-comprehensible. The second band is called \emph{Disgorge} and make even more
-violent music. The growls of the lead singer sound more like a coffee grinder

-\section{Methods}
-\todo{To remove in final thesis}
-The initial planning is still up to date. About one and a half album has been
-annotated and a framework for setting up experiments has been created.
-Moreover, the first exploratory experiments are already been executed and
-promising. In April the experimental dataset will be expanded and I will try to
-mimic some of the experiments done in the literature to see whether it performs
-similar on Death Metal

-\section{Features}

+comprehensible. The vocals produced by \emph{Cannibal Corpse} are bordering
+regular shouting.
+
+The second band is called \emph{Disgorge} and make even more violently sounding
+music. The growls of the lead singer sound like a coffee grinder and are more
+shallow. In the spectrals it is clearly visible that there are overtones
+produced during some parts of the growling. The lyrics are completely
+incomprehensible and therefore some parts were not annotated with the actual
+lyrics because it was not possible what was being sung.
+
+Lastly a band from Moscow is chosen bearing the name \emph{Who Dies in
+Siberian Slush}. This band is a little odd compared to the previous \gls{dm}
+bands because they create \gls{dom}. \gls{dom} is characterized by the very
+slow tempo and low tuned guitars. The vocalist has a very characteristic growl
+and performs in several moscovian bands. This band also stands out because it
+uses piano's and synthesizers. The droning synthesizers often operate in the
+same frequency as the vocals.
+
+\section{\gls{MFCC} Features}
+The waveforms are converted to \glspl{MFCC} feature vectors using the
+\emph{python\_speech\_features}%
+\footnote{\url{https://github.com/jameslyons/python_speech_features}} package.
+All these steps combined results in thirteen tab separated features per line in
+a file for every source file. Technical info about the processing steps is
+given in the following sections.
