Well, I just want to know how all these metal bands scream without killing their throats (i know there is a way, but dont know how to do it)

so does anyone know how/would you like to tell me how?

i basically know nothing about screaming, but can sing very well lol

oh man, if I was in my dorm I'd upload a tutorial I have. Do a search for "Tony Bullard Metal Tutorial" maybe you can find it.

Basically, you heave a sigh, a exasperated sigh, not a relaxed sigh, and amplify it. You need to open your throat, not clench it like many people do. I still dont know how they do it,c ause I can't. Just gotta be talented I guess.

hans, I'm at work right now, but my shift ends in an hour. When I get back to my room I'll upload it and PM you the link. It's a very interesting mp3 file, only a few minutes long but he does a good job explaining the technique.

I want to know how Angela Gossow can do the death metal "screams" better than most of the men.

i'm checking out that other thing posted...as for the screaming thing, it feels like its gonna kill my voice (which it shouldnt) but i guess it's expected to hurt at first...i can't scream high though, so it's kinda funny...i'll have to experiment.
