He almost pulled it off.

Napalm Death frontman Barney Greenway is what those in the Jewish community refer to as a mensch. The story of him wearing a Justin Bieber shirt to trigger homophobes in Russia comes to mind as one of the reasons for his menschness. Another example is his recent interview on BBC Radio in the UK.

Greenway appeared on the BBC Radio 2 show of British politician Ed Miliband. Greenway discussed his unique vocal style and even attempted to offer Miliband a lesson on how to perform a proper scream. Miliband was a good sport about it but was just not able to nail it down, as seen in this hilarious clip:

The interview came about because of Napalm Death's participation in the Glastobury Festival this weekend as they will be headlining the Earache stage along with artists like Wormrot and Extreme Noise Terror. Greenway also discussed all the different metal sub-genres. You can hear the entire interview here starting at about 1:34:54 in.
