Learn to use your voice like Nico and Kevin. Join my free voice course: chrisliepe.com/free-your-voice/

Chris has definitely jumped on the EC train! Less than a month ago you were slightly confused by Elisabeth and Ramos' recommendation... and now you're already an EC pro with an incredible amount to learn about "our guys" 😁

You are a good teacher. I’m going to get your course for my 6 year old daughter.

This was a MASSIVE sing along at the gig And you'd be very proud, I screamed a lot & I could still talk absolutely fine after the show so I was doing it right!

they actually have a lot of behind the scenes videos, and they are always fun to watch

Man, I love your vocal analysis. I learn things every time. And every member of EC is so damn amazing. As for Nico, I've gone and explored the band he was in before (To the Rats and Wolves), and I'm... wow, the things he did there were amazing. I recommend just sitting down and going through a few of their songs. I can't wait until EC starts releasing more music, because we haven't even seen their full potential. I'm so freakin' excited!!!

I think it would be fun for you to do a double reaction to their tracks 'MC Thunder' and 'MC Thunder 2.' The first one features their old singer, and the second one features Nico (I think it's actually one of the first songs they've recorded with Nico). I'd love to hear you dissect the different approaches.

I think their beautiful tones make the transition between the clear and harsh vocals work so well. They fit both styles. Love them and love your explanations ❤

For me you are one of the best Vocal Teachers on KZfaq. You make it really entertaining, funny and not cringe and the way you are explaining the different methods, not only in metal but also in singing, makes it really interesting to hear what you are about to say. Keep up your great work.

This cover lives rent free in my head. The metal instrumentation on the choruses is addictive to my brain. I love that you decided to do this song. It really shows off both vocalists wonderfully

I don't know why but "Ooooh, behind the scenes!", had me giggling. XD

This is what is so good about metal, the growth and adaptability. No avenue is left unexplored and it can be confusing when bands are dropped into sub categorise (to me its just all flavours of metal) but the breadth of talent and imagination is amazing.

The amount of musicality to Kevin's harsh vocals is unmatched. Just looking at the progression from Hypa Hypa to here is ridiculous! I always go back to We Got The Moves for what I would consider the best example of the range he has, but I actually think it's done better here. It's especially evident in those base fry notes, as well as his first verse.

I feel like you would love Neon from them, even though there is no video for it yet. It is “the softer side” of the AMAZING Electric Callboy! So Good!

Love seeing your stuff on my feed!

This channel is an invaluable source of knowledge. Thank you for letting us drink from this fountain.

I'd love to watch the Behind The Scenes with you!

You have nowhere near as many likes and subs as you deserve on this channel! Among the vocalist channels you are one of the best! The honesty, teaching, technical inspiration... just can't beat it!

Thank you for introducing me to EC! trust me on this, but you HAVE to do a video on "Electric Callboy - HURRIKAN" next! ( make sure you make it until the end of the song 😆)

I've recomended Jonathan Young before, i think you'll realy love his placement and playfullness while being realy agressive at times. Gret work by the way 🥰

Legend has it you can travel to the German countryside and still hear them practicing their handshake

As a guitar player, I’ve never paid attention to the phonetic changes. Thanks dude 👍

Love your enthusiasm and your analysis. Would like to see you analyze hurrikan from these guys

WOW you have really nice fry vocals! :o

I love your voice analysis, even though I can't sing a note. Which is why I learned to play instruments instead. LOL

There is a band that covered EC's "Hypa Hypa" and the band is called We Butter The Bread With Butter, you gonna loooove to analyze that song trust me! Also WBTBWB have their own great songs, such as "20km/h", "Nice" or "Dreh Auf!" I'd love to see those on this channel!

Gotta check out hurrikan and MC thunder II by them. Maybe a double feature because hurrikan isn’t very long.😆

Amazing as always! You need to hear the "Your man" Cover from Alexander Eder! He's german and was on the voice germany. I just found the performance after not watching it for 2 years and fell in love again! I absolutely love his voice, you gotta hear that performance either in private or in a video. Either way, you need to hear it and maybe give a little feedback on how you liked it? 👀

There are a lot of good EC tracks lately. "Spaceman" has some nice vocals from Nico in it and features a German rapper.

I adore your analysis videos and I love EC songs. They give me so much fun especially when it was hard to meet with friends and family. By the way I find Kevin's Karen haircut hilarious.

I think a lot of people over look just how good Kevin is because of the type of music they make. IMO he is one of the best!! I would recommend Hurrikan next, its weird but shows just how good they both are at what they do.

Amazing, awesome and funny at the same time. Pure beauty for my ears. EC have even a few more serious songs like Parasite, Mindreader, Hate/Love and the special one "Hurricane". Could be interesting for you. Have a wunderful day. 😊

Man, you are the artisan trainer of voice!

