I was at their concert, it was my first concert, the sound is exactly the same as on the recording. Moreover, he often just growls without a microphone and it is still audible, he has an incredibly strong voice
Yeah he is insane live!!!
Dude's projection is amazing! Out of this world
Epic!
on the live version of this song at Ikarceration tour he had the crowd go quiet and he projected loud enough you could hear him clearly at the back of the stadium
@@PeterBarberNow you have to find the video where Ronnie pulls Alex Terrible on stage to do the breakdown in Watch the World Burn. Transformed that shit completely.
He has a live vocal track of this song & it’s insane!!!!
I agree, it`s crazy!
I need to check that out
@@PeterBarber Do a review on that ,one take live vocals please. it blew me away.
@@PeterBarber did you cheked that? ) What is your oppinion about his live range of voice?
@@PeterBarberdid you watch the one take?
"Does a deathcore ballad exist?"
Sir, I am please to introduce you to "Pain Remains 1; Dancing Like Flames" from Lorna Shore.
I am VERY interested to see your reaction to that masterpiece. (yes, i feel that word is overused but I personally feel it is spot on for that song)
Should really do the whole trilogy for effect. It's long, but it's really a whole song put together, and each part hits hard in different ways.
Absolutely! I cry just about every time.
There is a video floating around of all 3 stitched together, music video with lyrics in the video. That's the best experience if you can find it!
I was about to metion this one!
@@Carnage0708my favorite version
The alligator growl is one of the sickest noises I have ever heard out of a human! Alex is awesome! ;)
he's a beast!
@@PeterBarber He is, in a good way! ;)
@PeterBarber one of the voice coaches who analyzed this thought maybe that growl used his uvula as well as the folds to make this sound this way. He's just a demon straight from the gates of hell
If you want a great non post produced song by him, he does a live vocal playthrough of this same song. Its just him, sitting at his computer desk with a mic. He does have music for it, but theres no doubling, delay or reverb on it his vocals. Its absolutely insane. And you can tell hes actually singing in it!! Also, hoping your gonna do a Dimash reaction with your soprano friend!!
Exactly what I was going to say 😅
Was just gonna suggest this :P he could either go with this or Bonebreaker Live in Moscow
Actually, Alex used ONLY reverb on the one-take. You can hear it during his warm-up where he gargles room-temp water. He's on record that the reverb and the delay (on the recording) are just to make the sound a little wider, and the pan they put on his gutturals is so the guitar and drums aren't stepping on his vocals. He's very smart and knows a good bit about how they do stuff.
SO COOL
I saw Alex live, he has so much power that in the shows he tells people to be quiet and then he screams into the room without a microphone and you can still hear him at 50 meters lol
10:50 The guy from Lorna Shore, Will Ramos, did a reaction and analysis of this song on his channel (The Will Ramos) that I'd highly recommend you check out if you wanna learn how Alex does this stuff. He explained that the technique used in this part is kinda like rolling your Rs, while also doing the growl stuff. Of course, he does a much better job of explaining, but that's the gist of it.
Wills reaction was awesome. Kardavox Academy has a lot of good reactions/breakdowns
Yeah, he needs to check out @TheWillRamos and @LornaShore. Also check out @TheCharismaticVoice taking Will to Utah Center of Vocology to check out what his vocal cords do with a camera down his throat while doing harsh vocals.
Alex also later stated on Kardavox (I think) that it's a back-of-the-throat 'Russian' R that he's doing, and he relaxes the roll halfway into the growl so it goes 'down'. It's how you get that DIRTY chest guttural. I've been practicing to try and figure it out and gotten it ONCE, but it's VERY difficult if you can't do a roll easily (which I suck at).
Will is coming to my opera performance tomorrow night and I'll get to meet him after -- so excited and I'll check out his analysis!
That's awesome. Hope the performance goes well!
I admire your diplomacy & curiosity about the singer's technique.
It's fascinating!
Actually the double bass pedals have one per foot and when you press down on it only hits it one single time per kick pedal. He uses this heel toe rocker technique that he hits down with heel first and then goes for second hit with his toe.
He does a clean vocal performance of Cemetery Gates by Pantera. He has a You Tube channel with lots of live takes in a home studio.
