Low screams and growls use more air and mastering good technique presents unique challenges and risk of injury.
Further, you've got to do some experimenting that really makes you feel and look ridiculous... YES... Even more so than you've experienced before while following my channel.
Let me walk you through three key exercises to help you develop the right and safe way to growl and access powerful low, brutal screams.
If you follow these easy, low impact exercises and do them mindfully, there's no reason you will not be able to inject these wonderful sounds into your voice!

Imagine … you’ve got us all screaming “BUM-MOOOOO” in our rooms 😂
Literally me now... my poor neighbors 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Haha
It’s the work van for me😶
Yup 😂🙈
Haha totally
It is not just the way you explain all these technics, it is also HOW SHINE IS YOUR HEAD! Very well, you are great, Chris!
hehe, thank you! :) I work hard on the head shining :)
@@chrisliepe 😁
Came for the polished growls, stayed for the polished dome
AHAHA
Chris. if you only knew how far I've come over the last 6 months watching your content and engaging in my vocal journey. You're free, low hanging fruit for gaining motivation and feeling less alone in this all. Thank you dude
You're so very welcome! Happy to hear of your success!
Right... in like 3 or 4 days I've Def gotten more here than everywhere else combined. In the industry you get a budgeted arrangement agreed by how much faith is in your music as a buisness... you automatically assume most of this to no longer be your priority or is someone else's tasks... the reality is most those guys have little to no regards for your ass... it's just about the money.. kinda like lawyers.. you get what was payed for.. but to get so much logic and basic sense to just navigate your own choices is priceless vs just accepting what's handed back to you because you assumed it not to be your job or whatever . If that makes sense.. your better off staying out of the industry and in your garage by like 76 football fields... that's honest... I guess it's prob about your personal goals but.. they can have that bullshit in my opinion and I'm good d.i.y. maybe it's been there done that or age but I'd rather have junk shit equipment doing my thing my way than pekerheds with top shelf shit that totally scubs off all authentic soundscapes.
Whoa. I just tried BUM-MO, and I death growled on the MO. It was the strongest death growl note I ever had
2:20 unintentional perfect Patrick Star impression. Great lesson by the way.
Dead on, here! I’m a vocal coach and everything you’re doing is excellent! Thanks!K
Thanks! I'm glad you like what I'm doing here Kevin!
Hey @TangSongs, do you have any advice for an ameture metal vocalist?
Here is me, a 40 year old geezer who's been told by many guys that someone my age could never learn extreme metal vocals. Guess what...your tutorials got me to a good start. Awesome work mate. 🤘🤘🤘
As a woman, This shit is good. Good tips for both men and women trying to do metal vocals!
As an actor, I can't tell you enough how much this has helped me in both dramatic and comedic screaming!
Hello everyone ! Everything that Chris said in this video is awesome. No matter what your range is you can learn to do this. I'm a fairly high tenor and can do death growls. When I scream or sing now my voice just feels like one big mix. Your goal should always be to make everything your voice can do as natural and easy as possible!
As someone who has been doing the types of growls for going on 5 years I can say that this is a good tutorial and shines another way for people to do it who don’t understand the more conventional methods, great video Chris 👍
Legit question: how long it took for you to enjoy your own screams? Cuz i'm trying to do this shit for near 3 years now and i'm still hate it, feels like a person who doesnt has any idea of what is doing when i hear it back🤣🤣🤣 i keep waiting for this "oh shit, i got it!" momment , for that sudden *click* in my head but till now... not even close
@@hanzelvasconcelos7903well if you’re doing it right then straight up, you’re probably not gonna enjoy your own voice for a good while. More than likely you’re comparing yourself to other professional vocalists on professional tracks that have taken the best takes over multiple recordings. I struggle with this too, I always feel my screams are too low or too high pitched. The best piece of advice I can give is to try and stop comparing yourself to other vocals and experiment a lot with your voice by itself and find what sounds cool to you and what works well. You’re more than likely not gonna sound like vocalist xyz which is okay! It’s very important to just be you when you’re doing vocals
@@Reds_not_dead Best advice, never compare yourself to other vocalists, well said.
Everyone of us has got a totally different voice, technique, etc. I lost a LOT of time trying to sound like my fav vocalists until i learned that we are all different. For example the cookie monster vocals dont affect me in any way, but i see everyone saying that this is incorrect, and whatever, i think most death metal vocalists were self taught as well and they learned the hard way.
