No matter what I do, i can't get your mic/gear page to display. Turned off all anti-virus, ads, vpn...nothing's coming up. Don't worry about solving my problem though; I was just checking it because I was curious; I live in Portugal anyway. I'm just mentioning it because I know it's part of your income, and you didn't perhaps didn't notice it.
it is nice to see that there are videos with a complete explanation in contrast with these videos who promise to explain something and instead show how they sing and finally don't explain anything or point you to their overpriced lesson.. This is the best explanation I found so far. Thanks for providing us with these videos! Very to the point and very clear
Thanks very much! That's my goal, to provide tutorials that have good, practical tips that people can actually USE. It is disheartening to see tutorials with only singing and little to no information on HOW they are singing. One of the "red flags" of a vocal coach who might not be that fantastic is a lack of specific, practical information on HOW to execute or work on specific techniques. I'm going to be making a video on this soon, tips for finding a good vocal instructor. This is also why I began with tutorials and have only a few singing examples on the actual Voicehacks channel, because you can Google me if you want to see me sing with bands/scream etc. and it's time to give everyone some information and real useful stuff for a change. Thanks much and I've got more coming - things are going up to the next level in 2017! \m/
Thanks, subscribed! I'm a men who is also looking for a light rasp in the lower range. This is the mid-range and the higher range. Is this with the same technique? I can do it a bit with the trick of starting with a humming sound that goes over in a raspy humming that you can also convert in a scream. It sometimes works in a higher range, but the lower is with to much tension. Also my singing teacher says I have to much tension in my voice. ut it's much less the last year(s). Thank you very much once again.
Hmmm.. Do you really find "imagine noise in your mouth and it will come naturally" informative? Like.. I need to contract muscles to do it, mental image won't do it for me. If i didn't learn to engage false cords beforehand, i'd have had no idea how to do it
@@puckspirit2573 same i say hahaha i know this girl tried to be informative, but there's not much here, no exercises, nothing about the muscles involved, or at least something like "use vocal fry" or "dont use it". ill keep searching XD
I can sing well cleanly, but have been getting into heavier stuff and have been struggling to sing with grit without hurting myself. In the past month or so I've watched a bunch of videos, and by far this was the most helpful. Your explanation of visualizing singing up and over with the graph helped immediately and over the course of the day I got it and can now sing with high distortion without any pain! You're the best! Thanks!
I honestly can't believe that this worked, holy macarony. For years I've been madly trying to get an alternative to my plain voice, which is nice for a lot of stuff but just kills the mood for a lot of songs still. This is sincerely an amazing revelation o.o I'm gonna practice the heck out of this now :D Thank you so much for making this video 4 years back!
Thank you so much for making this video! I'm so tired of singing "pretty". I immediately added these techniques to a song I've Been Working On and it's exactly what I've been looking for. thank you.
I used to sing metal with a bad technique, but now I want to learn how to sing properly so I checked this video. Thanks a lot! I've learned a lot from this. You're a good teacher! You earned another subscriber :) More power.
THANK YOU! I've always sung with a rasp/grit but could never completely control where it came from, so extra fatigue and it took some of my power away. Then I listen to you for five minutes and boom, fixed. No tightness, great sound, full power. I wish I'd known about you 20 years ago!
I've been singing with grit for about 3 years now. It's sorta a mix between Lemmy and Tom Waits. I never gave much thought on how I did it. I taught myself to growl and scream then worked backwards from there to teach myself that amazing, rich gritty texture I can now use in my voice. This is a great video in explaining how it works!
I've been watching youtube videos about singing teaching for years and years, but your channel is the best one literally. Very effective, clear, healthy way of teaching. Thank you, it helps me a lot.
