I have been working on scream since this post, and i have developed some kind of rasp, but just doesn't sound right........ maybe when i get my computer mic from my friend or something, i will post what i sound like and get some tips. In conclusion, i love screaming and i will always love listening to it, and nothing can tear me away from that style. thanks for the advice merkaba.
my goal is to scream like avenged sevenfold, and hopefully someday, develop his singing voice. Is there anyway for me to find out what the lowest and highest not i can reach when singing, sing my lowest and trying to find the same note on a piano or something?

yea. or use a guitar. its not rocket science. and you need to be using your falsetto for your highest note. if you can find it which it seems that most people cant around here. just try to sound like a girl. but you must have an open pallet. like youre about to say ahhh for the doctor. if youre not good at getting into falsetto, just do a high "hah" like a girl. you have to bee somewhat open to even make the ahh sound. but use Hah. the h in the fron gets you open and h at the end keeps you open. or should. open your mouth wide but not too wide or straining. and lift your cheeks like that other guy said in another post. kinda like a smile. keep your neck straight or your chin just a little bit tucked down, just a little, when youre trying for higher notes. (of course when youre performing you should have the feelings down to where you dont have to do all that, unless youre in opera) just relax and dont overthink(i like to overexplain because i love this stuff) but again, its not rocket science. but you gotta relax. thats key
but dont try to do too much too soon. but once you get the technique down, then you can start building strength and stamina. its more about feel that anything else. you actually feel the correct ways, the balance between push and sound. and thats one thing i like about it. its the overall feel and emotion i let loose when i sing/scream/etc.
keep at it dude. dont judge yourself about you've been trying for this amount of time. this post aint that old! it will take some work and time and you dont want to kill yourvoice in the process. scar tissue in one of your vocal muscless equals weakness. do it right, which might be slow. hell, if your band knows whats good for them they will be patient too. but you might surprise yourself. did you check out my replies? you really should try to get Wonderful World. download it or something. you cant get good rasp unless you relax, yet you have to counteract that with the blast of emotion and air it takes. not relaxing the throat while blasting will render you damaged and career-less prone. if you can learn to rasp at a relaxed 30% push like that Louis Armstrong song you can move up very fast, in my opinion. go get it!
