Xer0 is Edsel Dope from the band Dope. Dope opens for Static-X on every tour and Edsel is doing two vocal sets every night.
Hey man, I am trying to fill out the contact section of your website, but it keeps saying refresh page and try again. Tried on different devices. Any other way to make contact about lessons?
@@stevedendera I'm sorry to hear that! You can just email us directly at kardavox1010@gmail.com - thanks!
I'm in Australia and am having difficulty getting any of your albums on cd. Any idea how to source them? as I prefer hard copies of music.
Thanks for the love! 🤘🏻✖🤘🏻
🤘🏻
hell yeah! wayne would be proud to see it still going stronger than ever!
So ready for PRv2! Amazing work guys! ✊
You guys are doing Wayne proud! i know you know that already but ive missed you guys and im glad youre still kicking ass!
Best show I've seen!!!
It sounds modern because they aren’t using the same sawtooth leads from the 90s; they’ve updated their synths to match the times
That makes sense!
what us Sawtooth?

@@safeinsound666 he's talking about early synth samples and presumably is saying music libraries/production techniques have evolved over the past 25 years
Xero is supposedly Edsel Dope (of the band Dope). Machine was a huge album that influenced my music taste when I randomly bought the CD at Walmart back in high school.
RIP Wayne Static. Your band seems to be in good hands.
Yes he is!
Edsel confirmed it back in July. Still amazing how well he fits the band though.
was also really good friends with Wayne
Edsel’s stamina is admirable. 🤘
It's not supposedly, that's Edsl Dope
My cousin is the drummer for static. I wasn't to into their music growing up but my tastes have evolved since then. Seen them twice now in recent times. Love you Kenny!
@FreeArk3733 that is awesome.
THAT is some cool shit!!!! Just met them a few weeks ago after a show and it was such a cool deal to get a pic with them.
Wow. Firstly, what a mastery of the metal voice you have. I came across this because I work with Static-X. Ive now subscribed and will be watching a lot more of your content. Great stuff. It is SO rare to find educated people speaking substantively about the techniques of metal vocals. Makes me have a little hope. Thank you for taking the time to analyze this, and for bringing to light the talent and quality of Xer0. We’re just beginning to tell that story.
Xero IS Edsel Dope, vocalist of DOPE. And he is absolutely killing it!! He doesn't want to be referred to as the new front man, they just want to keep Wayne's legacy alive. I got to see them twice in the last couple years and am seeing them again in Feb, Edsel performs with DOPE first, chills for a couple sets then comes out with static.
Yeah, I saw them in NC a couple months ago with sevendust. He does a great job and its definitely an awesome show!
Double duty at a metal show is no easy feat, especially vocals
@@sparepartsracing2389 seeing them again with sevendust next Friday in AC!
@@launchpadplays no lie at all dude.
this is from their volume 1 regeneration album, a lot of the vocal tracks are, in fact, recordings from wayne static. you can clearly tell when dope (xero) does the vocals and when its recordings from wayne R.I.P. :( also, it's the bassist tony campos, who does the backing vocals!
@11:20, you got me there bro. I can see you're a genuine awesome man. Beautiful moment. The look on your face says it all!
This song rips! Saw them with powerman 5000 and dope(ironically, since xero is Edsel dope, I think) on the tour for Wisconsin Death Trip. Great song.
They were not Nu Metal, they are Evil Disco Music.
Their stage show now reflects this video to a T. It was such a blast to see them two weeks ago and to meet and greet them with a pic after the show!!!!! Me and about 40 people waited for over an hour to meet them and it was TOTALLY WORTH IT!!!!!!
I've heard this song so many times. One of the best songs the band ever released. It just goes so hard.
So glad I got to see Wayne live.
I wanna see Wes Borland and Xero in a room at the same time.
Xero is Edsl Dope
I haven't listened to them since high school either! I actually like industrial music more now than I ever had so this is pretty cool to hear.
Wow!!