Oh yeah, that one's awesome.
I really like the Bonebreaker live in Moscow vid. I think it feels more kinda organic when he's on stage
"I've never heard that sound come out of a human" basically explains modern deathcore
The chortle is actually just rolling the tongue while doing low scream/harsh vocal, the sound after is a transition to guttural scream. The way he does it is nuts, its very hard to do
Also, the low sounding pitch is usually done with overtones, the way you position the tongue and jaw are vital for a good demonic sounding guttural scream
@@gamedevbrownbus2871 intrestingly enough, you use the same posture as you would for an operatic tone. to get a tone similar to alex terrible, you just do a gutteral scream operaticly, plus moving your tongue back for the lowest notes.
If I'm remembering correctly, Alex said it's a 'Russian R', and he does it in the throat, which is the other way you can roll an 'r'. Just relaxes the roll and lets it ride down into his chest for the guttural. I'd say you're 90% right. Just got the position of the roll wrong. He said in a Tik Tok he got the idea from going to an alligator zoo. XD
He makes the Alligator growl while false-folding low while rolling an "R"
Their song Baba Yaga has a tad more clean lines. And it’s also the “bear wrestling” video!
The video where he got to 'play with a bear', yes. Turns out the bear was TERRIFIED of him, and he had to calm the poor thing down. 'Great guy Alex' despite him hating that chant. XD
Man, you need to hear some live stuff. Check out Bonebreaker live in Moscow, or his one take performance of Viking
he literally has a video of him doing vocal covers in his studio n this man’s growls and voice have no added effects it’s all him 🔥🔥
He has a cover of a russian song on his channel, with no screams. Just clean singing. He has a very powerful deep singing voice. Also very fun to watch you reacting. Very symphatetic.
Ya now it's time for you too react to "To The Hellfire" by Lorna Shore for some inhuman noises
Came here to say the same. The One Take Vocal Playthrough version.
*Big* screams. Glad you are getting into this! I hope our understanding will continue to grow for harsh vocals and other understudied vocal techs like subs in the future.
Omg there is something for you:
Check out Alex Terrible "Viking" ONE TAKE.
HE DOES IT AT HIS DESK
The power of his voice frightens and fascinates at the same time)It will help you wake up better than a cup of coffee in the morning)
That gator growl is his signature growl. There are videos comparing side by side a real gator and Alex Terrible and the only difference is: the human is doing it better lol.
This band sounds that awesome because their precise cohesiveness and most of all, for the instrumental arrangements don't overlap or outshine the vocals and vice versa.
Often the lyrics are in Russian and English in the same song.
If you want to see the Gator Man's one take vocal performance for Viking, there's a video on his channel. You won't be disappointed in the slightest.
One of the most anticipated moments at their concerts, is when Alex growls the breakdowns without a mic. Again, a ton of videos on YT shows that and it's absolutely amazing how that dude can be heard across the venue.
Glad you discovered these Russian chads. If I could recommend any of their songs, I'd say: all of them.
Side note. You'd be amazed by this: he's a self taught death core vocalist. It took him 12+ years to perfect his craft and I could say the intensive gym and boxing training also helped.
There’s a one take performance of him sitting at his computer doing this song. It’s unreal.
I'm not alone in saying the one-take might be even better, too.
This is crazy!! I wonder how his speaking voice sounds. He's probably the nicest guy lol dang! 😮😮
Check out the singer's CZcams channel (@AlexTerrible)! He chats on there all the time.
First time watching and subbed! I've seen them live before and saw them when they played this song for the first time. Other than the layered vocals he nails it live, between the volume, enunciation, and cleanliness of his vocals. Nice reaction btw 🤘
Peter "I can hit really low notes"
Also Peter watching Alex "What in the actual fuck"
He has a live one-take that'll blow your goddamn mind
Great analysis Peter, really.
If you are interested in "trying to hear his voice", I recommend (belated because of the holidays):
ALEX TERRIBLE - Mariah Carey - All I Want for Christmas 🤣🤣🤣 Marry Christmas!!
Regards
YES!!!!! Can't wait to dive into this one!
