Learn how to use what a lot of singers avoid to create aggressive, pitch-free screaming! You won't hurt your voice when using this approach either. Be intense in the right way (not tense) and execute with and without singing!
Hands down the best teacher for singing (at least for me) on CZcams

I couldn't agree more! Chris is seemingly the only one that acknowledges the emotion of music and the nuances while still focusing on safety. A lot of vocal coaches are kind of a one-trick pony, singing every distorted note in the exact same aggressive style, from AIC to Slipknot. I like that Chris focuses on why singers sound the way they do and not just that they're singing a certain high note or something.
we should bow... to sensei
You are not the only one :'))
@@giannismusic2694 The one trick pony thing is very true. I also find a lot of these youtube vocal coaches aren't incredibly competent singers to begin with. I feel confident in saying most of the youtube vocal coaches out there parrot the same information, have a habit of saying a whole lot of nothing, and don't having the talent to back up their teaching.
Even vocalists I have a lot of respect for like Mary Zimmer have a hard time explaining stuff like physical responses (like resonance in your chest or whatever). I don't doubt she's a great coach in person or over skype, but Chris just has an incredible way of describing things in these videos. In every one of his examples I can replicate/feel exactly what he's describing. It's almost scary.
It took me many months to do it correctly
Trust me guys the more you practice the more you understand yourself especially if you do weird voices with different techniques
I've been doing stupid weird sounds until I unlocked my screaming but it really took me a time, It really made me feel disappointed every time I fail so don't give up
When you feel hurt just stop and drink a lot of water after every 25 mins so your vocal cords recover
Never back to practice until your vocal cords are fully recovered 👍🏻
Best of luck
This is truth!
@@chrisliepe correct me if I am wrong basically to do the Scream you try to use head voice and chest voice at the same time but without do the mix voice but at a higher volume than the one required for vocal fry. For example if you try to do the vocal fry you try to basically talk with chest and head voice at the same time but without mixing and this causes vocal break. So to do fry scream you try to blend chest voice and head voice but without doing mixed voice am I correct?
@@tbnbfm8089 yeah pretty much. you try and hone in on that sweet spot of the two registers enforced by your support
4:50 sounds like the THX opening in movies
It does omfg
Yes exactly, you know why? Because THX wanted to create a sound test for everybody by making a full frequency transition in their opening sequence.
You are a wizard. I've never in my life felt like I was meant to be somewhere, until I found you. Every lesson I watch I learn so much
That’s great to hear!!
Its good to know i can practice this quietly and actualy make progress.
My main issue in life with singing is that there is almost no time where i can be loud. Home is not typicaly an option because i live with sound sensitive people.
Been thinking of setting up a temp sound booth in my car with my laptop, mic, and some bed padding.
As soon as I get a job I'll buy your course.
First buy his course and then you'll find many jobs... as a singer!
I HIGHLY recommend it!!! In just the first couple of weeks I noticed drastic improvements! You really won't regret it (if you're willing to put the work in)
Yair Zaragoza get the free course initially, there’s plenty of good stuff in that
I wish life would be that generous with me and let me buy the course and then find a job as singer. Bills and family responsibilities don't wait for that 😅. Good thing is I have a job already. And the free lessons helped me a lot. Now it's time to start changing my current circumstances. 👍🎵🎶🎙🎹🎤🎤🎛🥁🎻
never knew the voice can only do so much before its done for the day even while doing everything correctly.
Soldier1287 me either till i read this
Seriously, I'm binge-watching your videos on distortion and screams and I'm probably gonna be doing the same with all your videos soon. It's quite rare that a vocal teacher explains stuff in a way that is as straightforward and easy to grasp as you do it. Really amazing and inspirational (since I'm a teacher as well). Also, love the fact that you don't shy away from sounding "silly" in order to get your point across, you show exactly how it needs to be done in order to get results and even imitate the learning process. so much respect for that.
Incredible as always. Very Nu-Metalist technique. Reminds me of Korn and, of course, Linkin Park, in that preview of you singing during the intro.
YES
Chris Liepe Ahá, fan spotted right here! :P
Litteraly the best explanation of how to sing like this I've heard yet. I've been trying to learn how for like 2 years, and instantly did it just now.
Yay!!!