Theres awesome behind the scenes videos (with good subtitles btw) for many of the newer ec songs. also please check out the acoustic studio session of pump it, its absolutely fantastic and very different

There's a short (might be a longer video) of Nico singing Linkin Park Crawling... it's pretty amazing.

Been loving ecb too man so much good stuff compacted into their music. friendly reminder to check out shannon hoon of blind melon i need to hear someone more educated talk about his approach and technique, love the content as always ❤

i used to just listen to music, but with you all breaking it down vocally it shows what a great job artists and especially singers do. have you ever listen to Nina Hagen song Naturträne? would be interesting to hear your thoughts an her voice. and since its dec 31st... happy new year!

Chris! Still waiting for you to react to Dennis Lyxzén of “Refused!” They’re a Swedish Punk band and the singer has some really gritty distorted singing! I’d recommend the songs “New Noise” or “Françafrique!” I’d love to hear your thoughts on his technique! (Finally. 😩)

Hurrikan by Electric Callboy is sick!!! Would love your breakdown and reaction!

Sometimes you make me scared a bit😂 but your content is 🔥

Will their next video be "tekkno train" ?? Take it apart please, I love your reaction)

Hi. As always a very nice voice analysis. I've got two more bands here that you may never have heard of. But it's definitely worth checking them out. The bands are: Orbit Culture with the song North tar of Nija (live in studio) and the band Alleviate with the song Broken. Best regards

Random thought ...you could totally be a voice over for a movie like Pixar/Disney. Haha but anyway, I enjoy the different ways that a person can sing and scream properly without injuring their vocal chords

Please check out Neon off their recent album! Some INSANE vocals from Nico!!!

I love the fact those legs sticking out are Kevin's lol

ISince I have found out about these guys a few months ago Nico has become one of my favorite vocalists. I absolutely love his voice. In their live shows they did a medley of songs one was "Let It Go" and another was Backstreet Boys I Want It That Way. It was so good and you can hear how good Nico is and that he can really have that pop sounding voice too. You should check that out if you can find it

Yasss Finalllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.... Goosebumps for Nico's voice in this song and live wow I loved seeing your reaction to Kev its a good one, this is the best version of this song... They do a few different pop songs live we got Backstreet Boys and Frozen Let it go and its was cringey but fun

Would love to see you break down Unleash the Archers - Call Me Immortal

Hey Chris I think a Reaction to "Lø Spirit" would really fit in with your channel he does a lot of those transitions from a soft breathy voice to false cord engagement while belting and short switches to head voice if you are interested I would love to see it ^^ A good example is "Mind of mine"

Unrelated but, you should do an analysis on Tyler Eads of the band The Wise Man’s Fear, he’s an amazing clean vocalist I think the best songs for you to check out would be: - What went wrong - With my lesser self - The strength to bury a friend All bangers imo

Hey Chris! May I suggest someone to do vocal analysis on? I'm in love with Mariusz Duda's voice from Riverside. I don't know if it's technique or just his natural tone... would love to hear your take on it. A simple yet beautiful song is "Coda" (from Riverside) for example.

Yes, "fry screaming" is definitely an oxymoron, for sure man!

Chris, there's a growing rock band from Utah called Citizen Soldier. The singer, Jake Segura, attempted suicide in late 2015/early 2016 and is now a therapist who writes songs based on personal experiences, things said by fans and things said by some of his therapy clients. Not only are the songs awesome but his voice carries a huge amount of emotion in each song. I think that a great song to introduce his voice to you is Reason To Live since it's one of the most emotional ones and has a lot of different vocal qualities that he uses.

Finally someone who recognizes "down". The song itself is amazing, but that "down" scream faszinated me from the first time I heard this.

If you haven’t, “Hurrikan” by these guys is an absolute MUST!!!

You need to react to Dance Gavin Dance. I recommend we own the night, man of the year, die another day, synergy, all thier stuff is amazing.

would be interesting to see a castrop x spandau reaction

I think you should react to some songs by band called static dress. Especialy the song called di-sinter. The vocalist Olli Appleyard has some really unique vocals.

