Metal Tips: How to Scream with your Diaphragm

[immaspillblood]

It looks so easy... i still cant get it. I use my diaphram and all that but its not a scream. Its like a scream but it cracks.... any tips?

[zigzagninja]

@immaspillblood Get through puberty xD

[MrSubuti]

earphone users: your hearing is invalid when he screamed

[BlackWraith328]

@BlackWraith328 okay just finished the video and I already see an improvement based on the tips in your video. I'm the lead vocalist in a band so this'll help me alot. (I have a back-up singer/screamer but I still wanna do the screams myself, not just the singing) but I must ask, what about the elongated screams?

[tntvars]

oh my god what a nerd. this is not even close to screaming! he gives advice?

[3469534695]

I have lots of phlegm in my throat does tht affect it

[ilikepie138]

4:00

I laughed my ass off.

[DubstepMetalcore]

your goatee looks retarded



[rainfordlol2]

how come when i scream, my throat really starts to tickle and makes me feel sick? is there any way to prevent this?

[RehabForASkeleton]

can people check out my video

[yagami3242341]

i coughed after i tried this

[rrazor247]

@yagami3242341

That happened to me but i drank some water and then it was all good!!

[ILovePitbulls49]

"Your chest, of if you're a girl your tits move.." Haha, as a chick, I personally think that's the best part.

Thank you for giving your insight on that. I've always wondered how people scream the way they do.

[gamemaster012345]

Why do i get head aches?from screaming?

[ThisGirlRocksz]

Grr, i wish they could explain it to me in my own language D:

[slipbullet12]

can someone give me tips or hints on how i scream? click on my channel for my screaming video

[butmomidontwanna]

whenever i try it just comes out as a whisper );

[TheDBZBLADE]

@butmomidontwanna dude i now how you feeel ive been trying for weeks but nothing :( i just wonna be able to scream like people from AA or BMTH or ADTR

[cornflaker22]

if you spit up blood, is that normal?

[Marauder623]

@cornflaker22 no

[switchblade102]

@cornflaker22 yes, but you're screaming from the back of your throat, in other words, you're screaming wrong, and can ruin your voice.. you have to scream in the nasal region, higher up.. not in the throat.

[BlackWraith328]

@switchblade102 'but you're screaming from the back of your throat, in other words, you're screaming wrong, and can ruin your voice' <<< if only someone told me this sooner. Then again, your advice to use the nasal region makes no sense and sounded worse..

[bladidwowplayer]

u taught me what my diaphram is but not how to scream :P

[featherman7]

Just give a farking example guy

[JayVoxTV]

Guys! 50 subs and ill do a really good how to scream video!....fresh account so it may take awhile but thumbs this shit up and ill teach you guys everything i know!

[swooshKtd123]

[RabidDog51]

[BlackShadow451]

@RabidDog51 did you come here just to say this?

[DuhLiarsCheats]

@RabidDog51 You sir are a faggot

[Suspi13]

@RabidDog51 Care to elaborate?

[xXChanderson96Xx]

@RabidDog51 then y the fuck r u here?

[TemplarPyro]

@RabidDog51 Eh. It's an opinion.

[helloloveband]

@RabidDog51 Eh. You're a fuck.

[animepep123]

So, I'm a beginner but I have hit a wall. I can get noises out, but they dont sound right. They sound scratchy, and quiet, even though I can feel myself using my diaphragm. Any tips?

[Kawakka]

this is exactly how i sound, except my voice is stupidly deep for a 14 year old and i have to open reall;y wide to do highs :P

[ZomZilla]

its funny: i watched this drinking mai tea listening to lady gaga...

[adramelek7]

@ZomZilla your fucked up LOL

[djolarola]

4:03

I was not expecting that, and you scared the shit out of me xDDD

[YngwiesDaughter13]

hahaha "if you're a girl and your tits move" hahahahahah

[sdashdha9]

Ok.. So I have a problem. I can do it pretty well In a wisper! When i actuallly scream its not a flat tone. It jumps all over the place and it is raspy! Any tips??

[BeaaarmaN]

@sdashdha9 me too

[slingshooter08]

I'm a brass player, this is exactly how we breathe. I have a huge head start.

[ColinGreen18]

"if your a girl, your tits move" lmao!

