@connormiddleton2859 The train whistle is what they call the sound that David Lee Roth did on many of the early Van Halen albums. If you listen to them, you'll hear DLR do many the vocal tricks in this video, including DLR's most famous vocal trick, the train whistle. It's sounds almost like two or three voices or like a steam whistle from the day when trains ran on steam. I believe that even coal burning stain had a small water tank for their steam whistles.
It's one of those styles you don't hear no more and I'm surprised this dude can do it bc most of the time when it's done it's not correct but in some people like Phil Anselmo back in the 80s 90's Rob Halford for instances are those examples of people that could pull it off and can do it without sounding corny
What I love about this demonstration is is the "yawning state" as a way to emphasize breathing from the diaphragm along with relaxing & opening up the throat. It is very easy to put a lot of tension on the larynx to do that sort of scream, but that can quickly destroy one's voice, sometimes to the point of permanently damaging one's vocal cords. Instead, this video is excellent for showing better vocal posture and breathing in a really simple and succinct manner.
Wow, that scream at 1:28 has the exact same pitch (G#5) and sound/style as Rob Halford's primal scream in the beginning of Ram It Down! Cool video, man! :)
Just happened upon this video and found the scream resembling a lot of the power metal screams from bands I listen to. The Wicked Rule the Night by Avantasia is a prime example! That's pretty insane!
Man! I have been talking to Michael Starr on this David lee Roth Scream. And he had no clue how to explain. Had a dream to find some one who can actually perform that sound. And show that . Can you school me on this one ? So I can sing Van Halen. A dream come true?) how to reach you ?) thanx ! U Rock !
I'm in exactly the same situation as you. I can sing quite well, really well actually, and I can cover most things well except the Roth whistle stuff. I would really like to be able to do it, but you can't just 'do it'. The best information I have on it is that it's a 'breath' type of thing where you breath out while compressing, and eventually a small 'sound' or 'creaks' will appear and you keep practicing and practicing and eventually those small creaking sounds will develop over time. You have to spend a ton of time practicing and working on it though so, I have not done that.
@@JohnnyRawks you are correct. There’s a whistle that you have to grow. Not “whistle register” like Mariah Carey, something completely different done with air. I could teach you how to do it if you’d like
Heck yeah man for sure. A great way is to follow scales on a piano and I do get my acoustic and play about an hour’s worth of John Denver to work on my range like songs Eagle And Hawk, Flying For Me I wanna Live. Calypso those styles of John Denver. Believe me it’ll open your nasal up. To me it helps. Also I listened to Judas Priest constantly growing up.
Heard this on SiriusXM's "trash Pop" today and I thought of you. Obscure Tom Jones song called "Chills and Fever". This week's "coolest song in the world".
Fucking beautiful, the sustain reminds me of dime bag darrells guitar fucking going off with that tremolo arm! I’m saving this to my playlist to practice.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 This was the most random video I clicked on. OMG!!! You had me cracking up!! I must admit that train whistle was outta of this world. I just subbed. I love craziness. Julie
I like this video because it gives the key for a good scream which is nothing else except madness. All the vocal lessons round the internet are a boring headache with lots of intros about subscribes. I agree make crazy sounds, feel wild and here comes the screaming!!!
@@jeffersonmassive I was raised thinking slippery when wet just came out lol, just curious, do you use vocal fry to hit that sometimes or just singing into that relaxed sigh? Sorry I am a vocalist too and just get so excited over this!
Thanks for sharing this. This was something I didn’t know I needed in my life and now I will be practicing doing this safely. I’m sure you will get plenty more views on this video from me alone!
Im a little late to see it but this video is awesome, i practiced the yawning state for a bit and i ALMOST reached the scream, but my voice would crack and break and id be left with a broken voice for a while. Could you do a more in-depth video on the scream and metal singing in general?
Great. So when I want to make a wild scream at a specific point in a song I have to make myself feel I want to yawn? I notice that I when I make my throat hurt then the next days I can make wild screams. Maybe I have to shout loud to find my old good harsh screams
This is the technique I use to keep on going. I learned it when I took some opera classes. It actually relaxes the throat. It’s kind of trippy and takes a while to get used to. Plus drink lots and lots of water. Eat healthy and I don’t drink alcohol. But everyone is different but the yawning state seems to help me tremendously.
A lot of it is from the diaphragm. How I learned myself was I would play individual notes on my electric guitar and try to match the notes. Plus I was raised in the 80’ through High School during the best music ever so I worked my tail off.
I can hit a G5 in full voice but how do you transition to the scream? I’m literally almost able to do it but can’t get my cords to let me transition to the high scream like that. I know the yawn technique too. Please get back at me bro..
You know what I do is follow and match the guitar a lot. All the way up the neck and I practice to a piano. That’s cool you hit the G5 in full voice. Growing up I did a lot of John Denver to this day he has the most powerful clean voice I’ve ever heard live
Приколы
This video slowly descends into madness.
You weren't kidding
LOL
I wasnt sure what a train whistle meant exactly but i didn't expect the guy to straight up make a train whistle sound lmaooo