Okay so yes this is my 3rd comment on these videos. But I just tried this. This is the thing I have been wanting to learn how to do for so long so long. And this just made 100% sense in the way its explained. I practiced a little then had a go at some Halestorm... Never thought I'd ever be saying that.
Wow so I’ve always struggled with adding grit. When you started explaining just imagining it I was sceptical but I’ve just done it and it worked! Just need to practice now!
THIS worked, instantly and perfectly! What a great tip. I've actually achieved this technique before, but didn't know how I was doing it. Now with the help of your mental imagery I can do it consistently thanks to you. I'll be checking out your other videos today :)
The best video tutorials I have ever seen!!! Very understandable and clear! And of course the beauty of this lady makes it even better!!! Finally I found the right place to learn the vocal techniques!!! Thank you!
Wow. Easy to follow and instant effect. This is by far the most effective and teachable lesson I have ever seen. Along the tone placement one. Incredible. Thank you.
5:04 I can’t even begin to describe how delicious that grit sounds (I could, but I’d just ramble on and on and on lol) Thank you so much for sharing this!!
Thank you so much! Didn't think the white noise thing was gonna work but after a few tries it did! Now just practicing to have better control over it...
I tried your technique and ended up growling or screaming, instead, and when I tried to imagine the noise from my mouth, it's all clean. I'm really struggling to get it right, guess I'm not very good with abstraction, can you give me a glimpse on how it feel when you sing with grit? Like how open your throat is... Please help!
Oh my gosh....this is the most impactful video i've ever had on singing with grit. Thank you so much! Specifically, this helped my learn Dan Campbell's part of Strangers by Trash Boat! Thank you so much!
I sort of did some of these things instinctively on stage (your throat will die on tour if you don't learn a little something about not using it) but as I get older I'm getting hoarse so I started looking up more proper technique. This is great stuff that I'm sure will help me improve a lot. Thank you a ton for posting these!!
Thank you! And also use this breathing video to improve all of these techniques. AIR is the key here to making this work without hoarseness: th-cam.com/video/W5cd4C40SRE/w-d-xo.html
Best tutorial ever!!! After trying out so many other and not managing to do it, I thought I was just incapable to do it but thanks to you I finally did it!!
Hey i'm watching tbis in 2018 and i want to say thank you so much for making this video to help me. Some other videos just don't help out at all and this is the only video that helped me sing with grit.
This channel is an absolute life saver! I just got asked to front a posthardcore band based on some covers on my soundcloud. And I'm super excited for it but... I've only ever sung back up harmonies in more melodic bands so I am missing that aggressive/ vocal knowledge. (y)
Thank you so much for this well explained video. I have seen many videos of the same style but yours have something the others I have viewed don't. The technique of the sounds and how to approach them that you provide is extremely helpful. Thanks for your advice!
This is the only time this has been explained to me in a way that helps me differentiate the throat muscles. Going to start practicing with it. Thank you so much!
You didn't help me add grit to my voice - I struggled to understand what you mean but you did help me to Improve the way I'm singing with the whole singing over the joker line explanation which I liked so thank you!
I have a singing voice. And I wanted to practice other singing techniques to use more for my covers! I still didn't start making covers yet. But I'm gonna start as soon and I can
this series of videos are so informative! I love the deep explanation of the abstract thoughts and where the sounds is coming from and going to. Thank you
Wait, I'm confused. Is this the same as the vocal fry technique? Are you adding a layer of fry into the belting, or is the grit from a completely different place?
I have a feeling Porcelain Black's song This is what Rock n Roll looks like is good for practicing these basics :) Thank you so much for explaining so well
So I started with that vid and managed to nail and record Linkin Park - One Step Closer Breakdown vocals, what the fish, thay's like my 3rd attempt at screaming. Ty sending a ray of love your way
