Hey Mike,

Just Have to say i love you guys. i love the complex vocal layers and shredding that goes on nearly mathcore type composition and meters of all of your songs. but i was wondering, since i also do very essential clean vocals for my type of metal, what are good warmups you use to preserve your voice on the clean parts but still have really good lows? i also do lows and mids and i don't want to damage my vocal chords. So any advice would be greatly appreciated and keep being awesome haha

Hey Mike, saw you at the Key Club on Monday, Im a drummer, but Im also taking music theory, and im unsure of the difference between a chord and a harmony. Is a harmony the same notes as the origional melody just up or down octaves? or do they have a root a 3rd and a 5th like regular chords?

kook1028 3 months ago

@kook1028 Harmonies are at least two notes separated by an interval. A chord has at least 3 notes.

in your music vid for "Upload Complete" i thought "he makes weird faces when he screams". and then i came here and i thought damn he's actually really good. that major 2nd harmony and the minor 2nd steps up and down in the melody sound a lot like what the vocalist from Periphery does especially in "Icarus Lives!". is that where you got your inspiration or is it the other way around?

I sent this to my voice teacher asking about your vibrato technique. The man is nationally recognized, and he was rather impressed.

have you considered using a vocoder or some kind of harmonizer live like paul masvidal does? it was great to hear you without it though.

cloud041089 6 months ago

@cloud041089 well if he can stack harmonies without it I'm pretty sure he hasn't considered it.

@ilykthings have you seen them live? it sounded to me like he doesn't use harmonies at all live. not that i'm complaining. it showcases his talent even more.

cloud041089 6 months ago

So for someone with a bass-baritone voice like myself, how do I manage making clean vocals sound good over prog-metal and thrash metal? I can do hetfield-type vocals perfectly, but I want more range. Also, nice voice bro. :D

urdynamix1 8 months ago

Finally some decent vocals coming from a "metal (umbrella term)" band today that sound great on and off the album. Vocals are serious slacking in this genre today. Check the album out people, whether you like it or not it's up to you but it will probably open you up to an unfamiliar sound. I give credit to this band for standing out.

adan921 10 months ago 3

@adan921 I think that finding your range is an excellent way to start. Find a piano or keyboard and see what notes are easy to sing. It takes tons of practice and persistence. Always be honest with yourself, that way you can embrace your mistakes and fix them. I hope that little bit of insight helps!

Hey Mike,

I'm 15 and I love prog metal. I play the drums, guitar and I'm starting vocals.

Do you have any advice you could give for me to develop my voice as I grow older?

HeavyDeath13 11 months ago 3

@HeavyDeath13 Right on! If you're just starting out you should find your natural range and get solid at that. As you get more comfortable you can expand your sound. Always challenge yourself enough to make progress, but don't overdo it.