Dude I love your scream. So visceral
I do not even sing. But amuses me to see how good you teach !!! Cheers Chris !!!
Interesting advice. My style of pitchless screaming is false cord screaming which uses the vestibular vocal folds to create a death metal growling sound.
I have a request; next time you do a video of this nature, could you PLEASE do Goku's Kamehameha scream?!?!?!
I second this.
He pretty much just did lol
Sean Schemmel doesn't screamt hose vocals the same way.
Being a singer in a Band can be very hard, when it comes to the point where u have to describe vocal techniques to the rest of the Band (if they aren’t singers themselves). Listening to your Videos is great, because it help’s me describing it to the rest of the band member’s, how complex your voice as an instrument can be.
Thx a lot!
Ps: and ofc I’m learning very much, bc of you and your channel as a whole.👌
You can do this in way lower "pitches" for a more metalcore type sound
architects approved
I was following instructions for fried screaming and somehow ended up doing exactly this on my own. I was worried because it sounded sooo loud, and fried screaming isn't really loud, and couldn't do it without huge deals of compression and tension in my body. This is very helpful since I can practice the positioning without huge amounts of energy and noise!
Can we all take a second to appreciate how flawless his intro for his videos are?
You’re such a good vocal coach. Never has anyone explained it better. I should have started this a long time ago!
Thanks!
This literally taught me how to fry scream False chord came more natural to me know I am learning how to do both. I am mainly a singer I am a bit of a natural at it as a lot of my family members can sing I also play guitar to accompany my singing nothing like playing badass riffage while singing on top of it anyway thanks Chris Leipe for your help maybe I will sign up for one of your courses some day because learning on your own can be a bit tricky thanks Chris your the like one of the best vocal coaches I have ran into on here period.
Thank you sooooo much.
I wanted to add some screaming techniques to my repertoire to be more versatile, but there are so many videos out there describing something that is too abstract to understand. Your tipps actually made me find the right spots in less than 20 minutes. Wow.
Of course I'd have to really develop it now, but that is such a great success when you at least finally know what you are looking for. As soon as you have that idea where to go, it's so much more fun to practice.
I immediately subscribed. Seriously, this guy has a great voice, is well focused and is also a very talented trainer/teacher. A great combination.
Just jumping on here to comment about how the thumbnail looks like he’s eating the S.
Thank you I’m sure the video was great now goodbye.
UPDATE: I am now, 4 months later, actually watching the video. Great video, really helpful info!
Please cover "Bodies" ! I would love to hear you do that song!
Omg yes
Hit my first fry after watching this video. Great teacher!
That’s so cool!!
I love how in 6:14 he looks up like he was looking for this vocal fry „heeey, where is it, it was supposed to be here already”.
Love your videos!
Is this what they call the 'fry scream'?
Wonder how the 'false chord' scream is done and how it is different to this.
Amazing content as always Chris. You're fabulous
More on False Cord later :) Yes, this is a fry scream!
@@chrisliepe false chord? :O
i got the basic sound down but cant really change it / grow it too much so im eagerly awaiting that video *.*
Yes please, false chord and what is the difference.
@@chrisliepe oh wow these videos are super new. I was wondering how I hadn't seen them before when searching for dist/scream tutorials. Excited for your false chord video.
False chord is done by having your vocal folds held in an open position while using the tissues above the vocal folds to produce the distortion sound. The same breathing fundamentals still apply to this technique. Focus on placing the distortion around your soft pallet, imagining the sound being produced around your hard pallet can help, to avoid damaging your vocal folds while attempting this technique.
The most common ways of finding your false chord sound is either by doing an overly exaggerated sigh, or mimicking the barking of a large dog. While doing that try to take notice of where the distortion is coming from. It should be above the vocal folds as mentioned above. Once you get the basic short burst of the sound down, work on extending it out longer. That should get you your basic mid scream and from there you can do tongue and mouth manipulations to change the sound.
The main difference between fry screaming and false chord is that fry screams is vocal folds held closed and false chord is held open. Fry screams also have a "smoother" sound to them and false chord tend to sound more "clicky".
Hope this post helps you.
Thanks to you I started to get the point about distortion, fry etc. Before, I just used to ruin my voice every show and studio session.
You and kardavox academy are the best vocal coaches on CZcams for harsh vocals
Thank you! Kardavox is great too!!
