Daug Poland

Hello you vocal freaks ! It's been a fiew years since I have been tthere. Whell. I had a fiew years break from singing but I returned and I'm pretty active now. I'm singing in Genesis cover band (they would kill me for such version of Land as I've recorded here ) Wonder if there are some old guard representatives here? Anyway - I'm shering with you with my raspy metal voice development. I'd like to see some of your reflection on that. (also feel free to critique my english I'm self taught dude from Poland ) It is not "produced" - It takes like 15 minutes of recordings very early morning https://app.box.com/s/k7byhdqkhnk5x199puz40tvy7irdszhx Best Regards

Very nice Dev! :)

Luv the distortion. Pretty cool man Verses sound's more solid. If you feel like the harder parts comes with some strain, IMO you should check your vowels (position of your tongue - jaw tension) I have also checked this one a while ago. I have used softer onset and more distorted (rattled) sound - this way it come's really easy for me https://www.box.com/s/cda780eca047f4413666 Regards! :)

Awesome as always! :)

Great man! Your on your way for a killer curbing. Screams are insane :)

Gorgeous tone!

Nicely done man! :] For me this guy does not sound anything like Dio :/. IMO early Russell Allen was very close to Dio's tone

Congratulations! Awesome Stuff!

Wow! Great Jug!! Yeah.. I think it's best cover from ya yet! очень хорошо!

Yeah! Very nice Jug! I know those high parts of choruses is quite hard - it demand some extra support 'couse there is no much place to take a breath.

Yes. You are right.

Rowns I think it is really not the case of any extra bunch of exercises, but much more about setting of vocal tract wich you can find relatively fast. It is the position of open throat but also huge twang. I feel like I'm breaking into "vocal fry" around D#2/E2. As you can hear- in just few minutes I found a bit different setting and managed to go much lower I agree. It's very fine to use it as an efect but I also would not consider it as a part of range. That's why I lampooning when Brett Maning says he has a 6-octave vocal range. This way I have 7-octave...but really 4 and only 2/2,5 useful octaves indeed.

HEY! Let's make it more funny with fry Here is some my attempt going as low as I can --> http://www.box.com/s/1e6ms07cmnyr4o0gdi3p And one minute later even lower here --> http://www.box.com/s/783st6iecypo46ry7oqu Hah.. I have never try it befor (as I am listening now - i don't really think that I did hit this F in minus-octave on second sample )

I guess I know what Snejk means. I also had a time, that I was concentrated very much on high notes that my lows get's a little lost. It's not about vocal fold's and warm up, but obout vocal tract setting and muscle memory of it. Today I'm playing with many different settings of vocal tract -extremly bright or dark,fry and whistle and effects- creak, distortion growl and mixing of it. And despite I do not practice range itself - I do find it get's pretty wide :)

:lol: Hilarious topic. Me trying to imitate baritone (I am bright mid-tenor) Afternoon --> http://www.box.com/s/2l0q3edfp7bkur8sgfid