I have honestly never heard about them before but have to dive into their discography after hearing this. 😍😍
Yo it's been 2 weeks how goes the dive
@@paddlerofrivers7413 it's been an amazing ride. Even my kids got in on it after a while. Such awesome riffs and beats. This is what I wanted nu-metal to sound like since the Judgement Night soundtrack set the bar so bloody high. 😄
So cool to see a fellow dad incorporate their family into their work in such a sweet way. Rock on Mark! 🤘 As a fellow father and long time follower and fellow metalhead, always show your kids that you work for them but give them your time to be their father. 🤘🤘
I saw them live in Denver last year and man, one of the most fun shows I’ve ever been to. Zero pays such a high honor to Wayne in his performance
Man that took me back to my highschool days. Jamming out to their song "this is not" every morning as part of my routine.
Love that you did my favorite band from back in the day! Just an FYI, the album version is almost 2 minutes longer with a weird/catchy/clean-ish vocal bridge. Keep doing your thing, man!
This song really took me back to high school, incredibly well done and I am sure Wayne would have approved.
I love that it still sounds so much like Static-X!
Great reaction Sir, the name of the bassist who does the backing vocals is Tony Campos, being there since day one and the sole reason i play the Bass and do vocals. Greetings from Germany btw. and keep up the great work sir ^^
Life long Static X fan here. The new singer is doing an amazing job. Rip Wayne
Definitely!
I dunno if anyone else mentioned it but the vocals on the official CD and music videos were all Wayne. They "found" projects he had been working on and utilized them for the newest two CDs. Xer0 sings them live.
It's some of waynes vocals and some of edsels. They needed some filler to make the songs complete
This song is one of the few that didn't have Wayne's vocals on it. On the first album this is the only track Edsel did all the vocals on.
@@leocal1979xero also did all the vocals on my destruction and accelerate, those 2 songs along with this song are the 3 songs that wayne had no part of, all banger songs of course
Man the way your eyes lit up when your son walked in let me know im definitely in the right place.
I never gave Static-X much attention, but after seeing them live about a week ago, I’m a full blown fan. They put on one hell of a live show.
11:17 oh man i wish i was that happy...congrats bro.
Seeing static-X in Toronto this February so excited and glad you did this video!!!! ❤❤❤
I was screaming a static x song in the pit Thursday night. And I don't go to many shows or scream that hard in my car, let alone while running circles. Omg. Cute son. And I had to get out when the song ended and catch my breath. Mad respect to the vocalists.. the bassist songs too.
Lets go! I've been a Static x fan for decades now and this new/old song blew me away dude.
Your family popping in was the most wholesome thing ever.
honestly reminds me of slightly more dancey version of 2004 era In Flames. Love the new Static-X
i literally only clicked on this because i was looking for a nostalgic review of otsego undead, imagine my surprise when i hear that static x is still playing, released a new song, and a KILLER one at that!
Outstanding song!
This is part of "Project Regeneration".
Project Regeneration Vol 2 is a collection of 13 brand-new Static-X songs which contain the final vocal performances & musical compositions of founding vocalist Wayne Static, along with the original Wisconsin Death Trip lineup featuring Tony Campos (bass), Koichi Fukuda (guitars) and Ken Jay (drums). The new album was produced by the band’s current vocalist/guitarist Xer0 and mixed/mastered by long-time collaborator Ulrich Wild and is the 2nd installment of the 2-part release.
Zero is the lead singer from Dope. He was close friends with Wayne.
Oh man, as a father it was so cute seeing your little guy run into your studio. ha ha ha That was amazing! LOL
Thank you for all your teachings I've joined the band Abaddon's End in the last year. And i scream one liners and such. Your teachings have really helped! I love the new static x sound. But I think the best part of the video, was clearly seeing how happy your family makes you! With a family of my own shit hits you. Any ways thank you for your teachings. 😊
Xero is Edsel Dope from Dope.
I know this has been assumed for a while, but I don't think it was ever 100% confirmed? Im asking as I don't know.
And I think the band has denied that's it's Edsel?
