Travis is STILL THE BEST! Metal Vocal Coach analyzes "A Photic Doom" By Cattle Decapitation
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ส.ค. 2024
- I've said it once and I'll say it again. Travis Ryan is my favorite metal vocalist, hands down, no question. Tons of experimentation across his career has made him one of the most unique and standout vocalists to date. Move over everyone else, Travis and the guys in cattle decap have released yet another banger.
along to. Its got a bit more start-and-stop than I'd normally like, but its still a gem of a tune!

What makes Travis "stand out" to me is his amazing ability to not compromise his articulation in neither of his techniques. It sounds so natural.
When are we getting Travis on the channel?
that would make my life
Yes please!
He's always seemed extremely down to earth in most stuff I've seen him in outside performances so I doubt he'd be opposed, but they are on tour currently I think lol
I would absolutely love this, but I have no idea how he would feel about that...
@@KardavoxAcademy Fair point. I think I miss having guest vocalists on your videos of their content just in general. Hearing their perspective on technique is really helpful and interesting! :) Regardless, another great analysis by Mark. Loving the Terrasite album so far!
I'm not even a vocalist, but I find these videos super interesting. So much goes into harsh vocals that I don't think many realize. Super cool stuff, as always, Mark!
Absolutely! I'm glad you keep watching!
I saw Cattle Decapitation in California in the 90s, back when Travis was wearing a beef jerkey mask during his performances. He's been in my top 3 vocalists of all time ever since. He was amazing back then. Now... god level.
I have been watching this band live for 20 years and I have always noticed the technique he does where he pushes his tongue out against the side of his mouth.
It was always such a unique thing to me and produces some real grimy sounds that always served them well with their old school material that leaned more towards grind.
Album of the year.
👍
YES YES YES 🔥🔥🔥 This whole album is BLAST. Every song is worth a video to be honest!
I'm really looking forward to checking out the full album!
💯 This album is perfect all the way through. I've had Terrasite and Invent Animates new album, Heavener on repeat. So good
His vocal patterns and choices on terrastic adaptation is really brilliant
Cattle decapitation has been my favorite band since 2005 Travis was my childhood hero and I got to meet him this last Monday. Not only is he the best vocalist. He's also a really badass guy so sometimes you can meet your heroes!
Except when you mention deathcore around him lmao
Hell yeah!
@@camdrouilhet6892 every one knows already and im sure they are tired of hearing questions about it, they dont like it, i would get annoyed too if i was asked constantly my take on desthcore even though i dont play deathcore music
Travis is not wrong about deathcore lol
@@aartur1254 he might be a dick about it but he is allowed to not like it, doesnt make him wrong
Easily a top-tier vocalist and best record of the year. Best Cattle Decap album I’ve paid for. Terrasite is so great
I love how he feels bad about cursing when he’s covering a song by cattle decapitation
irl i curse all the time. I'll say heck in front of your grandmother. I don't give a toot
@@KardavoxAcademy lmaooo love your videos man! And I haven’t been able to stop listening to Liminal Rite!! Impeccable album
LETS ALL DIE TOGETHER IN THE SUN!! 🔥🤘🤪🤘🔥
Just came across this since I am a huge cattle decap fan, and noticed the Kardashev album in the background just to learn you are their vocalist, I love your music a lot!
I just got to see these guys live for the first time in Dallas, absolutely monstrous performance, and Travis of course sounds fucking awesome, huge inspiration for me.
He's just so good at what he does!
Did they play for long? I'm seeing them next Saturday and wanna find out how much space I should make on my phone. Lol
My fellow students, i iust wanted to share something thats helped me recently. If youre racking your brain, trying to figure out how a certain vocalist sounds the way they do, watch them live. You may find your sound isnt too far off from them. I realized this with Tom Barber. Tone wise my highs were close. I watched several live videos and realized i just needed a wider smile. Something so simple took me a year to figure out but in the end took about a hour.
I absolutely love your videos and your love for Travis and the Cattle Decap dudes. They are good friends of mine and my husband's and I am beyond stoked to see them getting the recognition and praise they deserve! Thank you for continuing to share their music and disgusting amount of talent with the world.