This is awesome!! Thank you for the great videos as always. How come this technique becomes harder in higher registers? Any tips on singing with grit in higher notes?
This almost immediately helped me. I was able to sing along to some songs like Hard Feelings by Palisades and Collide by Normandie without ANY strain, and I could sing all of it (I was never able to sing those songs fully or even keep up for long before this)
Hi Mary, when I do this (correctly I think) I feel too itchy around my soft palate and this results in me coughing. Am I doing this too harsh? (I never feel anywhere down in my throat) Thanks!
ive tried to to add the grit to my voice but it just doesnt go. it doesnt hurt, so i know i'm not straining anything, but i just cant seem to make it out.
nicolesio it's the same as belting technique, I find when I want grit that I have to sing very loud so that enough air passes through my throat; and then I just compress a little.
whoa-- I was singing in the mid range for years and have been goin back and forth between your video and a metal chica named Adrrienne and I think i made more progress tonight than in years... Ive always had that low to mid Cornell style voice but could never cut it in the higher spectrum. I do notice a little bit of strain but thats prob because i put in 3 hours today messin around. The head voice has really intimidated me because i always felt like i could do it but sounded too feminine. Ive been just imitating what you do via observation and it just clicked. I feel like a dunz, LOL-- Thanks! Totally subscribing!
Am I doing this right? I can create the clean, belting sound confidently without any pain, and I can create a gritty version that sounds great but feels like continual repetition would hurt. The placement in my throat feels lower than you were describing, but I feel a lot of compression and support in my core/diaphragm which seems to really project the sound. Attempting this technique with a higher placement activates my head voice, my voice crackles, doesn't feel as powerful and controlled, but isn't painful at all. I'll keep practicing with this video and take a look at the others too. Thanks for this regardless! This is a really succinct explanation.
Thank you for the vid, Mary! They're always super helpful. I've been wanting to ask you. Do you think that this is the technique Oli Sykes from BMTH uses on the album That's the Spirit? I've been trying to imitate his very raspy/grity singing style (Check out the chorus of the song Doomed by BMTH, there he uses the syle I'm reffering to) but I can't quite seem to nail it. I try mixing my fry scream with my mixed voice; adding rasp to my cleans; doing the false cord with singing; etc. but nothing ever seems to quite work. Do you think that there's a right way to do what he does (singing with extreme rasp)? Or does he just sing like that from permanent throat damage?
Rodrigo Fernández yes this technique is what you would use to achieve those raspy shouting and singing sounds. Do not try to directly combine fry or false cord with your voice. Think of it like distortion on top of belting, not mixed voice. Take it easy and if you ever become hoarse discontinue attempting this. Do not continue anything that causes hoarseness or pain. If it doesn't work from the videos just stop and email me about lessons! Voicehacks@gmail.com
EXACTLY WHY IM WATCHING THIS. lol I'm literally listening to Avenged Sevenfold and trying to sound like him. I thought I was doing it until I recorded myself 😑😑😑 I'm horrible. So I said. "Fuck it! I'm watching videos on this shit"😂😂
Great video, great explanation, I've always tried to learn how to do that, watched and tried a lot of tutorials before, but it never really worked, but thanks to your video I just did it... amazing. Thanks! One question though, how can I sing with that, how can I put that and move it around in pitch? 'cause that's what I'm stuggling with now.
I have to concentrate harder to NOT have grit. It doesn't hurt, it just happens. I will say, if I try to get lower it gets harder, but when I'm singing Def Leppard, for example... It's extremely natural and easy. I've also been told I sound the best singing in Joe Elliott's range..... 80s Elliott.
I love you Mary, but i've watched this video for at least 100 times and i still can't seem to get that "chest voice grit" can you make another video about singing with rasp where you maybe explain more of what you are doing? Ps. Love all of your video's, you rock!