@jonathanolson1185 of course they denied it. They want Xero to remain anonymous. But Xero and Edsel literally have the same voice and same lanky bodily proportions.
@@Nyarlathotep999 They denied it at first but then eventually admitted it saying that he and the band felt Xer0 should be a separate entity from Dope. That's why he still wears the mask and goes by Xero instead of just going by his name.
They actually cut out the middle part / breakdown thingy from the official video, so the actual song is longer than this. Love the breakdown, found your channel from watching Static-X videos so the algo brought me here! Cheers!
I know zero about proper metal singing. But when trying to sing along to this at home, i flexed a muscle in my throat that i never knew existed. 😅
How could anyone dislike this absolute gem?
Rest in Power Wayne! Also nice to see your family!
Xero is Edsel, also part of the vocals is dez from coal chamber
Ive seen Static-X in Detroit last year and going to see them again in Cleveland in about a month, been a huge fan since they got their breakthrough in the late 90s early 00s. Cant wait to see them again!
I really dig the baby swing in the background. Propably Mark's happy place
Wayne can never be replaced as the lead singer of Static-x but edsel dope is killing it
Static-X was always a not-so-guilty guilty pleasure for me ever since a Spoony Experiment video randomly referenced them; Wayne Static was obviously the main draw, but the rest of the band I enjoyed a lot and I found Xero to be a solid replacement for Wayne, helped by the fact that they made their last album basically an entire homage to Wayne in many ways. They're pretty underrated, honestly, some of the better stuff to come out of that era and that genre.
Fun facts :
2:02 to 2:15 is sung by Dez Fafara, close friend of Wayne and the singer for Coal Chamber, on the album version.
Xero is Edsel Dope, another close friend of Wayne and the singer for the band Dope, another late 90's early 2000's nu-metal band and is why they tour together.
Edsel sings lead vocals for both bands every night.
Really?? I didn’t know that, but makes sense why I love it lol. I used to listen to Devildriver in hs. The fury of our maker’s hand was one of my fav albums.
I started doing frye vocals back in the 1980s. I was trying to make dinosaur noises. I got good at it. I was the Troll in our 5th grade Billy Goats Gruff puppet show. I started throat singing in the 1990s. I tend to blend them naturally. My voice is deep. Has been forever. Like low B on a bass guitar. I feel my whole core vibrate. I make didgeridoo noises by using my nasal cavities. Robotic voices and alien sounds too.
gotta love the wholesome family moment. lol
You can not deny that kid being yours at all 😂 Crazy to see him so big already!
Edsel Dope, vocalist for Dope, has confirmed he is the one performing as "Xero" for Static-X
Good to see Edsel still kickin around
That throat singing technique is my go to
Tony Campos is the bass player doing all the singing (also of soulfly and ministry among other bands) he's the man
Aww i loovvedd seeing your family, they're beautiful and cute 😍
Great couch
Had no idea the new singer was the dude from dope. So cool to see him still at it.
From what the band has said, it's a mix of original vocals recorded by Wayne with additional vocals by Xero. The backing vocals are by the bassist. At some point they will run out of Wayne's recorded vocals and have to create all original vocals or quit releasing new music.
That's what I like about people, is sincerity. Family is the best thing in life. God bless you and your family. We Russians love our families too. And we want peace. Metal culture, rock culture, we appreciate it very much. You're a cool dude, I don't want to fight with people like that, we're on the same page. Keep doing this cool content and good luck with everything.
Respect just came across the chanel
Static-X for life.
I loved Wisconsin Death trip. Great album. Loved hearing them in one of the Duke Nukem games on Playstation lol.
Xero is actually Edsel Dope, singer/songwriter of the nu-metal band Dope. Dope and Static-X used to tour together all the time, and Edsel has been a friend of the band ever since.
This is my first time hearing the current static x line up after Wayne passed. I'll be honest I really love how the new singer intertwines his own voice without straying too far from the original. Killed it
Yeah, that's a good point!
@@KardavoxAcademy thank you lol.