I've got a suggestion for you to analyse: Igorrr - Grosse Barbe (french for "Big Beard", though that won't tell you anything about the song or the performing artists). Due to the unusual mixture of musical genres and instrumentation, Igorrr generally falls under the category "Marmite" when it comes to people's response to the music. They either love it or hate it. The main composer of the band has dubbed his music "baroque-core", which really doesn't prepare you for the electronic elements that are a staple in pretty much all of his compositions. Regarding my suggestion, I think I should point out that you only hear the male vocalist, Laurent Lunoir, who has since left the band. I also advise to listen to the album recording, as the song doesn't have an official video and the available footage made on cell phones at live performances doesn't do the sound any justice. The song is a wild ride, even without the distortion and clipping that comes with a low quality recording. That said, I'm sure you will check out live performances after hearing the studio recording, because you'll barely believe what you hear ;-) Anyhow, "Grosse Barbe" will blow you out of your socks if you decide to give in, I promise! I've tried to suggest this song to Elizabeth from TCV, because the vocals very much invade her area of expertise, but she's not taken up my suggestion. Maybe you can suggest it to her if you like it. I would love to hear either of your takes or even better, both of them in one video maybe? Obviously if your undoubtedly busy schedules and logistics allow for another co-op...

I feel like vocal Fry Can be done on the vocal fold themself or on the vestibulare fold ,just like cookie Monster and scream... So Fry screaming may be acurate ,when i push in this different Fry and ad grit or lifting something heavy ,i get a high scream

You should definitely check out Manuel Gardner Fernandes of Unprocessed sometime and if you do decide to check them out, you should start with Thrash

Here's a late comment. Have you done "HATE/LOVE" by Electric Callboy? I was just listening to it, and was enjoying the vocals a lot, and thought of you.

The way they say a lot of things sound like it's all attributed to their accent.

when i hear you remember a band named sikth. they do mathcore

hurrican or TEKKNO train I'd love to hear you breakdown

Could you do LS Dunes next?

There is a song called Yoasobi's Idol, and there is a band that often modjusts. Arena Tour 2023 The live performance held at Denko Sekka was the best 😃 It's the exact opposite of Ad, but I recommend it.😂

Will we be blessed with another Electric Callboy reaction soon? Perhaps "Tekkno Train," "Hurrikan," "Arrow of Love," or "Spaceman"??

Have you checked out AnneMayKantereit yet? It's another German band that might be interesting for their textures. They went viral with their cover of Tom's Diner a while ago. Not a metal band. But they are using some vocal techniques that would be considered harsh I guess.

man when you scream you sound so much like Morty from rick and morty its crazy

If you like Nico's voice, 'Spaceman' has some cool stuff/variety in it.

Kevin reminds me of a young (and not dead) Bill Paxton. If they ever do an Alien-like video, I hope Kevin growls "Game over, man... game over" at some point. That would be satisfying. (-: ••• Christmas! COOKIES!!!

Once again EC 😂😂😂 - but you REALLY should trust Elisabeth and check out Nightwish "Ghost Love Score" Wacken 2013. Maybe... maybe... you will be blown away....

Please react to Ado's cover of Aishite Aishite Aishite! There is so much to pull from her raw singing in it!

Have you ever tried "Feuerschwanz", e.g. with "Berzerkermode" or "Bastard von Asgard"?

@Chris Liepe please check out Lauren Babic's and Cole Rolland's version of this. It's badass

don’t know why but that voice crack scream sounds just like rage against the machine

Are you in AZ too? 🤔

Chris, there is a new Japanese anime movie from Studio Ghibli called Boy and the Heron. The theme song for the movie is called Spinning Globes by Kenshi Yonezu, it is a beautiful singing performance. Please check that out!

Please react to Nomy. He makes great covers like from Elvis Presley- can‘t falling in love with you, or his original Messias or RUN!

I love that you have discovered and dove into Electric Callboy. Such a fun band. On a different note, I recently discovered the prog death metal band, Kassogtha. Their singer, Stephanie Hugnin, is great and I think you'd really enjoy them. She does a one take vocal performance for their song "Venom" where she uses a lot of different vocal techniques, including some you don't hear often. I think there would be a lot for you to analyze and discuss. I hope you can get to it some day. Here is the link: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/brR2lNVyqsu4g6c.htmlsi=qJRHKIa5LijoE2Bu

Nope, I can't. Nope. I have to know my limits. This is it. Metal becoming this... shivers, stomach flips, slightly nauseous, inner rage rising, want to destroy. I can't even watch for the vocal analysis part I'm so put off by this song. Not for me, ya'll have fun.

I don't think you're entirely correct regarding the fry register and fry screaming. The technique I use for screaming *is* what you describe as "that is vocal fry". The "sigh" doesn't work for me. "Llifting something heavy" doesn't work for me. That type of vocal engagement causes pain for me no matter how I try to do it. What actually works for me is combining that low rumbly fry with my regular pitched voice into a pitched or semi-pitched scream.

