable in comparison to the rest of the band's output. I suppose it all boils down to personal taste.