7:55 I clicked a random moment in the video and this is the first thing I heard, 10/10
Side effect: You are very entertaining while doing your thing. This helps a lot to approach it. Keep up the way you do it. 👍
After years of listening to Chris's vocal lessons i have grown very much as a vocalist at first I could never sing higher than the 4th octave now I can sing up to A5 easily and I can now do these aggressive and singing vocal fry false chord with ease that's why I owe my thanks to you Chris and when ever I go sing anywhere I always remember you first and all your lessons soo keep up the good work
I'll be at work when this is live but can't wait to watch it afterwards
My 3yo who regularly does that little polite throat clearing noise just for fun, has had a great time practising Bummhoooooollleee with me 🤣🤘🏻
Love it!!
I didn’t know my voice can do something like that! I was practicing in my own way, but when I tried your exercises I felt and sounded different. That’s amazing! Now I know in which way I can practice❤
I’ve been doing vocals for about 2 years now, I’m wishing I had come across this video sooner, as I have done some damage to my voice. I will be incorporating some of these exercises, techniques, and awareness that you showed. I’ve already made improvements and am looking to make even more, thank you!
I watched this video a year ago and it was extremely helpful.. I'm a woman with a deeper voice and can now do gutterals!🎉 thank you so much!
Thank you so much for speaking to how things are supposed to feel - that is so much easier to relate to when you’re just working on this stuff alone in your home office and don’t have all the technical knowledge. I have a fair amount of experience with my own voice and knowing where my limits are, but pushing those safely has been a trepidation for me until now. It’s so easy to fall into a physical workout mindset of working the muscles until they’re sore being a good thing and building up, when that is very much not the case for your vocal tools (except maybe your diaphragm…). Again, thank you for making all of this so accessible.
Wow man. Did not expect this from you. Not that you couldnt but I didnt think you would have even played around with this stuff a lot. You continue to impress me all the time!
I start practicing singing this year, and all your videos are helping, so hype to see this one!!
Thank you so much
The "Woof" method deeply disturbed my dog. But I learned so much! The cough method really struck a chord.
I still can't growl, but I definitely understand a lot of this much more than when I began, since I know more of the anatomy. It definitely helps for understanding of these videos
Duuude I've been trynna learn how to grow and scream but dude you're the only one that taught me this well , thank you for the vid!
im 19, been doing vocals self trained for a few years, finally getting into growling and this has been very helpful, thank you so much, chris
I honestly wasn't expecting your growls to be good, but knew you would have great insight. I was pleasantly surprised. Great video as always.
I will say I've been doing vocals for 9 years. I still love watching tutorials and really experimenting how different my voice is and combining certain techniques :)
So great to hear your approach to the vocal break at the lower pitches. I learned to do this myself but I still had concerns about my long term vocal health. I took away a lot of tips here on how to better walk the line between being too bold with my practice and not being bold enough
I started growling properly after watching this video tanks a lot dude you're a savior 🌹💙
These advices are incredibly useful and it's fantastic to have somebody qualified actually teach it with proper exercises. I'm going to do this as I have a full album to record vocals for and I tend to get sore quite quickly.
Thanks a lot Chris !
You're so welcome!
Next level 💯👏 thank you
I've done extreme metal vocals for about 30 years and you've got some great tips here. Back when I started it was trial and error with lots of painful mistakes that taught me.
Laugh if you want but I was just attacked by a demon and I was searching for the sound I heard. You nailed it! That low growl. They're very real!
Great introduction to the low growl, I can tell you know precisely what you are doing. I did this work with a few tips on my own many years ago, now. It is just amazing the kind of sounds I can make. And when you are diligent about practicing, you can just slip in and out of the growl to clean, from chest to head voice, or vice versa, or anyway you want. 😊
Man I love this guy, best vocal teacher ever
Been looking into this after I finished recording my whole album with no technique and am already suffering. You have no idea how I appreciate this, most videos I feel like don’t click and i fw the fact I understood this. Seeing some improvement so thanks
I only use 1 of those 3. I don't sigh & I don't fry. I basically only "throat clear" with a lot of compression.
I have to test integrating the other 2 for different results.
Love this topic.
Thanks for watching!
You are awesome Chris. Thanks for what you do. Can’t wait to check this out
Thank you sir for trying to work this out so well.
I can already do growls just fine but you did it Chris, I am excited to say I just bought your course. This video reminded me of how much fun I had doing those stupid noises. I remember sqealling like a pig or barking as a dog as well and then somehow turning it into growl, haha.
A week ago I've been aggressively singing for 3 hours a day and on top of that I've worked quite a lot, which means I've been talking whole day. Turns out the next day I could still speak but my voice sounded trashed, I couldn't really sing high cleanly. I might have done a bit of damage and it scared me, now I feel like I am back in full force but it made me to reconsider my approach.
