That chorus is extremely hard for most male vocalists. It’s at the very top of your range. You sir fucking killed it. Well done.

[@maoraharon21]

@Ismael Barrera to sing it in full chest voice is really hard to do for most males if you're talking about head voice then sure it's easy but won't sound as powerful

[@evilcowboy]

@@maoraharon21 I second this it totally sounds weak as shit using your head voice on anything Layne Staley sang. Has to be full chest especially the screams. I am starting to get there with his vocals, yes they are hard and extremely challenging, probably one of the most underrated singers. What helped me get there was imitating Axl Rose (used a lot of the wide jaw thing that sounds like marbles in your mouth), Dennis Locorriere (Dr. Hook singer who used a high register with some compression and distortion at times, good for control), Covering an Alice in Chains song where Layne only uses mild compression and distortion (Don't Follow is great for practicing his vocals) I am hoping to get completely there with his vocals, it presents a unique challenge that I haven't came across in most other artists I sing their songs. Some singers I can cover quite well, Layne Staley is in a whole other ball field, very cool singer.