Thanks. I’m 56 now and still screaming away. Gonna add songs on here soon
Please show this to Diamond Dave. I would love to see him get his scream back. He deserves it.
Diamond Dave is definitely one of my mentors and I learned how to scream from listening to Van Halen 1 and II

Just hard work and dedication man. I can do it. It took me two-three months but it's possible for anyone to learn how to do.

Drink tons of water and don’t push as hard until you get used to it. And drink collagen. Be careful with alcohol it dries up your throat.
This is awesome!
Thanks
This dude is my hero
Hey thanks tremendously
Great!
Thanks 🤘😎
Good vid but can yall imagine what people passing by thought
Naaah whatever, at least its helpfull🤭
I love doing those screams at rock concerts I usually get thumbs up or an occasional flip the bird but hey it’s all good to me.
I got all that but cannot duplicate. You can split scream...cool

I really LOVE the video, its really helpful but the comments are hilarious 😭😭😭
LOL Thanks
I laughed so bad 🤣 But dude, yeah the video was on point and very helpfull
Hey Thanks
Bro honestly I learned that scream in like 2 minutes… wtf. I’m speechless
Awesome man
Nice!
Thanks 🤘
Is there a more technical term for the high scream? The "80's scream" because avatar is one of my favorite bands I'd like to learn that
A lot of it is from the diaphragm. How I learned myself was I would play individual notes on my electric guitar and try to match the notes. Plus I was raised in the 80’ through High School during the best music ever so I worked my tail off.
Goddam this is great shit
Thanks
The train whistle is how Billy West does Jackie "The Jokeman" Martling's laugh.
I learned the train whistle trying to learn sounds watching Bugs Bunny cartoons lol
Holy shit!
Heck yeah rock on 🤘
Unreal
Hey Thanks
Why does he remind me of owen wilson from meet the folckers
LOL That is what a lot of people say
different talent
Thank ya
I guess I still have a lot to learn... Better get to it. 🤘
Practice but don’t burn your throat out. Do tons of vocal training and practice your voice with a piano and drink tons of water.
this is amazing, is this a talent or practice??
I practice on this every day. I vocalize on the piano and do breathing exercises too
Wow lol
Wow, incredible technique. Very hard to do
A lot of Judas Priest when I was a rug rat
Thanks owen wilson
LOL You are welcome.
Twanging mixed voice
My vocals just cut right when I try to do this.
Work your way up to it. Drink tons of water and practice vocal exercises on a piano and breathing from the diaphragm is a must
What i can hear is Andre Matos
Heck yeah
ngl wasnt expecting the yodle
Lol thanks. I’m going to post way more videos soon.
Who else still can’t do it lol