As for the drums: "double bass" means that you either have two bass drums with one kick each or one drum with two kicks. One for each foot. So every hit this drummer does to the base is done with a move of his left or right foot. Might want to check out one of the ElEsteparioSiberiano drum videos if you're interested in how it works.
Baba Yaga is an awesome song and a really good example of his vocal range. There is actually a video on Alex's CZcams channel where it is just him at his desk. This is a sample of him just doing the gutterals czcams.com/video/b0ROx7kkyVM/video.htmlsi=wdwnU6PzxfQjGPjj
He does do covers on a web cam, you can find him without any effects here on YT :)
Love to hear you do more on this genre!! There’s so many vocal techniques you can benefit from ☺️😇
I was at the show they debuted this song In Tampa! Most of us are in the video. The crowd was so lit.😎👏🏼
Saw them live yesterday....it was fire!
Literally went to the show last night. Apr 26 in LA. Kublai Kahn was the opener it was a wild time 🤘
Edit: The alligator purr is a tongue trill paired with his gnarly gutteral. Also, Will Ramos of Lorna Shore hand a camera put up his nose to show all of the crazyness in the throat. Maybe a fun video to chop up.
You need to see the one vocal take of this, its amazing what he can do with his voice!
He does a one take playthrough of this song. You have to check it out!
Literally every single singer, coach, reacter, even metal singers have the same reaction to that alligator-rolling R sound he makes. *System overloads, no idea what he's doing*
Please react to his single take version of this. He sings it at his home streaming setup, like yours. He actually makes all those sounds, and it is remarkable. Talent is undeniable.
went to see them last year, ive been to over 120 metal shows, it was easily in the top 5
the best way I can describe the gutteral to you as a part time for fun vocalist, is that its like making a dog bark. if you breath out like you are trying to fog a window to clean it, add some constriction and distortion with the throat and tongue shapes to alter the pitches between low and mid low
Great reaction! Love seeing people's first experience with deathcore lol. While I'm not sure Alex has specifically talked about how he does those gator vocals at 10:50, general consensus of what I've seen and have personally speculated is that he is rolling his tongue similarly to rolling your r's while growling. You're also in luck with you wanting to hear his clean singing since he recently uploaded a vocal cover of Cemetery Gates by Pantera. Also as a deathcore fan I'm obliged to mention that you should check out Will Ramos from Lorna Shore, especially his one take vocal playthroughs that he uploads. Personally I would recommend either the Into The Earth or Of The Abyss playthroughs. Absolutely mind blowing!
In the Chandelier cover he sang the intro clean.
In the opening part when you asked specifically, there are definitely some layers for a bigger sound.
the sound touve never heard of before is called the gator growl and it is done by rolling your tongue while doing a false chord
part of that roar sound is coming from how he's opening up. a raised soft palette, the base of the tongue relaxed and lowered in the back of the mouth, and I think he's including part of the overtone series off the hard palette while somehow having the nasal passage open
As an avid deathcore listener I love slaughter to prevail actually last night I put on their music with my phone and fell asleep to it kinda like what people do with whitenoise and you mentioned a deathcore ballad go listen to the pain remains trilogy from Lorna Shore, Will Ramos is their vocalist he is insanely good
Bro, i appreciate this type of reactions where a professional can breakdown and talk about some stuff he competent in, not just smiling in a cam. Thanks for it, keep it on!
And for Alex's clean (at least not guttural) vocals, you can chek this video: ALEX TERRIBLE - KATYUSHA. Also, you can chek shorts with him recorded on a phone, without any enginering.
btw, you right, russian part of lyrics sounds really clear and understandable for native speakers
10:25 This technique is based on the technique of singing with unusual articulation in the pharynx (throat singing) or larynx, characteristic of the traditional music of the peoples of Siberia (shamans). Thank you for your professional, clear analysis of the song.
В основе этой техники лежит техника пения с необычной артикуляцией в глотке (горловое пение) или гортани, характерной для традиционной музыки народов Сибири (шаманов). Спасибо за профессиональный и четкий анализ песни.
Yesssssss please!!!! Get him in there and interview him brother!! New sub and I'm in lol 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼 Slaughter and Lorna are my favorite groups!!
