Vintersorg, Lazare, and other vocalists

How does one learn to perform 'grim' vocals? I haven't been able to find much information on it, and there's really no one to ask in this hippie town (not to put it down) -- Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA.

By trying

I also learned it in this way, but I'm still searching a band to perform

I've seen some kind of a guide, which was quite helpful somewhere on the web... i'll post it in here if i'll find it again

Do you have to learn to do grim vocals ???
My grim vocals sounds like Dani filth mixed with varg vikernes.
And that is without practice.

[TB666]

I don't know.
Haven't tried

That needs much practice I think

 

[Dantven]

drink honey, and if you have to ask, then you probably shouldn't worry about it

drinking a bottle of whisky sometimes helps too... well, it makes me sound better in my own opinion at the time at least...

I consider myself a pretty good grim vocalist (others have told me I sound like Pekka Kokko from Kalmah = /). Anyway, my secret is Gatorade. That stuff just sticks in your throat and gives you a really crisp, clean grim vocal sound. Try some of that, I promise it'll help.

Ahhh, yes, I'm sorry.
It's a sportsdrink available stateside. I'm sorry, I was unaware that it wasn't a global corporation. Ignore my last post.

growl from the stomach or else you fuck up your voice

 

[asphyXy]

How do you growl from your stomach? Everone always says that, but I don't know how to manipulate myself to use my stomach...

 

[skidzo]

I have a good idea for you every morning when you get up you have to growl into your pillow and soon you'll have killervoice!!!

 

[Jock La Crotch]

Is it normal to feel like your gonna puke after practicing grim vocals? Oh yeah, hippies usually have the best herbal remedies! :Smokin:

Whisky is a no-no...only bourbon..only bourbon.

Practice makes perfect

what you have to do is pretty much exhale pretty hard and sort of constrict your throat to give it a sort of growl to it. do this to get the throat constriction right, and pretty soon you'll be able to control the exhaling and be able to vary your range.

odd thought: chocolate gives you a pretty interesting voice. don't ask why.
