  • that's not metal. see Dio/Halford/Dickenson

    

  • Very well explained dude, thumbs up!

  • this is pretty sweet man

  • best video out there ! thanks :D i could make a pretty sick growl i didnt even knew i could do!!! haha really awesome.

  • does this hurt your voice? i guess it hurts it a little, but nothing major`?

  • WHISPERING REAAALLLY LOUD! WHISPERS!

  • @crayzeesheep I can do growls but I can hold them only for 5 secs the fact is that my throat doesn't hurt at all but I run out of air what's going wrong? And also do you know how to do vocals simillar to Norther because I really want to learn how to do this kind of vocals.

  • @RhewBleiddiad are you able to sing normaly? if yes practise singing a tone as long as possible and then shouting as long as possible

  • awesome vid, dude~ I like your teaching style~ haha

  • Hey.. awesome info and tutorial... more? I'm a classical singer that wants to learn how to scream.... so scared of the pipes being damaged!

  • Great advice pal!!! Thanks :)

  • i've been trying to work out how to do this since i first got into metal. Then you explained it to me in two and a half minutes! absolutely awesome thanks dude :D

  • get help

  • is it normal to feel some sorta of a block and the sound just dies? lol

    this is like a fry guide, i can do other styles but this eludes me alot -.-

  • haha, he's constipated

  • hey crazy sheep ur hot :)))))))))))))))))

  • This isnt metal style -_- death metal and metal are 2 different things

    

  • @blacksunshine3452

    Well he isnt doing Death Metal vocals at all in this video, It is more like Black Metal vocals :P

  • @ChronicBlaze93 Well its still not metal lol idk the difference between deathmetal and black metal. they all sound the same.

  • @blacksunshine3452

    Well you must be very ignorant to say the least, Black Metal vocals and Death Metal vocals are very different, Black Metal Vocals are higher more shrieked while Death Metal is lower/deep growling vocals.

    And yes it is metal cause it is a heavy metal sub-genre, there for it is metal.

  • @ChronicBlaze93 Thats the only difference in they type of music. If you have to analyze that far in to know what genre of music it is, then there are to many sub-genres. besides both those types of music are pure randomness on the instruments. its annoying. I hate where ppl have taken "metal". When ever i look up metal in youtube it gives me screamo bands. People who dont know how to sing and just have seizes on the drums while using the same teqchnique that they do masturbating on the guitar

  • @blacksunshine3452

    You are not a real metal fan, You are just a typical poser/hipster. I have come across people like you many times before, Ignorant close-minded idiots.

    Also to do death metal/black metal vocals it takes a lot of practice and dedication, You will seriously mess your throat up permanently if you dont to it right, And weather you like it or not they are Metal, Hence why it has Metal it their title you moron.

    You are so stupid its funny, Also you know nothing about metal.

  • @ChronicBlaze93 hipster poser? XD wow your stupid lol. and yes i know you can mess your vocal chords up. which is another reason why i find it retarded -_-. Yeah lemme just go dedicate all my time to making my voice sound like im getting buttfucked and call it a talent. All that genre of is, is people trying to make classic metal more heavy and failing epically. Its all a contest of whos more hardcore or what can tune their guitars lower. I could put together a song like that in 10 minutes.

  • @ChronicBlaze93 Its a pethetic excuse for music and all the bands that play that shit sound exactly the same. and there are so many bands like that. They dont do it for the music they think "oh yeah that band got famous from it! maybe i can too!" just for the money. and thats sad. so so very sad.

  • @blacksunshine3452

    Thats funny cause it's not mainstream music, it's underground.... They arent really famous nor the whole meaning of Black Metal is about fame.... No Black Metal band is known hugely world wide

    You just showed your complete stupidity and lack of any musical knowledge about the subject of metal, As I said you are a poser.

    Also there is not a huge sum of money to be made in Black Metal, So it's more about the music is not bout the money.

    You are stupid, Go home :)

  • @ChronicBlaze93 not so much black metal. more of the death metal and deathcore and all that gay shit. Idk where your living but here in vegas, little kids are pumping out these stupid ass bands like its nothing. Only because they want the money. As for already famous bands, i dont have as much of a problem with then -__-.its the new bands. It sucks because they are all wanting to play a bad genre of music, then they over play it and make it worse. None of them play anything different .