I saw them his last November and they are the same live as on this video. Better because it’s live. And his vocals do sound the same it is unbelievable. You are right the drummers in this genre are the best to me and watching him play these drums live is equally as impressive as the vocals! Great reaction my dude. PS check out the one take performances (To the Hellfire or Of the Abyss) that Will Ramos of Lorna Shore does. If you think this blows your mind your in for it with those 😂.
Sick video!
Love watching the faces you made through this. 😂 not something I would normally listen to but hearing your analysis was interesting. Just sounds like weird screaming to me, cool to realize it’s not just screaming.
Fellow Peter here. Welcome to HELL Brother!
🔥🤘😈🤘🔥
Also...sounds Almost Exactly the same acoustically fyi
Happy to be here in hell with you all 🤘🏼
Wow. Just wow. Incredible. Pure depths of hell death metal awesomeness. Not familiar with this music myself but wow. Thanks for the analysis that you did do and hang in there Peter. Stay safe and stay awesome. 🙃✌️
Hello, thanks ❤👍👏👏👏 ух, куда занесло... 👍🔥🔥🔥
куда занесло, ахахах?
The drummer is not only using a double kick, he also is using a heel-toe technique that further increases the rate at which you can hit the base drum. It's a very difficult technique but super cool once you can do it well.
I've been to their live show its an insane experience !!
There is a video of Alex doing this song solo in a one take shot and it is mind blowing!
He does acoustic versions on his youtube channel just sitting in his house at his computer! Also their song Baba Yaga has a "cleaner" singing section I would check that one out its also the song he wrestles the bear in!
The roar is from pushing the growl through the nasal cavity with massive amounts of air
immortal disfigurment has a song called king he does a deep vocal so raw and rough i call it crocodile vocals, it looks almost his vocals tapping each other so hard and clean that is so weird never hear it before so strong like slaughter to prevail
I havent seen it but on the drou le the double bass is him using both legs on 2 pedals. Its pure technique.
Also I really suggest you check out the charismatic voice she got will Ramos to be scoped and was absolutely astonished and what he was doing with his vocal folds
@PeterBarber Part growling, part throat singing while having an already deep voice. I'm no where near as good as him, but I can do similar. Growling with an open vocal tract. There is a difference between a throat growl and a lung growl.
Also, he did a one take on camera, just him, he really does sound like that. There's also video of him not even needing a mic and still being heard. Very powerful.
Also, Type O Negative's vocalist is baritone/bass. You might want to check them out.
A lot of people can produce a deep guttural sound like that. The difference is the volume at which he does it. Thats incredibly difficult and takes a lot of training
He just did a cover of Pantera's "Cemetery Gates" on his personal channel, and you can hear the Lemmy from Motorhead qualities. Would definitely recommend!
Go to his personal channel (Alex Terrible) and listen to him sing Katyusha. He does clean singing entirely for that.
My favorite band so excited to see what you think
His whole channel he does lots of covers and originals and what not. Dude is all over the place. Hes definitely uniquely his. I really enjoy him.
I loved this reaction. As a metalhead, it's always super cool to see people outside of the metal scene react and give their takes on the stuff I listen to, and you being an opera singer made it super cool to listen to you trying to figure out how Alex does his insane lows.
I'll also suggest, as many others have, that you check out at least Pain Remains I by Lorna Shore, but the entire Pain Remains trilogy is amazing.
Also, on the topic of "how does he do that" or like, "what's going on in his throat," The Charismatic Voice has a video on her channel putting a camera down the throat of Will Ramos, another big name in the deathcore scene right now. Super cool video to see what's possibly happening with the false folds and stuff during these crazy harsh vocals.
If you want to hear him do gutturals or clean vocals, he does covers and some other stuff on his youtube channel Alex Terrible. Recommend to check it out (and yes, he sounds just as brutal without a mic)
Alex Terrible on the song "Doom slayer" he has a even better aligator growl. and the song is amazing, highly reccomended to check out.
There’s actually a few clips on youtube of alex doing growls directly into his camera that you can check out.