I just keep on learning with these tutorials every one is helping me develop different styles and ways my voice works - awesome Chris thank you.
I really like how you teach about screaming. For the first time I FINALLY understand what to do! 😍
I would really love to see a video about Growling. I wanna be able to do that with a really deep and intense sound like the singer from Jinjer. ☺️
The singer from jinjer actually uses this same type of scream except she does it in a lower tone. Not many people, especially women, can get their fry screams that low which is why she’s such a unique vocalist. If you want an easier way to sound similar to that then you should search how to false chord scream. It’s much easier to do lows like that.
@@mjchronic2346 false cord
@@copsarebastards thanks for the spell check I don't have that on my phone
@@mjchronic2346 wasn't any use obviously. You have vocal cords, not vocal chords.
@@copsarebastards Neither you nor any man ever has or will see what the inside of my throat looks like
Sinceramente, le tue lezioni Chris sono tra le migliori e le più complete che ho trovato in giro per internet. Chiare, precise.... In questa lezione io personalmente mi sento "paurosa" nel tentare certi approcci. Ho paura di rovinare le corde vocali non avendo capito ancora il meccanismo per il vocal fry.. temo non lo capirò mai :(
I don’t think it was a coincidence that I’ve pulled my first fry screams one week after watching your videos on screaming after trying for half a year
Finally I can do something more than just a sound of this creepy girl from "the grudge" movie :D. I am really grateful man, can't wait for your next video
Awesome video! Soon after I started singing I realized that in my normal speaking voice there is quite a bit of fry present. I was practicing using it all the time without knowing it. I've been trying to get into doing some heavier covers, like Disturbed for example, and this video is very helpful. I was having some issues going back and forth from clean to distorted vocals but its getting a little easier. I tried Down With The Sickness and felt like I just did like 300 situps, never realized how much breath support a song like that entailed.
man you deserve more subscribers 🤯
This is a godsend Chris. I'm in a living situation where I have precious little opportunity to practice loud, so this is like you read my mind! Thanks!
Your lessons are so fun. Keep it up
Thank you! :)
dude thank you so much! eventually i will learn how to do other screams, but this will be the only one that's good for now... You seriously need more subs
Once again Chris, thanks! My gratitude towards you keeps growing and growing. Every time I leave a comment on some problem I'm facing or some artist I'd like covered, you seem to make a video about that specific topic. For that I really appreciate you. The very nature of being heard draws me to you videos every time just like the amount of knowledge you show! Since you really put the time you have into your viewers and one of your latest videos was about what we could learn about a female artist, perhaps you could take a look at Gwen Stefani. Her earlier albums with No Doubt like the Beacon Street collection portrays a really talented singer. This includes songs like Open the Gate, Snakes, Greener Pastures and Squeal. Songs that are technically really difficult and mostly a very high female register but full of pretty aspects like tone and breath control. Whatever your next video will be I fully support you!
Sincerely,
A very loyal follower.
I just found out bout this channel, I’m bout to practice everything, been trying to sing Man in the box. Thanks for all the info Chris!
I love this teacher man.
Thank you so much for those vids. You get straigt to the point, summarizing everything perfectly. Very helpful 🖤
Chris Liepe.... ☝ The man for a singing movie. - what role -> each one 👊😅
Super informative, well explained, no bs, straight to the point - loving it!
Having the vocal skills is one thing but having an ability to teach those is a whole another story - you seem to have mastered both though! Chapeau bas!
Thought I’d get to bed at a decent time tonight, but here I am 3 videos in.
Cool cool cool cool cool cool cool
True Jedi in vocal teaching
Been waiting for this! I’m 36 seconds in and I already know it’s great
Oh man! So good. Watched the tiny clip at 9:04 repeatedly. Like mixing Jeff Buckley with Chris Cornell. I love how you break this down and dispel the myths. I sang in a metal band for years and that was alll Lamb of God style grit so maybe I have a small advantage but I really would love to be able to achieve this level of control over my voice in the coming year. Just subscribed. Thanks Chris
AMAIZING VIDEO!! should be great if you can do a braking vocal of Corey taylor!!!
After yesterday's livestream I finally got how my break works! Thanks! Gonna go and piss off my neighbours now!
