Here is the first one I did.. unholy confessions, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGZkA_FVplg now I know the screaming is offbeat, I was just trying something different.. or normally I would of screamed higher







http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lqFUM685ms This is the down with the sickness one, ok this one sucks big time, I really need advice on how to scream (not metal, but like he does in the chorus) I kinda got the hang of it but it sounds like the power of it dies when I go to high or something I don't know.. btw im 15, could this have anything to do with it?

Ok the first one doesnt sound bad. The second one, well, I couldnt get too because it said it was a private video. What you need to do in the first sample and in the second one Im sure is this:

1: Don't worry about trying to sing like him just do it in your own voice.
2: Sing both songs without any rasp and just try to sing the notes. You, at least in the first sample, need to go for the note first. Youre trying to get that rasp first because you want to get a "scream sound" when you really need to get the cords making that note first. Sing the scream.

ok you mean instead of doing the rasp just sing normally, then when I get that down work on the rasp?

Yea, at least a few times to practice. To scream or rasp on pitch is not really much more than an extra pushed note with a bit of "throat". Youve got to be able to properly walk before running. You should try to do normal aggresive singing when you can.

did you listen to the down with the sickness? I know the singing clean part SUX, I was trying to change my voice to his, but that didnt turn out to good.. Just tell me how good the rasp is in the song, ill probably re-do it in my own voice after I practice the rasping for a bit

don't force it so much, try to achieve the pitch naturally, and then instead of pushing to distort, try slighting vibrating your throat to get that natural frying sound.... its not good for you to push hard, and from what I heard it sounds like your pushing, but you definately have talent buddy