  • @ChronicBlaze93 and they keep making up stupid new genres but adding death,core or hard to it so they can be "original" THATS a poser.

  • @blacksunshine3452

    Considering core sounds different from metal, And death metal sounds different from other sorts of metal..etc.... Kind of speaks for it's self...

  • @ChronicBlaze93 but still, there are people who put bands like that in the metal genre. And it pisses me off. why don't people just listen to heavy metal anymore? I even got some of my friends that listen to this type of music to like heavy metal.

  • @ChronicBlaze93 Its just noise. And all the funs of it are 40 year old dudes going through their midlife crisis and scene kinds that beg to be accepted by ppl. That style of music isnt something ppl listen to for enjoy ment. Most use it as a fashion statement so its going to die fast. And hopefully soon. so ppl can get back to listening to good music.

  • i want like a Fred Durst and Chester Bennington scream

  • what if it dosnt hurt at first, but after perhaps, 4-5 song into it you're feeling a bit sore, is this just the throat getting used to vibrations? 

  • @paddycakes1 just ur current stamina bro, i would suggest drinking more water most likely. I started drinking water after every song, but honestly 2 gulps inbetween verses or in pauses will keep u going for longer. I couldnt go for 4 or 5 sounds when i started, but now im good for an hour.

  • really good video man but does that work too for growling like rob flynn from machine head or max cavalera from soulfly?

  • Hey ! I couldnt manage to do the 2nd vocal string sound can u help me ?

  • Comment removed

  • this is the best video on youtube for screams, you just made Melissa Cross look like a douche-bag.

  • funny man

  • best one i've found thanks dude

  • nice buddy

  • You say that using your diaphragm is essential to the screaming process. But doesn't using your diaphragm require you to use some amount of oxygen?

  • Hey, I like you! Nice video, man. Greta job!

  • man, best tutorial I´ve seen in my life!

  • Lmao, WHISPERING, WHISPERING REALLY LOUD!

  • Are you a wizard?

  • Wow! That really helped!!! Thanks Man!!

  • nigga you gay

  • dont do this while your smoking

  • RRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGG­GGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! 

    How was that?

  • You guys are retarded, the pushing of the stomach is a must otherwise your shitty fry vocalists which any retard can do.

  • Ok, thank you for this video

    I'll try my best to also be able to do it like you are and see if that is any better (:

    Thanks ^^

  • *subscribe* youre fucking amazing dude!!!!

  • Is this like the vocal fry? Are you doing the same thing?

  • I don't get it, I've tried this technique and a couple of others and all have the same results: my throat either gets dry and raspy after a couple of seconds of screaming or I produce no sound at all. I tense up my abs and feel the air pressure coming up, but it doesn't seem to help me at all. Besides, I remember hearing in the Zen Of Screaming, that pushing with the stomach is a big no-no.

  • @StrikerTheLizard dude i'll be honest, zen of screaming is a huge rip off. all it is is metalcore singers telling you how awesome melissa cross is, i'm surprised you learned anything from it, let alone remembered anything resembling stomach pushing = bad

  • @metaldruma911 Good thing I used a torrent then xD

    Thanks to the uploader. These are techniques I need to improve upon, but it is a great start for me :)

  • hey dude, im doing what your saying but i can only get that sound for a couple times then it goes away? help please?

  • @commander573 get ALOT of air down is a good thing to do. but try humming then slowing it down to where its like skipping then add a raspy sound to it and hold it as long as you can. hope that works bud ^_^

  • @randomness13u16suck so kind of like fry screaming?

  • @commander573 thats just a different way. its takes longer to get it loud though.

  • HOLY SHIT. NEVERMIND. I DID IT. I CAN SCREAM. I LOVE YOU MAN.

    I LOVE ALL OF YOU GUYS.

  • I tried the gagging thing, mixed with the whispering(?), along with flexing my diaphragm... uhh.. sounds like i'm just trying to talk while being choked... like - i can't get my voice out due to it. And uhh... damn i hate how it's so difficult to explain these things.

    I'm not so into screaming, so i am into the dynamics of singing. Implementing screams to convey the right emotion and all.

    I have a clean singing voice. I'd like to gain the ability to get some scream in there.. just... jesus.

  • This is the best explanation I've come across. Thank you sir!

