Screaming

[Mazrocon]

btw, how much does the tickets of LP costs...? any idea...?

No Idea... some concertes don't allow kids under 18 years old cause of alchohol.

Really?

An Oasis gig was the first place I ever got pissed Great night that.

I can & do scream, but only on purpose, & only as a BG singer. Trouble is, it burns my voice out PDQ. I am trying to tone it down a bit now.

there are a few different types of 'scream', but in general if you want length and quality it all has to come from the lungs, keep the throat out of it.

if you have a sore throat afterwards then not only is it being done wrong but you will damage urself. I personally have no problem with long screams because i'm a piper and therefore i am made almost entirely out of lung, with a few limbs here and there.

bands i like that scream (either as main vocals, or just time to time):

Lamb of God (heavy metal)

Cult of Luna (doom)

Rosetta (doom)

Callisto (doom)

Boris (Japanese Noise-Rock)

Biffy Clyro (just plain good)

Tool (prog rock)

A Perfect Circle (prog rock)

ISIS (doom)

Opeth (jazz doom)

Rage Against The Machine (rap-rock)

Tool screams are the best way to practice, Maynard can just hold it for aaaaages.

although the earlier Lamb of God stuff, when they were a 3 piece known as Burn The Priests, Randy Blythe manages a 32 second full on gut roar its nice.

Jazz doom ?

WTF.

[Fapbreathe]

Jazz doom ?

WTF.

yup.

probably should have put that next to Callisto as well actually, for some tracks.

Jazz Doom is nice.

I like all kinds of screaming. I guess I like metal a lot more than most people do. It represents human aggression. It's hard to explain why I like it so much.

I dont mind screaming if you mean like an Ian Gillan (deep purple) type scream.

I dont like death metal or screamo but for one exception.

I can tolerate the Growling by akerfeldt in Opeth. I am getting used to it and even beginning to like some of it . They are an incredible band so I will listen to the growls as I enjoy all other aspects of their music. Kinda like Rush, Sabbath, Pink Floyd, deep purple rolled into one.

Saw them live here in sept and they were fantastic. I felt like the oldest guy there and stood at the back.

I hate screamo, it sounds like adolescent girls. But old punk is alright, like Fear.

I never scream, I'm the stereotypical image of an opera singer.

Im Just curious what people think of songs that scream, like heavier rock, metal, death metal and other things.

Myself, I can scream, and intend to use it as as backup when recording at some point.

Who else can scream, and what are your opinions on it?

I can't even "go there". Whenever I hear someone scream I feel sympathetic pain in my vocal folds!! Good luck with that.

My only advice is that this is one vocal trick one uses "sparingly". It can lead to nodes and polyps in nothing flat!

I enjoy screaming (not all of it, some songs obviously), but I prefer a blend of singing normally and screaming