@@dorcassnell Thanks very much! I know it’s not working at the moment I’m going to fix it shortly!

The "white-noise-ball" analogy is perfect as I find you have to flatten your tongue into a dish-shape, or like the top of a golf ball tee.
DUDE! I was struggling a bit with her explanation but your comment really added the last piece to the puzzle, amazing! Thank you!
Whoa!! It freaking worked!! The imagery is SUCH a better route than thinking in terms of mechanics. Thanks, Mary!
woo hoo! 🙌🙌

You’re so right about using your mind to help create the sound!
My voice starts sounding more like Marilyn Manson but higher pitched with my grit 😂
That's good, though right? I love Manson's grit!
VoiceHacks definitely a good thing!!
Yay!
I defenetly do too, If i try to do any sort of other artist i still sound like manson, Well kind of like manson and taylor momsens spawn
Yeah, Marilyn Manson is amazing

its not you. she's too abstract in her teaching, dont blame yourself for not being able to learn when the teacher's god awful.
Really great stuff Mary, very helpful! Would you mind making a short video on how to sing an actual song phrase with this technique please?
I like this. This technique reminds me of Adam Gontier from the old school Three Days Grace
Oh my gosh....this is the most impactful video i've ever had on singing with grit. Thank you so much! Specifically, this helped my learn Dan Campbell's part of Strangers by Trash Boat! Thank you so much!
Holy shit I was able to hit an A4 with grit because of you I'll keep practicing now thank you
Love this! Visualizing the path of the sound helps me a lot with my technique 😁 you are a great teacher 💖
I’ve watched so many videos and I still can’t get it 😭😭

This is so helpful and hearing you instruct is very relaxing
I got the noise immediately after listening a few times and it was the biggest shock I've had in a while thank you
Best tutorial ever!!! After trying out so many other and not managing to do it, I thought I was just incapable to do it but thanks to you I finally did it!!

I've only ever sung back up harmonies in more melodic bands so I am missing that aggressive/ vocal knowledge. (y)
You are awesome!
God Donut! I finally feel grit in my soft pallet instead of throat. Amazing explanation, thanks!
this is great for nirvana songs, thank you.
This was really helpful! I wanted to try and sing like Adam Gontier..
wow okay that's really cool, none of the other vids I've found helped and this was perfect, wow.
Omg, thanks so much for this advice! I spent the past week watching videos on grit and your video summed it up perfectly! The visual helped a bunch!!
You're awesome! Thanks for sharing -wishing you more success ❤❤❤
I can do the "nay" sound, and I do imagine the white noise in my mouth but I still can't add grit to my voice :( any advice?
Use a lot of compression and sing really loudly
Use dense sand paper.
Try speaking with grit or a gravely voice first, not just singing.
Honestly, this channel has helped my vocals more than the rest if the website. Still cant get it though, practice practice practice!
Thank you so much for this well explained video.
I have seen many videos of the same style but yours have something the others I have viewed don't.
The technique of the sounds and how to approach them that you provide is extremely helpful.

I happened To find this again and I’m glad I remember this visualization technique working
I have a singing voice. And I wanted to practice other singing techniques to use more for my covers! I still didn't start making covers yet. But I'm gonna start as soon and I can
somehow I unlocked false highs which I've been stuck trying to unlock for months. Thanks 😁😁👍
your courses are to clear, complete, waooo O_O
So far...this is more clearer than I watched earlier...
great explanation. Many thanks
this series of videos are so informative! I love the deep explanation of the abstract thoughts and where the sounds is coming from and going to. Thank you
Mary, I love you! The visualization technique is so useful!
This is sth I struggle a lot with, my screams are super clean but can't manage to sing like this😂😂😂😂😂
Nice demonstration.
I just want to sing violet by hole without sounding like a sheep and having a saw throat lmao
Wait, I'm confused. Is this the same as the vocal fry technique? Are you adding a layer of fry into the belting, or is the grit from a completely different place?
Good question! I don't get the "imagine white noise" technique at all :/
It has nothing to do with fry
Fry comes from your vocal chords. It's another technique.
I have a feeling Porcelain Black's song This is what Rock n Roll looks like is good for practicing these basics :) Thank you so much for explaining so well
Love porcelain black!
So I started with that vid and managed to nail and record Linkin Park - One Step Closer Breakdown vocals, what the fish, thay's like my 3rd attempt at screaming. Ty sending a ray of love your way
Holy shit that abstract thing actually works
Thank you.
Golden time (11:45am-12 & 2:30pm-2:45pm)
Epic lesson. Explained so well.
This is awesome!! Thank you for the great videos as always. How come this technique becomes harder in higher registers? Any tips on singing with grit in higher notes?

