5 hrs guy goin hard

I love how in depth you go. I don’t sing, but as a beatboxer I never knew if I was essentially throat singing or if I was hitting sub harmonics, but from watching your videos has taught me a lot about my voice that I never knew before. Thank you.

6:07 LOVE IT! Like a crazy unhinged metal pirate scream 😃😃

I can make the fry scream low air sound, but I don’t know how to make it louder and a full scream without it sounding like just shouting and not a fry scream

Love you David! I saw you at Rockville Daytona with MIW, and Kentucky louder than life with AA, you are amazing and you have taught me how to scream and you are a great teacher. Keep up the great videos! And please keep helping DANNY MAKE THAT COME BACK! your helping so many people. Your amazing!

I love how you make it sound simple

Dude.... thanks for these tips. Your mastery of vocal expression is inspiring.

It is amazing to see how you do this! I've always wondered how you guys pulled this off.

You are the greatest and most humble teacher I’ve encountered. Big props 🙏🏼

I tried to do Gutturals and gleeked all over my chromebook screan

Advice on reducing tention/tightness in the neck when screaming? With both false chord and fry? I can't seem to figure it out, much love!

Genius

I've been practicing screaming on and off for a long time now and am getting ready to record my first EP. I do false cord lows and highs and can get great sound when just screaming, but when I incorporate words and start screaming sentences for songs, I overexert myself and it gets harder to keep the same sound and depth without getting lightheaded. So how would I go about practicing screaming actual sentences with false cord lows and highs without forcing it too much?

When doing screams (mostly fry but false chord as well) I tend to lose a lot of my higher register after a little while. When I attempt a clean high note I previously had no issue with it now sounds raspy and airy, or eventually I can't even hit the note it just sounds like if I lost my voice. Is this common and what are some exercises to remedy this? Thanks in advance David, you're a beast.

I learned how to do subharmonic bass singing much before i started learning to scream. Essentially giving the illusion of singing at a lower octave by harmonizing vocal fry with low tones. I am now trying to navigate thru scream vocals and and having troubles pulling my higher fry notes out of singing and into more aggressive without choking on my tongue. Any advice? Im getting pretty good at false chord screaming but high fry screams are really giving me issues.

Do you have any tips when fry screaming? I feel like I use a lot of supraglottal compression to compensate for using the right structures to create the fry sound.

Can you teach how to scream/growl like Ed Butcher (former I Killed The Prom Queen) vocalist? thanks!

On my side I manage to do fry in chest voice but nothing in falsetto/head voice. Is there a trick? Or is it supposed to work the same way?

PLEASE DO A TIM LAMBESIS!!

I struggle with figuring out how to weaken the falsetto to easily transfer into a higher fry scream

How do you keep from using too much air in your screams?

Hey David was just wondering if we use warms ups for cool downs and if you could touch on the Danny worsnop scream since you’ve been working with him. Thanks in advance 🙌🏼

I hiccup so fucking bad when i dont warm up

I've been screaming for about 2 years now and I'd say I've reached a point where my false-cords are quite strong and safe, but I just don't understand how to put compression safely in my scream to get some form of "hybrid" like deathcore vocalists would, whenever I try I end up accidentally doing epiglottal compression and let's just say it doesn't feel as good as false-cords. Any tips on how to get that kind of compression safely?

I found out if been using my epiglotis instead of false cord, how do I switch between them? I haven't went through puberty yet btw

i’ve managed to do a lot with false chord, going as far as highs and tunnel throat vocals, but no matter how many videos i watch or how often i practice i still can’t fry scream, how should i combat this?

Hi, can you make a video about the basic techniques of extreme singing?

If I have achieved a fry sounding distortion sound and I’ve done it for a year but it hurts and now I have a year of muscle memory for a potentially unsafe technique, what do I do? I feel so stuck. I can’t get my highs anymore, but the old sound was good

I'm beginning to find several different styles developing in fry and false chord. I am doing this as an artist and not from a band members POV. How do you suggest i practice with music if im currently not part of any band?

I use False Chord Technique and also Sing in my band but I always end up getting my Voice tired (hoarse). How to prepare myself before shows to avoid It?

When I try to do a false cord scream, I always end up doing breath distortion rather than my FC. How do I prevent this and how can I tell the difference?

Hi David, i've got a big issue, Whenever i'm practicing the fry Scream then i can't use the false cords, and also happens that When i use the false cords can't use fry, any advice of how alternate between boths? Also can't get a High Scream with a false cords

What cause hiccups in screaming? When I begin screaming sentences I tend to develop hiccups after a few sentences?

When doing false chord, is it normal and safe to feel the vibrations in your throat even if it’s not hurting?

At times my false chord sounds really good and wet , sometimes when i get nervous like to record or perform it seems they dry out and i just can’t get them to vibrate properly and my voice breaks up and sounds weak any advice anyone.

