"Growl.. Fries.. Medium Rare, idk" 😂
I read that the same time the video said it.

I believe anyone who wants to sound completely kick-ass singing a metal song in English, must first develop a funny sounding accent with which to speak English, because it seems the 2 go hand in hand.
It's called being Swedish
G uy ahhahahahah
He does have a Brooklyn hat...
I got a southern accent, take it or leave it.
Max Cavalera and Tom Angelripper

Man, since I found your videos you inspired me to record every song I had in my head. I love your work, the sound you reached, the personal touch you put on them. I hope one day you could hear all I have recorded. I don’t sound like you, but I’m pretty shure you would like it. Thanks for shearing how you create your music. I’m shure there is more guys recording their song thanks to you. Thanks for the rock!
I really liked this video. Hope you do a couple more like this. Your style, your sense of humor and everything else about your videos makes it fun and interesting but your voice is a massive part as well. Thanks for sharing!
Your videos are some of the most informative on UA-cam. Truly appreciate you and what your doing
1:18 5 year old me when i see someone from school at the store
when I go for a scream it comes out a whisper
james mcdaniel same here 😓
james mcdaniel stop screaming with your throat
james mcdaniel you might want to learn how to breath with the diaphragm. Once you get that, try to slowly apply that with the note you're trying to scream. Also, a FYI, use your flash cords instead of the vocal cords
fuzzy tubeman unless he's trying to do pure fry
Cruel and Unusual films that may be. But for a beginner, learning false cord, then to fry might be easier and more obtainable.
I didn't expect you to sound so adorable ♡ I was expecting a heavier voice because of your music I've listened to. I'm not disappointed at all 🥰
Brother, this series covering your recording week is truly inspirational. Thanks man. It certainly got me thinking about the way I do things.
OH MY GOSH, YOU ARE A GREAT SINGER DUDE! WHEN YOU DID THE DEMONSTRATION I HAD AN EARASM.
Exactly! You are the first singer that I've seen singing melodic growls and it just blows my mind
MAN, YOU ARE GREAT! CONGRATS, I DO LOVE YOUR WORK!
I love you man... You're polite, friendly, sympathic and extreeeeeeeeeemly talented! Keep on doing what you're doing!
I love that u mentioned the layering of vocals. As a rapper, I actually do this cuz I want it to sound way more full and anthemic. Love it
I love your videos. Just came across them tonight. Makes me wish I never gave up doing vocals. Worked so hard on figuring out my own sound and technique only to give up after a few bands falling apart. But your videos are motivating! I can't help but do my vocals still in the car on the ride home from work lol. Addicting to say the least! Maybe one day we could do a track together :D. Cheers and have a good one!
Thank you Leo for your inspiration. This month I will be making a big move into musical content creation. Literally buying a whole studio set up so I can start having some fun. I've spent hours and hours reviewing and adjusting to what I want and need. Now I'm down to the business part of things and it seems a bit over my head. The whole process of getting a cover or original song licensed and then onto You tube and all the other things is a jungle of it's own. You seem to have mastered it all, but I wonder if things are different for you compared to me since I live in Montana in the US. I mean when I look up cover songs from here, you would think everyone would be doing it. Is there a different rule set for doing this? You really only see the top notch covers and not much of anything else. Maybe it's a You tube thing and this is why you branch off to many different ways. Anyways I'm super excited to get started. I have been dealing with people at work looking at me like I'm crazy for doing this, but it's been a burning passion inside my soul for a long time that must be dealt with. So either I just have fun trying or I'll have the last laugh when I hit it big lol.
Thanks for this vid man! I like to have 1 main vocal up the middle and then record 2 more vocals and hard pan each of those (those are usually harmonies)
Awesome tips. Showed this to a friend.
Cool man, thanks!
all the best singers are humble, just like you, thank you.
Thanks🤘🏻 I learned something from you that I really needed🤘🏻
That ... Was Absolutely , the most helpful vocal exercise. Thankful That taught me alot.
And I say hey HeY HEY HEY HEY HEY
WHATS GOING ON
HEY, HEY, HEY, HEAR I GO INTO NEW DAYS. I'M HOPE, PAIN SUFFER, HEY, HEY, HEY. THERE'S NO MERCY FOR ME.
I like your taste and the choices you make and suggest...❤️
his voice...whoa
I LOVED this! Merci! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Just love with metalcore it's sound good ..🤘🏻🤘🏻😂💓
Introducing my 8 year old to your vids. She loves to sing, so as a gen Xer myself, she gets the metal songs!
Love your vidz and thanks for this . Greetings from Sweden :)
Your "hey" exercise is basically me when I waited 3 hours in line and some capitalist skip me because of a VIP ticket at a Rage Agains show
Blame RATM for allowing VIP passes at their shows. And lol at RATM thinking they're not capitalist themselves
Thank you for offering a singing tutorial like this! I've always loved your voice in your acoustic/metal covers and was curious if you were using any tracking techniques as well. This was very helpful and encouraging to me!
Thanks man! we love ya!:)
these are some awesome tips!
really useful bro.. thanks a lot
i live next to an old lady she will definitely appreciate it, thanks bro :)
Loving your work bro. Thanks for the tips, i will be checking out melissa cross.
I love your second hey.
Ur amazing bro !! *-*
Dope ass beard😂🔥
Super interesting to see a metal legend talk about vocal techs.
I’m tasked with doing vocals and bass for Static X tribute. I’m close but still have to refine my filters. I’m def going to use my stomach more because as you described my throat is taxed after songs push it, destroyer, hypure & bled for days. Dirthouse and love dump are currently getting worked out too.
I’m using Presonus along with studio artist pro filters etc. thanks for tip of harnessing the stomach for ranges vs torturing the throat. Sub’d & liked.
Thank you this helped alot!
Great infos!!! You are a so cool guy!!!!!! I love your work........... Best wishes from Europe!!! :)
Great video man! Also, did you teach yourself singing first or did you start on screams? I guess what I mean to say is that did you work on building the power and pitching on your cleans before learning to scream?
The first heyyy was so good
I was just listening to your playlist and am like yeah I need to find some tutorials on youtube on "how to sing metal". I am not disappointed.
nice video. i hope you
ll make a full mixing tutorial. :)
Very nice video I think the only other thing to add would be make a list of words all with different consonants at the beginning it helped me a lot. I'm still learning and your videos are what's teaching me!!!!
The last "Hey" was too much for my preference. What kind of range would anybody recommend me if you wanna reach a voice close to Ozzy Osbourne's range?
Thank you!!! this is a smart idea!!!! Continue! Ye follow you!!!! :)
Cool, I use melissa cross's techniques too + the warm ups prior every gig I do.. lol!
Some people say that grunt is just screaming into the microphone and that everyone can do it, but it's something that you have to practice. A good grunt is not something that everyone just can do
Thanks for some tips
thank u man !
Hey FrogLeap! :) Nice little instruction video.. I just wondered, what do you think about the growling and melodic singing of Mikael Åkerfeldt from Opeth? I'm curious about your opinion whether it be positive or negative. Obviously, he's my favourite singer, especially his so called "screams" as he calls it.
Keep on truckin'!
Hey, yeah I like his vocals. He has this really raw death metal scream thats cool. Havent listened too much to their latest records though.
Hehe cool.
You ought to at least listen to "Eternal rains will come" from their latest LP "Pale Communion" :)
Keep up the good work with your great vids man! I look forward to your metal version of Avicii - The days. Great pop track imo :)
Thanks man, will check it out:)
You r awesome
Thank you!
Berry, I*m not a singer but I thing it's cool that you share your knowlage
Keep it u!
Not what I was expecting in my head 😂 I was going more for a how to sound like RDJ tutorial
could anyone tell me the name of the song at the start? I'd say it's the same song at the end. Leo....great techniques brother. Been following you for a good minute. love your work, it's truly inspirational!

