not a poll. obviously the responses could be way too varied.

Share with us your favorite rock scream ever.

1 or 2 would work. try not to make it a list.
Give us the one that gives you goosebumps.
Hair Metal, Classic Rock, Emo, Whatever.

Here's mine:
Deftones - Hexagram ~2:40

Ha ha, well this one kind of scares me....  The screaming part at 1:45.

Avenged Sevenfold - The Art of Subconscious Illusion,  I like any of their screaming stuff.
 
Are we looking for just a scream or somthing with some actual musical properties...

A great scream is Bruce dickenson number of the beast...

A great scream with some vocal quality is Rob Halford...the live version of Green Manalishi...

I almost put Roger Daltry because of that scream, but I think Zeppelin did some better howls, screams, and all.

Speaking of Pixies, I almost forgot the screams in this one!

Now that's some serious screaming!
 
I also have to mention Billy Corgan's scream in the Pumkins "F... You (an ode to no one)". (Although I might be thinking about a live version? EDIT: yes, a live version where he lets out this outrageous scream simultaneously with his shrieking guitar at the beginning of the solo. Some old live version I have a video of from way back in the original Napster days...)

The screams that crack me up the most are on every live version of every Foo Fighters song ever. Dave Grohl's gratuitous shrieking screams are absolutely hilarious.
 
The YEAAAAAHHHHH in We Won't Get Fooled Again

Beat me to it.  That one is perfect.  There are lots of good screams in rock, but that is just it.  Go Roger!
