Is KTVA course right for me?

Through my online friend, i had the opportunity to watch Ken's old course (Vol 1, 2, 3 + head voice). While It was great for Belting and Classic Rock but i felt it lacks on developing a melodic sweet pleasing tone to sing songs that demand sensitive feelings. Even my favourite Rock/metal bands don't sing like Ken's technique. I'm 17 , so my influences are anything post 2000 bands. Breaking Benjamin , RED , Decyfer Down , Thousand Foot Krutch , Linkin park, Alter Bridge etc. Does the new course cover anything new in this point of singing melodic tone ?

Ken wants us to have a "runner's body", i.e. be able to do all sorts of things with our voice. the course also follows a progression that has a healthy way of building chest, mix, and head voice, so after going through all volumes, you will have learned all these techniques, which covers a lot of ground.
the bands you name, i don't really know what you mean they don't uses Ken's techniques? the singers of these bands are doing mostly chest-heavy rock vocals, which is exactly what Ken teaches (among a lot of other things).
can you show us an example of what you mean?
to some degree, the emotional part of it is up to the singer, i think. but if you have all the right techniques down, you have more space to focus on the delivery, because you are not thinking about techniques anymore. it takes a while to get there, and it is hard work though. don't forget, the bands you are talking about are all heavy-weights in terms of success. they will have put a lot of time into sounding that way. if you put in the time, you can also get there, at least in terms of vocal technique. if you get as famous as these singers you named, that is another question
i don't know who is shouting the scales off pitch an hour a day. are you?
