If anyone has heard Burzum's early work, you'll know that Varg has a wicked scream. I am in a band and we are doing a few Burzum covers and I was wondering if anyone had any tips on how to do vocals similar to Varg (or any Black Metal vocals for that matter)?


Thanks

I know if you put a brick under your balls, and wack them with a hammer you can sound like Dani Filth

You sniveling little twat, why would you want to waste your vocal chords on such rampant shite? Why not scream like George Fisher, or even Jon from Dissection? huh?

What the hell do you kids see in Burzum? The man couldn't sing, muchless kill someone without getting caught like the fucking twat waffle he is. I mean, what kind of pedophile looking son of a bitch runs away from jail, and submits like the ass puppet that he is? THERE, SIR, IS YOUR BLACK METAL GOD! OH, WHAT A ROLE MODEL! SATAN666 -|-

The music is not good (on anyone's standard, really. I love black metal, and am accepting of other people's tastes, but you cannot call this shit music), which leaves only one reason for you to like Varg and Burzum:

You want to be cool, and kvlt.

Shut up, and learn how to sing your own style. You don't need to conform to some doucebag's vocal style when it wasn't even good for him.

(Yes, I see the irony in posting this, and acting like an asshole. Guitar_Demon encouraged my inner FBS. Stop listening to shitty music.)

His screaming is like as if he just fucking stabbed himself in the stomach or like shot himself in the balls with a shotgun. Then he gets that shreiking, harsh, throat splitting scream. Wouldn't try it though.

you hypocriticial, idiotic waste of human being. this wouldn't be half as infuriating if you hadn't stuck up for cradle of filth in the guitar zone. you're gay, fuck you and i hate you. loser. turd. arse. twat. faggot. dick. knob. and that you said you are accepting of other peoples tastes is the biggest oxymoron since all of rap music, aeroplane food, fun run, military intelligence. you shoot your mouth off at whatever band you please, eg. children of bodom "CHILDREN OF BODOM FUCKING SUCK," and then expect us to be nice about your crappy godspeed you black emperor.

so what if he looks like a pedophile? he isn't, and aside from the fact that he's twice as good looking as you and your fucking whore mother, metal isn't supposed to be about pretty faces and virginism and a pretty girl image. that's for pop. perhaps you should learn that.

his music is not technical or brutal by any means, it is ATMOSPHERIC, which is why it was created.

oh WHY OH WHY didn't you leave us forever instead of only temporarily

dude, check out the other thread alex started called "very high black metal shrieking," there's some good tips there.

taco and liqour shits

Perhaps tell me the alternative way that your post hinted at.

put a little distortion on the mic. and scream at the very top of your lungs , and loud, so that your voice cracks too. on the BURZUM album he had some chorus on his voice too (really obvious during the DEEAHHHHH.... YEEEEEEE.... IIIAUAAAAA part of Spell of Destruction). thats all i can say for early burzum albums, and dont be suprised if you near pass out after doing it. what he did was ridiculous and most likely ruined his vocal cords

ANYWAYS

for Filosofem, i know the exact trick. get a pair of headphones, plug them into the guitar jack on your amp and turn up the distortion all the way. headphones are made to have a cheap mic in each piece as well as an output device. these overload easily, and mixed with the distortion on your amp, (make sure its relaly trebly) youll sound JUST like him

omfgplz! - You ACTUALLY wanted to write all that only to display your disgust to Varg ? - well fuck me numb, dude; the sniveling little twat right now seems to be you, fuckbag - Every fucking human being has their own unique taste in music, and it is up to every one of us to learn it, listen to it or do whatever fucking thing we want with it - JUST like you do with Dissection (well, obviously)

I _ACTUALLY_ wrote this because I didn't think any shithead with an XXL brain stupidity level could actually write that and really mean it - You had the nerve to write it, and I will assure you that I know why you probably want to save your glory in these forums because of that numbsquatted act.



I find: Leng Tch'e - You Fat Prick - suitable for this post.

why would you post in a thread about a band just to flame that band and everyone who listens to them? And the arrogant way you just write off everyone else's taste in music as shit because it doesn't match yours is just irrational as all Hell. I hate stupid people like you Dissection

man, this newb pulls NO prisoners!

One thing I really hate is when someone asks like this saying "How do you sing like him? or How do you get this tone?" and fuckers say like "Get ur own style man, you faggit". It's like, maybe he does have his own style and all, it's just that they want to know how to get this certain tone on their guitar, or how to shriek like a demented fucker. Even though I have to agree, vocal wise, it's not that hard to figure out how to sing like anyone, unless you're asking how to do like a 20 second wail.

There is absolutly no way your voice can sound like someone elses voice, unless your vocal chords already sound like it

Anyway, If I want to sing like Burzum, I just sing inwards, you know instead of projecting your voice outwards. It sounds pretty fucked up.

powers and i own you all
