Amanda Keesler awesome, that’s so great to hear!! It’s also awesome to have another female death metal vocalist!!! You girls add such a cool element to this style of music!
@@jasonstallworth Aw, thank you! My comfort zone I found was similar to Dead ala Mayhem. The more airy, dry corpsey sound. Granted I have to be careful where I practice because I live in a small town that's scared of everything. Had to sound proof my restroom pretty much. Lol But yeah, now I can pull off those super long raspy growls and I'm stoked!
@@amandakeesler2344 I love that airy sound, and believe it or not, that's better on your voice, in my opinion anyway. I grew up in a smaller town as well so I get it...our type of metal isn't accepted by the masses! lol
@@jasonstallworth Right?? Even then I don't really care? It's all about having fun for me. I just dont want the police to show up because of a noise complaint. Lol
Kehnai Bohnyu I want to encourage you to write and don’t worry about how it may come out or what others thing. Watch this video I made where I share my failures and how to overcome them: th-cam.com/video/c3F-7UhjKVk/w-d-xo.html
These are actually great tips, thanks! You can never stress this enough: as a beginner who has spent the last two years practicing all sorts of vocal experiments, probably the most precious piece of advice is to forget about sounding like somebody else. It's dangerous especially when you start, it will surely lead to frustration and it might expose you to serious injuries.
Dude, that's such a great point! And I say the same to my guitarists on here! Always focus on developing your own style! Because someone else's style has already been done!
I wish this video would have been around when I was a teenager. I've been doing metal vocals wrong for almost a decade now. Not wrong enough do do damage, but I've never had the sound quite right. This helped me understand what I've been doing wrong. Thank you so much!
I've never been confident in my singing ability but my girlfriend wanted to hear me sing and insisted I would be good so I worked on It and she's given me confidence. I also listen to a lot of music so here I am, after learning how to sing, rap, and now “scream”. Thanks man
This is probably the best tutorial on growl vocals I have seen thus far, where you actually explain how it is not supposed to be a strain, while demonstrating the information. Great video, Jason!
Thank you! Yes, I learned the hard way when I first got into this style. Even with 'regular' vocals, which is what I do mostly, I'm learning to not belt out those higher notes but to use that organic compression to smooth it all out. It really saves your voice and helps with sustainability. I'm also adamant about warming up before shows (and daily exercises). If only I had done this years ago, I'd be a much better singer now!
Underground Nation well dude hopefully this video helped you some! But I’m going to be putting out more videos on vocals so this will give me some ideas
I was learnin to growl some time back but since I stopped, I kind of lost the ability to. I could still make the sound without my throat hurtin, but I could barely keep any breath and it didn't feel right. ONE video later and it sounds so much better, also easier to do! The "dont try to sing low" tip was the best
Duuuuude!!!! What you said about holding back was the ticket for me. Trying to belt it out gave me iffy results at best. But holding back gave me the tonal and volume control I was looking for. Such a simple concept but it’s pure gold! Thank you!
When i use this, my lows still sound a bit better than my false chord growls, tho I prefer using the false chrod because i can do it for longer. Still a great guide on what a classic death metal vocal is.
@@jasonstallworth yeah man! I'd love to hear your thoughts on diy mixing and/or mastering. These days i just throw an EQ8 on ableton or EQ on garageband, and Boss Metalzone the whole damn thing.
I've been working on this for myself for a while. The key point that I heard from someone at some point, was that death growling is a lot closer to a whisper than it is a yell or a growl.
I view it that way as well, and I guess many called this 'fry' vocals (I didn't even know that term when I made this video). But to me, this way of singing is better on my voice than trying to yell or scream using my chest voice.
