Andy's always been phenomenal but I love his originals! I love your screams My Ninja! Pure power & control! 🤘

[@GrimmGio]

Is there more courses coming soon ? Im excited and been doing the warm ups every day. Thanks Chris and Andy you guys rock🤘🏽

[@chrisliepe]

@@GrimmGio YES... There will be a full singing and screaming and recording course coming out, likely end of August depending on the amount of interest we can collect by then! Stay tuned!

Chester: AAHHHHHH Chris to Andy: Do the roar.

[@TAFRESHII]

😂😂😂😂

[@gmorkins6006]

hahaha just watched that movie

[@GambitRaps]

Always so funny watching Chris lose his mind at Chester’s vocals for the thousandth time, he’s just like me fr 🥲

[@damonmorreale9363]

I need somebody who looks at me the same way Chris looks at Andy when he screams

[@NoelBastosMusic]

Holy shit, when he did the "Miser-ey" pitch shift it was PERFECT. That is such a difficult transition to make, fuck. Amazing, Andy is a beast.

[@advancedmusic4641]

The key is going from a wide open mouth shape to a more narrow mouth shape

[@derpderpin1568]

as great as chester is, a lot of people need to look in to the prog metal world and have their eyes opened. the best vocalists and bands out there aren't on the radio.

[@GeorgeCardoso-mh2ei]

@@derpderpin1568 Prog Metal is full of voice effects and layers dude, not even funny lol

[@dominickainling]

​@@derpderpin1568Lol how do you come to the conclusion everyone that thinks those vocals are great just listen to "radio Metal" ?? I was inspired by Disfigured Elegance/Matthieu Paquette. Pocket fold screams are great and even Ozzy and ACDC do them, just less guttural. Pocket folds are a great way to elevate your vocals. Intensity, cleanliness, rawness, gaining volume without rupturing your vocal chords. And technically the more individual muscles you use the more unique your sound will be.

[@horizoniki]

Andy sporting a Periphery t-shirt makes me proud.

[@punisherff]

One day I will be able to sing this song! Thanks for the tips my friends.

[@willlopez4796]

That is one of my goals

[@bantzrayder8976]

I honestly think Chester himself would have benefited from this. He did wear out his voice over the years (based on the chronology of the many live videos I've watched). I think the beauty of Chester is that he figured sooooo much of his voice through experimentation. However, you are more susceptible to wear and tear doing it that way with a rigorous touring schedule like his.

[@aspiringtentacle]

True but one of the reasons we know so much about vocal distortion is thanks to Chester himself

[@6stringgroover]

Very true. Was a pioneer. Can’t believe he got fry screams and hybrid screams in front of that massive of an audience

[@GeorgeCardoso-mh2ei]

@@6stringgroover Kurt Cobain did fry screams way before Chester tbh, he just didn´t have an healthy lifestyle to improve and be the benchmark, sadly

[@vosoryan]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="542">9:02</a> If I could just casually make this sound while sitting there hardly trying, I think I would never need to accomplish anything else in life lol

[@terribletimmy2]

Found Andy randomly like 6 years ago via his vocal fry tutorial. I cannot believe he is not one of the biggest vocalists in multiple scenes. He's just so damn talented. Been following every single project he's done since

[@FIRST465]

If you said yes then stick around cuz im gonna show you how

[@josearjona3728]

Chester was a treasure and Andy is pure talent as well

[@christopherharv]

That’s Monuments’ vocalist! Dude’s screams are absolute top notch. The outro of their song Lavos is just a choir of amazing screams, most epic war cry outro of all time makes me want to take an army into battle like nothing else

[@meriwoo7382]

this is first time i've seen someone say they know Andy from outside KZbin

[@DeadOrDyingBattery]

Andy is incredible. Not just at vocals either. His composition and editing skills are world-class.

[@HeKillz712]

I am really of the belief that LP should have Andy at VERY LEAST do one tour with them. Have him come in and just do one sweep, filling in for Chester. I have never heard anyone as genuinely close to Chester as Andy. His Given Up cover is how I found him, and I still get blown away listening to him. I really think they should give him a shot.

[@ump3368]

Wow. Andy is crazy good at that Chester style scream. The way Chris was looking at him in awe was my reaction to most of Chris' videos on screaming, one day i'll crack it.

[@raybankin8342]

I have an idea. Take down notes about what Chris says and practice it in order to create your own version of Screaming styles.😊

[@Cyberdragunz]

@@raybankin8342 No need to practice in order, practice what comes naturally first to get comfortable, then work on the things that feel harder so you don't do damage. forcing it is the quickest way to hurt your voice

[@elpidamcree2847]

I absolutely LOVED how you guys talked about him as if he was still here. People like you are honoring his musical legacy with your amazing energy, passion, excitement. Thank you for this video. p.s. Andy is an absolute beast.

[@denniskoore]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="184">3:04</a> wtf? Andy is a machine, such control! damn

[@PhantomCitizen]

At the end of Andy screaming the 17 sec scream I teared up kinda laughing at the same time because it was so f'ing good it made me cry bruh

[@TAFRESHII]

Continue doing what you love.

[@Rosterized]

its a 2 parter scream in this footage they are watching, doing the full 17 seconds live must be really difficult even for chester thats why he did so many 2 parters too. If I remember correctly theres 1 or 2 times when Chester did it live the full way in one scream. I'm glad Andy addressed that aswell

[@Taylor1err]

one thing to mention about chesters performance there is that his diaphragm is really being engaged quite heavily. his breathing technique is so flawless doing what he does

[@Monius13]

I'll never cease to be amazed by Andy's skills. Incredible control and range.