I dont know if you already covered this subject, but, is it better to sing with a slightly higher larynx or is it better to keep it completely level. I’ve been singing for about a year or two now and your videos do seem to help, but I’ve noticed that I started slightly raising my larynx, it doesn’t cause any problems (if anything it make my singing feel a bit more fluid) but from what ive seen/read from other vocal coaches your supposed to keep it level, their is alot of discourse on the subject since one side says stay neutral, while the other says as long as it doesn’t hurt its fine. Its Kinda confusing

10:26 you've confused me here a little saying vocal fry has nothing to do with screams. I can slowly move my pitch up from vocal fry into a pitch scream seamlessly. Yeah it takes more compression and air flow when i get higher, but it feels identical otherwise

I want you to check "Leprous" band, his singer has a interesting technique, please.

Great reaction. Anyway, can i request your reaction to superb band from japan? The band is call "Lovebites" They all The Beautiful Queens Metal band right now in the earth. They are really really World class musicians. Phenomenal. And they have a lot die hard fans too. The song is "The Hammer of Wrath" Hope you check out, and can enjoy it too. Big thanks🙏

Comment for da algorithm Streak count: 307

Mario and luigi done it again❤

Off topic: HELP CHRIS! I CANT GET ANYTHING BUT THE RASPY (NON CORD Closure) sound when singing high:( ive been stuck for months!!!

That "vulnerable" "whiny" type of screaming kinda harkens back to their very early roots (like 2010) when they were doing (kinda already satiricial/fun versions of) emocore. Emocore really leaned into that kind of screaming.

Please react to the band crypta, a band with only women, right, death metal , they are from Brazil and are very talented

I'd love to afford your course, but I'm a broke fucker so I'll settle for your youtube videos 😂

We don't scream with our soft palate? Obviously you have never heard anything from We Butter The Bread With Butter, or - as I like to think of it - Gollum Goes Hard. I just discovered your channel, and while I will admit that at first I thought you were digging annoyingly deep into the minutia of screams, I soon came to realise that you were hearing things that I had never noticed before, and once they were pointed out I can now hear them as well, and I am gaining an even greater appreciation for EC, which amazes me. I thank you for that.

"What Metal is becoming" - Look, I don't exactly pray at the metal church. I like a variety of styles of music, but to call this metal? I grew up with metal. Over the internet we don't have tone of voice, so please do not misconstrue this as angry. I don't always agree with your choices of music that you present on what was a predominantly hard rock and heavy metal channel when I first subscribed but it is your channel to do with whatever you like. The hard rock and heavy metal stars that were featured here often two years ago are what initially drew me to your channel, along with your intuitive approach to teaching. I really like the idea of an in intuitive approach to singing. It's such a nebulous art form. We don't get to see it get made, we just hear the end result, so an intuitive approach made sense to me and that combined with your emphasis on hard, heavy rock is why I chose you as my vocal coach. I grew up a heavy metal kid, I've played metal guitar since the 80s, the first metal I ever heard was Ozzy Osbourne with Randy Rhoads...I bought Metallica's KIll 'Em All at an import record store because none of the major record stores were carrying Metallica yet. They didn't think it would sell. Little did they know! I don't have room in my life for hate and I don't like a whiner or a chronic complainer, so again, just for emphasis, this is not meant to be taken as an angry post. Do I enjoy a robust exchange of ideas though? You bet! Image wise, these guys in this video have more in common with The Village People than Pantera. Tell me I'm wrong about that. Look at these guys and look at Phil Anselmo. Their demeanor could not be any more different. These guys, their whole gimmick, is as pop as pop gets. Electric Callboy, Electric Eskimo, The Electric Village People, whatever they're going by today, is everything heavy metal ever stood against. This is not music with heavy, dark themes for rebellious young people who don't fit into mainstream society. Want proof? "Hypa, hypa, you're pretty and I like ya" - I rest my case. Ronnie James Dio would be rolling over in his grave to hear a band that sings that line be considered metal. There's nothing wrong with pop music done well. I remember Ritchie Blackmore being asked about Abba. He replied: "At least they write melodies." Heh! You could put boatloads of distortion over the top of Dancing Queen. Wouldn't make it a metal song. Whether this group is an example of pop done well, that's a matter of opinion, but objectively, they do not have the themes, the emphasis on virtuosic musicianship, the guitar solos, the image, the bravado, the swagger or the moxie of a metal band.

First…

...ziemlich anstrengend, wenn das alles inmitten der Videos kommt.....kriegst Du überhaupt die Musik mit?? glaube leider nicht

This genre isn't exactly "metal", the proper term among metalheads for this music is "absolute pop garbage".

Still a much better love story than Twilight...or Titanic🤷‍♂️🤣🫶😏

I found you through your reactions to Ado and really love your videos. You genuinely seem to love and care about music and the feelings that are being carried with it. I recommend you to check out VORTEX by 白鲨JAWS sometime, I'd be really interested in your opinion about the song. ❤
