I guess it's a personal thing, I'd probably find it easier to do growls but that's because I don't do it professionally and half-ass it, and it's harder to half-ass a shriek. At any rate it's a skill to do either one effectively.
I don't like A7X because they have a very basic, commercial sound, the vocals are rather effeminate (and I can't stand the whiney-type male vocals), their "tough/pretty boy" image is repulsive and arguably most of all they're marketed as "heavy metal" and many of their fans consider themselves to be metalheads while they dress all pretty and talk shit on real metal.
People listen to what they listen to, and I respect that, so I'm not gonna talk shit on a7x fans unless they talk shit on music I consider to be vastly superior in the first place.
