Revision as of 09:54, 30 December 2016 by Kipkis (Kipkis | contribs) (importing article from wikihow)
Exhale screaming is a much better method of screaming than inhales. Inhales will damage your voice and you will sound terrible. You won't be able to sing or scream again if you damage your vocal cords! Exhales take a little more time to get right but with practice you will be screaming like a pro in no time.
Steps
- Make the grudge noise by breathing out the air which you have breathed in using your diaphragm if you find it hard to make the grudge sound then focus more on the vowels when your trying to make the sound example: A E I O U scream either the letters by them self's carry out the vowel Example: "ooo..." a word that starts with one of these letters will be easier to scream if you can get the vowel to sound good on its own. (it sounds creaky like your humming but faster).
- Breathe from the diaphragm before you scream. It located in your stomach Region, Do NOT breath from your chest.
- Keep your shoulders straight and do not move them keep your hands beside you or position them directly in front of you to allow better air flow.
- To start, ensure that you are breathing from your diaphragm. Try imitating some famous sounds to get a feel for what this is. Try to imitate the grudge sound or a zombie's moan.
- If you got the grudge noise down, add more pressure and air until it becomes louder and distorts.
- Keep practicing until it actually turns into a scream.
- To make it higher open your mouth more and add more air. Tightening the throat. Try to imitate meat wads voice from Aqua Teen for a good starting point.
- To make it go lower, slow down and open your throat a little more and make a small o shape with your mouth as you project the air from your diaphragm threw your vocal cords.
- Understand that a lot of professional screamers are over produced. If you can't get that signature sound you desire understand that a good deal of it has to do with studio magic. Screamers use very high amounts of compression to even out their sounds. EQ also plays a role. Many famous harsh vocalist record in layers or line by line.
Tips
- Screaming along with a songs is a good way to practice. Rest your voice for 1 or 2 days after a full jam session or concert.
- Dairy products and types of food will become mucus and make it harder to scream
- Drink warm water or some tea with honey. It opens your throat up and makes it easier to scream. Cold water will close your throat and make it harder
- its better to practice without music to get the sound you want, but it will sound bad. if you are a beginner, listen to music with the screaming in it and scream along
- It's normal if your voice hurts the first few times, but it SHOULD NOT hurt after that
- Remember to keep practicing. Do a few exercises day. And remember, do warm ups and warm downs.
- Practice Mid screams before you try to do your highs or lows it will help allot
- warm up like sing some chords to warm up your voice
Warnings
- If you feel any pain STOP immediately you will damage your throat if you continue to scream.
- Do not use your lungs
- It will sound bad at first so don't give up it may take a while to get it down.
- Do not force it
Things You'll Need
- Warm water (cold water will only make it harder to scream)
- Tea. Note: If your drinking tea avoid adding milk if possible because it will cause your throat to get lined and it will make your screams sound raspy and it won't aid you very much so to speak.
- Music with screaming in it.