I am not sure if i'm doing it but after 6months i'm definetely close. Thanks mate
Thanks for your hard work man!
Really cool video. Do the practice, and you will be amazed at what you can do! I can, and do, high fry screams along with Slipknot, Slayer, Dreaming Dead, Jinjer, whomever I wish to, in fact! 😉 Yes, it is so much fun. I do get funny looks from people, because I practice while I am more or less power walking. Listen to Chris, and use good technique, and you will get there.
I've improved a lot with your free course and CZcams videos. I practice while driving. Thanks Chris!
Hey Chris Liepe! I don't know what you're tagging this video with, but you should include voice acting tags as well if you're not already! I feel like this would be really useful for voice actors who are trying to get more powerful and emotional screams!
Great idea!
I’ve always used false chord and it never hurt but would occasionally be a little irritating. I was never able to figure out fry screams because when I first started learning 10 years ago all of the tutorials were just other emo kids basically giving a shitty explanation of how they do it that basically consisted of “sigh til you get a gritty sound then push with your diaphragm” and that was it but this video actually made me understand fry screams and I’ve been successful doing them. All that’s left now is steady practice to strengthen them and get some power behind them. Thanks for doing such a good tutorial my guy
Not even the slightest bit of irritation
God bless you Chris you've made my dreams of screams look attainable
Ive watched all of your fry scream/distortion/aggressive singing videos and i can get the fry scream to not hurt. I dont know what im doing wrong 😭 i just want to scream to all my favorite songs
Dude you have helped me sooo much !!!!
I’m glad, Ty!
The best singing teacher in history
Thanks!
Again amazing lesson, you're such a good teacher. You know exactly when you should show it, and not only talk, but also say the most important and understandable thinks about it. Really good.
0:18 me after eating at KFC
you should do a video about Ville Vallo of HIM. He uses this technique so often its part of his identity. Great vocalist as well! Great range and tone the whole shabang
Thank you
Hello Chris, i love your works, editing, teaching etc. and i still can not believe that those are all free CZcams videos. Firstly, thank you for all of them. I have a little request from you. Could you do an instruction about Jari Mäenpää from Wintersun ? Especially in Loneliness. Have a good day sir !
This video redirected my attention to, and sealed my joining your course Chris. Cheers!
Thanks Chris! Finally figuring this out I think.
I'm pretty sure you helped me unlock false chord screams! My fry scream is still stuck in a whisper though regardless of my breath support. I've had a lot of traditional training so I didn't think that was a problem...
Ok the part where you sang over a track reminded me of Tyler Joseph and Dallon Weekes mixed together and it was beautiful-
I’d like to hear your thoughts on how long to warm up the voice for this type of scream? I do 30 to 40 minute sets with 100% pitchless screams and I usually have a tough time figuring out how much to warm up before a set so that I go in strong while having enough stamina for the entire set.
Thanks, Chris! Love your videos, man.
Please teach me how to scream like Sam carter
I learned the screaming via cardiliges screaming. Same thing as for sound but still contains somewhat of a pitch. While the vocal cords are singing the note the cardiliges create the distortion. It's really useful for low and mid notes but as for higher ones it is still kinda tough for me. Basically "nasal fry", because i use nasality to acces it, wel at least when i started out, now it comes to just "swithing it on and off"! Great lesson! I feel this method is kinda restricting ( the one in the video) but it really helps having a safe point where one can just turn it on.
On a side note does the voice's sound improve with time when singing? I have seen some improvement on mine but am unsure.
If you have the right approach, yes, you're tone will improve over time for sure!
Screaming his ass off, still sounding pretty friendly to me.
Chris is the Man !
For a long time (5y?) i was growling and stuff, but recently i had a 2y break, but even before that I couldn't understand the idea behind the fry stuff. I found your video both entertaining and enlightening. I'll stick to your channel for a while and see what happens next :)
Welcome!
I should've listened to you before doing my screamo covers ahahahah
about to get that silver button
What I find is if you scream a song in the same way as before you push from down low then it gives you a good way of practicing getting the fry on demand I find architects to be a good shout 👍
I often wondered if that type of screaming was compatible with developing and maintaining a good mixed voice. Evidently, it is! My main problem was and still is my passage, which feels hit or miss. Now, at least, I know I can work on both without fear of hurting one or the other.