P.S. I'm also a metal vocalist and have learned some sweet tips from you (and Travis) over the years so thank you for that too! :)
this album is a masterpiece, i thought nothing will beat death atlas but this is god tier
Hellyeah dude! Travis just keeps pushing, this album is fantastic all the way through.
man, i've been listening to your band for sometime, honestly I was quite surprised by your album in the best way, i kept it on repet for a while and now I find this channel, subscribed
God, I love your enthusiasm. Great video ❤🔥
Thanks for watching!
Your reaction at 16:30 is exactly how I feel every time Travis goes into that mode. It's so good.
It's about time these guys got shown some love!
He has other videos on them.
I've always loved Travis, literally the first video I ever did on the channel was about him, haha!
@@johnathonklinedinst5889 they're my favorite episodes. Along with that Cardi B (I'm not sure if that's right)
That one was hilarious!
A photic doom is the entry dish. scourge of the offspring is the main dish
and solastalgia the desert😂😂😂😂❤
My voice could never allow me to do any of this but I love learning how it works.
I love the detail of acting and adding drama to the vocals.
Too many metal vocalists forget that the whole point of harsh vocals is to try an emulate some evil creature from beyond.
Travis is truly an amazing vocalist, I’ve always loved the ranges he goes to in each song, many different types.
Scourge of the Offspring is my favorite song, if you have the time I’d love to hear your breakdown on that one! Also, props for the Warcraft 3 reference! Real OG game right there!! “More work??” Haha!
i was considering doing reaction videos as im a death metal vocalist and love mimicing vocalists and never see reactions where they discuss that side of the music, but ill leave it because you've filled the void in the reactions i've been looking for! liked and subscribed
Yeah I fangirl over Travis Ryan too. Wife got me a cameo with him and tickets to see them live, I was in the spit zone 😁
Subscribed you really did some good education, a little bit of fangirling, threw in a Devin Townsend shoutout, and pick some great tunes to breakdown. Sick bro!!
This is so good.
Love this channel.
I'v discovered this channel about 4 months ago, and I'm very happy about it. I learned so much from u mark, your enthusiasm and deepdive in every part of a song, to explain how it's done and what must be done to achieve such a cool tone/sound, is so good man. (and your facial expressions on filthy breakdowns and brutal voices are so natural and fun to watch😄) Solid work as always 🤘🤘 keep doin great work.
Thank you so much for covering this song dude.
I remember using the singing goblin type voice (albeit in an unhealthy way im sure), in an old band I was in. But more for accents and background layers, dont think id ever do a whole section with it like Cattle does, mainly for the reason you gave.
One thing from Travis I DO like to use sometimes is trying to Scream or Growl in key and bend the note up or down. He did that a bit in Anthropocene and its a cool sound that isnt so, like, blatantly Travis when used.
When you do the orcs in Duratar, I can't help but hear Cookie Monster saying "Cookie!?"😂
Definitely the goat! Awesome video!
seen these live in 2016 liverpool and i was 16, it was pure savagery.
@Kardavox Academy @Mark @Chat @World of Warcraft Players & Fans
..."Lok'tar Ogar Friend's!"..
Dammit! Now, I wanna' go play me some Classic!
Haha, I'm geeking out Baby!
-Cheers all!
Well ive commented a lot here on my vocal confusion. But lately i started clean singing again. Mainly because i wanted more of a feeling of being relaxed to translate to screaming. Its also reallllyyyyyyyy helped my breath support. I still havent done a full song yet but have been doing parts of songs while i walk to the store and damnit im back! My foundation is settled so now its time to fine tune. Thanks for everything Mark i still plan on getting lessons one day though
I like your videos a lot. You are very charismatic, thank you for the videos
Zwielicht/Symphony of a Dying Star by Mental Cruelty
Their new vocalist is unbelievably skilled, I hope we see more music from them soon!
@@Graive17 They announced an album soon, but i don't remember when it comes out lol. 😂
@@Jens_Roadster oh shit seriously? I'll look into it, that's exciting!
@@Graive17 Yeah, i thought i saw it on their Instagram.
June 23rd 🤩
Cattle Decap is the best at it right now. There is a lot of good metal right now. But The only band that comes to mind if someone put a gun to my head and said, who is the best metal band right now, it's them.
really great stuff! thank you!
Gotta say... when i clicked on this video was not expecting warcraft orcs impersonations
You're welcome!
