Me too LETS GOOOOOO

Nik give us a vocal tutorial

When comes the cover?

Hey Nik pls do a vocal cover

Nik, you should do a Progression series of yourself learning how to scream even though you're mainly a guitarist, like a practice video once a week in-between your routines to see how you're progressing. that would be super fun and entertaining to watch

Can I use my fat rolls instead?

@@deku5268 yes👍

@@deku5268 Tyler from traitors will tell you the secret to gutterals is epic double chin

I mean everyone has abs weather they are behind fat or not

@@DrCuh That doesn't mean they are tight or even usable.

Lol same, I thought it sounded stupid, like dogs barking, 7 years later I want to be a vocalist

SAME

I thought it was the funniest thing ever and now 5 years later I’ve been practicing screaming for about 6 months lmao

The screams were why I got interested in metal lol. My first introduction being maximum the hormone's "what's up people?!"

@@user-bx8sj6qm3w nah for me it was just stupid Until I realized it was just chad energy Even now. The slam vocals I like because now I'm like: yeah its stupid. Its amazing. I grew as a person Love it

Ti capisco😂

That's the hardest thing about these. Like, "bark like a dog". I make this weird sound. And they're like "it should sound like this BHUUUUUUAAAAAAAARRRRRK". Well yea you already know how to do it. I don't. I don't sound like that 🤣

nah dude his explanation was amazing I did it first try after hearing him say that

@@NotAManYouCanMend yes it was perfect. But there's a reason there's so many different methods of teaching it. You're basically tricking your body into doing the action, so then you can identify within your body, what to tighten, what to relax, so you can do it on command later. for some people, one trick will work perfectly. for other people, that trick doesn't work because they have a different relationship with their vocal tract. Stoked that you got it so quick! My false cords are a little harder to get moving. its not so easy for me to relax them and get them moving haha

This

@@NickThomasVocals sammeee

@@camgentry lol

Practice,you'll get it imo fry screams are easier

False chords are easier in my opininion

Hey, just wanted to ask you this since you’ve had problems in the past. Do you think this technique is safe for a 5 year old to try?

@@Yuuiiytrfbh no, a five year old should focus on clean singing as the vocal chords are still in the process of developing...training in a little grit would do but not extreme vocals...just pitch control training and classical training should do for now

@@sauryavikramsingh8189 really wish I had someone telling me this when I was younger. I’m 21 now and I am struggling vocally in ways I didn’t when I was younger. Yet starting at age 13ish I was singing Korn trying to replicate his screaming and I’m so fearful I’ve caused permanent damage to my higher register. However I had an ENT tell me my vocal chords were fine. I just can’t shake the feeling I’ve damaged my voice.

@@sauryavikramsingh8189 Brah it was an obvious troll.

@@weebsarecringe2102 you never know man, I've seen some extreme parents out there haha...and even if its a troll it was light hearted humor lol

Break up with your partner !

@@kmatt420 I'd much rather stay and annoy him with my demon noises 😅💀

Sounds like your partner sucks lol.

@@julknowl Thats the spirit!

@@breanntheartist1989 that's a super weird assumption to make based on literally one thing he doesn't like to hear when I'm frustrated, but ok lol

👀

When you said “let’s go!” It reminded me of Jesse from Killswitch Engage at the start of Unleashed on their Atonement album.

@InJesperWeTrust yo i just checked that song out and it’s amazing. What genre is it?!??

@Vinter same lmao

How long did it took you ?

I mean.... there is some quality flavors 👌🏻

It DO come in grape flavor...

Just raw olive oil

Don't consume olive or any other oil for that matter. Not even vegetable oil. It raises your cortisol levels which lowers your testosterone levels (which completely kills your energy and makes you feel like shit). So does eating flax seeds or other lignans. So don't eat those. Don't consume fat free or flavored yogurt. And don't consume trans fats or hydrogenated oils (like in peanut butter). Alright, well, that's about it. See you.

@@nathan_something Are you really out here trying to tell people to not eat? Literally everything aside from water will have some amount of oil in it.

Jesus loves you

His range is phenomenal.

I mean, he is a great vocalist lol.

@@thedorkknight5772 absolute legend

He mentioned He mentioned Melissa Cross’s warmups, which I use to warmup for clean volcal as well as fry scream with satisfaction, (although I add a good 10+ minutes “fry warmup” after Melissa”s warmup to practice fry scream.) Melissa Cross’s warmup are fully explained in her first documentary about screaming, entitled “The zen of screaming.” It consists of a series of fourteen short melodic “exercises.” Each exercise repeats a short melody multiple times to cover your vocal range. The first two take the sound of “zzz.” Then is the “buzzer.” Then, with the sound of “eee,” you sing the notes 1-2-3-2-1 on one breath. Next exercise is the same, but you add notes 8 (octave)-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 after 1-2-3-2-1. Then comes “mee-gee-hee-hee-he-he-he,” all on one note, and repeat with higher and higher pitch... If you really can’t find the movie “The zen of screaming,” provide me with means of contacting you, and I’ll try to help you out.

Same. And his vocal diet. I've read that he uses ginger tea or something. But I wanna know

@@simonfitrzyk3559 Hi Simon, I remember that he indeed said to use Melissa Cross's warmups and I have heard many artists practicing with her. Found the movie (I think the full course) once but can't seem to find it anywhere anymore. Also I would really like to show andy me just in a very clear way his ways. It would be a really entertaining video and I would love to follow it step by step from himself because I find him very inspiring.

@@ghastlyshimmer That's a good one too! There are so many people who talk about food regarding singing/screaming and everyone says something different, most of the times no alcohol or stuff like red bull (fizzle drinks) or whatever, but then there are also people who appreciate alcohol for singing..... Jared Dines made a video a very sarcastic video about what to do for screaming (for example: drink ice cold water, which you obviously shouldn't be doing) but i would seriously love to know what people really do to get it :)

I love fry highs personally. Also, could you help me with projection? It's hard to me to pronounce words in my lows and growls, how to develop it?

Yeah for some reason when I go high I just instinctively switch to using my throat lol. The best thing to do though when switching from comfortable lows to highs is to make sure you’re only changing mouth and tongue placement, not your distortion.

@@nightwingx0126 yeah true man, tried it today in the car😂 but my yell doesn't sound good to me, I think it take a lot of time. I am a fry screamer but I wanted to try something new

Same! My highs sound a bit strange, i use a lot of air but still don't have a 'solid' feeling, and idk whether I'm doing it correct or wrong. I have no friends who like these things so the only thing i can do is keep watching these videos but yeah, still can't get it.

Are you able to hit clean high notes without over tensing? That could be the biggest limiting factor.

@@christianlindsey3991 no really that good man, my screams are way better than my cleans so😂

Hoy what’s up my fellow pinoy

:)

@kpop edits kpop with false chord scream?

lmao

you scream while saying the word blegh