[startrekredneck]

YEAH YEAH LET IT OUT AND TAKE IT IN whaaa hhaha

[WillComment0nYourVid]

I can scream fine, it doesnt hurt at all infact it feels good :D However, whenever I do scream after about a hour or so, my voice starts to go away. Like, I can still do lows jsut fine, but I have to push harder for highs. Is that normal?

[animemefreak74]

I started doing other things while this video was playing. Your screaming almost made me shit myself.

[JamesJanish1995]

Thank you very much. I understand that this is an old video but I have been screaming for a while now and I always had the question "How do I scream using my Diaphragm." And thanks to you, you answered it. 8D

[xShadowSniper22]

Fuck, I've been gathering big gulps of air in for a year and that's been going straight to my lungs? No wonder it hurts, anyway glad I found that out, thanks bro

[MrSillyJason]

"If you're a girl your tits move" lol

[GModBMXer]

4:00 wtf.....

[slavesbydesign]

Hey I can scream really well and have been for a year now but my problem is that I can only scream for about a half hour before I've exhausted my voice. I only have time to practice once or twice a week now and over the summer i barely practiced at all, I've also been sick a couple times but at my peak I could scream 2 hrs worth of songs before exhausting my voice. how can i build my vocal endurance back up?

[facecheek]

shave that beard. Shave. The. Beard.

[TheBrookie2Cookie]

dude ur a fuckin fag go ffuck urself dildo u cant sing worth SHIT

[Airasyn]

"Damn I wanna get this air out" XD

[ScarfacETNTCraftBoy]

austin, where are you talking about???? your scream is awesome

[pinoypower247]

i work in a haunted house and part of my scare is screaming into people, but everytime when i stop between scares, my head will start to feel compressed and i would start to feel dissy and nauseous.  is there anything i can do to avoid that feeling

[MartSim1095]

@pinoypower247 i just think its about drinking more water and breathing properly.. do not ''over breathe'' take normal breaths using your diaphragm, this will help you to push it pour correctly. and the thing about being dizzy and feeling weird is all about air. When your brain has too much or not enough oxygen

Remember, breathe normally with the diaphragm. control your breath pressure. and drink water. once you've practiced for a while you won't even think about it anymore :)

[pinoypower247]

@MartSim1095 ok, thanks for the tips

[hibbins125]

thanks for this video bro, you really explaned it well and helped me out alot :)

[maitljon]

ok i must be doing some thing wrong because every time i try to scream i sound like im blowing hot breath in the air... there s no distortion at all... is there a difrence in sond when you dont use a mic.... help

[BTBAMsean]

"Lemme use a metaphor: a diaphragm is a lot like a piston" thats a simile LOLZOLZOLZOLZOZLOZLZOLZ

[mmcolony]

@BTBAMsean a simile is a type of metaphor. true fact.

[Verezification]

@BTBAMsean Go back to 3rd grade English and please learn the difference between a metaphor and a simile.

[JustinsHQ]

@BTBAMsean Shut the FUCK up troll.

[agentkro]

@BTBAMsean But technically speaking, a metaphor is the umbrella term for such rhetorical figures of speech. Congratulations, you're an asshole!

[BTBAMsean]

@agentkro It was a joke, relax, dick.

[agentkro]

@BTBAMsean I will end it here, but do you see the irony in calling me a dick?

[whiskerjuice]

@BTBAMsean AAHAHAHAHHA I NOTICED THAT TOO

[TheBillyMaysShow]

how do you get melodic yells/screams like Tool's or lp or system of a down?

[Anthonythebest1]

oh and from 4:02 u sound like a drunk pirate lulz

[Anthonythebest1]

[SoupyRS]

[fmarcum01]

@Anthonythebest1 Cool, I wanna sing like Angela Gossow.

[fidgetingfinch]

@Anthonythebest1 Specifically I want to master the scream at the beginning of Well Enough Alone. :)

[RisetheDead88]

@Anthonythebest1 GOD COULDNT AGREE MORE!!! i have been listening to them all day xD

[neotsunami1988]

Haha!! I just choked on my flem trying this! lolz XD

[Sk8rman1000]

@neotsunami1988 do you mean phlegm?

[SES4LIFE1]

i got punched in my diaphragm and i couldn't speck 4 a min true story :D

[Roflusaurus]

[dylan111291]

[EliTheRocker]

Ooh I think I did it o.o just I'm sick so I can't do it "right".