  • dude your awesome

    this... you explained it very clearly and its easy cus of u :D

  • And can you tell me can i do melodic death vocals with this way?Because there is no damn way that I could find someone who knows about metal vocals in my town..

  • Well I'm trying for about 4 months by myself to learn melodic death metal vocals...But all I managed is to make somekind of vocals same to black metal according a friend.It sounds like drowning do you what i actueally do?

  • Thanks for making this video man. I've been screaming for a year now and this helped me define my false chord scream. Easily the best how to scream video on youtube :D

  • How cool is that. I never knew how they did it,lol, now I know....

    I'm a chick & play the guitar, I want to put a death metal band together & have a male vocalist (that's a must off course) but I'd like to sing also in little bits of my already created originals, is there a chicks way of doing it that would sound cool? & if not let me know,lol...

    Thanks... :0)

  • @DavinaFaerie From what I've collected off different websites girls scream the same way as guys but until they are well developed they sound a little sketchy compared to guys. Hope this helps.

  • @AwesomePantsMcCool Txs for ur comment. Have u heard Tourettes,the Aussie Metal band?I've always wanted to know if he is a female, vise versa or a trannie.He seems to have implants etc after judging from more recent vids(sexy either way)when he is younger he is a full guy...

    Then again i could be confused like others.He could actually b female able 2 pull of such awesome vocals.I don't want to sound like a guy,but want 2 pull of some awesome fem sounding screams.Do u kno how it can b done?

  • @AwesomePantsMcCool I'm developed,lol...I'm 27. Does this mean I won't sound sketchy?lol... If u kno how I can do it fill me in...

    Much appreciated... :0)

  • that was actually pretty helpful.

    you just did highs though, what do you have to say about lows?

    and do you know how to do and teach gutterals?

    thanks for uploading this!

  • That's good. I can't do it

  • Are you doing the choking sound in some special way or something? Cuz I tend to gag when trying to do that 0_o

  • So, I watched your video hoping to expand my repertoire of screams (I can do "constricted screams", "inhales", and "death gurgles"). After watching your video, I'm not sure if I have been doing the ones I already knew how to do properly. If you know anything about those screams, can you get back to me on it? If not, thanks anyway.

  • @ZahnGhor I saw this comment when looking at this video. I think your using your throat my friends call them throats. I also do these and yes it may leave a scratchy feeling or I might loose air fast, but I found a solution. Before screaming take 1 tablespoon of honey then while your screaming drink Monster Energy. I do this every band practice and my throat may hurt a tiny bit, but it doesn't kill me like everybody exaggerates it to be. If this works for you get back to me please!!!

  • @randytheshamrock95

    For the "constricted screams" I use my throat, but not the others. To do a "constricted scream", just "shut your throat" while screaming. I'm not sure if there is a technical name for this type of scream, but they sound similar to Tvangeste's vocals. I shall try your advice though. I usually don't do outwards screams though. I prefer inwards.

  • cheers man,

    I was in a band for a while but quit because I wasn't very good at screaming

    I'm sick right now so I can't really try this out but I will as soon as I'm better

  • i sound fuckin retarded my voice is cracking alot loolol xD

  • Can't do that choking sound. How the fuck have you made it?

  • Thank you, that was helpful.

  • sounded like cradle of filth :~)

  • Thanks man realy helped my band has been in dier need of someone who knows how to scream so now we don't have to just do instrmentals.

  • listen. I-HAVE-LITERALLY-WATCHED-EVERY­-SINGLE-VID-ABOUT-HOW-TO-SCREA­M-BRUTAL-FRY SCREAM.or things like that.its took me a while to finally understand how to brutal and fry scream not hurting my throat and improve...if i had watched you vid from the beginning i would be able to understand how this works right away!very nice vid man!the only thing i don't get exactly is the choke sound...i mean...i thing i can fry scream but not exactly like you... you confused me a bit... maybe i have other tech

  • this helps. thanks bro

  • This video REALLY helped me understand how you guys do it. The only thing is, whenever I even attempt to practice, I begin to gag. I haven't really researched to see if this is common or not. Any tips?

  • that choke sound hurts =/ any other tips?

  • the wisper sound hurts?

  • can you go more in depth how you make the "choking noise"?

