Its so surreal to see how far Fit For a King has come over the years. I remember when they were still local. Im from Dallas and they are from Tyler, TX. They were still local, but they were one of those really popular, “big” local bands that was usually at the top of the bill. My band at the time, played a show with them at a Skatepark called Eisenbergs Skate Park in Plano, TX. My band and all the other bands were stoked to play with them, because we all looked up to them and their success, because again, they were that “big” local band and everyone was always talking about them. After the show i got to talk to the drummer, Jared Easterling (think thats how you spell his last name). He was super nice and down to earth. I remember, he was playing an a green Shine custom drum kit at the time. I fangirled so hard because i thought that was the coolest kit and I loved Shine Custom drums (still want a kit to this day even though they aren’t around) i want to say this was around 2011-ish, a little before they got signed to Solid State in 2012. They are the nicest dudes i’ve met in any band. I’m so happy with all they achieved as a band and it’s still so cool seeing how far they have come. If any of you guys in FFaK read this, you guys are the best and a huge inspiration the the Dallas metal scene.
Avenged Sevenfold influenced me into heavier metal. I am so happy that a singer was influenced by Chapter four. I love Chapter Four, Remenissions, and Second Heartbeat off of Waking the Fallen. Great album
@@aidankintz9285 been screaming for 15 years and I can honestly agree. When people ask me I legit tell them I have no idea I screamed until I figured things out over time haha
In another video he says his highs are fry but his other stuff isn’t exactly either false cord or fry. But I think in general his sound is more fry than anything.
Holy shit! EVERY SINGLE TIME I ever get strep throat I would get frustrated and try and scream anyway until I too would loose my voice entirely and after it would heal my screaming would be changed to entirely different pitches being easier! That's nuts! I always say that it changes my vocals but I never heard anyone else ever say that! ... super dope 🤘 🤘
I got into metal because I woke up one morning and was like “ you know what I wanna listen to metal” and I just started looking up metal bands My first ones were Demon hunter The chariot Norma Jean And as I lay dying
Got to meet ryan in august of 2019, amazing people. Sad i couldn't see them this year but im looking forward to seeing ffak in NC again! Loving the new album, and also FFAK is the band that got me back into metal and metalcore
This is really cool hearing all of this man. I found out that there’s another metal vocalist from a band called Convictions and their vocalist Mike actually does lessons for anyone who wants to learn
youtube tutorials: you have to learn breath support, the growl, projection, blablabla famous vocalist: uh idk, I once screamed through a line 6 and one year later I lost my voice but here I am
One time my brother and I were recording in between mattresses in the basement and mom came down and said "I appreciate what you're doing, but would you please wait until the morning" lol I always remember how nice she was because usually if we were just fighting and shit she would yell BOYS GO THE HELL TO BED.
Exact same think I thought! I remember seeing them in some shitty club in Toledo and there was only like 50 people there, but they were epic. Still listen to Kingdoms from time to time.
Man you should all look up the punk / metal/ hardcore on the soundtrack for tony hawks underground one , to name some off the top of my head the head NOFX , strike anywhere , (old) rise against , drop kick Murphy’s , mike v and the rats , Bracket , the addicts , sublimes song seed witch is an amazing amazing song that’s way more punk than ska , and those are some off the top of my head I’m missing a tone more great bands on there … oh oops almost for got they played the song Big Bang by bad religion talk about a life changing song for a little kid first getting into punk rock and hardcore / metal
Got to see ffak live with august burns red,miss may i and crystal lake in abq nm and im so sad i wanted to see them again this year with chelsea grin,crystal lake and mf alpha wolf but this covid shit happend and fuck man i was so sad.
Do you mean Slipknot made you appreciate heavier music and now you like Death metal/Deathcore? Or are you calling Slipknot death metal? They’re not death metal (I thought they were at one point as well, I hope this doesn’t come off as sounding pretentious, and correct me if I’m wrong). If I’m misinterpreting anything, my apologies. If you actually think Slipknot is death metal, I can give a lot of great “real” death metal and/or Deathcore bands to hopefully expand your love of metal. Just trying to be helpful \m/
th-cam.com/video/pXkOdke_8TI/w-d-xo.html For those of you wanting to hear the band he was talking about that inspired him to be in a band. You're welcome lol. They were huge in the D/FW Texas local scene for a while.
Hes sound fucking exactly like this guy from a youtube channel called let's game it out I swear its him but they dong have the same name like identical fucken voices
I learned when I was 15 I started screaming to Silverstein and atreyu. I’d scream in my car while I was driving, I couldn’t ever figure out how to project my vocals though like I was stuck in that whisper scream stage then I was like oh yea it’s a scream you gotta be loud and when I tried it just happened. Side note, I met Shane told, the vocalist of Silverstein a couple years later at my first warped tour, he was by himself at their booth and I told him he was a huge influence and the guy just stood there looking around ignoring me so my buddy told him to have a scream off with me and Shane goes “I’m on break” lol guy was a total douche
hey Ryan... if you ever happen to read this comment... could you please consider writing more bold songs and lyrics for y'alls faith in Jesus Christ? The Path was extrmely void of it but a good album none the less
Practicing vocals at home, underestimated struggle
Foreal bro, between the learning and having the whole neighbourhood thinking you're having an extreme mental breakdown
@@kpatty9987 why this is so fucking real? haha i use the bathroom outside of my house to practice my gutturals and high screams
@@fernandosaldivia6556 the struggle is real my dude
@@fernandosaldivia6556 My best guttual ever was when I was taking a shit at the same time while practicing xD!!!
That’s how everyone starts out, your not just instantly on stage and fronting a band
Dear Lord, I'm so old now that A7X is people's inspiration
I feel you.
He's an amazing screamer 🔥
Your PfP made me scream xD
“And after the show I was spitting up blood.” METAL AF
Saying that's metal AF makes you sound like a full on twat
@@dizzyshay236 agree with this.
Nathan Explosion would approve