Love the reacrion mate! Check out his other one takes. Hes got one of this as the other 400 comments havw said, and also BFG division
@18.02 The 'roar' bit as you call it. Keep in mind that's a layered vocal, that's not a single take one so he would have layered a low growl with a higher sort of fry scream one and blended the two layers together in production to make that sound of vocal much thicker and daemon-like if you know what I mean. By the way as you mentioned that you wanted to listen to amore of a single-take version of his vocal just so that you can his the quality of his voice without effects and there is a video of Alex doing a One-Take vocal play through of this song on his CZcams channel. Look him up. Also, this song isn't sung entirely in Russian but part in Russian and part in English
The alligator growl thing he does is insane, one creator said he did this by rolling his R like they do with speaking spanish. This could explain what he is doing. But it could be wrong.
My and my daughter went it was amazing
As others have said, as far as a “deathcore ballad” the band Lorna Shore has a song that is in 3 parts called Pain Remains. The trilogy is imo a masterpiece, and if you had fun checking out Alex, you would love Lorna Shore’s vocalist Will Ramos as well. He has amazing control over his voice and growls as well. Someone else recommended that if you check out the Pain Remains Trilogy that you look for the video that has all 3 parts put into one video which also has subtitles at the bottom so you can understand what Will is saying, (I also recommend that version) Will also does one take performances on his on channel of his songs along with him covering Sleep Token. Alex has one take performances and covers too if you’re interested. I really enjoyed this video though, excellent job!
Elizabeth knows lots about harsh vocals! Do a video with her about it? ;D
He did a vocal one take to this song and they only production on his voice is a slight reverb. It’s on CZcams.
Советую посмотреть живые выступления, чтоб трезво оценить их по достоинству. Они лучшие❤
Женя Новиков - барабанщик от бога.
Саня - лучший в мире солист и человек - солнышко.
Три профессионала в группе❤
Not sure if anyone else pointed this out but those drums are all natural. It doesn't play twice for each hit he does with his feet. He is actually playing that fast himself
Alex is straight up not human but we love him like that
I grew up singing opera since I was four I started training, when I was sixteen I wanted to learn how to death core harsh vocals because there were like no females doing it in my town..there's actually way more in common than most would think, like the pressure to be prefect in every note. If alex hit a harsh wrong, you would notice. I like to think of it as inverted Opera, and you will often find a lot of death core metal vocalist have some background in opera 😂❤❤
Ben from shadow intent is probably my favorite vocalist in deathcore. the migrant is wild.
dude, he has a cover a cemetery gates by Pantera. It's pretty good and totally clean!!
He does that roar on his tic toc channel and his camera is close enough to see his mouth
His clean moments in the cover of O! Fortuna....
I think on instagram he posts a vid of how he does it. Growl while rolling r kinda thing with his tongue. He breaks it down. Like 20 sec vid. Alex is badass
The pieces you are missing are 1st rolling a r with false folds for the alligator sound and the roar is due to the form of the mouth and tongue position
Going into that alligator growl, he's rolling his growl, much like rolling an R with your tounge in some languages that's how he's making that sound
He has a one take of this exact song he did sitting in front of his computer. Highly recommended :]
His vocal one take is out there too. And it sounds just like this! The dude is crazy good
He explained the " Gattor " sound he make on a video (don't remember if it's on youtube or instagram)
but it's with the tongue. search " alex terrible gattor sound "
I've visited their's concert 6 days ago, it was cool expereince)
You said you wanted to hear him just doing raw vocals and no studio sound. Well he posted a video of him doing a one take vocal performance of this song in his room and you also said you wanted a video of him just singing with no grit. Well he also posted a video of him doing a cover of cemetery gates by Pantera where he signs like the whole song👍
He has a one take of this song on his channel just sitting at his desk. In that video, I think he only has delay and reverb on his mic. To your point of his clean singing, their song Baba Yaga has some clean singing in the chorus, and its very rock-tenor, surprisingly, because his speaking voice is pretty low.
I also wanted to point out that double kicks, in this style, do not hit twice per foot stroke. there are two pedals that control two beaters, so one foot controls one pedal, each foot stroke is one hit on the kick. So its even more impressive than you think lol. He uses a heel/toe technique that lets him get two hits consecutively on the same pedal, but he still has to hit the pedal twice to get two rapid hits.
Definitely watch the one-take video he recorded at home just sitting in front of his computer.
Alex is insane live. He's such a sweetheart, too 😅
