how to fry scream howtofryscream
I have been trying this on and off for about 8 years, honestly I gave up many times, after the non updated version it helped a little bit but I had the feeling to check your channel and see if there was an update, which there was, I have FINALLY just managed to do it!
better than ever before, I can hear the difference!
I'm so happy and excited, this has been the ONLY one that worked for me, I have seen pretty much every tutorial in english about the fry scream!

This is the best tutorial
thanks for your tips, i'm finally getting it right after a lot of practice. a friend from Brazil
Hi, I am very happy to read that, great job!
Greetings from Poland!
This helped with airflow. Thanks.
I'm very glad to read that, awesome!
Love Your Tip 💙💙
Love your comment!
thanks man i'll be tryn :D
Thanks
I've been trying to learn fry since I was 16 (can do False chord) I'm 21 now, could never do it doing the throat singing way or the grudge sound, istg within like 7 minutes I was able to get it flowing with this method, this shit is literally hacks.
I went through a similiar process so I totally get it. My main technique was, and I think still is, false cord and it took me a while to learn the fry scream.
Beside proper exercises and technique, what helped me in a fundamental way was regular practice, even a few minutes a day of practicing fry. I was focused too much on false cord and singing, and I treated fry as an additional thing but at the same time I expected it to be on a highest possible level, which can't work :D
Have a great practice and thanks for the comment!
I’m naturally really loud so I hope it’ll sound amazing once I get it!!
Amazing vídeo!! I tried saying Saaaaauuuuur. I feel like a real Bulbasaur doing it.
Bulbasaur is the best.
Yep, way easier this way. Almost got it in seconds
Perfect!
This was almost my first time trying to scream. Is it normal that my throat gets kinda itchy/tickles? It also triggers my gag reflex a little bit but it doesnt hurt or anything
Hi! Itchiness or tickles are unfortunately common BUT not healthy! Gag reflex is definitely not normal too (but I heard that sometimes it appears).
Anyway, some people can scream in a comfortable way pretty fast and without any technical preparations, but the most of people, for example me or the most of my students, need to build solid foundations at first.
Those foundations are proper posture (it impacts your breathing and how your muscles are working and if they are in a healthy balance), breathing (if it works good, it's helping you to use properly your breath support), the support (helps you to avoid straining your throat while singing or trying to scream) and basic voice emission (even if you don't want to sing, knowing your natural voice and how to set it properly, will help you to avoid discomfort, tickles or itchiness in your larynx and throat while doing vocals).
When those foundations are at least ok, you can start to make first steps towards screaming - you will learn faster and without risking any vocal injury or pain.

Hey,
Thank you so much for this tutorials.
Is there a way to send you a recording? I'm not sure I'm doing it right..
Thank you

This video has definitely helped me actually get this lol (been trying to fry scream for over a year for my high screams, but I have one question. I feel/hear this slight kinda like….idk buzzing sound, like a cellphone on vibrate (or a vibrator lol) is that normal or supposed to happen? It feels like it’s coming from around the bottom of my neck right above my chest. Like the soft spot where your neck and chest meet. I also have a problem of somehow having my false cords “join in” and making a very static, cracking sound. I can’t seem to get just fry without it being quite
Hi! Having a chance to listen to your vocals would help to tell you more helpful and accurate things.
Feel free to send me your vocals (even phone recording is good) on my email (xvocalcenter@gmail.com) and I'll do my best to help!
You're video's have been an amazing help. I've been trying to fry scream for years now and every time I practice it always feels like the sound is getting cut short. Like almost too much compression where the aggressiveness goes away into almost a squeak. I'm a naturally loud singer - but super confused on fry screaming for some reason. Got any tips to help with this?
Hi! Fry scream in the beginning is often more quiet than we experct (especially if we normally sing loud) so we try to amplify it subconsciously but it can create extra pressure and tension that will prevent us from getting the fry scream.
Feel free to send me a recording with your attempts for fry, I will gladly listen and share some feedback :)
@@sibilaextremevocal Thank you for the tip! I will make up a video and send it on over! Thank you so much - I really appreciate it!
Thanks a lot, Can we get a 2.0 for false chords? Please, I'm struggling a lot with false chords haha
Hi! Did you try this one?

