[@yesh6545]

this woman is a badass! "cause she trained, Oliver sykes, matt tuck, jeffrey of capture and even randy of lamb of God! and man she knows every technique of screaming! and the fact that people disliking this video is because they don't even know how famous she is!

[@krystalharwood1807]

and so did ariel burdett

[@leonardoarambula7283]

And corey taylor

[@Marta1Buck]

corey? for real?

[@youknowhuwitis]

That's funny because both Oli Sykes and Matt Tuck now have deteriorating voices....

[@guitar_zero797]

The one dude had cancer i think and She prob taught Matt after he destroyed his voice and he sounds way better now imo

[@TonyPizzaPie]

This lady is the first Greybeard, Master of Thu'um.

[@ace-iii]

she is also a clean vocal singing teacher not only a screaming teacher!!!

[@shaanminocha4079]

She is like Mother of Metal , Didnt want the next rock generation to hurt thier throats #respect

[@Rohme.33]

she's so dope

[@DSB_SF]

Why are people disliking this?

[@timskza]

There are people who buy likes on youtube, and youtube hates them. There are bots that do this, and in order for their accounts not to be taken down, they have to dislike videos to be genuine. This doesn't mean this channel bought likes, but someone else did.

[@ytubeanon]

I didn't know that happens, but I downvoted just cuz the screaming is lame

[@wessamlauf]

ytubeanon ur lame

[@unviversalyhappy]

Being safe isn't metal

[@stargazer7668]

[@nazman465]

[@user-mq5dr1jh5t]

[@cuauhtemocmorisco3493]

[@WilfredBryaq]

[@druidactual]

[@searbhreathach9762]

The more noise you make the worse it is for your vocal chords?

[@paulorosas18]

Escape the Fate

[@themetalgamingzone]

Definitely have the tube knowledge of scream

[@joeredfield7647]

I want to learn to scream like Adam Gontier and Sully Erna

[@Bestialce2007]

So she inhales the screams instead of exhaling them?

[@truedarklander]

Bestialce2007 inhale screams are actually more dangerous. She teaches both tho. Inhales are much more demonic and are used in Brutal Death Metal

[@w.reactor]

hahahha it sound like a last dying dinosaur after the meteor strike hahahahahhahaha

[@krystalharwood6359]

wonder who trained izzy and aaralyn

[@Ugottalovemar]

1:27. What the heck!!

[@marcfield6166]

There is a right and a wrong way to do everything.

[@SventheFenn]

Is she teaching them enhale screaming?

[@julianvaleri2220]

Sven the Fenn i think she teached both inhales and exhale. She literally knows every technique

[@OrangeCounty92]

If you can effortless master inhale smoothly. Then you can do exhales too. The methods are supposed to feel similar. It's to help people understand how to.use your diaphragm.

[@emilyjohannap.9568]

Mostly fry screams

[@SalemVHS]

Look, its Craig Mabbitt

[@gasstationgraffiti]

[@gabby20]

Oh WTF !!!!! I stopped it 2 secs into the video. I'm on earphones

[@picklesoncucumber4614]

I want to learn singing songs from linkin Park. You know, songs like: Keys to the Kingdom
given up
War
by Myself
But, i dont know where to start, also i dont wanna mess up my voice, im getting 14 next month, i need my voice for my whole life.
I know it would take veeeery long to learn to scream like Chester,
But it would be worth it.

[@marcijanzagar4796]

Im 14 -15 and i wanna learn some techniques to scream mostly false vocal cords and it's great if you wanna scream at someone too😂

[@K1l1l1l9]

[@bustercherry8734]

She's ruining death metal vocals by teaching that fry crap.

[@4248toby]

why is this Ways hi my name is Kitty iPhone

[@unknown_entity2176]

Does grammar exist?

[@47tilinfinity29]

is that guy Kurt cobain

[@johnmalihanbayot6405]

thats kurt cocaine

[@cenoaceno3251]

José Protasio Rizal Mercado y Alonso Realonda 😂😂😂😂

[@paolodellacorte4627]

I think that this still ruins your voice

[@ytubeanon]

If you want to learn to scream listen to Tame by the Pixies and do what he does:
ruclips.net/video/Xr-KjNGrXVY/видео.html

[@applecake122]

She is surely competent, but I wonder where she got her knowledge about guttural singing from. Guttural singing is not acceptable in opera.

[@MM-bm3uj]

I've never heard her scream in any other way other than that one horrible scream

[@fuckthisc1ty]

Meh I have some videos hope it helps people

[@stepanserdyuk4589]

She's awesome.
Screaming is eww, but she's awesome!

[@radovantoth7233]

Wow she cant screm

[@allhailzoidberg8182]

Doesn't matter if she cant scream, she is teaching these singers the method on how to safely scream.

[@radovantoth7233]

Kayla B missclick. Happens when u r from eastern europe

[@whateveryasaypal5022]

but the effort is what makes the emotion real, and the fact that it hurts reflects the hurting emotion the vocalist feels

[@IdeaBug]

Jonathon Gordon yeah and then they damage they're vocal folds so badly that they can only make music for a year and they'll never be able to talk or sing again
Then the only emotion they'll feel is sadness cause they can't keep doing what they love
