What's the lowest anyone has gotten growlwise?

[Mr. Nekrophetamine]

These hurt like a bitch. I can't say who I sound like when I try (and seem to fail) because I don't listen to enough of these bands, but if you can do them (and BW, you already have my praise damnit), cheers!

There's a fantastic thread on the Bloodbath forum about all of this, btw. Lots of samples too.

^Cool, I'll check it out, send me your growls.

Low vocals are easy to do, but a good crisp exhale that will make you shit your pants...that takes work.

And I have to disagree with Barnes voice being ungodly in totm, it just sounds like he is fucking tired after repeated listens; but he definitely has it's shining moments

I run out of air really fast. I dont know what im doing wrong.
I can hit a high King Diamond scream and hold it for 15/20+ seconds.
but I cant growl for more than 2 seconds. im stumped.

^I feel the same way in my dorm, I dont want the cops to come for a domestic disturbance when I'm just trying to record growls.

Pfft, my parents know what I'm doing when I do that. I usually just practice in the shower or when I'm driving though.

I have no idea how to growl properly but I'm 14 and I've got a James Earl Jones voice so I could probably growl really low if I learned. I run out of breath really fast when I sing or growl in my normal voice, its probably because my vocal cords are wider and it takes more air. I dunno.

I do know how to scream from my diaphragm properly (I think). I can do high pitched raspy screams that hurt sometimes and don't hurt others.

I have growled before but it hurt my throat like shit. I couldn't sing high at all for a while afterwards.

I gotta record me doing intelligible growls soon, that's the style of growling I'm going for when I start recording death metal again. For now, here's those open your mouth as wide as you can Glen Benton style of growling.

Where's a good site for hosting sound files?

You should check out Twilight Ophera's The End of Halcyon Age album. It's mostly melodic/somewhat symphonic black metal, but there's still a lot of growling, pretty damn low too.

I was wondering the same thing.

Growling hurt my singing voice. I dont know how Mikal from Opeth does it.

 

[~Derek~]

Here's some of my growls, one where I'm growling a Six Feet Under song and one where I'm doing a Cannibal Corpse song part.
