I've been told I can mimick that random scream from Third Eye (you know... that one... he doesn't say anything, and he uses his hand over his mouth to make it sound cool) pretty well. I should record myself doing it one time, haha

I wonder if they turn up his mic during the grudge scream, because if you don't use as much air and don't do it really loud it's not all that hard, but at that volume... man. it's pretty awesome though.
dunno bout him, but i for one can sing like MJK (without the serious screaming)
i mean, singing, like the beggining of H, or any APC song(soft ones), or some Tool song like lateralus or the patient i can sing with no prob, many ppl have heard me and told me that i actually really sound like maynard.

you must have like the biggest pair of lungs, to pull that off.
you must´ve never tasted a cigarrette before.
Never touched a cigarette... maybe that's why I can do it.
Though... I have very bad lungs... sometimes it's hard for me to breathe, when I ran alot or doing stuff that's intense (it has nothing to do with my condition).
But yeah... the 30 sec sream is kinda easy to pull off.
l've never touched a cigarette either...but l agree, 30 seconds isn't that hard to pull off.

damn, i can't remember the song, i'll post again when i remember it, but there is some maiden song with an incredible screem. he probably had a really clean throat from suckign all that dick though...
Yeah I went to perfect circle live and when he screamed towards the end of The Outsider it had to be like 30 secs or more it was so awesome i shat myself like 3 times over.
Well, I can do the "Sucker, suck!" in Ticks & leeches, which I agree, is not that hard, since the scream comes off the throath, not down under in the belly.

Yeah me too, i can do the scream, just though... I was sitting there waiting for the whole song just building up breath until it came then let loose and got it. We taped it for prosperity... Might upload it at some stage once I change it from VHS to DVD.

I can do both.
It's really cool to grunt along with bands like In Flame or Dimmu Borgir.
the grudge scream is pretty spactacular but another scream thats pretty long is from CKY- Sporadic Movement ... near the end of the song... he screams for a long period of time

yeah its long its really awesome... to me its always meant the giving away of the stone, the pain it causes when youre giving it away......which is why its so long: takes a while to let go of a grudge
post ho

Whoops. Anyway, I can hold a growl for a good 25 seconds, but thats a bit different. Growls don't require a lot of breath, and it seems a lot easier to hold growls because (at least I) don't use my full lung capacity to growl, while wen you scream, it seems to require more breath. But I'm not a singer. I play drums.
its really easy to do the scream thing, or maybe its just me, cause i dont scream all that hard, i sort of yell. i figure thats what mjk does, they just put up the volume. maybe im wrong, is he actually yelling?? cause thats hardddddddddddddddddd
Is that the longest scream someone has done on a song? if theres something better can i have the name so i can download it
I would'nt call it a scream.
Maynard inspired me to start studying vocal seriously, which is why I'm making this particular call :
There's a technique called "vocal fry", in which you add a raspy "screaming edge" to your voice. You know when you wake up in the morning, and say, "oh, I don't wanna get up out of bed" that sort of voice? Its the only way to add that harsh sound to your voice without injuring it. In this song, and in the end of Judith, and "good, BYYYYYEEEEE" in Eulogy are good examples.
A real "scream" by maynard I would say would be Jerk Off or Ticks and Leeches, where his vocal cords really are clenched all the way and he's just forcing air into them, and the tone becomes distorted. With Maynard's vocal fry, however, his cords sound open and relaxed and his actual tone shines through.
And Maynard is simply better at the vocal fry technique than anyone I've ever heard. Its his trademark.
The music course at school, we use Protools a profesional music mixing program
Some of the things u can do, is with the vocal track, when you do a scream ( or anything else) you can take a note from it and stretch it as long as you want, for example, u can say YEH!, take the voval movements of the E and make it go for a minute.
But TOOl prolly do it naturally, im not sure, it just amazing how well he can keep the exact same note for so long
The Grudge scream is the best part of the song. Adam's got that acidic riff going full swing under Maynard, and right before it Justin has a small solo.