I was approaching my screams from a growl standpoint and maybe just pushing it higher wasn't the best idea as I found the transition from clean to scream impossible this way. I don't know why, it didn't really feel right but I kept doing it. On top of that I was trying to figure out more the scream singing which might have been more than my voice could handle at the same time. Weirdly enough, while my voice was trashed I could still sing in chest voice and growl fine, everything high was problematic.
Awesome Rudolf! Welcome to the FUN! (well more of it anyway) Happy to get to work with you more closely! Thanks for a bit of backstory as well!
The "bummo" thing is hilarious and genius at the same time.
I’ve learned nearly everything I know about singing from Chris, I love heavy music and have tried to find videos to help me learn low growls, wasn’t until I saw this that it started to click. Awesome stuff!
@Chris Liepe bro. i love you. such good tips. i am a bloody beginner. just did some pretty well black metal screams here and then for like 2 years. but obviously wrong. cuz my throat was hurt. so i immediately stopped and only did it occasiaonally. always wanted to growl. now i am capable of okay-ish growling from not capable of doing any sort of growl. and that just only after 2 days practice. plus i know now how to check, if i hurt myself again or can keep going with the "squeeky check". golden tips jebat. i thank you for that big time
As a complete novice this is the best video I have seen describing and showing the feeling/sound I should be looking for
Your knowledge is amazing
I've been doing this for months, it's hilarious, but it actually works, I love this
This is helping me get my voice back 6 months after covid!
All in good fun. I love your video.
Was working on my low growls for few months when I started getting weird tickling and coughing sensations.
Here, tackled in just a few minutes so thanks a lot.
As always, life saving tips Chris,
Cheers!
✋I AM THE GREAT CORNHOLIO! I NEED TP FOR MY ✋
🤘BUMM-OOOOOOOGH!!🤘
Seriously though, this is *brilliant*! Thanks so much Chris for your sharing the wisdom you gain in your constant exploration and growth of the vocal instrument!
First "tutorial" that really explained to me easily how to do this kind of shit :) awesome. Thanks, Chris, for your work. If You are at extreme vocal techniques lately, maybe you could thake a closer look at Napalm Death's Mark Greenway? His vocal is classy to entire genre, and I feel like lately (on recent albums) he adds more great colors to his palette. Definitely would watch that with flush :)))
Cheers mate!
Lettts gooooo I did it!! Thank you so much! I have a lower voice so I can’t do the Micky mouse high but I did as hi as I can go and not as low as I can go but in the middle. At the beginning my throat hurt a little and it was low so I started in the middle and it worked ! I did it and I kept doing it and I got to do vowels and started talking doing it! Thank you for making this video I really appreciate and enjoyed it!
Rock on 🤘 🎸😎
Bro.
This is what I've been looking for.
Thank you so much.
Let's get the breee started
I think it would be neat to see you do a vocal analysis of Randy Blythe from Lamb of God, his technique seems to have changed over the years but it usually sounds like that he’s doing the “compression fry” in a mid/lower register to the point where that distortion is able to completely mask out his actual voice, instead of using more airflow like what’s required typical low growls. It’s hard to do but sounds so metal.
Finally found a good video to practice with! (No matter how ridiculous I might sound or look) now I can finally identify if I'm hurting my voice or not, which was the primary reason I kept starting and stopping practicing over the past 2 years. Probably gonna binge your channel today lol
Always amazing, you changed my drive and screams forever, thanx man!!!
Chris, you're hands down the best vocal teacher on youtube. i've been struggling with doing screams and growls for half a year, and you're the first person who taught me how to do it without doing the "tired sighs" and other unclear stuff. Thank you!
Video tutorials about screaming techniques are usually more confusing than video tutorials about solving a Rubik’s cube, but this one was actually very informative, helpful, and educational rather than confusing me into another reality.
haha... that's great to hear! Glad it was actually helpful!
Vamo' sound is like Mario becoming Bowser 🫣
I decided to include this tools into my vocals toolbox, and this tutorial is a great way to start. Thank you! 💪🏻
the first time I heard that the way you shape your mouth helps with singing was M Shadows in an interview and I think it's the most helpful tip I've gotten
“bummm-oooh!” probably one of the first words made by early humans. Metal has been around far longer than its given credit 😎😂
Head skincare tips?
Don't use shampoo, and do use daily moisturizer
i swear i went into this only knowing how to fry scream watch this and i have the foundation to scream deep thank you!
