  1. Hello man!

     

    Well one good point is that it is sounding relaxed. Is it comfortable?

     

    The bad part is that it is indeed nasal as it goes :). Also, when you began the second verse, "circus life", you let it fall from the position and was even a bit airy. 

     

     

    Try this, do the same you do currently, with slight changes. First try to just open more your mouth. Then, think of a SLIGHT yawn, you should still feel it the same, almost as if going through the nose, but when recorded the nasalance should be gone.

     

    Hope it helps!

     

    Oh btw, dial back the backing vocals and try using panning to separate them :)

  2. Enkay. I think you should quit, pursue a carreer as a Hokey player and the name of your firstborn should be Mark.

    You understand that I am not the one who should be deciding this stuff right? ;)

    As Clint said everyone can learn. But of course not everyone will be a singer. And it probably will not be easy either.

    After you decide, then I'll take a listen. Still, what do we do when we want to learn something?

    Good Luck!

  3. Hey Marcus, I just took a listen. I really did not like it much man.

    I felt a lack of attention to the song structure, I think you are trying to use the right energy, but it´s a bit lost, there are like 4 different "kinds" of voices on the song. The lows are a bit prog metal, some stuff sounds like early Mike Patton (you should keep that, I really like it), others more pop. It´s not homogeneous, makes sense?

    And despite all these variations, there are problems on the melody line and rhythm, this breaks the whole song no matter what you do.

    I agree it needs to open indeed, and not just the highs.

    Hope it makes sense!

  4. Dan, think I still use a tip you gave me for that beginning. Thanks for the words man!

    Phil thank you man :)

    ronws Thanks man!!

    geno knee and David thank you guys!!!

    Adolph I will right away.

    sange and Jabroni First thanks for the words guys. There are of course differences in execution, and Geoff Tate is a monster, I did not do anything other than how I normally would sing except that this song is indeed high. More difficult than what he did, I would not say, I think that different is a better word, if you notice the E5 for example and listen to how he did it and what I am doing, you will see that there is a difference in the registration too.

    Its a strong support but still within whats normal and expected. Makes sense?

  5. sls haha well, I think most of the stuff in the Seattle scene was heavily influenced by them, I agree its a different band, but AiC is a big part of everything that came from there. I have no problem with "grunge" but I also dont like a great deal of stuff that is under the tag :).

    wabba Thank you man!!

    Olem haha thanks man. I hear you, and thanks for the careful listenning, it is indeed off :)

    ronws Its one hell of a song... And Layne had his way of making everything that is already heavy and dark become even more disturbing, the lyrics are perfect. Thanks for listenning and for the words man.

  6. Hey Keith thanks man, it was about time I gave it shot on DT :)

    Thanks ronws, I will let him know for sure.

    gnee do check it man, tons of great stuff!!

    Xamedhi ahahah thanks man, I understand perfectly, but its kinda on the opposite side of what I do, it would sound weird and I would probably mess it all up ahhaha. I did try to do a few things more towards his style, just avoided the obvious ones.

    And thanks everyone :)