  • the shouting part sounds like thrash metal vox hahaha!!!!

  • you are the only person on you tube that actually could explain this well thanks dude it helped a bunch:DD

  • thanks for everthing I learned a lot

  • thanks!

  • keep practising? you sounded bloody awful

  • keep practising? you sounds bloody awful

  • Actually, not bad... that's how I've been doing it for years :)

    I used the old "creaky voice" technique, with added velocity

  • thats not how you scream....AT ALL, its from your diaphragm... fuck off

  • @FullBULLownKaos Diaphragm is used for breathing, and controlling the flow of air. To control it well, you have to use "support". Support muscles are abdomen, muscles in your side (not a native speaker, pardon that) and mucless in your back - basically your whole upper body. You use support in everyday life for ex. coughing or blowing air in a balloon. Do this, and you'll feel your support mucles tighen (lover tummy (around navel) will withdraw.) Also: "singing from the bottom of your tummy."

  • @Tuomionkasi buddy, your scream is so weak, i mean. i like karl from misery signals and jake from for the fallen dreams styles. not into the weak screams sorry bro. dont like it

  • @Tuomionkasi buddy, your scream is so weak, i mean. i like karl from misery signals and jake from for the fallen dreams styles. not into the weak screams sorry bro. dont like it

  • @FullBULLownKaos May I point out, that I did not make this video? It is though possible to scream with high volume. Scream's just an effect, an add-on to a vocal mode.

  • I sound like a choking dying animal , but great tutorial anyway

  • does it matter wether you have tonissils or not?

  • I honestly don't think their is anything metal about screaming an entire song let alone musical in any way.

  • Thank you so much. I watched numerous videos that I thought were fantastic -- and I still hold that opinion -- but your video was the one that finally made it all click for me. I understood all of the mouth forms and diaphragm usage, etc. but the actual rasp eluded me. The "secondary vocals/choking sound" part made it all come together.

  • dude, you have an epic, but extremely scary scream

  • I'm a bassist but I'm tying to practice my low screams so I can scream in sync with the lead vocalist in my band, you know the high and low screams together

    This saved me from some bad habits and really helped explain the whole process, thanks a bunch

  • This is the most helpful video i've seen so far. Thank you for the help and advice.

  • is this false chord? can you get a death growl from this tech? It seems different to me idk

  • damn i get sorta a scream but then i start gagging what am i doing wrong?

  • i so hope this works :) but get coughs while tryin to do that...hust to let u know, im only 14 ...hope to get more advice from ya..

  • IS SHOUTING YOUR NOT SHOUTING. haha

  • o man tnx for this vid you rock

  • Thanks. This could be useful.

  • Thank you so much

  • @xlenny2x im a girl too lol

  • Ummmm whenever I try I always cough and have a rough dry feeling in my throat. Any obvious causes for that?

  • @dragonman0000001

    Mine did that when I first started, maybe it goes away the better you get?

  • "OOOH I'M WHISPERING WHILE PUSHING WITH MY DIAFRAGM." haaha

    I' m not vocalist. But anyway I enjoyed and learnt with the lesson. Thanks

  • Dude, seriously, this was amazing. And your whisper/shout explanation was absolutely lulzy.

  • thats a cool tutorial! how about death metal growls?

  • @BODOMmETALwolF shout from the bottom of your throat. I seem to have an easier time than most with death growls, but that might just be cuz I'm loud.

  • @MartyrOfMetal haha maybe thats true, i have a lil trouble holding notes maybe cuz im quiet, when it comes to death growls the longest i can hold a note is 5 secs haha not so good

  • @BODOMmETALwolF haha, not good at all. I can hold a growl close to 30 seconds. you just don't want to release too much breath at a time otherwise you wont make it to the end of the scream, or too little otherwise it will sound like shit.

  • @MartyrOfMetal yeah maybe thats the problem cuz i try to growl over the music since i dnt have a microphone so i have to raise my voice quite a bit so i can hear it, well today i was able to reach 6 secs xD

  • @BODOMmETALwolF hahah congrats!! the trick is, before growling, eat salty foods or warm drinks. Semen is fine, too. Hahaha just kidding. But cheez its and hot chocolate are good mixes

  • @MartyrOfMetal semens not great choice for growling but theres other things u could do with that xD cheez-its are deliciuos, but what purpose do salty foods and/or warm drinks provide.....im guessing it opens up ur vocals to a bit more allowing better sounding growls to come out?

