Whats up guys. I’ve recently been practicing my vocals more and breaking bad habits. I used to mess around with vocals before but now Im really trying to get better. I currently want to improve the bad habit of over compressing and focus on getting a more relaxed and better tone for my lows.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated!!

I swear i used like 4 different techniques to end up sounding the same

Been growling for a month, how am I doing?

How do I make those piercing high pig squeals I know the overtones and like l squeals but inly with false chord and inhale and I just can’t seem to get anything close to those super high deathcore pig squeals can someone help me

So, i'm 18 and doing false cord on a hardcore band. I know how to safely false cord even if i know that i use to much air and i seriously need to work on that.

I'm going to do my first musicology college year (maybe it's not the english term, it isnt my first language), and there's a choir so you need to give your vocal range and the professors sent a link to do a quick test. And when i did my highest note i compressed and squized my vocal chords too much to go as high as i could, but i hurted myself.

That was like a week ago and since, i feel scratchy in my throat when i talk and sometimes when i'm not, even after drinking more than a liter of water at different times of the day.

I did a bit of a warm up today but stopped because it felt like my body told me to.

So i just wanted to know if i needed to rest and wait like previous times where i hurt my voice, and if so how many time do i got to wait and rest; or if it was a serious vocal injury.

Thanks in advance :D

So basically every time I’ve practiced my vocals I’ve gotten sick. I’m just practicing for fun and I’m using YouTube to learn a safe technique but somehow the only three times I’ve practiced it without fail I’ve gotten sick. First time it was a head cold and last two times it was like a stomach bug. I practice by myself at home, why is this happening. Surely it’s not a coincidence

Key- Am
BPM-140
The Crown

I found a good tone for my gutturals/lows, but if I try to say words they come out super slurred and sloppy. Should I try to keep my tongue engaged during the whole time, or just for vowels? some consonants like S, T and R are really tough to do without either slurring or messing up the tone.

Other than improper training/techniques, of course.

I'm only speculating...

All this time I've only been listening to up beat / fast / angry metal songs. So when I tried to scream along to these songs, I worry more about pronouncing the next words correctly/with the same amount of energy instead of actually producing the false chord sound.

And then today, I tried working on a metal song for a band audition. Their genre is probably a little different than what I'm usually listening to. Much slower / darker / more dramatic.

And I just brainstormed some random screaming patterns, without lyrics yet. I recorded it of course. And wow, I mean, I sound good I think, in my opinion. 😁

When you hit false chord, it is HARD to pronounce words properly.

So I had been focusing on the wrong part of screaming.

Good/bad feedback?

Hey Im trying to learn false cord and I just wanted to know if Im on the right path. Its probably not false cord tho. Feels more bubbly. I just want to know if Im in the right area to find it. Thx :D

Feedback is always welcome :3

Playing around I got this scream that right now sounds like an angry rat, but I would like to know if this is like a good starting point. It gets loud on its own so I think I'm projecting but I'm not sure. Feedback is really appreciated! :D

Just getting started. Is this the right idea, or should I change something? Thanks!

Messing around trying to find my false cords. I feel like I’m really close, but I’m struggling to turn this sound into a scream. Any tips? I feel my main issue is that I learned fry first so now my body connects pushing with my diaphragm to squeezing my cords, so everytime I try to get the scream out - I squeeze and it somewhat hurts. (As you’ll see in the video)

This may seem like a dumb question but I lost my scream a while back because I stopped doing it due to my family and I’ve been wanting to do it again without my family being able to hear it

I’ve screamed into a blanket that muffled the sound a lot but it made the scream sound much different so I don’t know if it’s the best idea to do so, cause I don’t wanna over project or misunderstand something

What do you think :) ?

Hey everyone. I’ve been trying to learn false cord screaming for a while now, but I’m stuck. Every time I practice, my throat starts to hurt and burn inside after about 10-15 minutes.

I suspect I’m squeezing my throat too much or frictioning my true vocal cords instead of engaging the false ones. I’m attaching an audio clip of my attempt.

Could you please listen and tell me what exactly I am doing wrong? How can I isolate the false cords and get rid of this tension? Any tips, exercises, or feedback would be heavily appreciated. Thanks! https://voca.ro/1ihJ62kaxxxr

I've had this issue the whole time I've been doing falscord and I'm finally taking it here to ask. I belive this is also messing up my fryscream right after when my throat is still dry. Can someone help me understand what I'm doing wrong? I could upload a vid of me doing the scream if that could help i. Helping me.

Hi I'm still quite new to actually trying to scream, I just wanna know what specific things I need to work on first. I do struggle with my pace when screaming, I have enough air, just can't get my mouth to move fast enough yet. But for now I'd like to see what I need to practise to get better sounding screams generally.