Hey, I really love what you're doing. Do you also write your own songs beside covers?
Salut mon amis ! J'aime beaucoup !!! 🤘🤘
Fuck yeah brother!! Simple and easy just the way I like it! Thanks a lot!
У чувака просто обалденный канал! Отличный видео и он вообще мега талантливый! (A dude just awesome channel! Excellent video and he did a mega talented!)
I find it amusing, that you're able to sound like a demon! Yet when you talk you sound like the nicest man in the world. :) Thank you for these great tips
Hey Leo
I'm not sure if you'll see this at all, but I'd love some feedback.
I've taught myself how to scream over about 3 years or so, and I've hit a wall.
I think its my breathing.
what are some good techniques to be able to hold screams/get through a full sentence without feeling like I'm about to pass out? thanks heaps in advance
DETTE var uventa, men faktisk veldig kult! Har leida itte sånnher flere ganger- så dette likte eg :D
dude, ive been watching your videos for s while and i never knew you had an accent
genius!
good video
1:45 that's What she Said...
I'm going to practice some more
funny ive seen botht he zen of screaming videos, and she makes a lot of sense and had great exercises that even a novice can get results from.
How to sing like Joe duplantier from gojira?
Awesome bro and it really works that way!!....but what is that song you sang in the beginning....that was fucking badass!!
"I'm not a teacher" ... lol! Uh. Yeah, well, you did some nice teaching there!
i am here to see what is metal😅😅
Some one asked me while i performed venom's voice🙂
I wanted to ask you a question because I hear you say you sell your songs. But your songs are covers. Are you getting permission from these artists, giving them a percentage of the sales? How are you doing that without lawsuits? Just wanting to know how you go about that so I might be able to later once I get my new studio up and going.
This is my first video of seeing Leo talk 😂
I know nothing about music and vocals but I completely understand this just out of common sense. That and I live around musical people and apps now
your beard is funny!
good work!!!
Your not a teacher !! Maybe , but i think have proven you know how to get there.
And think can inspire. I am completley inspired by you.
WHY is he so fucking awesome
Diaphram to strenghten use a balloon. Yes bro your growel is awesome . I dig your sound .. its awesome..
I was taught by my uncle that when singing you should use it from the diaphragm so your throat doesn't get fucked. Just putting this here for help lol. He said your stomach but the actual term is diaphragm but he is right on this video.
🏝🍞
deep growls are very beautiful, like filet mignon. Just wish some would sing about more lighthearted stuff
Thanks for hat! Unfortunately I only found it now.
Man, you're so fucking cool!
Esse som de abertura do vídeo é muito da hora
well this helped a lot, i was a terrible metal singer but now im acceptable
hi :) i'm looking for a video that guides through the process of making a metal cover for pop or any genre song...
Medium rare lololol
hi there :) i was wondering which mic would be best for metal song to use in loud concert. please mention one