How long should I be able to scream in a session? I’ve experienced that my voice loses its strength when I’m recording over a span of 3 hours. Is that normal? I usually don’t experience any pain while screaming.

I'm a beginner with this but is it normal to have a tickle in my throat and making myself cough from it?

Hello David! I'm a clean/extreme vocalist in a band and I've been dealing a lot with one strange thing. I can scream using both techniques, but after some time of clean singing, screaming, my voice kind of switches to only false cords screams and it gives me a hard time pulling the fry out for some reason. While when I'm only doing fry screams outside of my full singing session, I do it great, can mix false cords in and out of it, change volume and etc., overall just don't have a problem with it. What is the reason or reasons for it and how do I avoid this from happening and can I get back the fry at that moment? I have a suggestion that I might be applying too much pressure on my vocal cords to get the grit when clean singing, causing it to restrain and lose its flexibility, simply burn out. Also, after an hour of singing, my head often begins to explode after every overdriven line I sing. So disbalance maybe? Thank you very much for help in advance! Just in case it matters, I've been to a doctor for a check-up and everything is perfect, so no health problems involved there.

igot a qustion how do i do the scream snarl thing will romos does in the song trough the helfire during the brackdown

Hey David! I'm just starting out with harsh vocals but I already have knowledge and a little practice (largely because of your videos), during rehearsals with my band I feel an itch in my throat, a tickle, it doesn't hurt anything, zero pain, so I just cough lightly to relieve it, drink water when I need to and continue with the rehearsal, is it normal to have this feeling at the beginning? It decreased between rehearsals. Is this something that will go away or is it something common for beginners?

When i am practicing a false chord, is it okay to feel itching in my throat?

I've been practicing for 3 years now and can do a fry scream for 20-30 seconds, but I can't for the life of me get my false chord to go on for longer than 4 seconds. If I attempt to compress it, it can be held for longer but it gets choked off and sounds terrible. Yet if I keep it uncompressed it's way too airy.

1.My voice dry up very soon n i lost the distortion,can't continue for 30-45 min as i get vocal fatigue.. 2.i basically like fry screaming but getting puzzled up to find my right vocal scale as per my songs. is there any way to recover/directions as i'm coming back to singing after almost 10 yrs.i wish if i can start from the basics.can you plz guide me? A big fan of yours from India 🇮🇳 .thanks in advance 🤘🏻

Учился гроулить у русских вокалистов и нихрена. А тебя я не понимаю,но на языке жестов на уровне ментальной связи я научился гроулить. Спасибо. Чувааааааак.

Where I have issues is lightening up on breath control and losing that distortion as if the breath control is the same as the muscle movements in my throat. I know they can be manipulated separately but that is hard. I scream like Will Ramos and Dickie Allen. I just can't ease up on it and it sound like I'm stripping away layers. It goes from heavy distortion to airy mess almost instantly or instead of it sounding airy and loose, it'll sound rapid clicking? Not quite what I'm explaining but it doesn't sound useful.

Hey so I’ve been a vocalist for several years and just recently started recording music. It’s been going well but I notice that my voice isn’t always very loud in terms of the sounds I’m making. My friend is very loud and can belt and project much more than myself and I honestly feel a bit discouraged by this at times…what am I doing wrong and is there something I can do to improve volume and projection?

Hello, is it true that modern extreme vocalists combine Fry and falsecord and get a hybrid technique?

3:33 Doing Baphomet

Please, PLEASE discuss inhales! 🙏 Thanks to your videos I have learned that my self-taught technique is fundamentally a low fry scream, just with reversed air flow so the "texture" of the sound is slightly different but equally brutal. Is there any potential physical harm in using this approach?

You are sick my guy I’ve never been able to scream until I watched one of your shorts everything just clicked the only struggle I have is with volume I don’t really know how to make it loud consistently it kind of stays at a normal speaking volume

Love the Aborted shirt

Hey bro, sorry this my fake acc ma name is Mahrad, I actually don't like the screams that sound kinda too weird as a zombie or something, Scream of Corey Taylor is my favorite, but there's point or actually a question, i think u kno he damaged his voice during 1999-2001 , because of the vocals he had he was jus tryna let everything out, but then his screaming sound totally changed , for example if u compare the sic with solway firth , u'll know what im sayin, Could u please idk reply to me as a comment or short video, and explain the whole thing about screaming like corey? And how we should do it so we won't damage our voice? I think it will be a different video cause most of your videos are about the fry & false in the zombie or monster way😂 , Those are cool but i think there will be people like me who they wanna scream like corey with out hurtin themselves, cause his screaming is kinda different it's like he pushin his voice out with a lotta pressure, I'll be so glad for your help , and also i always wanted to meet u tho idk if there's a way for that , Thank you for your useful videos ,.

😂 just started to cave man speak OH ME DOOR FOOD HUNGERS NOW TUM GRRR!.. Oh no he finally snaped😢