Awesome video, Travis is my favorite 🤘🏻
Album absolutely slays omg
Totally agree!! Travis is the best of the best!!
Got to see these guys live in December with Obituary and Amon Amarth.
This is going to be rad!
Travis is a university professor of metal vocals :) One of the most respected vocalists! Would love to see their classic songs on this channel as well, like "to serve a man"! Also "Mammals in Babylon" and "Pacific Grim" are the outsdanting ones for me.
When I saw this video the other day I was hoping You and Charismatic Voice would react to it. I've listened to the album a couple of times and there are definitely some good songs on it, not sure it beats Death Atlas but good stuff. And I'm sitting here watching TH-cam instead of seeing them in Charlotte tonight, it sold out before I could get tickets
Travis proves again why he’s the GOAT! I hope you can get a chance to react to Scourge of the Offspring. It’s such a great track. I also love that when a lot of vocalists started to mimic a style he’d been doing for years he just came up with another unique style of vocals.
I LOVE that Travis "sings" alot more, he has an amazing voice, and i love their journey to a more melodic tech metal band!
That hissing high is cool. My personal favorite way to hit highs is your tip for nasally "aye" or "ah i see" track positioning. Lines everything up perfectly for me.
This album is certainly on par with Death Atlas, and I wasn't sure they'd be able to do that. It'd be foolish to think anyone can top their Magnus opus and CD did it in the best way; Terrasite is fucking incredible!
I'm excited to check out the full album!
those absolutely PERFECT “doubles”.
At first, it sounded like at least three layers of vocals, but the more I pay attention, I think it is just perfect harmonies with singular notes played on the GUITAR. I can’t tell now.
18:27 : Best Jack Black imitation ever !
Joke aside, I came just to see you react on the other-wordly singing section, but ended up watching the whole video which was very interesting, even for a non-singer.
Cheers for frrrrrance !
The cleans feel very comfortable when you get them down - took me a while to hit those!
Hell yeah!
The whole new album is amazing!!!
I just went and listened to kardashev thanks to this vid...and honestly, stop what you're doing and go listen. Awesome dude!
Haha, thanks for the kind words dude - glad you like it!
I really liked your discussion about inhabiting a sort of character when performing (certainly as a vocalist, though I think instrumentalists can inhabit characters as well during a performance). I think I mentioned this in other videos, but I come from a classical singing background, and what I was always taught was how inhabiting a character--or at least a mood--is the final step to taking your song from competent, to an actual performance that will impact whoever listens. My two favorite quotes regarding (especially) singing performance is "singing is acting on pitch" (said by a BYU professor--can't remember his name) and "it's all about the drama," said by German operatic bass, René Pape. Those two quotes work so well in tandem. This is why our favorite [metal] performers usually put such visual aggression into their performance, because otherwise the sounds wouldn't match the visuals, and we humans expect those two elements to match at least somewhat convincingly. Lastly--regarding this topic--absolutely master the fundamentals, but after that, it's amazing how very little you have to think about technique while inhabiting a character/mood. I still remember a coaching lesson I had where while I was singing a song, my coach would hold up random cards with one-word emotions written on them (e.g. angry, frightened, etc), and we were both surprised to discover that my technique issues that I was obsessing over at the time just melted into what was a really good performance. I think any musician can benefit from this realization.
Just real quick--I could be wrong about this, but--I think during those "sung" sections in Cattle Decap's songs have a layer of completely clean vocals, likely made with a head voice/falsetto/mix tone, and then he layers distortion onto that sound as he feels is appropriate. And it could very well be that one of those layers includes that singing with some distortion.
Anyway, great analysis as always. Thanks, Mark!
hearing you do a voice like a lich really makes me want to watch a whole-ass dnd campaign with you in it
No man you're right. It's Travs thing. If I heard tunnel vox with a tone, and notes... I'd be like this guy loves Cattle D.
Good point about the acting and being in character. Metal is THE most theatrical genre of all time if you ask me. Part of why we all love it i'm assuming.
But you're video is spot-on Travis Ryan is one of the greatest vocalist of all-time seriously he's been doing it for so long
you should do just another body from their newest album terrasite , mark:) Perhaps one of my favourite death metal songs of all time and now newly favourite cattle decap song . As always nice video , my friend
Get him on the show!! invite him and do a analysis video together!