Here is the false cord playlist, there are more false cord materials there:

Let me know when you try it out!
@@sibilaextremevocal I'm gonna try it, I hope that this one works for me bcause I've tried a lot, thanks.
can this help with distortion development aswell like rocksinging?
It's mostly dedicated to screaming (which appears from time to time in rock singing) but if you look for exercises directly dedicated to rock vocals, feel free to check out those videos:

I will record a new video for raspy singing for the course on Udemy in 2 weeks.
1:05 am is apparentely not the best time to learn this :/
It depends, if you are surrounded by sleeping people then apparentely not the best time for sure :D
To me all of these videos feel like:
How to draw a horse.
1. Take a pencil
2. Outline the approximate shape.
3. Draw the horse
Haha, great vid tho! ;)
:D
There are many different methods and exercises. For me the biggest struggle was to find the ones that felt like they fit my voice and help me to progress. It took me 3 years to learn how to properly scream with the fry.
@@sibilaextremevocal I really want to learn it, out of necessity. Our band needs vocals, and good vocalists seem hard to find. However, I don't think it is realistic for me to learn in in a year, let alone be good at it ;p.
I will keep trying though 😅
From what I observe when I practice with my students, those who aim for very fast results or even just think about a possible amount of time that is necessary to learn the fry scream, have much harder time in learning it. Those who are free from any external or internal pressure learn it with much more ease.
That might be obvious but expecting too much too early can kill the progress. It works pretty similiar to muscle gains - it's a process and it requires some time but most importantly avoiding pushing yourself too much physically or mentally, or both :D
I practiced with a couple of people who were failing to learn anything consistent and sustainable because the only thing that they kept on thinking about was "I have to learn it fast" instead of doing things step by step. They were making the same mistakes over and over again (for example practicing songs or even whole setlist without having a proper placement for the sound and without ability to produce even one good growl or scream - good means a comfortable and "ok" sounding ones). Some of those people understood it and let the process to gradually progress. Some didn't and they ended up being frustrated and still not able to scream or growl.
I'm pretty new to screaming as a whole. I think my false cord is good, thought it was easy to get the hang of. But fry is giving me such problems. I can vocal fry, and even at the cusp of starting to scream it. I feel like I'm close but I have no power behind it and I sound like a baby lion or a pterodactyl. It hurts my throat after a very short time too if i try to belt it. Any tips to help me out?
Hello, it will be easier to give some specific tips if I have a chance to listen to your fry attempts. If you have any recordings feel free to send me them on email - xvocalcenter@gmail.com
Currently I have a lot of work to do (recording vocals for 14 songs this month, releasing ebook and a new course next month) but I will try my best to find time and help you!
By the first time I tried, I got it, not with much volume, but still was good enough.
Unfortunately, I can't find how to do it again, it feels and sounds like a vocal fry instead of a fry scream, but I'll keep trying, thank you for this tutorial
Did you try to practice with other exercises? It's always good to have 2-3 different ways for practicing one type of a scream because during one day, one method can work but on another day something else will turn out to be more effective.
I have a question.
Does Randy Blythe use fry scream?
Hi, I am 99,9% sure he is using fry scream engaging his false vocal folds (especially in later albums).
ua-cam.com/video/FMeThwIPnnc/v-deo.html
Dude i really want the scream of Jared Leto when 30stm were rock!!! It's possible to do the same (yours its seemed with the him) or every person has different scream???
Can you send a specific example of the scream you mentioned? Each person can sound different. You can also add your natural voice to the scream. I don't do that in this video and I think that Jared Leto has more of his natural sound color in his scream.
I almost got it
How is your practice? :D
Doing the sss-wah thing works… until I lose the phlegm in my throat and then it’s just a whisper. Been trying for years on and off and can’t get anywhere past a phlegm-filled whisper
Hi! Whisper can give you fast results but is very limiting in the longrun.
Feel free to send me a recording with your vocals and I'll do my best to help :)
@@sibilaextremevocal Thanks! I’m trying to avoid the whisper. When I first started learning, I had to be quiet so now my muscle memory sort of resorts to a whisper and it’s all coming from my throat, I can’t really get it to do anything else. I can apply a fry to a falsetto head voice like you recommended. but once I try to give that some air the fry disappears and I sound like a crying baby 😂
It sounds like you use too much pressure on your vocal folds. Enough air pressure is necessary to produce a fry scream but overdoing it can result in creating a clean constricted voice.
Habits and muscle memory are pretty important part of learning any vocal technique, that's why the very beginning of practice is so important. I've learn the fry scream in a week but I was using my throat mostly and I needed 2 years more to get rid of that habit and relearn the fry in a fully proper way.
Did you try to learn the distortion or kargyraa and use it for creating fry scream?
Hi, im a singer of a small rock band in Spain, we will now cover Walk and From Yesterday on our repertory, the only part where im having problems is with the scream part, ¿is this the technique used by jared leto for middle and last screams of From Yesterday?
Hundreds of peoples are gonna listen to me singing this in a few months and i dont want to simply sing that part diferently, i would like to perform it purely.
Hi! Cam you send the link and the exact time when those vocals appear?
It will help me to give you the best answer possible :)
@@sibilaextremevocal ua-cam.com/video/WbmrYfDxyRk/v-deo.html
Thanks for answering. From 2:25.
I think it really is a fry scream high pitched, i started today with it and the results are surprisingly good for a first day. I were slighly out of tune in the last note change, but for a 1 hour training, i think i got it.
It's almost fry scream, but it's much closer to singing with distortion. If he relaxed his vocal folds a little and added a compression, then he would get a scream.
What he does is to sing higher and higher, his voice starts to break a little and distortion appears, then he increase the pitch even more, but still it's raspiness with clean, compressed and a little bit "broken" voice. It requires a good control, because it's easy to "break" into the falsetto (then he would sound like a chicken or AC DC vocalist :D).
Jared is out of tune pretty often, but his sound color is really nice, and his range is pretty wide!
is it normal for my throat to feel really dry after doing the hissing exercise? i'm afraid it'll damage my voice
Hello, it shouldn't feel very dry or itchy. It would be great to have a chance to listen to your attempts so if you have any recording, feel free to send me it on email - xvocalcenter@gmail.com - I will try my best to help, for free. :)
This is helped me, but mine sounds kinda… low volume. Is this normal?
I am happy that it helped! If volume is at about 3/10 or 4/10, it's a pretty common thing. Usually when the volume is lower, then it's probably a fry noise which is a kind of a "little fry scream" (I don't mean the vocal fry, of course :D).
If you want to improve the volume, then working on the projection might help:
ua-cam.com/video/LZslw47AQCQ/v-deo.html
It's one of my favourite exercises to warm up my fry scream and it helped a lot of my students to gradually make their screams bigger.
it helps...🤘👹
That's awesome!
@@sibilaextremevocal thank you sir..
I love the hamster in the background
Me too, R.I.P. hamster [*]
Is it possible I've done it and my screams just sound like a screeching chicken?
It is, especially when you push too hard on your vocals folds and/ or cartilages.

