The "black/death metal" take on the word "vocals". A form of vocalization used in extreme genres of heavy metal, ranging from a low unintelligible growl in death metal to a raspy shrieking found in black metal. Variations of black and death metal, such as melodic death metal also use this form of lyrical vocalization (one can't really label it as "singing" because of its nature).

Vokills are not to be confused with simply shouting or screaming into the microphone; the utterances have an otherwordly quality, being used for meaningful invocation and representation of atmosphere rather than just "shock factor".
Abbath's vokills really rocked on Immortal's "Sons of Northern Darkness"!

A dope-ass rapper. Vakill doesn't try to be overly "out there," in terms of his lyrics or style. He instead uses the basic elements of rap, hard-hitting punchlines, a tight flow, great storytelling, and a battle rapper demeanor, to prove that he is a great MC. There are no chinks in his armor. He's not 2Pac, he won't change the game like Jay-Z or Eminem, he's not poetic like Nas, but he is instead very simple. But, that's what makes him great.
Here's an example of Vakills prowess from the song, "Armor of God," off of the album, "Armor of God."

"An angelic presence, the delegates blessing, it's hell against heaven, my flow is God's relic in essence. Why in the fuck is you replicas testin'? With a delicate pressin', I can blow you to maggot delicatessen."

A Vokili is usually seen as a big tsundere, they like to keep to themselves and probably like drawing. Never doubt any cooking they give you, it's probably really good. Vokili's also like hugs, so even if they say no, do it, please don't die. Tell me about it later.

Vokili s are also really positive, at first, you won't see it, but then you'll realize they love positively failing.
"Look it's Vokili, let's kill her with affection and hugs"

We had an add out looking for a singer for the band, but all we kept getting were inquiries from a bunch of damn vokillists.