I haven't listened to this newer incarnation of them yet but watching this it does give me machine album vibes which is a pretty good album it doesn't exactly feel like static but i think i can enjoy them as it's own thing 🤘
Find me a shovel!!! 🤘🤘🤘
Family first brother! Lol. Cute kiddo my guy!
You should do Terminator Oscillator next!
Xero just has to be Edsel Dope. Dope has been on the last few Static-X tours… coincidence? I think not. Edsel pulling double duty.
He is. It's how he gets his bandmates in Dope paid. They admit they don't have a very social media friendly name, so they can't really sell a lot of Merch. So, Edsel makes sure Dope is the opening act on tour to get them paid.
How did I miss this video from you? RIP Wayne.
I seen static-x (7x's)... I saw static-x last show at the gathering of the juggalos (2014)..at 2am In the morning 🌅🌅🌅🌅🌅🌅🌅🌅.. whoop -whoop
If you’re enjoying Xeros voice then check out Dope. Same guy just unrestricted to a specific sound because, well, static x has a specific sound.
Static-x takes me back to those baggy jeans, wallet chain, oversized shirts and getting into trouble as a teen 😂
Haha, exactly!
Edsel Dope (New Singer Xero)of the band Dope joined a few years back, was one of Wayne's (original singer who died)closest friends and is one of the closest ones to mimic Wayne's style. They have been trying to keep Edsel as the character of Xero a secret....but we all knew who it was in the beginning, due to his neck tattoo.
what i liked with Xer0 design is to kinda be like waynes old hair style with a robot look to it
This song is all Xero, if people read the song credits...Wayne isn't featured in this track
Hi Evan!!
When I first heard this song I thought of Devin Townsend!
I can hear that actually!
Static x just kicks ass
Just a brief Wholesome AF moment 😆
As you know by now, we’ve all heard Xer0 many many times before. Who has never heard Die MF die?
Would it be a cool video idea to go back and do an analysis of Wayne's vocals? Skinny Man and The Enemy are my favourites
Nice, didn't take a look at the new Static-X stuff but actually better than I expected! Still please take a look at Carnosus!
My thoughts exactly!
I miss my JNCOs 😭
I believe the back up vocals are from bassist tony kampos.
Static-X Nu Metal? I've heard them described as industrial, synth, and disco metal, but never nu metal. 😂 I understand the association though since I was listening to them at the same time as those bands in the 90s. I need to check out their new stuff because this song is awesome!
Dropping sharts a lot acadamy immediately caught me completely off guard while I was eating a burrito. I almost died
Hahaha, you're welcome!
Watch an old Push It video from when Wayne was still alive its incredible!
Xero is Edsel Dope from the band Dope
Time to fulfil yourself
Maybe someone can correct me on this but I believe Xero hasn't provided vocals on the Regeneration albums but performs them live. My understanding is that Wayne's final vocal performances are what's being used here. Maybe it's a combination? Whatever the case, I wanted to point this out.
I could swear that the newer Static X albums are still using Wayne Static's vocals from some material he recorded before he died. Xero/Edsel Dope is doing the vocals for live tracks (obviously)
Xero is Edsel Dope!!!
So from my understanding the vocals on the song are actually Wayne Static, these new songs they have been releasing are unreleased material he wrote and recorded, and live they are performed by Xero (Edsel Dope from Dope, unless they have someone new under the mask), people figured out it was Edsel because of a neck tattoo that he has that the original Xero mask didn't cover
Actually,though the majority of the album does have Wayne in it,this one is one of the (few?) songs that is all Xero.
That part I didn't know, interesting
@@MitchaK85this is correct
Quick question. Everyone says diaphragm, belly, poop muscles, but what about ribs? To me it feels like im using my ribs to expand/inhale and contract/exhale…is that safe or should i try more for the diaphragm/lower stomach?
Xero is Edsel Dope. They have been making badass music for a long time and are criminally underrated.
Zero looks f@cking awesome! 🤘😝
Also, you’re probably wearing your seatbelts wrong. 🤔