  • @BODOMmETALwolF hahahaha damn straight! the salt is to add a little gristle to your growl, giving you an overall louder, more brutal sounding growl. The warm drink is to loosen your throat, eliminating the need for a warm up and a more easily obtainable sound.

  • give me a thumbs up if you thinkn Inleagueband is fucking gay cuz this video is the most accurate on the whole internet so i dont see whats up his fuckin cooch?

  • thats not how you scream at all, more like your burping

  • Lol i find it impossible to do this at a higher pitch

    When i go higher it comes out clean like a power metal scream

    ANY HELP SOMEONE?

  • Wow, that tutorial actually really helped me understand better. Thank you :)

  • hell yeah this is a great tutorial and you cant be afraid to practice ive been doing vocals for quite awhile and im still working on my tone

  • You know how to do a clean Metalcore or Power Metal vocal?

  • Alright i have one very important question.

    First off thank you so much for this video it got me started on screaming and now im pretty good =)

    But one problem. Every time i scream for certaint times i end up getting this massive headache. Do you know any way i can stop this? And again, thanx for this video. It helped me alot and is one of the most educational videos on youtube when it comes to screaming :)

  • yeah, that's a fry

    very good tutorial though!

  • No offense, but this is a fry scream. I used to scream like this but then I realised that there are better, more powerful ways to scream.

  • same here :>

  • Que rica la leche!

  • Actually, to get even more air, and when you get even more air, you can sing longer. Im using a technique i learned by an opera pro, and she said screamers use exactly the same techniques. You do NOT breathe into your STUMICK, you breathe into your CHEST, and your singing never comes from your THROAT, it comes from your stumick. Firstly i was screaming like you, but when i tried these i was able to hold the scream longer and it sounded even better. But in otherwise good explanation!

  • Dude.....you are really good :))

  • Can girls sing screamo?

  • @PopPrincesses yeah. really well actually.

  • @FireStreamzz2 Mmm! I'mma give it a try then. Thanks.

  • actually pretty good, sounds kinda like Dimmu Borgir in my opinion:P might just be the cam tho.

  • So im a chick, and im tryin to get this, i already have a scream kinda like walls of jericho and i wrestled a bear once. but i want something like mitch lucker from suicide silence. I did everything you said but it seems i still sound like im being choked or like a dying frog when i push with my diahpragm and add the whisper?

  • your frying.. you need to learn how to scream 100% flase cord. or how to do both technics together.

  • @dollxfacexdenied to do mitch I would suggest starting with Ressurection#9 with Randy Blyth, because that song has high pitched and a low growl. Because suicide silence in some ways is like a mix between Burn The Priest and White Chapel. they have there own little connections.

  • you can scream like iwrestledabearonce and you want to scream like this guy?

    weird.

  • lol cool vid...WHISPERING VERY LOUD! that made me laugh

  • best vid yet on how to. id say.

  • God damn, it feels like i´m about to puke when i start pushing with my throat tightened

  • then ur not doing it right

  • the funniest and most helpful vid yet thanx for posting :D

  • After researching on the anatomy of the throat, your explanation and example seem to me the best and most perfect metal screaming tutorial on youtube. Thank you very much!!!

  • very cool rock out screming rules!fifty1fiftyatl!

  • Nice one mate you know your stuff =)

  • it helps a lot, thanks man!

  • A lot of it has to do with your natural voice, some people just cant scream.

  • I assure you everyone can scream, most just don't know how.

  • I've seen that alot amongst my mates trying to do the growls I try teach them.

    They build up all that air in their stomach, flatten their shoulders etc and then drop it all, and they get is, OUUUUUUH.

    Its great xD

  • the more you opens your mouth the higher tones you'll get

  • Man this is great video, could i learn to scream like guy from Dead by April? pls respond??

  • i have one question.. amm if i test new tehnieques or practice alot can i damage my voice?? like losing it forever or making it strange?? plz respond

  • To blacktemplar:

    If done correctly, you shouldn't feel any pain at all in your throat. If it does hurt, then stop! Too much screaming can do some PERMENANT damage to your vocals. Just be sure not to practice too much!
