Well I've been reading through these threads for a few hours now, and have been picking up quite a bit of information. I do have one small question regarding falsetto and screaming though.

I'm a huge Blind Guardian fan, for those who know of them, and the lead singer, Hansi, can go pretty high, and does excellent metal screams- but his notes don't sound like a regular falsetto (cartoony)... they sound pure and smooth. So I read into the whole Speech Level Singing stuff, and about headvoice and how you should be using it instead of falsetto.

Well, if I sing high, I have to go in falsetto, else I'm just struggling in the chest. If i go very quiet, I can blend the chest into the falsetto- but apparently when you achieve that, that's your head voice.... Yet is sound the exact same as my falsetto, if not worse because I can only do it very very quietly.

Can anyone post some sound clips of singing in head voice? And then singing in falsetto? And then each in a scream / rasp?

Thanks a lot guys
