Does anyone here do vocals for a band or on their own time? I certanly do. I'm currently in the band called Darkwar... but I'm waiting for the guys to get better organized, kinda taking a break. Darkwar is supposed to be many types of metal, putting together many types of sounds to make our music sound, epic. I, of course, sing and scream, yay. What I do is just fun and exciting, whenever do you just get to scream your head off to music that you and your band created. It's a really good feeling(Don't worry, I undergo warm ups and I have the knowledge on how not to hurt my vocal cords while screaming). So, does anyone else here on this board do what I do? Or anything different? Just post about it here, and possible introduce your band here. In case your wondering, you should visit the Darkwar myspace page.

its awsome to find others who do vocals here. not that I do vocals anymore, but I did do vocals some time in the past. I used to be part of a mariachi band which was called mariachi anomimo, which translates to anonymous maraichi. anyways, there was no screaming involved in this music however, it really was important to warm up. especially before you've got to sing "y volvere". man, certain notes in that song can really strain the voice especially in the key that it was arranged at. can't remember which key it was aranged at but I must say that it would have been far more easier if they'd have in the key of G. oh well, the majority wanted it at the other key so what could've I done.
oops looks like I'm already side tracking too much. hehe, memories make me talk too much at times. XD

Heh, don't worry about side tracking, I like reading sometimes ya know?
Heh, I sing by ear so not really clear about the keys, but I guess I could relate it to the viola.

I'm not really good, but compared to my other friends, I'm definently the best among them, so I sing and play guitar. I think I sound like Joe Walsh and John Lennon a bit, Joe Walsh more. Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix show through sometimes as well. But I don't do anything too high range because I'd be focusing on range more than my guit playing. It's fun singing, I'm not the best, but I get stuck with it and don't fight it.

I went on your myspace seeing as I am a big metal head, and I was hoping for vocals...
you need a drummer, that kinda sucks... drums are part of what gets me into it so much.

It helps alot beforehand. But doing it straight up is good. But I sometimes need some warmup time, otherwise growlin hurts.

Dude, get "The Zen of Screaming" DvD. It has tons of warm ups that you can do and a lot of informational stuff about your vocals and techniqually how to singer with a better voice. Not long after I got this dvd dude, I was pretty damn good like I thought I was going to be. But lately I haven't done a thing which is really pissing me off.

I saw that, it'd be sweet to get lessons from Melissa Cross herself

I have a black metal ish rasp, and I can sortof do a low growl like death metal roar, but Im not so good at it in my oppinion. eh, I would like to learn better, cant get the zen of screaming though, parents wouldnt stand for it, and Im in no band, so I do it just for kicks alone when listening to music, and on my bike riding through town getting looks from all the "normal people"

Well me i've been workin' on my vocals for a while. I use my fav songs from dawn of ashes and sing to them. I used to do a little of Nergal from Behemoth but now i can't do it anymore. I sound a little like Barney from Napalm Death

Do you not read or understand rules Owashira? This thread has been dead for nearly a year, and the rules state that you do NOT resurrect old threads more than two months old. If you wanted to you are to contact a G-Mod OR the Moderator of that set of threads. This is the only time you are being told, as you have been told in the past along with spearheart.
