@WWWhitechapel Yeah. I don't know why everyone gets so defensive on here. I just pointed out what I thought and then I have someone coming at me getting a bit defensive. Haha. Calm down, it will be ok. (:
haha i remember the first time i saw suicide silence live at mayhem fest in camden new jersey back on 2008 for the cleansing and they were fucking awsome
Seriously what the big deal with people arguing over his technique, from the looks of it he isn't cupping shit because if you took the time to actually see and not go off a mere glance you'd notice his hands are shut.
I'm not here to talk shit its just annoying seeing people argue over nothing.
Quite frankly I'm glad people hate on SS at least their doing something in life unlike most of you worthless internet trolls, get off your asses and do something worth your time, not arguing through your
hey!! please go to suicide silence facebook page and click on LIKE! plese they gona put up the album version of FUCK EVERYTHING! when they have 1,150,000 people that like they page.

That's like saying using a distortion pedal is cheating. It's not. It's just using your resources to get the sound you're going for. Mitch has NOOOOO problem busting out lows. Obviously. You can't cheat if you're already beast at it. Well, you can... But he doesn't need to. He's not cheating. He's getting a different sound.
How about you all shut the fuck up and listen fucking Suicide Silence, maybe it would get you all to stop bitching over the interenet like nerdy fuckin pussies.
i freakin need this album.saw them 2times and had the opportunity to hang out with them.and yesterday i got my "seconds from the end......" tattoo.i fuckin love them!
@darkNfamous i got to be backstage during their whole set. pretty legit. someone threw a bag of pot on stage and mitch came over and asked me if i saw where it went
Bahahaahaha!!!! Who gives a FUCK about cliques and shit? Either you like the music or you don't, not every "metal head" is gonna like this. Not every "scene" kid or "emo" kid will either. Like the music or don't and shut the fuckkkk up! :D
You kiddies don't understand how good you've got it. When I was your age, Suicide Silence wrote the same song 13 times, called it The Cleansing and toured on that, and WE LIKED IT!
@JeffroTheMan1 Sooo true. I'm hating how kids are dissing this amazing new shit and saying the cleansing was the best thing ever when all it really was, was a huge blast beat and breakdown. There were maybe 4 good songs, but all the others sounded the same..the album itself just eventually gets boring. Suicide Silence have improved alot since the cleansing, but all their fucking 16 year old scenie fans want a 30 minute breakdown. That shit isn't heavy, it's boring.
@HeavyMusicGuy16 ... LOL ... are you kidding me? The first album was the closest thing to metal, this pussy shit their putting out now is very scene and attends to the emo kid's liking... they gave in to their crowd and they suck balls now. Cleansing was heavy as fuck and NTTB was good too but this shit is horrible, and that's coming from a 19 year old Death Metal vocalist in a Death/Thrash band who lieks Decapitated, Cannibal Corpse, Slayer, Vader, Behemoth, etc. no emo bullshit.
@xSLAYtheWEAKx You're either deaf or stupid. The cleansing was the epitome of deathcore scene kid/hardcore kid crap. You're a vocalist, any musician who plays an instrument can tell you these guys have improved. If anything the shit I've been hearing so far through these clips is for more "metal" then their previous efforts. Know your shit fool.
yeah bro real vocalists understand the mic is also an instrument. you seriously didn't know that about cupping? like really? that's hilarious. what do you listen to classic rock or something?
@MoosieCoverz 2 things. 1, he doesn't cup the mic. He cups his mouth away from the mic to direct sound wave direction. 2, don't be trying to dis a man who has made it way farther then you probably ever will in a musical career, assuming you even have any ability to begin with.
No, he is definately cupping the mic. He does not need his hand to direct the soundwave to the mic. His projection should be doing that just fine. He is cupping it to add a slight distortion to his vocals. I respect Mitch and think he is pretty breast. But he cups his mic way too much. I mean sometimes is fine but I see him doing it half the time in this video. Learn your shit before you start talking.
@coons1212 are you fucking blind? like do you seriously have eye problems? i mean, do you have your own personal eye doctor? did you lose a contact or something? maybe you masturbate too much? is that it? BECAUSE IM PRETTY SURE HIS HANDS DONT COME ANYWHERE CLOSE TO TOUCHING THE MIC: example: 2:07
That still distorts his vocals unnaturally. He cups his mic live and cups his mouth in the studio. Either way, makes the same unnatural distortion either way you look at it. Oh yeah... You mad bro?
@coons1212 interesting theory, I've tried this before. It slightly, SLIGHTLY changes some what of the tone, but that doesn't take away from the actual sound being produced by your voice. In other words, the result isn't very different, cupping your mouth or not.
@coons1212 no im not mad actually. and well guess what? theyre touring around the world, selling tons of records and building their fanbase more and more by the minute. and your sitting on a computer complaining about it, getting no where. i think it would be the best for you if u quit being a baby :)
Lol, dude I don't know what the fuck you're talking about. You should pay more attention to my responses. I said I like Suicide Silence. I have all their albums and then some. I'm also pre-ordering their new album soon. I was just making the arguement that Mitch cups his mouth/mic. That doesn't mean I don't like the band. Also, I don't understand how I'm being a baby? lolol. I wasn't complaining about shit haha. Get facts straight buddy.
@coons1212 If you clearly look at the video, he is nowhere near the mic while cupping around his mouth. Cupping works the same way, basically, as the mouthpiece of a brass instrument. You create a small sound chamber to get a specific sound using the close proximity to the diaphragm of the microphone in order to get said results. He's a good 4-6 inches away from the SM7 set up to record his vocals. Therefore, he is cupping his mouth, not the mic.
Either way, cupping his mouth and/or mic makes that sound chamber that makes an unnatural disortion to his vocals. I've said this as a response to another person as well.
@jws2906 Aha cheating... I hate all of these stupid vocal pricks who say what you should and shouldn't do. Like people saying inhales suck and cupping the mic is cheating. STFU! I believe that if it sounds good and brutal, fucking go with it. All of Chelsea Grins self titled ep was inhales and that was a great ep. Also loads of vocalists cup the goddamn mic! Cheating my ass, its a technique!
No, there's a reason people say you shouldn't do certain things. Cupping the mic is a compensation for bad technique, and inhales sound like crap and damage your voice, that's why alex from CG learned to do exhales for the album. Only bad vocalists cup the mic. Mic cupping is to screaming, what autotune is to singing, an excuse for talentless hacks to make money.

No, there's a reason people say you shouldn't do certain things. Cupping the mic is a compensation for bad technique, and inhales sound like crap and damage your voice, that's why alex from CG learned to do exhales for the album. Only bad vocalists cup the mic. Mic cupping is to screaming, what autotune is to singing, an excuse for talentless hacks to make money.
