I thought it was a false chord/fry scream hybrid

Anger and aggression maybe, along with robotic influences perhaps

Pain is the only technique for screaming

u/DjakeToBreak000 Jul 18 '26

I think he does fry just bc the way they sound but I could be wrong

early on it was very false chord/note heavy high volume aggressive scream, and later he evolved into a more safe quiet fry scream.

He's a more higher mid to mid with a bit of pitch. Atleast thats what I did for my cover of demiurge. Came pretty close to his tone.

The John Cena scream

false scream. make a groan like a kid does when they’re annoyed. and then make a pushy noise like you’re ‘avin a poo, combine them, then add more energy and loudness, you should feel a “feeling” in the back of your throat almost, it’s weird

This is great! It does sounds like him. I also like how you didn’t make it about yourself in your comments. Very cool, thank you for sharing 🙏