Such a killer album. Still jam it to this day.
Madden was the GOAT for soundtracks. When "Four Words to Choke Upon" came on at the menu for Madden 06, I lost my shit. Changed my life.
Madden 07 had Ex's and Oh's by Atreyu 😛
@@zackdissolves 08 had Becoming the Bull
tony hawk games and need for speed games too
@@blackroseknight923 NHL 08 had a lot as well as Smackdown vs raw, whichever year you play, they had bangers
I’d love to see a second part to this series where they actually scream or possibly even teach a bit about technique
I think he does vocal lessons. But to inform you, he uses vocal fry.
He doesn't even know what technique he uses lol. He's said he just started screaming and found what quirks best for him
@@aidankintz9285 been screaming for 15 years and I can honestly agree. When people ask me I legit tell them I have no idea I screamed until I figured things out over time haha

I got into heavy of the Tony Hawk game soundtracks.
same here. Blood Brothers
Love fit for a king!
YO I love FFAK, favorite band ever and was the one that got me into metal, thank you guys so much for having him on!
Holy shit! EVERY SINGLE TIME I ever get strep throat I would get frustrated and try and scream anyway until I too would loose my voice entirely and after it would heal my screaming would be changed to entirely different pitches being easier! That's nuts! I always say that it changes my vocals but I never heard anyone else ever say that! ... super dope 🤘 🤘
Stop getting strep throat 🤮
He is one of my favorite screamers
I meet Ryan and the band once in Manchester after their gig! Amazing Guys! Much Love
Such cool guys to talk to; very intelligent and funny as HeLL... I mean heck! LoL! Being a screamer and not cancelling is hardcore!
Did he just reference Broadway??? What a throw back.
I got into metal because I woke up one morning and was like “ you know what I wanna listen to metal” and I just started looking up metal bands
My first ones were
Demon hunter
The chariot
Norma Jean
And as I lay dying
The Chariot and Norma Jean are phenomenal bands.
I heard Scarlxrd, then started liking metal
Demon hunter was what got me into metal, thank killing floor 2 for me even finding the band
Love how awesome bands got their inspiration from awesome bands as well. Superb vocals 🔥
Cupping the Mic, reminds me of Glenn Fricker from Spectre Sound Studios
Got to meet ryan in august of 2019, amazing people.
Sad i couldn't see them this year but im looking forward to seeing ffak in NC again! Loving the new album, and also FFAK is the band that got me back into metal and metalcore
@Caleb Browning I’m seeing them on the 22nd at ABR Leveler anniversary tour
DUDE! Broadway played at a show in my town! They were awesome!

Omg haha waking the fallen is my fav album and also introduced me to heavy vocals
You guys should do this interview with Sam from Architects.
Edit: Briton from Wage War would be great, too.
My guy has a voice as smooth as butter and a scream as sharp as knives
I believe it is because of the all the post editing or because of the noise reduction with the mic.
FFAK is amazing.
Dude has a great radio voice.
"I was spitting up blood." Ouch! That hurts 😫😫
Make me a memory!!!!
What an underrated band!
Broadway? Like the "Same Thing We Do Everyday Pinky" Broadway?
Exact same think I thought! I remember seeing them in some shitty club in Toledo and there was only like 50 people there, but they were epic. Still listen to Kingdoms from time to time.
My ears perked up when he said Broadway as well lol
gah still listen to them to this day. they won’t ever get old ngl
Kingdoms was such an amazing album
@@PTWU23 i’m listening to them atm
Fit for a king 👑 🔥🔥👀

Had no idea who he is, but I like his story and I like his overall vibe!

Love this!
Awesome vid
My favorite band EVERRRRRRR
Blood and pain are the key to true brutal lows
I was at the show that they intro-ed ffak
I'm over here still just trying to figure out how to scream in the first place xD
Broadway was amazing!

Dude. I know the guitarist from Broadway, Felipe Sanchez. They were good

Do a series of different bands
Early '00s madden kill man!
I was always into 3DG, MCR, Sum 41 and etc #Emo
But, recently got into Death Metal and Deathcore, thanks heaps to SlpKnt 🖤🤘🏾🔥

@@william4373 I had that thought, all good, sorry. Like I said, I myself actually thought they were death metal at one point.
Used to love the madden soundtracks 😭

Pretty sure he got nodes at 17 and damaged his vocal chords from screaming now he can do lows really well.
We NEED one of these from Ivan Moody
Why?
Misha Camacho?? 1:10
So mitch lucker got his legendary screams from bronchitis and he got his screams from strep lol
Lmao, local band called broadway
Rename to why I learned to scream
Ok, so cup the mic and articulate. Got it.
Hardest christian screamer hands down.
How Jesus learned to scream
ไอดอลผมเลย
I had strep throat too please take this advice dont scream a lot and drink gatorade at the same time that food coloring is so bad for your throat
hey Ryan... if you ever happen to read this comment... could you please consider writing more bold songs and lyrics for y'alls faith in Jesus Christ? The Path was extrmely void of it but a good album none the less

Poorly, the answer is poorly. Seen them live and they just aren't that impressive.