Боже жто просто нечно!!! Это лучшее!!!!

More like vocal fried 'hahaha'
@@AmitDas-wp4vp *-hahaha-*
I love it thanks man i really liked those tips
I get such a thrill from listening to you screaming. I can't wait to be able to practice this too. Sadly, I have nowhere to do so because I don't yet have a sound treated room, so as to not annoy my neighbors, but it is in the works. It also doesn't help that I feel too shy and embarrassed to sound like an idiot 🤣
Hey Chris, just want to share that your vocal lessons have been incredibly helpful and the only ones that have resulted in any form of progress for me. Through your videos I've finally been able to learn how to scream and discover my mixed voice!! I do have a question though: I find that I tend to "forget" how to scream when I'm practicing my mixed voice and vice versa - is this normal? Thank you again for your amazing tutorials!!!
Totally normal. It just takes time... and being warmed up properly. I feel like there is an element of re-learning mix and screaming every time I go to sing! Even after years and years of doing this stuff... It's ALL about FEEL :)
Chris Liepe thank you so much for your response!! I thought I had been doing something wrongly hahaha! Keep up the incredible content 👍🏻👍🏻
His scream is pretty gnarly
God damn you're such a good instructor.
Thank you so much!!! This actually worked!!!!!
medo de virar mudo! mas esse canal é o melhor de todos! pqp
Man im begging u so much please review Architects and help me scream like their vocalist does he has a very interesting technique and im sure ull explain it perfectly
Great lesson and easy to understanding, thanks man! \m/
Thank you very much for going deeper into detail with this! The last video was awesome, but I still had several questions afterwards. Not anymore :D
I recognize that I Think that those from riffshop sound more aggresive. I don’t know if they use the proper technique, I only noticed the differences. However, I really appreciate people who sing like that.
My voice just never cracks, I get to the top of my range and then all that comes out is air
This was so helpful as well. My screams are pretty crap now, but I have technique still. These more in depth warm ups are sooo much better for me.
Great singer
Turning belly breathing into a habit was the biggest difference I ever noticed in my vocal consistency.
My fam rushed into my room, thinking I was dieing 😂
Excellent explanation and examples as usual. Got it first try on the quiet one. Now to build it up.
Hey Chris do you know how to do/teach the Michael Starr, David lee Roth distorted whistle squeal? (for want of a better name)
They seem effortless to those guys. Would love to know how to do those!
Loving the full course so far man, it’s brilliant!
Nice man!! Ya there's a LOT more on the use of FRY in the course so you'll be well poised to take that stuff on :)
What a useful video.
Great video! I usually feel it's easier to make a pitchless scream though. When I'm warmed up I can make a really decent fry scream, but when it comes to distortion (like Courtney Love for example, as I mentioned her in my last comment) it gets hard to hold the rasp and make it powerful. Do you think you could make a video about it? How to hold a powerful distortion but with a voice in it/ how to find the balance between the scream and voice and keep it that way :D
You might like my video on "Pain Free Distortion" I recently released on the channel. This covers that Courtney Love type vibe you are talking about!
@@chrisliepe Oh I think I have already watched all of your videos on distortion, but there's never too much advice :D Sometimes I have issues on developing my distortion, some days it sounds great, but mostly it sounds just like vocal fry exercises (I mean like the sound from the Grudge, not scream :D) and won't go further.
@@MishiaEatingUnicorn Here's a little advice! If you are struggling with distortion search for alternative ways to activate it. Something that acts as a "switch" I for example use cartiliges screaming( see my comment in the video I explain it a little). The sound for distortion will be almost the same with different methods but find your "switch" and develop it!
@@KERASET97 Aaah, sorry man, I don't understand the cardiliges thing. Could you explain more?
I'm not a native english speaker so I googled the word "Cartilage" and this is what wikipedia says:
"Cartilage is a resilient and smooth elastic tissue, a rubber-like padding that covers and protects the ends of long bones at the joints". I don't get how does this apply to singing/ screaming. :D
@@MishiaEatingUnicorn Hi, i read your comments and i feel exactly the same way. I can sometimes access my fry scream very decently but sometimes i also really dont! I hope that this just comes down to practicing more and it will be fine.
Now its been 8 months, how is your practice going ? ;)
I made so much progress thanks to Chris here!
I love this man