[RomeowIsFluffy]

[druvinskii1]

[wrcxd04]

[OlidaPanda]

I just cant fucking scream ;o

[Jont93]

@OlidaPanda please dude its something you just cant learn within 5 min

[OlidaPanda]

@Jont93 im a slow learner :c

[YTPNoob]

I keep using my diaphragm as you said to in this video, but it's REALLY hurting my vocal chords.

What am I doing wrong?

[Jont93]

@YTPNoob

have you been warming up your voice or have you been drinkin some water?

[YTPNoob]

@Jont93 Yeah I've been drinking a shit ton of warm water.

[CalebAshworth]

Hey, I've been screaming for about 4 and a half months now.

I false cord. And I can make a scream, no pain, swelling, light headedness, etc.

But, I can only hold about a 5 second scream? How can I make my screams longer?

[saberman41]

@CalebAshworth basicaly keep doing it more after you have got your range like anything just practice

[Jont93]

@CalebAshworth

you need to quit smoking and start tranning  its your lungs

[SmileyFaceChick02]

This Is By Far The Best Tutorial On How To Use Your Diaphragm While Trying To Scream I've Seen! Thanks So Much, Yo! ♥

[nadiesabemiuser]

[WaveyDuDe96]

[LilGamer99]

[WaveyDuDe96]

@LilGamer99 shut the fuck up emo bitch go cut yourself XD

[paintballmon135]

@WaveyDuDe96 Jesus christ your fucking stupid. Tehy're making a tutorial, the have to talk

[WaveyDuDe96]

@paintballmon135 what the fuck did u write you are the stupid one

[karlysamuell]

here's a tip for those of complaining about the diaphragm issue: the diaphragm is used to help the loudness of your voice! yes, you do speak/scream/sing whatever with your vocal chords, but if you want to be loud and avoid feeling out of breath and damaging vocal chords, make the air come from your diaphragm, not your lungs. then you won't be straining your throat while trying to change the pitch of your voice.

[AbyssOfTheTwilight]

@karlysamuell

Im sure they would...if that wasnt physically impossible...

[bukkju]

@slcanavan, smoke.

[xrichardlardnerx]

this guy helped me a lot, I've done my own how to vocal video.. mainly aimed at fans of the ghost inside, stick to your guns,for the fallen dreams etc

[BigEvan96]

@xrichardlardnerx sick! TGI is the best of the best! SCREAM/YELL

[zimPol06]

I use exhale when screaming and inhale for low growls. . . just to balance my throat. . . it works for me. . .

[slcanavan1]

Hi, I used to scream and then i stopped for about 5 months, now I wanna go back to it. When I am trying to it again now it sounds kind of... not smooth, or chunky i gess u could say. any suggestions?

[orphinoftheworld85]

A good way to think of it is to act like youre pooping, like pushing. it sounds stupid but it helped me a lot.

[TNA796]

@orphinoftheworld85 dude, holy hell that actually works hahaha

[orphinoftheworld85]

@TNA796 yeah my vocal teacher taught me a long time ago haha

[rageboyRM]

Dude I' m totally putting "LET THE AIR FLOOOWW!!!" in to the next song I write.

[Erubus245]

My screams arent very loud but they sound good, i feel like im doing it wrong how do i make them loud?

[devinhghill118779]

why is it when people on youtube scream it looks like they are getting tazed

[MrKevinDelveau]

/watch?v=HLGYrCTzdoQ positive encouragement... advice?

[JustinDunGoofed]

You use your diaphragm to push out the air from your lungs, hence creating a scream.

Fucking idiot.

[omartron]

@JustinDunGoofed hence, using your diaphragm to help the vocal chords, hence WITH :P

[Psykokiller1]

so any person can scream? :s

[SoulReaper677]

lol you suck at growling or screaming XD

[spongebob1227]

@ERPPP M Shadows :D!

[MojoPyxyiKiza]

You make screaming look so easy...LOL

[Jont93]

@MojoPyxyiKiza

its easy lol

[MojoPyxyiKiza]

@Jont93 Yeah! I finally got it! I was at a Trivium show and I figured it out :D Great haha

[Jont93]

@MojoPyxyiKiza

[SolumDementia]

I know inhale, but I'm dying to know medium to high exhales

[sulav452]

He's screaming with his Original vocal chord. I don't think he's using his false vocal chord....

