 Released March 7, 2006. If you're a metal vocalist or wanna be metal vocalist you need to check
out this DVD. Renowned vocal coach Melissa Cross has put her teaching
methods on DVD with some special guest appearances by many of her
students, including Andrew W.K. There's even a bonus CD included that
you take take with you and do the vocal exercises to take you to the
next level of screamer. Being a metal vocalist is easy, right? Just grab a microphone and start
screaming. You might be okay for a song, but try doing it for 90
minutes each show, day after day. Just like any other style of singing,
to do it right requires proper training. And Melissa Cross is the
perfect person to do that training.
Cross is a renowned vocal coach who has worked with a lot of metal
singers. This DVD is her step by step training program on how to do it.
It's not just a dry, educational DVD, either. It's interesting and
sometimes funny. It's also filled with a lot of vocalists Cross has
trained, including Andrew W.K. and vocalists from Every Time I Die, God
Forbid, Madball, Shadows Fall and a lot more.
This DVD of course is directed at those who are or want to be
metal vocalists. But it's also an interesting look at what goes into
being a vocalist even for those who aren't in a band.
