A vocal screaming tutorial based on Kevin Sufacation's experiances.

Introduction
Learning how to scream isn't easy nor impossible, it's like learning an instrument, but It takes alot of practise and knowleadge.

First Step: "Singing" the right songs
From my experiance, I think screaming Linkin park's heavier songs is the best way of learning how to scream. Here's a list of reccomendation of songs and I reccomend screaming these songs in the fallowing order.

1. Don't Stay (Meteora) 2. One Step Closer (Hybird Theory) 3. Faint (Meteora) 4. Lying from you (Meteora) 5. A place for my head (Hybird Theory) 6. By myself (Hybird Theory

Second Step: Throat and Diaphram
When I was a begginer, I intended to use my throat alot and that's not very good, because using your throat hurts you, and may lead to a fucked up voice and head aches. Then I discovered to use my Diaphram. First try didn't come out that well, because i sounded like a dying cat but through practise it turned out better. Once you think you've mastered the linkin park songs move onto alittle heavier stuff. When you're screaming, if it hurts or feels weird, it's either your throat needs more lubercation(drink room temperature water) or you're doing it wrong. I reccomend screaming once per day. To maintain a good sounding scream, When your throat feels worn out you should stop. If you stop screaming for about a month or two, you might forget how you screamed before, then if you just scream your hardcorest, you'll hurt yourself It's reccomended to warm up your vocals before performing or recording. Also if you're about to burp. Let it out, because it can ruin your throat.

Third Step: Nutrience
To get a successful scream, you need the right stuff. Example, room temperature water, peanut butter sandwhiches, coke (the drink), carbonhydrates like bread, are good. but have bread first and then water, not the other way around because that'll mess your screams. from what i know, milk products,meat,vedgatable soup, grapes, oranges, and other foods, will ruin your day for screaming vocals even if you have it once. So plan ahead on when you're screaming. But Milk is only good for growling only and vedgatable soups take away the sustain of screams, and meat and other foods, just mess you up.

Step Four: Location
Pray to god that the people you live with, don't mind everyday nonsense of so called "Singing" a good place/time to practise is when you're home alone in your room or in the shower.
