How Amon Amarth's Johan Hegg Learned to Scream

[@Apollyon108]

The way he growls is amazing, brutal, yet understandable, one of the best growlers in death metal

[@BradWolfe113]

Absolutely agree. 🤘

[@freddelarsson4434]

100% - a personal favorite besides Johan (among others) is Phil Bozeman from Whitechapel. He is hands down, the best DM vocalists in the scene right now. According to me atleast.

[@Crrrr0wFire]

This man is the reason I got into growling & he also gave me the best advise when I got the chance to meet him (at the Berserker Pre-Listening) "Don't tense up" he said. That opened it up for me. Being relaxed in the throat lets it sound much more brutal in the end. Also that EQ trick, bumping up the high frequencies in the monitoring helps big time. 30 years! 🥳

[@hannibalbarkas1350]

Yea that's universal advice for everything music. When I started to relax while playing guitar it had the same results.

[@lavendersalad81]

Very good advice! I shall remember this. By the way, I'm your 69th like :D \m/

[@Deathmetal104]

Johan is my favorite melodic death metal singer, i've loved Amon Amarth since I was 14 and now i'm 25 they're still my favorite melodic death metal band, I first heard them in Saints Row 3 back in early 2013, it was when my parents bought me the game and I couldn't stop listening to them and still can't🤘🤘🤘

[@Kreighouston]

What a great representation of modern metal. Johan is a master of his craft and a truly genuine and humble person.

[@donovantooley8707]

Saw them live a couple years ago with no real expectations. I was blown away.

[@bai9419]

He brings his growl from the depths of his soul

[@ultralyrics1]

Johan is like if big diesel truck have voice

[@Dissolved_Salt]

I definetly noticed Johan being more comfortable and experienced with his voice comparing The Serpents Trail to older songs, love it!

[@amyjones2119]

The way he growls sounds like a fire, sometimes a huge raging fire and sometimes like burning embers.

[@sebben13]

I bet Johan inspired thousands of people to growl, just like he inspired me. Absolute legend.

[@bubbatumps]

Seen 'em live 3 times so far plus meet and greets. Love this guy and this band so much. Can't wait to take another photo with them again in December.

[@pennywise3381]

Amon Amarth is absolutely my my favorite band ever!

[@WinterwarOfficial]

Gonna see them live next month in norway!!

[@ArCaNiS23]

Really really great questions. Keep it going, you are awesome!

[@sonofodin9201]

[@NarrowJester91]

[@felixdorn21]

[@haylenwalsh2597]

[@dubdevil7836]

It's good to know almost all extreme demonic warrior song makers have polite and lovely personalities.

[@Bonelessphantom]

After the berserker album amon became my fav band

[@awolfinhumanshape2623]

_Then you'll love their older stuff by far_

[@Poser_Metal_Records]

Loudwire still refers to harsh vocals as screaming...

[@learningtoscream4105]

I've been teaching myself how for a year and a half. I think I'm doing pretty well so far.

[@HSarwar422]

Lol I could listen to them talk for an hour

[@johndoepker7126]

Well this has to be one of the best YT algo suggestions I've had in a while! ....Amon Amarth is one of my favorite bands....and to hear the lead vocalist...in his own words and natural voice....so freaking cool!!! Thanks for this Loudwire! Got yerself a new subscriber!.... P.s. don't disappoint me.

[@u.s.m.c.fewproudthemarines2987]

[@coleyyy704]

[@JK-ex6rn]

[@awolfinhumanshape2623]

_That's right. Put some respect on his name._

[@WHOREHAMMER_OFFICIAL]

I thought he sacrificed a child to odin

[@iododendron3416]

He did, but not to gain his voice.

[@WHOREHAMMER_OFFICIAL]

@@iododendron3416 makes perfect sense 👍

[@slowemm]

I saw a band named Scum many years ago in Chicago, wonder if it was the same band that preceded AA

[@jamesdragonforce]

What year was that?

[@slowemm]

@@jamesdragonforce Think it was early 90's

[@scottreynolds5455]
