Classically trained singers will tell you that screaming is the worst thing you can ever do to your vocal chords, but if you're into singing/screaming heavy metal or rock then it's necessary to know how to scream with minimal damage.
The correct way to scream is a technique called fry screaming, in which you control your vocal exhale using diaphragmatic breathing. Vocal fry is the noise you make when your vocal chords vibrate slowly.

he can actually scream good most vids they just tel u wot to do and expect you to do it
haha not bad guy ill have a vid in a few days... im pretty good evrything from pig sqeal and pterodactyl screechin growling gutteral growling and others
Ok so I fully understand the breathing and the over the pencil, because I do that already with regular singing. Now, the vocal fry itself I understand, but I can't seem to get the scream itself to develope. I have a nice growl down that doesn't hurt and sounds decent, but I'd like to learn to fry.
i have watched countless hours of utube videos and did exactly as they say but still cant get the false chord, exhale, or fry. I can do inhale and almost do pig squeal tho. but my inhale also sounds kinda crackly. is that supposed to happen?
false chord - alright: if you know diaphragm breaTHING, DO THAT. IF YOU DONT KNOW, DIAPHRAGM BREATHING IS WHEN YOU INHALE AIR WHEN YOUR STOMACH PUSHES OUT SO THAT IT FILLS YOUR CHEST, not your larynx. And when you breathe out your stomach should deflate and go back in. Most people breathe the opposite way, with their stomach sucking in when they inhale. thats wrong. so practice diaphragm breathing often, ex. when you're talking to friends, ior something. alright so now that you can breathe, you have to realize that your diaphragm is like a "floor" or a piston. When you force the scream out your mouth, you should be straining your diaphragm inward (the same as flexing your abs/stomach). Basically, when you force the sound out, you flex. Okay, so if you havent tried already, breathe air in while letting it feel your stomach (your stomach should automatically inflate). Then push the air out while "flexing your abs" / puklling your diaphragm in. This might hurt your head at first, dont worry, that goes away with time. Now, the sound: Go take a #$%@, and make that noise you make to push it out. Or, if you pull your diaphragm in hard enough, your breathing might automatically be false chord. Try the breathing first. the force in your diaphragm might just push the scream out. if that doesnt do it, try the #$%@ting. If neither works, keep trying either one. It takes a lot of time to figure it out. It took me about 4 months to even get a safe false chord sound. Once you get the hang of it, just keep making it higher or lower and make sure you can make it as safe for your vocal chords as possible. Hope this helps ! (:
