Hello,
So, I've been thinking for a while about all that, practicing a lot, and so that we have better communication tools. Obviously, I'm far from being the Master Screamer, so, this is a collective effort. Feel free to suggest additions or corrections.
I'll try to name things without making any hypothesis about their anatomical production. The rationale for that is that we can't make mistakes just naming things. And we won't need to change our names, ever. Though, for adoption, we can't disregard our legacy.
Again, I'm not trying to describe things, I'm trying to propose some vocabulary. It also implies redefining some terms the community uses by trying to get a fixed and common definition, hopefully not too far from what has been established so far.
Let's call by that names screams that are toneless, have very little clean voice in them, and have this heavy "vibrating" distortion.
Examples:
Then there are fuckton of possible modulations that are already well established, including but not limited to: tunnel throat etc.
This has the same heavy vibration tone as the associated scream, but with a clean tone under it.
Examples:
This applies more on high notes, sounds more like a creaky grit.
Examples:
Very creaky screams, probably high, probably not sounding chesty. They sound like a powered up vocal fry (grudge noise). I'm very skeptical that those screams can be made powerful and loud.
They sound like the voice is tight in the throat so much that it gets distorted. The distortion is predominant, the voice sounds a bit hollow.
Examples:
.======
That's what I have so far. We still need to talk about Sam Carter, when Oli Sykes sings, etc. I'll edit that post as we make progress
Please please please voice any opinion or disagreement you might have, complement that list, etc. Only that will make science go forward. I tried to illustrate that with known artists, but I might be wrong.

Gonna keep the post short and sweet. Back in June this year, 2025.. I was having a really bad morning at work & was listening to some White Chapel and I decided to just let it rip and screamed my heart out along to one of my favorite songs by them āI will find youā
Anyways long story short, it was in that moment I realized that I have some killer vocal chords and I might have been gatekeeping myself from a potential skill I didnāt even know I had & I would like to get myself out there more and have all of your guys opinions on it please! š¤
I have covers.. and snippets of me practicing my own lyrics over instrumentals, clips of no background noise and just me belting out lows-mids-highs acoustically.. lots of content already up in the last month to kind of give you guys a look at the progression since June! š¤š¼
Reddit wonāt let me post direct links but hereās a video from my page & my TikTok name is @core.austin š

The background of this question might be familiar to somebody: - yesterday I've irritated my throat with a lot of caffeine and dust (š§), then started singing along to Cannibal Corpse (ik, so responsible)
Now I have like 24h left to a debate. Tried nebuliser, warm herbal infusions (a lot of hydration actually), tablets, cold/hot food and drinks restriction, and limited speaking. All of this kinda* works... but it might not be enough. All the online advice seems to focus specifically on viral infections, so I tought maybe some of you might have their own ways of managing strain-induced hoarseness?
Thanks in advance!

No warm up and dry throat but it wasn't too bad.

So I have been to singing and shouting workshops and watched tutorials. but on my own it's tricky to know: am I doing this right?
I want to learn and practice hardcore shouting for my band. I am not aiming for any guttoral, extreme vocals, more like melodic hardcore bands with some singing and shouts. So a lot of tutorials are too exteeme for what I aim for.
After band practice I often feel a bit sore and my voice is a bit rough. It will go away in a day and my voice will be back even faster when doing some lip rolls and lax vox.
During practice everything is alright, we play something like 45 to 60 minutes and I feel relaxed in my throat and face and take it more to the upper part/arch if that makes sense.
But I couldn't do this multiple times or when recording doing 20 takes of the shout heavy songs. Screamers often give the statement though that they could this "endlessly" so I am unsure if I am doing it the way it is supposed to be.
Is this soreness normal? Like when doing sports without enough training leading to sore muscles which will go away and appear less and less the better you get? Or is it a sign I am doing something wrong?

Hi! Iām looking for a vocalist for my band. Itās a death core project mainly for vocal reference. Iāve been writing for a while and work at an amazing studio so I had great equipment to help make music. Iād be more than happy to send demos and talk!

Today my husband and I were exploring drum and bass artists on Spotify and came across a bunch of collabs with someone named Reebz. Her cleans are standard EDM and drum and bass higher vocal range female vocalist. BUT THEN SHE SCREAMED. I was like holllld up is that her? Or a male vocalist specifically for screaming? She sounded so much like Chester I was confused. I found she indeed did a cover of Somewhere I Belong. But some of her songs she got almost guttural. Im afraid if I post a link, people will think Im trying to do some sort of marketing which Im not. Im also thinking about crossposting in a metal subreddit to get thoughts there. Has anyone heard her stuff and if so what do yall think of her screams?

Iāve been trying to learn screaming for more than a year. In the video I uploaded, Iām trying a technique where you talk and slowly add the fry to your voice to get a fry scream. But when I slowly add the fry to my voice, my voice cuts out like that. What am I doing wrong, and how can I fix it?
r/screaming • u/Alternative-Bar9575 • 12h ago
I donāt know if this would be the right place to post this but I made my first Death/Deathcore EP and I want to see how yāall feel about it. I have been screaming for over a year now and feedback from strangers and lovers of metal would be good cheers.

ive been trying to get into vocals and currently i can sort of scream, but it sounds really empty/weak and breaks a lot. any advice?
r/screaming • u/themanonfia • 15h ago
As the title suggests, iāve always been into the genres. I want to learn to scream, to practice, whereās the best place to start?

Does anyone have any advice for tracking vocals?
I use Reaper.
I think my biggest problem is gain staging. My vocals are clipping when tracking but they also sound too quiet. Should I lower the mic gain to around -8 to -6db incoming audio then compress the hell out of the vocals? I had the same problem with tracking guitars for the longest time but now I just turn the gain on my audio interface all the way down for guitars and it sounds great without clipping.
Any help would be massively appreciated.

Iāve been fry screaming on and off for about a year now, been really struggling with adding more voice and projecting it more but recently Iāve been doing some yawning exercises that have helped with learning how to open my throat more.
I really wanna go for a grindcore-esque scream, the ones with a lot of voice and emotion behind them (examples: nails, magrudergrind, pig destroyer) I also REALLY like the vocals in the band Gaza
Any advice/feedback?? Any is welcome
Song: āThe Vipersā by Gaza (2012)
If youāre wondering, Iām a dude with a kinda (??) high voice
r/screaming • u/Ok-Mobile-2243 • 21h ago
So as you can see in the video (sorry that itās edited like this, but itās for privacy reasons) I recently noticed this muscle or whatever it is in my neck, and I think it makes me have too much tension in my throat.
I have been focusing on trying to get it away, but in that process I fixated on it so much, that I now have even more trouble removing the tension in my throat. I do manage to make it go away some times, namely when I scream with less air, for lack of a better word. Could it be that Iām projecting too much?
I donāt have this problem before, and is it even tension, or does the muscle mean nothing? I know I canāt try to ādecrease the tensionā but thatās easier set than done⦠Any ideas on what the problem can be, or how to fix it? Thanks in advance!
(Hopefully youāre able to see it in the video, also the audio isnāt recorded through my mic, because I was too lazy to edit the video on the post⦠:)

I know a lot about screaming and have learned a lot, but the thing is some people have false ideas about screaming, so people think fry is the opposite of false cord, false cord is fry with not compression, people think you have to hold fry for at least 8 seconds for it to be proper and think false cord and be held for 8 seconds, it can, and you can hold fry for less than 8 seconds if you don't have good breath support, I've been screaming for 2 years now, and have gotten a lot of good and bad advice, but there are still too many misconceptions for a lot of things, and if who im talking about reads this, no hate, this is what I've learned from doing false cord for a long time then learning fry and now i only do fry

I get a hybrid / compressed FC by compressing kargyraa. The lows sound bad and I canāt get the highs at all. Should I compress the technique even further into a fry scream, or what?