@@sibilaextremevocal Kiedyś miałem nick BRAJANO NA YT
Teraz już poznaję :D
Hi! I'm not sure to have it right, but are you exhaling while doing the fry scream? Or 'holding' air? Thanks a lot :)
Hi! That's a good question :D In my opinion I am exhaling but of course more air is flowing while hissing than doing fry so it might feel that you hold your breath when you compare the sensation of those two. I would suggest to try out two ways you mentioned because everyone feels things a little bit dofferently and what is "exhaling" for me, for you might feel like "holding air".
Feel free to write your observations once you try it out, I will gladly learn about your progress!
@@sibilaextremevocal thanks a lot for the explanation :) I can't do it at all trying to 'exhale', so I think I'm more like 'holding' air.
How is it possible to sing lyrics while we 'hold' air? Is there anything to 'push' kind of?
Damn, can you send me a recording? It will be easier to tell something more specific!
My email is xvocalcenter@gmail.com
I’ve been trying for months still can’t do it
Beside trying to scream, did you work on other important things like posture, breathing and resonance?
i’m able to do basic false chord screaming but whenever i try n do cry screams they just end up being quiet with little to no power behind them, is there any specific thing i’m doing wrong ?
It's pretty common that fry scream compared to the false chord (especially if you have more experience with false chord) seems to be weaker. For the most of people it's easier to produce a massive false chord much earlier than a powerful fry scream.
To tell if there is something that you can do better, it would be good if I had a chance to listen to your vocals so if you have any recording, feel free to send me it and I will do my best to help!
xvocalcenter@gmail.com is my email :)
Update: I fuckin did it! Full fry scream at last! Is it ok if i feel a bit of a chill/tingling sensation in the throat?
It can mean that you did it a little bit too hard and some unnecessary constrictions appeared, but what matters the most is the fact you did it!
When we try to scream too loud or too high or we focus too much on producing very powerful sound, it can create some unnecessary constrictions and irritation of our vocal folds and overall throat/ soft palate area.
I would try to check if doing it less forcefully or not so loud/ high would help to increase the comfort and at the same time to deliver the best quality scream.
@@sibilaextremevocal awesome! Thank you!
I’m having trouble adding distortion i can only do the fry and when I do it sound robotic
Did you try to learn the kargyraa or distortion for singing?
@Sibila Extreme Vocal Center I should have phrased this a little better. I am able to do Kargryaa, Distortion, and fry as well but I am having trouble applying those to the hissing sound.
Now I see, thanks for the further explanation. Then it may turn out that this method will not work for your vocals, it's hard for one exercise to fit every voice :)
Maybe a vocal break could be useful to get the fry scream, I will upload a video on that topic in upcoming weeks.
Thank you for your help anyway. I’ll get fry down eventually. For now I’ll stick with my lower growls
@Sibila Extreme Vocal Center Update I am this close to getting fry scream. I can get the basic sound and am bad with pronunciation and projection. It’s still really quiet how loud are you usually?

