      Idk how to say this but I only found this band a couple of weeks ago. To be exact actually ab a couple of months ago and I’d only spin birdcage which I loved but when I decided to dive deeper into their music and found wilt I was just amazed. That shit hit hard especially at the end with his range it hit like a truck. I felt everything he said in that song cause I went threw a horrible breakup and wilt portrayed exactly how I felt. Ever since then I knew who my idol was and it’s that crazy dude on the mic Lucas. His vocals inspire me to get into singing since I only play drums and guitar. I wanna be able to be like Lucas and just sing those high notes with that distorted voice he does so amazingly. I just wanna be able to get on stage and sing whatever I feel like now. Thanks Lucas. You’re a fucking madlad

      @StarMike41 3 года назад +5

      @@lunahateless5204 Sustaining distortion can be really hard, even for the best ones, mostly because when you're in a live set I could imagine it's pretty hard to 100% focus on your diaphgram, and that causes a bit of a looseness of the raspy sound. With that being said, he's definitely a talented vocalist on what he does. Beautiful person too.

      @@StarMike41 yessir, I do vocals in a metal band. All i do is sustain false chord (and occasionally fry) distortion. I know how hard it is and I know how to overcome it.

    People always wonder why some vocalists don't move around so much, I understand exactly why some vocalists can't really move around as much as others. To have a sound like that and do to certain techniques all your energy and energy consumption is being focused on just vocals. So jumping around sometimes has to be done at the cost of your vocals sounding different. I don't move around much when im performing only because im screaming and shouting and im so focused on tone, moving different muscles will change my tone. I love this guys vocals though. Such a phenomenal group in general. Im all about the performance but I want my live performances to be equal to if not greater than anything I record. I wanna be the band that gets people surprised and wanting to hear more.