I just picked up some KRK Classic 5 speakers and the're great! Thanks for turning me on to them. When I was a dedicated vocalist in a Death Metal band I used the cupped hand low growl technique. Lately i've been using bellowing screams but I think ill try your approach the next time I hit record. \m/
Yeah, dude, I have had these same KRK's since like 2011 or something! It's crazy. I like them because they're very easy for your ears to get used to them. So your mixing because a lot less effortless if that makes sense. Definitely try my vocal techniques and let me know what you think! I'd love to hear some feedback from other singers on this!
Good video fella. I moved back in with my parents temporarily so I can't really practice my growls but this gave me some new ideas to try out when I can
thank you so much i just figured this out because of your great video! i’ve listened to slam and a little death core and metalcore on the side, for many years. i’ve just started to listen to more death and brutal death metal bands and ended up singing along in a low guttural kind of style that you would do in deathcore, instead of the actual death growl. this happend to me because after years i’ve gotten really good at low gutturals, high gutturals or pig squeals, high fry screams and the black metal highs. almost all the bands i’ve been listening to in previous years don’t do death growls and only do a low guttural and some without the tongue pressed to i kind of assumed that’s what death growls were but i was very wrong. i was listening to the album trading pieces by deeds of flesh and was like they are definitely not doing guttural for the most part. that’s when i was like wait, it’s death growl. i figured it out and its just like a black metal scream but low! it’s literally the missing piece to my metal vocals, i have every style you can do absolutely down and many of them mastered, i just need to work on the death growls now. all that’s left is to convince my drum and guitar playing friends to form a brutal death band w me :)
Not that I am a death metal singer, I am a pop, rock, blues, genres, vocal coach. I was looking for reference material to see how different my method is and what I was expecting to see if I was on point with this. There is a lot of overlap but with compression and a lot less range.
I've apparently known how to metal growl for a while now, I've just never applied it to music. Thank you for the video anyways though, I would've never thought to sing using that technique.
Ive been trying to learn how to do death metal vocals for a while mainly because i want to sing meshuggah and opeth songs this was a pretty helpful video
I'm a metalhead. I've been a metalhead for 12 years. I'm already experienced ar doing high pitched black metal screams, and deep guttural death metal screams, and falsetto singing, but I'm watching this video because I love visiting other metal channels on TH-cam. You should check out Archspire- Human Mumuration And Bloodsoaked- No God
The tip to "use your normal voice" range instead of trying too hard to sing deeper was a game changer for me. Just that one tip really helped me in getting a solid metal tone instead of a crackly one that hurts my voice. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this video! I've been trying to figure out how to do the low roar, as I call it.. I had come to think of it as a falsetto, except under the voice, if that makes any sense. 🤷🏻♂️ But that didn't sound right when I did it, and was rough on the throat. This is so helpful! 🤘🏼❤️
I personally am not a natural singer not even close but I’ve always wanted to make a metal band which is why I force a work around. I don’t know any singers who care about or even tolerate metal so this helps a lot.
I'm glad this helped and the fact that you have that desire means that you have something to work with and you can develop your voice...so don't give up on it! Keep pressing forward and work on developing your own style!
Earlier this year, after bad practice of a vocalist by the way, I stopped by Del taco not the greatest choices, but it was 11 o’clock at night. Didn’t really have any other options. My point being is that I had a conversation through the drive-through window with the Del taco guy who works there in Deathmetal growls! it was fun unfortunately it was not captured on video but the memory will always be there. My boy being it’s fun to talk in Deathmetal voice especially if you know what you’re doing and even more fun to bring it to the bases and mainstream society, because they are not expecting it.!
Dude you are awesome, you remind me of a metal Joe Gilder (the mixing and recording youtuber). Not in appearance but just mannerisms and the way you talk
I sounds like a tween, but would like to put in the time and effort to see what I can do to get a super fun deathcore sound. One day starts today! Yay! Good vibes coming at ya! Thank you for your instruction. Gonna see what I can do. 😹
Thanks for the lesson bro. My wife is a bit confuse now as i kept on repeating “must kill all” she’s definitely have no idea at all what i’m trying to learn.