[SaintsofLA]

what type of scream does mike hranica

[iSUPERNOODLES]

drink water to help not lose your voice

[ReneeTheGreat3]

I can scream but like, I can only scream for a few songs, then when I try, it sounds like i'm losing my voice. What am I doing wrong?

[Katacklysm]

@Blackstar1267 tht means u dont have the natural born talent. sorry buddy, ur onna have to find a different calling

[RockIsMyLife2011]

im trying and it still feels like my vocals are getting scratched

[SammiLovesStacy]

thanks dude for teaching me how to breath. ;p

no im kidding lol, this did help. <3

[PrettyFlyForAZombie]

@seigen570

Basically only scream if you don't wanna be able to sing like shitty style's like all time low etc.. If you only want to scream, and you do it correctly using your diaphragm then if won't ruin your voice. If you scream from the throat, it damages your vocal cords, and then will ruin your voice. Just make sure your doing it correctly, and you dont blame on stopping screaming and changing to a different genre of singing.

[firemonkey4me]

Could you pleasse see how mine is D=

/watch?v=EM5EQENjj-4

I've just got it to a good place, i think xD I'm not sure o.O

But i've got the diaphram breathing down well

[Mrguitarist96]

i jump hight when you begin

[seigen570]

Hey guys.

I've practice alot, the last months, and finally, i can scream.

I've seen comments like ''Screaming can ruin your voice''

I'm in a band, and sing alot, and i wondering: Is it true? Does screaming ruin your voice, even if you do it right?

Appreciate the response

[Captainhookisback]

Hey there! I've just got one question: First of all thanks for your help! I've finally found the right spot and way to do a screamed vocal (the distortion thing works well!). But one can't actually here it 'cause it's too quiet. How do you exactly put pressure on your scream? What part of the body is usually responsible for the volume? Isn't it the vocal cords?

[blablablamerysia]

OMG I had headphones at full volume and at 4:01 I just fell off my chair XDDD

[pandacutiex3]

@blablablamerysia thnx for the warning o v o

[MARiiECOoREE]

I like how you explain things, you are very good :)

[SaintsofLA]

what type of scream does mike hranica do...i think its a fry scream but im not sure:)

[NightMare13001]

my throat starting hurting just watching him talk about it

[InfernapeCalib]

@ERPPP m. shadows= best vocalist and best screamer. (my opinion don't be all ''NO YOU BITCHASS NIGGERFACE M SHADOWS SUCKS) everyone has their opinions so dont hate)

[DefaultAnonAccount]

@InfernapeCalib dude get off his nuts. Hes okay but not the best.

[InfernapeCalib]

@DefaultAnonAccount smd

[DefaultAnonAccount]

@InfernapeCalib lol typical a7x faggot. I bet you don't even listen to their old shit.

[InfernapeCalib]

@DefaultAnonAccount i do, and I like it. once again suck my dick.

[DefaultAnonAccount]

@InfernapeCalib You might be into that. Buttttt I'm gonna have to pass. Enjoy sucking dick.

[InfernapeCalib]

@DefaultAnonAccount do you think you're accomplishing something. because you're not. If i state my opinion. read it and fuck off. and don't say anything. and if you're gonna say" SHUT UP YOU TROLL, YOU STARTED THE FIGHT SO YOU'RE JUST AN INTERNET TROLL" that statement is completely wrong and you know it. i stated my opinion then you were a dick about. have fun knowing that you suck a life.

[DefaultAnonAccount]

@InfernapeCalib lol why u mad tho?

[InfernapeCalib]

@DefaultAnonAccount I could say the same to you

[DefaultAnonAccount]

@InfernapeCalib >look at all my previous statements

>realize that none of them imply that I'm mad.

lolwat.jpg

[InfernapeCalib]

@DefaultAnonAccount fapfapfapfapfapcumcumcumcumcum­cum

[BrittanyVernier]

I wanted to see this video to know if you knew what you are talking about (because i was in choir for 8 years so we learn all this shit) and you're very right. Good that you're educated. Sucks for me though because i want to learn how to scream but all the choir rules are stuck in my head and prevent me in some odd way.

[SeniorSmurf1]

just so you guys know, dont try screaming if you have asperations to be a good singer, it will fuck you over....trust me

[mattz369]

im still a little confused about the whole diaphram thingy.if i flex my abs when screaming does that use proper use of my diaphram or no?

[romanthemusician]

"LEEEEEEETTTT THE AIR FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!"

totally brutal lyrics hahah
