Description

Yell scream is probably one of the most intense and the most difficult extreme vocal techniques to master... Of course if you want to do it safe and avoid devastating your voice!

If you don't care about the level of your technique and a "vocal hygiene", doing a basic yell scream is not a big deal at all - you simply take a massive breath and then you produce the loudest and the most aggressive sound that you are able to spit out...

But if you do it that way, there is a very high probability - risk, that you will not only strain your voice (and make yourself forget what is a "comfort" when you do vocals in a matter of few weeks) but you are also creating a path of almost complete destruction of your voice (not mentioning massive headaches and dizziness that appear when you are yelling the sh*t out of your lungs).

It can last months or even years - the further from perfect is your yell scream technique the faster you will hurt your voice and it's recovery can take from few weeks to few months. It's not only a waste of your time and nerves but it simply harms your instrument - your voice, and it's impossible to replace your vocal cords as you replace strings in your guitar.

That's why it's really important to begin the yell scream practice when you are more experienced vocalist. "Experienced" means that you are able to produce even a basic, comfortable and repeatable fry scream or false chord growl and scream, and now you look for ways that can help you to increase the level of energy and intensity of your vocals!

The biggest difference between the yell scream and a "regular" fry or false chord scream, at least in my opinion, is the amount of "clean voice" in the scream and volume - in yell scream it's much higher than in "pure" fry or false chord scream. Yell scream sounds more "organic", closer to our natural sound color, but in a way more aggressive and angry "version". Chester from Linkin Park and Corey Taylor are good examples of using yell scream.

There are also vocalists like Sam Carter and Joe Duplantier who are able to do so called "pitched screaming", which is about hitting the notes with a scream,

In this free course I share with you technical information and exercises that will help you to master the yell scream using both fry and false cord distortion while avoiding straining your voice, headaches and other dangers behind the yell scream technique!

Who this course is for:

  • Extreme vocalists and singers who want to bring more intensity and power to own style of vocals
  • Experienced screamers who want to create and master a style of vocals similar to Sam Carter, Joe Duplantier and other vocalists using the yell scream and pitched scream techniques
  • Advanced screamers who are already able to use the yell scream technique but they want to make sure they are doing everything as best (and as healthy) as possible or there is something that requires fixing and how to do it!
  • Everyone interested in extreme vocals and broadening their knowledge and sets of skills