[@maxporter4852]

So cool seeing Andy on here. Loved his singing for YEARS and he does not get enough credit for how incredible he is. HAVE HIM ON MORE!

[@chrisliepe]

Oh there's MUCH more coming!!

[@rynethorup5690]

I absolutely love how appreciated screaming vocals have become. Shout out to the vocal coach channels like this one and charismatic voice.

[@mhdibm7515]

I just love how happy these guys are when doing this Chester is really one of a kind

[@JakesVooDoo]

Andy is also a fricken master. Absolutely incredible vocalist.

[@nickwait5260]

Hearing Andy manage to complete the full scream is genuinely so sick haha. Great breakdown as always and it's cool hearing how those screams are truly done.

[@archangel_josh]

Loved the enthusiasm guys! This was fun to watch, I remember when I first heard this song YEARS ago I was like "No way he did this in one take...he couldn't pull this off live" And here's proof Chester could. So could Andy!

[@MattWinkler1]

This song really got me into Linkin Park, what incredible vocals and a flawless breakdown

[@Roffeu]

Andy's a gold mine, it's such an incredible opportunity to get to pick his brain like this about vocal technique. Amazing videos!

[@AdenMackdaddy]

Andy is an absolute beast! So much to learn here

[@hedaros17]

Jesus, I thought this could not be done, but it can apparently

[@hitesh_blues2353]

If I could fry+scream like Andy, I'd take all my stress, trauma, and frustration out on daily basis and live healthier! 😀 Thank you for this amazing video. Love, Chester Bennington ❤

[@Resin311]

Very great vocal demonstrations guys. Love the Periphery shirt Andy

[@_PatG_]

It’s almost more impressive that he immediately belts out after that 17 sec scream.

[@ikaros110]

Haha Andy was so proud of the 17 second scream and deservedly so!! Great job!!

[@fedard29]

Thank you guys for sharing your knowledge with us, love you ! And love Chester ! ❤

[@Tzalmavet]

We need an updated vocal tutorial from Andy Cizek. He's using demonstrations and examples here that make fry distortion seem easier to achieve than we believe.

[@chrisliepe]

It’s coming out this Wednesday :)

@chrisliepe Incredibly excited to hear this news! Looking forward to Wednesday!

Goddamn this video gave me tongles voice control and hpw easy screaming is to this guy is insane sounds is like ridiculous not heard someone this close and immitating screamsnjust sat doing a video casually on the spot is crazy to me. Amazing epic i would totally be chris in this but fanboying even more over the incredible technique.

[@diegogarcia1639]

Oh my god, 17 seconds scream was so epic!!! I have learned a lot, thank you guys

Ok this is so freaky, after watching your vocal distortion vids about two weeks ago I decided to start practicing the given up scream over the last few days and now here this video pops up 😂

[@JakobiBlu]

This was such a treat to watch. I remember watching his videos years ago about learning how to scream haha. The dude is amazing. Great video Chris as always, love the in detail vocal analysis of all of the great artists.

[@Jonthebard]

Andy to be LP new vocalist!

[@jessehutchings]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="110">1:50</a> It's fascinating how high Chester's voice is for the chorus. It's amazing that he chose to put so much grit into high ranges <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="160">2:40</a> I think Chester's chorus is actually kind of in the nasal cavity. A trick he might have picked up from Chris Cornell

[@josealberca]

Heard Andy Cizek is going to be on a song with Tyler Rossow and Nick Thurl of October Ends. That's gonna be an insane feat. Andy's screams never stops amaze me, thanks for doing this video!!! Keep the Linkin Park legacy alive 🔥

[@KassidyPhantom]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="575">9:35</a> This was my "Ah ha!" moment for reaching that type of high fry scream. Definitely something I want to work on!

[@Maxim_BornDivided]

On stage, you also give a show ! Expressing is very important to get people get active in front of you. It's also a very acquired skill ! Chester got a lot of all of these skills as also mentioned on the video. Love you guys !

[@cathysnider8717]

Love the energy and chemistry between Chris and Andy. Instantly teleports me to my happy place every time. This video is nineteen minutes of experiencing the pure joy of appreciating a master while exploring and discovering the vocal possibilities we have expertly guided by Chris and Andy who know how to break it down and show us how it’s done. Awesome video! Love Andy’s warmup course. Can’t wait for the full course. 🙏🥰

[@frankunodostres473]

well there are different approaches to screaming. you can do it differently than chester and get a 16 scream with good breath management. but that GIVEN UUUUUUPPPPPPPPPPPP note in the chorus is just insane every time. there is no easy way to do that! btw I have the same cajon that can be seen in the background^^

[@blackdog6969]

I swim like a rock but I know how to hold breath. I've needed to go hard at times. Breath control is astounding. Andy is doing great and I thought he was meh a few years ago. Go hard, Andy

[@dairwind]

Im just flabbergasted how this guy can scream so well

[@tomlebeau7921]

I’m so close to being able to do this. After years of doing heavy vocals for fun, I really want to get disciplined with the technique that allows me to keep singing as well as screaming... I can randomly reach for certain sounds, but being aware of the specific placements is the next step. Can’t wait for the course.

[@nacholp6046]

the particularity in chester screams was he always added a high note in it, even other recognized singers in the rock industry like m. shadows can't replicate that screams he was unique, we fvckin miss u chazz 😢🕊🕊

[@matthewchavezm.b.s5503]

This was great. What a nice breakdown of a cool track. Thanks to both of you for hooking it up with the vocal content. I see our voice the same way Andy does where we have built in distortion and fx within our voice box. It's just learning to use it, just like learning how to use it on the computer when adding fx.

[@sl3269]

I think is time for this channel to have as a guest or at the very least a collaboration with Justin Bonitz from Tallah/Hungry Lights
