tapes are good, until a few weeks of listening, but hey if you get bored with 10 easy wishes you could put sticky tape over the end and record some crap off the radio

tapping with a pick can have different effects from fingers.

woo! JJ

ok. I have been doing some research and im gonna build my own jazz bass. ive been searching through warmoth. i cant decide what kind of wood to go for yet. It will have a thin jazz bass neck wit block inlays, natural wood finish, pickups (thinking towards music man pickup but not sure), hip shot whammy bar

hmm, well i tap my bass that ha 50s . im no expert on the guitar but it could be becuase your fingers arnt strong enough to tap the 10s yet. try shifting around with your pickups to try and get the clearest sound and crank up your volume.

just saw it a minute ago. Kinda weird, i dont know what to make of it

yes!! thats all i can say

who - pictures of lilly

i like kill kenanda (or something like that)

a teacher is a useful person. However learning from yourself is just as important.

im sure they like their emo though. I was watching that new pop chanel, hmm whats it called, flaunt. And its was the busted selecta or something. one of the tunes they played was by funeral for a friend.

well done guys! shame they cut the song short though

cool, ive been wanting to have a go at making some pedals

i write songs about really rubbish stuff. animals are also a common feature. and i also take insperation from nature

im the get up kids

way! your winning again

that is soo uncool. damn that other band

#0 shut your door, or make sure nobodys home, this is pretty important because you can't be shy about this at all, if you do it half assed its gonna sound like ****... also your parents or whoever your living with is gonna think your a fackin psycho. No worries at my house though, they already think im crazy.

#1 take a deep breathe and open your mouth, wide motherfacker... nobodys gonna here you if your shy and have your mouth half closed. Practise your breathing every night put a book on your chest and lift it up with your stomach as you breathe in. Eventually try to see if you can breathe in and breathe out only once a minute.

#2 stand up straight and put your shoulders back so your vocal cords are open--i cannot stress this enough, i realise that many singers on stage do not do this but that is because they are so well trained they think they dun have to well they're wrong, in the studio when they do it, I'm almost 100% sure they aren't crouching or jumping around. Since you are just starting make sure you do this so you don't **** up your voice.

#3 raise your cheekbones up so it looks like your kinda makin a stupid grinning face. I'm not really sure what this does, but it works, every vocal teacher I've had has told me to do this. If you want to do as little damage to your vocal cords as possible do this.

#4 Practise with a microphone, nobody can sound like they do without a microphone... its the distortion you get through the PA that makes the scream sound good. Plus when you practise with a microphone you get a feel for how loud you actualy have to scream. When you have a mic you'll find you really don't have to scream so loud... thus the reason why a singer can go do shows 7 days a week and not **** up his voice.

#5 (this is where some of you maybe leaving us) Ok, do know the difference between full voice and falsetto? You know how you can sing 2 ways, one with your full voice (gut) and one a little girly voice thats comming just through your throat... it doesn't have any power really but it can go really high. When you scream, you want to use this voice if you don't want to wreck yourself. For years i tried to scream with my diaphram and i kept hurting my throat and for some stupid reason i thought eventually it would get used to it... it doesn't. Please do not try to do this unless you are doing low pitched screams.

Anyways, into the mic, with your falsetto voice (i cannot stress enough that you use your falsetto voice and not your full) , and I know this sounds stupid but try to imagine that your singing out of the temple of your head... and push as hard as you can a scream. It doesn't have to be loud even, you are using a microphone, it just has to be pushed really hard from your throat.

#6 don't get discouraged if you don't get it right away... it takes time. I would sugguest if you haven't already take some vocal lessons... it helps a lot strengthening your falsetto. If you don't have a strong falsetto you'll never be able to scream.

And lastly, pick songs that have easier screams at first. Listen to the breathing of the screams, and try to breathe when they do. Do not try to do something insane like Deftones - Elite LOL I've been screamin like 2 years now and i still can barely get through the whole song without goin red in the face from lack of air. Go for quality over loudness, your scream doesn't have to be loud, you can turn the mic up, as long as it sounds hardcore. The loudness of your scream will come with time. I strongly recommend easy 1 sylable screams first I like my own summer.

When he's doin "cooooooomeeee" "shooooveeee" "the suuuuuuunnnn" "asssiidee"

Note: Kurt Cobain "screaming" isn't screaming, its aggresive pitched singing and isn't something you can reallyteach, If you can't hit those notes you can't hit them. Its like asking someone to teach you to have a higher voice. Its true with a lot of practise you can increase your vocal range, but in most cases you are pretty much stuck with what you got. If you have a crummy deep voice like scott stapp of creed lol don't expect to be doing and cobain screams any time soon.

brian mays guitar is the best. Brian May is my favorite Guitarist.

Any way. didnt you make the chees guitar Craig HExPen?

i was thinking about building my own bass. but after adding up all the stuff i need it came to about $800 which i just dont have at the moment. But maybe in the future, it sounds like alot of fun to do it.

les uses a tiny little one on the primus dvd. it sounds bloody great

your winning the radio scotland poll demo thing

good stuff