Great advice on the acting with vocals. It’s something that a lot of people don’t think about because they are focused on the best show of their technique. You are screaming, don’t be afraid to look and sound absolute insane lmao 😂
Enterprise Earth did the clean vocal thing in the song Psalm of Agony also the end of the song was like straight from any DeadVectors song
1:07 It is a long fucking road.
Great news, by the way! I commented a couple months ago about losing my voice to some horrible mix of car wash overspray, drain cleaner fumes, and really bad allergies. Just wanted to say I'm at about 95% now (gonna take the L on that other 5%), can do my mids again, which I'd kind of lost while pushing my boundaries and practicing what Travis does. So now I have that all added to my arsenal, and can transition in and out of those deep gutturals and epiglottal (which I can do pretty loudly and I think it's fucking dope!), to the nasty wet soft pallet sounds, back into the more mid-range Jens Kidman and velociraptor/jaguar/tie-fighter Randal Blythe impersonation that I've done for years. I think that month and a half or so of not vocalizing did a lot of good to just reset the muscle groups and let everything start to mesh together. Keep rocking dude, love this channel, and love what you and The Charismatic Voice do! I have learned SOOOO MUCH from you two for the last three or so years. Much love!
14:20 Fun fact, my cousin (who I might be starting a project with soon) and I have an upstairs neighbor, and that's our knock to let us all know it's one of us at the door. Also, said neighbor and I just got pretty well pickled while we blasted this album for the first time saturday night, and I think I've listened to enough of their last 3 albums that I could pretty well predict the drops after the pauses. Solid album through and through!
Lowkey wish Travis would do more cleans because fucking hell, they're intimidating and mixed with how he looked in the video is horrifying.
Would you approach warm ups the same if you took a long break or a deeper warm up? If so would love a video or short of what you’d do after a ling break from vocals to get everything moving right again
Really brought out the Peon sounds from Warcraft, great comparison lol
You missed the best bit at around 6:18, 6:19, that final syllabe and the way he moves his face up away from the disgusting arm.
FOR THE HORDE
Come for the vocal techniques, stay for the World of Warcraft impressions
What do you think of Solastalgia? Best song on the album imo.
🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥
Is there finally any openings in the academy? I been trying for like 10 months
back in the day Id say Barnes, Benton and Lord Worm were the the greatest death metaL vocalists... then came Travis. he changed everything
Cattle Decapitation - Scourge of the Offspring other great song
I'm such a sucker for theatrics in metal vocals. The first Enfold Darkness album is such a blast because of how ridiculous and sing songy the vocal patterns are. They were totally Cradle of Filth worship back then but it was sick.
Is there a secret to the rolled r sound for people that can’t do it? Spanish class in high school was horrible for me 😅
Use your tongue in a place halfway between where you make an L and a D sound. Its somewhere in there
Millennial pause
I embraced the dark side long ago
Plz plz plz do a reaction to Eden Adversary-Lords of Gehenna! It's so insane vocally and I very much want to hear what you would have to say about it vocal wise
E-courses are a great idea for vocalists that are too shy and/or socially anxious to do 1 on 1 lessons.
Or want to learn at their own pace!
18:25 He was possessed by the spirit of Jack Black
Started 3 min ago. Fucking score!
Now I picture Travis as the orc peons.
Mark, please check out the new Make Them Suffer - Ghost Of Me 🙂
😂 Good luck even coming back to close to the vocals of the 🐐
Just out of curiosity, do you offer one on one lessons?
Yes, its my full time job! You can learn more at kardavoxacademy.com. We also have an online course coming out soon!
Rolling R's while screaming is incredibly hard for me lol i can only sound like a hissing cat with bronchitis
Ngl that sounds like it could sound pretty sick too
This new Album is the shit! ❤
Hell yeah!
Amon Amarth?
*Steeples fingers* " good good..."
10:45 so do your best megadeth impression before doing them harsh
father lucifer your light still casts a shadow In there emptiness we hide behind its veil ❤
@6:10 "let's hear these high vocals because they're going to be sick as farts" ????
I think the cleans are still silly but that's just me
I never thought my impressions of Cartman and warcraft 3 peons would come in handy one day 😂. Work work.
Why you keep poking me?. Poke poke poke is that all you do?
Thanks for making me watch Cattle Decap before I get my blood samples taken. I'm ready.
