Jacob Bannon (born October 15, 1976) is an American musician and visual artist who is best known as the vocalist for the metalcore band Converge. He is the co-founder and owner of the record label Deathwish Inc. and the author of many visual works for independent punk rock and heavy metal musicians. Bannon has also composed and performed experimental music as Supermachiner with Ryan Parker and more recently as Wear Your Wounds.
Bannon exclusively employs screaming and other forms of harsh vocals without the augmentation of clean singing. Joe Davita of Loudwire described his style as "at times sounding less like a voice and more like a percussive instrument adding yet another hard-hitting layer to the music".
