Where I live, certain consonant are more skipped-slurred ("wal-uh" = Water is the classic, in fact depending on where ou are in the UK, "Water" is generally one of the mot effected words) and consonants stronger. The letter "t" is almost non-existent.

Some believe the accent has no effect on singers, but none bring out the issue with accents more then the Engloids.

I think Big Al has a stronger accent from what I've heard. His vowels are often quite heavy. That and being a baritone-tenor, he has a deeper vocal do the sounds come out heavier due to the depth. This is the vocal that can do bass at a pinch.