@@jasonstallworth thanks!! Don't really have anyone around me for support in this, so reading your comment kinda helps me think that this is a skill/hobby I shouldn't drop!
tinycrumb._. You’re right...do not drop it, and never give up!!! You will always find a way and your path, but you have to be willing to keep pushing, no matter what!
My death metal album should be ready for vocals late this year, so I'll download this video and see what I can do. Maybe someone with a early Barnes vocal ability will hear it and reach out to me to rerecord with his/her vocals, haha
As a person who does metal vocals I'm not 100% this is the way I'm doing it. It seems like you're in evil speaking voice, but if you get serious vocal or false folds action going it is both pretty loud and much more forward and aggressive. I'd love to see you chat about this with someone like Marc from Karadavox or Sibila extreme vocal or David Benites from Extreme Vocal Institute, I think they'd give a lot of insight to what you're doing here.
@@Akerfeldtfan thanks for your input. What I’ve learned is there’s more than one way to do things. And this video is just one element. I believe above all, the most important thing is to focus on your own style and not try to sound like someone else
Lol...yeah a band can be really tough with all the different personalities and creative differences. There are some benefits to being solo! But I do miss playing on stage with a band!
@@jasonstallworth i know, i play solo cause i can but having a band would be epic. I said that cause i play guitar bass and drums so that would be the only thing remaining
@@jasonstallworth Please do some Six Feet Under with understandable (no puns) Vocals to overcome the cliche that Death Metal Vocals are for Sesame Street’s Cookie Monsters.
Nice tutorial, I still can't make the sound right, probably need a lot more practice. Just checked out your song "Final Reign" and it is one of the best death metal songs I've heard in a while, fuckin sick dude.
Thank you :) I have an entire blog post with more tips on this style here 'How to Sing Extreme Vocals Without Killing Your Voice" - www.jasonstallworth.com/sing-death-metal/
Good stuff man, personally don't have singing aspirations.....there's guitar players and singers, my voice isn't cool enough to sing so i'll get someone else to do that for me
The Faceless There’s absolutely no shame in that, dude! In fact, sometimes it’s best to just put 100% focus on that 2 thing!! I haven’t been singing for almost as long as I’ve been playing, but have primarily been a guitar player and I was only creating instrumental music for a while (which I will still continue to do!). But it’s only recently I discovered a hidden passion for this particular vocal style.
Are vocal processors available that can be used to intensify the growls? My problem is I can't keep up the growls for long. My throat dries up and I start to cough 😅
There are vocal processors but I do not use them (only some compression, reverb and sometimes delay). Using over the top effects is going to mask what you’re really doing vocally and that could just you in the long run.
My biggest challenge while doing death metal vocals or black metal vocals is breath control. It's gotten better over the years, but I could still use some improvement.
Sounds like earlier David Vincent. I'm learning to use my diaphragm and core instead of vocal cords. When I tried to use my vocal cords I'd go into a coughing fit afterwards!
Yeah, you definitely want to change what you're doing if you're coughing afterwards. I had that issue in the beginning which is why I started pushing the air out rather than trying to scream or yell. To be honest, I only did death metal vocals for one album. I use my regular singing voice most of the time these days.
I am struggling to make it natural to the organs' doings, but I keep growling and hurting my urethra Though I'm just gonna keep practising and get it right
i love how he very professionally sings "he tells me to kill".
😂🤘
So as a woman with a naturally deep voice this is amazing. My growls last much longer and that control tip helped SO MUCH.
Amanda Keesler awesome, that’s so great to hear!! It’s also awesome to have another female death metal vocalist!!! You girls add such a cool element to this style of music!

Very passionate

It is basically whisper. When I'm growling it is between speaking voice and whisper. But spitted in microphone it sounds loud.
It's all about not damaging your voice
It's surprisingly easy!
🤘
My death metal album should be ready for vocals late this year, so I'll download this video and see what I can do.
