Vocal Coach explains Zaher Zorgati of Myrath! w/vocal tracks! 

YESSSSS, I'VE BEEN SAYING THIS Especially on You've Lost Yourself from 3:25 onwards, the "time is running out" part not only does he sound SO much like Myles but the entire song actually has an Alter Bridge vibe!!!

You should come to Tunisia, walk in the tight streets of the old old city drink a coffee smoke à nargil in the oldest coffee shop in the world since 1240 after that you gonna feel it more because you will be able to hear the Maloof in myrath melodies. 😁

@@bouchendirakarim751 I would love to do this more than you know and is part of my plan when I get certified to teach English as a Foreign Language. I want to truly experience the culture so that I become closer to the music and its people. I love other cultures so much! So full of life and color and beautiful customs.

@@suckingonsuga9061 you will be very welcome and you wouldn't go home after that 😂😂 I work in the ministry of tourism by the way so if you need anything... 😊

Seba Melmann He also reminds me a bit of Russell Allen but higher pitched haha since Russell is a baritone

@@voicehacks Really? I always though Jorn was a high baritone and Russell a low tenor. How can I tell when they sing high and also use compression / distortion? Also, on a personal note I don't think he sounds like Jorn at all.

​@@voicehacks Wait, Russel Allen is a baritone? I can't sing along to pretty much anything he's done as it's so high pitched all the time, and could probably sing an octave lower even on his deepest parts. I'm a baritone myself (not a singer, though, and since dealing with whooping cough I lost my falsetto permanently and also lose more than an octave within an hour of waking up in the morning every day). Symphony X songs are all really high pitched for me as a guy with a fairly medium deep voice. I've heard Zaher go deeper on Myrath's last record than I've ever heard Russel come even remotely close to, and can sing along to more Myrath songs. Russel is singing a lot in girl territory from my perspective (his stuff would oftentimes be a struggle for my mom, who's an alto), as are a lot of famous singers. Tenors seem almost rare in real life, most guys I know don't have high pitched voices at all.

Russell is definitely a baritone with a range of D#2-A5 pretty textbook actually. It is a higher leaning baritone but he has been able to get even lower than D#2 in many settings but it’s just that to be considered consistent range we go with the stronger note of D#2 as the lowest. But a tenor like Zaher can only sing to G2 and aren’t getting anywhere near the D# range. Many baritones have wide ranges and flexible voices. We have to remember that our ranges are only transposed up or down about a 5th from each other. If you can’t keep up with Russell’a high notes it’s a technique issue or you are a lower baritone or a bass and it’s not in your range. You could always transpose it down and see if that works for you.

​@@voicehacks It's just that his voice sounds so high as well, for a lack of a better term it doesn't sound very manly when he's using his clean sound (not a bad thing though, he's one of my favorite singers). His timbre just doesn't sound deep at all, quite the opposite compared to most singers I listen to, which is probably one reason why I always perceived him as a tenor. I never considered the possibility that he wasn't. Maybe he sings lower in other projects, I've only heard him in Symphony X and never noticed any low parts (maybe they're there). The ranges are probably a little higher than I expected, Russel "always" sings in what I assumed to be the comfort range for a tenor since it's a few octaves above typical low notes. My lowest recorded note is just a B1, although I can usually only comfortably go down to E or D (again, my voice is broken and easily gets tired). I don't sound like a bass, but given how high the ranges seem to be on paper I may as well be one. I guess some singers just have an extra usable octave before having to use falsetto, so that they're effectively able to cover at least two voice ranges. Many of Russel's notes have to be way above usual baritone range. Edit: Just heard some low speaking notes of his, which is quite surprising as he never really sings lower than low tenor range from what I was able to find. He sounds relatively feminine in his higher register, I guess he just has a decent range. He should use his lower register more IMO, it gets a little tiresome with all male singers trying to sing in what's pretty much female register all the time. Johnny Cash is one of the few who let the low notes shine, although he had quite a range if he wanted to as well.

the band told me Berber specifically but I wouldn’t be the authority on that answer