is this supposed to be any harder for girls?
Hi! Actually from what I observe, most of the girls have much easier time while learning how to fry scream, but of course every voice is different
I got something like it but not really its really quiet and more like a whisper
And when i try to pressure more i get a vibration bass
Whisper is never the best foundation for screaming, sooner or later it can start to be limiting. Hissing is more opened and less constricted than whispering, that's why it is used in this video :)
Did you try other methods presented on the channel?
@@sibilaextremevocal i tried and didnt get none
Alright, do you have any recording with your attempts for screaming?
Feel free to send me your vocals on email - xvocalcenter@gmail.com
I'll do my best to help!
@@sibilaextremevocal ill try to send one by tommorrow
@@sibilaextremevocal unfortunately l the attempting got to me and i have a very sore throat
everytime i add the fry i make a goblin noise and cant get past it into using my voice
If your fry transforms into a clean, tight sound, then it means that your vocal folds are too tight. Did you try other methods?
From what I observe while doing lessons and from my own experience in the past, the biggest struggle to overcome is finding methods and exercises that suit your own voice.
Here's a playlist with A LOT of various exercises. I hope that they will turn out helpful for you:
ua-cam.com/play/PL0IFgUhWfXCshVFMId6QEeMMHvze2ETJ9.html
When I lead vocal workshops for groups of people, this exercise turns out to be extremely effective and some people who never tried to practice fry scream, learn it on a basic level in a matter of 1-2 hours:
ua-cam.com/video/DJXWG44yH_k/v-deo.html
Как тебе группа Amon Amarth?
I respect them and like a few songs from them but I am not the biggest fan for sure! I think that the vocalist should do more lows and maybe even gutturals because his growl is deep as hell and there is a huge potential that in my opinion is not fully used.
@@sibilaextremevocal полностью согласен с тобой.
I Never get it done properly
Why?
how is this helping everyone except for me
I practiced with people who learnt a basic fry scream with this exercise during the first lesson but I also practiced with the ones that didn't benefit from this method at all and their voices needed totally different methods to learn the fry scream.
It's very important to find such exercises that fit your voice best. It doesn't have to be this specific method at all - feel free to check out the fry scream playlist on this channel :) In case of any questions, write a comment and I will do my best to help.
I STILL CAN'T FUCKING GET IT, BUT I UNDERSTOOD THE FALSE CHORD RIGHT AWAY
HEEEELLLLP
Hi! Many people find the false chord technique much easier than the fry scream.
To really help you, I would need to know a couple of things:
1. What is your overall experience with vocals (any singing or screaming lessons, choir practice etc. - everything matters),
2. How long do you practice fry?
It would be also great to have a chance to listen to your vocals so if you have any recordings feel free to send me them, of course if you want to - xvocalcenter@gmail.com - I will do my best to help!
@@sibilaextremevocal holy shit dude I forgot you had responded sup.
Well... 7 months after, I've refined my false chord scream greatly... and I still can't get the fry...
@@sibilaextremevocal
1- No professional experience with vocals, been singing in my house since I learnt them
2- More like how long have I tried to even get something close to a fry scream, I haven't practiced because, well... I haven't been able to get them right even once.
In case that's not what you meant and I misunderstood the question, I try getting it a couple of days a week for about 10 minutes and proceed to give up for an entire month after I see no results
I'll try and send you over some false chord recordings (if it helps) within 48 hours
Sure, clips can help :) My email is xvocalcenter@gmail.com
I don't know why but for people who easily learnt false chord, fry scream seems to be difficult. I experienced it during my own practice and it took me 2 years to understand and learn a basic fry scream. It took me 2 more years to be able to do everything that I want to :D
Wow your accent changed
For better, I hope :D
I will never get it done even once
Why?
@@sibilaextremevocal I just can't find anyone who can help at my point, I can get the sound of a scream but it's very quiet, comparable to normal speaking. I've been at this exact point for 8-10 months without improvement while practicing daily. Thanks for your response though!