Maybe someone with a early Barnes vocal ability will hear it and reach out to me to rerecord with his/her vocals, haha
🤘
As a person who does metal vocals I'm not 100% this is the way I'm doing it. It seems like you're in evil speaking voice, but if you get serious vocal or false folds action going it is both pretty loud and much more forward and aggressive. I'd love to see you chat about this with someone like Marc from Karadavox or Sibila extreme vocal or David Benites from Extreme Vocal Institute, I think they'd give a lot of insight to what you're doing here.
@@Akerfeldtfan thanks for your input. What I’ve learned is there’s more than one way to do things. And this video is just one element.
I believe above all, the most important thing is to focus on your own style and not try to sound like someone else
Definitively trying to use this. Who needs band members anyway
Lol...yeah a band can be really tough with all the different personalities and creative differences. There are some benefits to being solo! But I do miss playing on stage with a band!
@@jasonstallworth i know, i play solo cause i can but having a band would be epic. I said that cause i play guitar bass and drums so that would be the only thing remaining
@@jasonstallworth Please do some Six Feet Under with understandable (no puns) Vocals to overcome the cliche that Death Metal Vocals are for Sesame Street’s Cookie Monsters.
Cool sounds great bud! I have been screaming for decades and could never hit low growls because they are too "airy" or no power 🤔
Airy is ok but you can give that a little more push, too. I was never great at all-out screaming so I stick with the airy and false chord stuff
Great video man this helped out a lot
Awesome to hear that, brother!
@@jasonstallworth Thank you
i want to sing call me maybe in death metal
You can!!
Great, thanks Sir.
🤘
Nice tutorial, I still can't make the sound right, probably need a lot more practice. Just checked out your song "Final Reign" and it is one of the best death metal songs I've heard in a while, fuckin sick dude.
Oh dude, thank you for checking out that song! It's probably the most extreme vocally on the album!
can u make another video but more in depth ?
I have an in depth guide here: www.jasonstallworth.com/sing-death-metal/
Less than a minute in and NOW I get it.
🤘
Amazing skills
Thank you :)
I have an entire blog post with more tips on this style here 'How to Sing Extreme Vocals Without Killing Your Voice" - www.jasonstallworth.com/sing-death-metal/
Good stuff man, personally don't have singing aspirations.....there's guitar players and singers, my voice isn't cool enough to sing so i'll get someone else to do that for me
The Faceless There’s absolutely no shame in that, dude! In fact, sometimes it’s best to just put 100% focus on that 2 thing!!
I haven’t been singing for almost as long as I’ve been playing, but have primarily been a guitar player and I was only creating instrumental music for a while (which I will still continue to do!). But it’s only recently I discovered a hidden passion for this particular vocal style.
“Let whatever comes out, just be what that is.” My takeaway
The best way is your own way!
Are vocal processors available that can be used to intensify the growls? My problem is I can't keep up the growls for long. My throat dries up and I start to cough 😅
There are vocal processors but I do not use them (only some compression, reverb and sometimes delay). Using over the top effects is going to mask what you’re really doing vocally and that could just you in the long run.
My biggest challenge while doing death metal vocals or black metal vocals is breath control. It's gotten better over the years, but I could still use some improvement.
Yeah dude, that's the culprit of it all, and I still have to remind myself at times!
Sounds like earlier David Vincent. I'm learning to use my diaphragm and core instead of vocal cords. When I tried to use my vocal cords I'd go into a coughing fit afterwards!
Yeah, you definitely want to change what you're doing if you're coughing afterwards. I had that issue in the beginning which is why I started pushing the air out rather than trying to scream or yell.
To be honest, I only did death metal vocals for one album. I use my regular singing voice most of the time these days.
I am struggling to make it natural to the organs' doings, but I keep growling and hurting my urethra
Though I'm just gonna keep practising and get it right
You definitely should not feel pain doing any type of singing. I also encourage folks to do proper warm ups with their regular voice
Jason thanks for the helpful very helpful
