Avoiding The Hurt When Screaming

it was on her profile-page on the official AE-homepage somewhen, but I just checked, it isnt there anymore.

however I found it on one of the links on the hp:
"Every growler has its own technique, its kinda hard to describe. It feels a bit like gargling in the back of your throat while screaming at the same time. I worked out special breathing techniques with a vocal coach to improve my lung volume and not to get hoarse. I work constantly on pronunciation and articulation. A proper warm up before singing is necessary if you don't want to damage your voice! Humming and lip thrills are excellent warm ups…"

wouldnt smoking make you sound better? it lowers your voice so... but it makes you run out of breath easy i guess.


It does rasp your voice up pretty good which is a plus but man, does it ever kill stamina. You just can't project your voice with as much pressure if you are a smoker. Plus, being winded sucks balls when you are only on your third song.
