Melissa Cross - and you thought vocals lesson is gay...

"When people ask me what style of singing I teach, I say, 'Anything passionate'". - Melissa Cross



Dave , introduce me to Melissa Cross some time ago... saying that he wanted to get her DVD to learn how to sing... hmmm.. i thought that was gay... that's until I saw the list of satisfied 'students' of hers... here's some of the 'students'

All That Remains, Arch Enemy,Candiria,Chimaria,Cradle of Filth,Every Time I Die, From Autumn to Ashes, Full Blown Chaos, God Forbid,God or Julie,Haste the Day, Ill Nino,It Dies Today, Killswitch Engage, Kittie,Lamb of God,Melissa Auf der Maur,Shadows Fall, Sick Of It All,SliPKnoT,The Showdown,36 Crazyfists,Throwdown,Trivium,Underoath ,Unearth,Walls of Jericho

ehehe.. how's that for a vocals lesson?? if you know any of the band , you'll know that it's not the normal singing.. it's more of screams , growls , .... you know... metal stuff...

Anyway , Dave wanted to get the Zen of Screaming 1 & 2.. i'm not a vocalist.. but i'm damn interested to know how the hell these people can really scream their lungs out everytime they perform...without fail... that's interesting...

Here's some videos taken off youtube.com...





And below is an interview with Angela Gossow from Arch Enemy and Melissa Cross (interview by metal injection) ... at the end of the interview , there'll be the video clip of Nemesis by Arch Enemy from the album , Doomsday Machine...enjoy...