The Metallica grit is what I'm going for; Justice era vocals. Hopefully this is what I need. I'll look your other videos up tomorrow.
Hi Mary, when I do this (correctly I think) I feel too itchy around my soft palate and this results in me coughing. Am I doing this too harsh? (I never feel anywhere down in my throat)
Thanks!
That was totally helpfull, thank you so much x
You're a very good teacher thanks!
it works better for me when i go for mixed tone placement
ive tried to to add the grit to my voice but it just doesnt go. it doesnt hurt, so i know i'm not straining anything, but i just cant seem to make it out.
nicolesio it's the same as belting technique, I find when I want grit that I have to sing very loud so that enough air passes through my throat; and then I just compress a little.
whoa-- I was singing in the mid range for years and have been goin back and forth between your video and a metal chica named Adrrienne and I think i made more progress tonight than in years... Ive always had that low to mid Cornell style voice but could never cut it in the higher spectrum. I do notice a little bit of strain but thats prob because i put in 3 hours today messin around. The head voice has really intimidated me because i always felt like i could do it but sounded too feminine. Ive been just imitating what you do via observation and it just clicked.

OMGGGG I wish you could have seen my reaction when I tried this and it worked aaaaaah
YESSSS!!
Sounds like natural talent
Great video, very informative. Thank you!
Hey, how do you know that when I do the example it's "good"?! Freaky.
“Now you give it a try”
“H.. erp!” 😐🤭😑
“Good”
😦😯🤔🙂
Thank you for the vid, Mary! They're always super helpful.
I've been wanting to ask you. Do you think that this is the technique Oli Sykes from BMTH uses on the album That's the Spirit?
I've been trying to imitate his very raspy/grity singing style (Check out the chorus of the song Doomed by BMTH, there he uses the syle I'm reffering to) but I can't quite seem to nail it. I try mixing my fry scream with my mixed voice; adding rasp to my cleans; doing the false cord with singing; etc. but nothing ever seems to quite work.
Do you think that there's a right way to do what he does (singing with extreme rasp)? Or does he just sing like that from permanent throat damage?
Rodrigo Fernández yes this technique is what you would use to achieve those raspy shouting and singing sounds. Do not try to directly combine fry or false cord with your voice. Think of it like distortion on top of belting, not mixed voice. Take it easy and if you ever become hoarse discontinue attempting this. Do not continue anything that causes hoarseness or pain. If it doesn't work from the videos just stop and email me about lessons! Voicehacks@gmail.com
Thank you, Mary! That sheds a lot of light. Probably in the near future I'll take you on that lessons offer!
Wow thanks for this vid❤️ i just discovered how to do it now thank u very muchhh😘
Holy crap! It works.
Yop Glo How long did it take? I have an audition for a band at the end of the month and they asked me to sing some Nirvana songs. -_-"
@@t0rschlusspan1k I'M SO SORRY! I never saw your comment. I'm actually still working on it, but it's getting better. It takes so much practice.
super video, great teacher .thanks
I wish I can sing rasp like M.Shadows 😂
Muhammad Alvien that's exactly why I watched this
Seth Hubbard me too
He's had some problems with his voice and even surgery though, so some of it could come from that when he's just pushing it a little.
EXACTLY WHY IM WATCHING THIS. lol I'm literally listening to Avenged Sevenfold and trying to sound like him. I thought I was doing it until I recorded myself 😑😑😑 I'm horrible. So I said. "Fuck it! I'm watching videos on this shit"😂😂
Muhammad Alvien He has damaged vocal cords tho, that’s how he gets that sound.
Nice one for the vid. Spot on!
Holy shit, it works!
Beautiful love these tips
THIS HELPED
Great video, great explanation, I've always tried to learn how to do that, watched and tried a lot of tutorials before, but it never really worked, but thanks to your video I just did it... amazing. Thanks! One question though, how can I sing with that, how can I put that and move it around in pitch? 'cause that's what I'm stuggling with now.
You. Are. Awesome!!!!
Thank you so much!! It works
I have to concentrate harder to NOT have grit. It doesn't hurt, it just happens. I will say, if I try to get lower it gets harder, but when I'm singing Def Leppard, for example... It's extremely natural and easy. I've also been told I sound the best singing in Joe Elliott's range..... 80s Elliott.
I love you Mary, but i've watched this video for at least 100 times and i still can't seem to get that "chest voice grit" can you make another video about singing with rasp where you maybe explain more of what you are doing?
Ps. Love all of your video's, you rock!
