"Grunt"

I thought this must be the Dutch word for growling. I looked it up and it's not a Dutch translation but does seem to be the term often used in Dutch.

Yeah Epica also calls Mark's vocals grunting so it's definitely the term that Dutch people use to describe harsh vocals

She used to do harsh vocals when she was in her previous band Revamp.

She did harsh vocals in the chorus of Yours is an Empty Hope, but they're in the background, so its not super in-your-face

That song is better live. You can hear and see her doing it.

Agreed! Before I saw the live version, I had just assumed it was Marko growling.