Such good tutorials and explanations of techniques, will keep watching more appreciate the honest impartial way you have about things
Chris you're the best
I learned many things from you
And now I'm going high levels
Your tutorial videos always make me laugh
Holy shit dude that legit worked for me... Always wondered how death metal bands made that low voice! You're awesome man!
Accidentally learned how to throat sing while watching this. Neat.
Seen this thx to youtube algorithm. Used to front for a local band for 2 years. Couldn't do any distortions at the start, eventually got an _almost_ correct technique, but there was still just a little bit missing, I was eventually hitting that tickly state, although I think I never actually hurt my cords more than what could heal over a week or two. I'd say I hurt them way more by things not related to music at all. And while I've seen multiple good videos on how to scream, this one is probably the missing piece for me. The "bum-mo" combo is genius :D
You are an absolute treasure. Thanks for being you Chris!
Thank you for clarifying that the warmth is okay when practicing these things. I wasn't getting any tickling or pain but the warmth was worrying me a bit lol
"Can you teach me how to do this teqnique?"
"To do black metal stuff, right?"
"Yeaaaaah!"
*Actually uses it to become Mongol like a boss*
Another great video. I've been a vocalist in bands for 20 years now, and while most people I know would say I have a great voice, it wasn't very consistent. Then, a few years ago I started watching your content and really started to understand why certain things I was doing worked, and what I was doing wrong. I became far more intentioned with my vocals, and just the last year or 2 I've done things with my voice I've never been able to achieve. And I'm 37! Chris, I just have to say: the way you describe what you want to feel when performing certain sounds, and how you display the process of learning ( no matter how goofy ) is truly inspiring.
The first exercise reminds me of get down with the sickness
Literally here learning to growl for fun. Lol I shall follow your teachings
i can do throat sing and now this
Brutal. Always thought growls are all from the Chest and had no fry engagement. The polite sighing really helps!
Growls can be developed both from false cord and fry... difference is in fry you usually have to build your way down from top and in false cord you've to build your way up from bottom
Awesome great music song so sound
It'd be awesome if you could do an analysis on Winston from Parkway Drive, he has such a great consistent scream.
tu canal es excelente , muchas gracias
Between the sounds and the body/facial expressions this is the most ridiculous explanation I've ever seen. And I'm guaranteed to remember it and be able to practice even after one viewing. So thanks for literally the best tutorial I've ever seen one this topic, as silly as I look in the car, I can't wait to keep practicing!
Will Ramos teaches after theory, our brother. 😊
This was so insightful and helpful thank you so much!
You’re very welcome!
I found this really helpful I am going to give these techniques my honest effort. Thank you!
What the f*K??? I was following every step and suddenyl BOOM, it sounds fucking awesome! Thank you so much Chris!
Yay, now i can do it too!
Never seen Chris do growls like this before.
Very helpful for me, Thanks a lot❤
I'm a 19 boy who tried a wrong wanna be scream for 4 years, my god
Pure foundation!
Keep it up man, great video, you really impressed me from your high level and keeping of all the little Details and pay attention to all and you don't leave the man who see the video with question marks😊
I have been trying to engage my false chord, and tried with the "clear your throat" tip but I always ended up with the tickly sensation. This video might just be exactly the tip I was looking for! Thanks!
Chris, thank you for this! I have been in a metal cover band “Metal cultures of various kinds”as the vocalist for close to 2 years. I tend to wear my voice out on my songs such as Bodies by drowning pool, Rob Zombie’s Superbeast, walk by Pantera among others. I realize from your video the reasoning is I’m using too much throat and too much diaphragm when these shown techniques not only protect that head voice and throat but even sound so much better once you tap into the combined tricks. Excellent job once again on explaining this!
This is what i need thank you sir
I've been trying to figure out what I was missing and why I couldn't do growls properly, and this video showed me exactly what was wrong. Once I found that resonance point in my chest and opened my throat, it's almost effortless to keep doing (air control is another issue, but I can figure that out later lol). 10/10 video, thank you so much!
I really had a great time watching (and learning!) this ! Bu-mmm-ooo will forever be a 'learnword' 👌👍
Amazing as always!!... btw if you could do an analysis of JJ Jullson from Kaleo that would be awesome, seeing an expert explaining how he can do those high raspy Brian J's notes with that voice would be so good
Excellent coach !
Wow i like your tutorial ...perfect...love from philippines
I've been wanting to learn this for a long time, thanks as always Chris. Can I please request some harder Kurt Cobain style vocals? Like School? Or You Know You're Right? Both of these songs I really feel show Kurt's vocal flip technique. If you sing and use this flip it makes it easier to navigate around with different notes but also use this grit and growls you use in your videos. 🤘
