I'm on record as being a fan of @carcosabc I'm also on record as always being dismally behind on releases. So, I had no Idea Carcosa was dropping a new deathcore album until about a week ago. Once I found out about "The Axe Forgets, The Tree Remembers", I knew I had to do a full album review. This album is, spoiler alert, top notch. The songs are deep and thoughtful while remaining heavy. The vocal performance is a phenomenal balance of power and aggression. The whole experience passes back and forth between rich ambience and crushing arrangements.
If you are new to Carcosa, you've Probably seen Andrew Baena and Johnny Ciardullo making fuggin hilarious metal memes. But they also release a ton of content showing massive amounts of musical talent.
And that's it. This description is kinda lame but it's midnight and I'm exhausted. But, it's worth it. Amazing album.
Check out the singles from The Axe Forgets, The Tree Remembers

I've been performing, recording, and teaching extreme vocalization for about six years and I've never had a chance to really dig into KPop. But Veronna, our clean singing instructor and professional singer of over two decades, decided it was time to start sharing the genre. For a first time reaction to KPop, I think Golden by KPop Demon Hunters was an excellent choice! So many opportunities to talk about singing tips, metal vocalization (believe it or not!) and a TON more!
If you're into reaction videos made by vocal coaches for both new and experienced vocalists, be sure to like share and subscribe!

Igorrr is a band that I often forget about. Not because they aren't good. No, They're phenomenal! Always weird, always odd, always amazing. This is my first time hearing Daemoni and it was awesome to hear something fresh and new. Why? Because being a metal vocal coach and teaching people how to scream keeps me laser focused on deathcore most of the time. But god, there is SO much more out there and bands like Igorrr are a great example of how extreme vocals, false cord screams, and heavy riffs don't have to be tied to breakdowns and blast beats.
In this video I'll teach you how to false cord scream and give you tips and tricks for getting power behind your metal growls. We're also going to talk about how important it is for us to reach across the genre aisle and learn from other styles, even if we don't use them ourselves. This video is part reaction, part vocal analysis, and part vocal lesson!

I haven't talked about Ice Nine Kills in a HOT minute! About a year if I remember correctly! But any chance to do some vocal analysis of Spencer Charnas is one I should take. The new song "The Laugh Track" is honestly exceptional. Powerful fry screams, dominating false cord, gritty singing, beautifully connected cleans, and a genuine love for music and horror that makes the entire thing stand out.
In this reaction video I'm gonna give you a ton of vocal tips on how to scream safely, how to sing high notes to open up your head voice, and I'll even give tips on how to shape your vocal tract to scream better and more powerfully than you have before!

This vocal analysis of "To Rid Myself Of Truth" by Signs of The Swarm vocalist Dave Simonich turned into more of a bro hangout, and I had a blast. Dave gave me a bunch of his deathcore vocal tips and techniques, but we also got in depth about the industry, the grind of being a vocalist, dealing with haters, and of course, plenty of hot takes about Deathcore, Metal Vocals, and more.
Signs of The Swarm's recent album, "To Rid Myself of Truth" is possibly their heaviest yet. I absolutely love where the band is going, and even though this vocal analysis and reaction video turned into more of a chill podcast, it's a wellspring of awesome info. Don't miss it!

This Deftones song wasn't at all what I expected...and I'm kinda glad! I thought it would be something heavy and angry but infinite Source by Deftones is a soothing, calming and...dare I say...artsy journey! The soft moments are perfectly set with the more powerful, full voice belted sections to create something contrasted but never jarring. Frankly I'm a bit thrown off, but in a VERY good way!
What you’ll learn in this video:
• The difference between chest voice, speaking voice, and belt voice
• Why belting requires less air than you think
• How studio processing like compression changes what we hear
• Why this song is a great fit for baritones and even a challenge for basses
• How to avoid wasting years training the wrong way with the wrong coach
• Practical tips for trying belting safely without hurting your voice
If you want to take your singing further, I offer one on one lessons and membership options at Kardavox Academy. You’ll get direct feedback, personalized exercises, and support between sessions!

Floor Jansen is simply on another level. In this reaction and vocal analysis of “Energize Me,” I dive into her After Forever days and explore how her voice already carried the power, precision, and artistry that would later define her era in Nightwish. Floor is not only a great singer but one of the defining voices of symphonic metal, a once in a generation talent whose technique and passion are unmatched.
What you’ll learn in this video:
• The brilliance of Floor’s register blending between chest voice and head voice
• Why her belting remains powerful yet never strained or shouty
• How subtle vocal effects and textures add depth to her performance
• The impact of vocal health, training, and life changes on long term vocal strength
• What singers at any level can learn from Floor’s technique and career longevity
As a professional vocal coach and performing artist, I can say with confidence that Floor represents the gold standard of modern vocalism. She shows what happens when rare talent meets lifelong dedication, and every performance feels like a masterclass in control, artistry, and emotional storytelling. If you want to develop your own voice with the same kind of control and freedom, you can book lessons or join memberships through Kardavox Academy. Links are below.
Let me know in the comments which After Forever songs I should cover next, and share your thoughts about Floor’s journey from her early years to her legendary status today.

Lorna Shore has built their reputation on ferocity and technical precision, yet this song feels like an outlier. It is raw, emotional, and almost vulnerable. As an experienced vocal coach who teaches extreme vocals, I am fascinated by how Will Ramos channels intensity into something that feels deeply personal while still holding onto the extreme edges of his sound. It is a performance that demands respect, but it also raises big questions. Is this the future of Lorna Shore, or is it a bold experiment that stands apart from everything else they have done? Should the band lean further into this emotional territory, or is their true strength still rooted in the relentless brutality that first defined them? Is this still deathcore, or is Lorna Shore dipping into a new niche of metal music?
What you will discover in this video:
• A breakdown of the vocal techniques shaping this performance
• How Will Ramos balances aggression with vulnerability
• Why this track feels different from the band’s established sound
• My perspective as a coach who has trained countless vocalists
• The open ended questions about where the band is headed next
I want to hear your thoughts. Does this emotional approach feel like the right evolution for Lorna Shore, or do you hope for a return to their earlier sound? Share your take in the comments. And if you are ready to explore your own vocal potential, visit www.kardavoxacademy.com

I've been teaching extreme vocals for over five years and have had thousands of students. In this video I take my favorite method and show you how to do high metal vocals without the pain and strain. There are dozens of ways to high some nasty highs, if not more. Thankfully, I'm here to teach you how to achieve high screams without damaging your voice! This metal vocal tutorial will show you how to scream safely. Here are some vocal tips to help you on your journey to mastering what is often referred to as the false cord high scream (I have my thoughts on that term but I'll save it for another video). This method has helped me live, on tour, performing overseas, and given me all the power and easy I needed across multiple studio albums, Demos, and EPs.

What you’ll learn in this video:
• How to reach your head mix voice and create power without extra volume

This was such a fun one. I sat down with Alex from Vianova to dive into their brand new album and all the wild vocal choices behind it. Vianova are a newer band but they’re already turning heads in the metal world with a sound that blends deathcore heaviness, jazz, soul, and fearless experimentation. Their smart genre fusion sets them apart, and Alex’s vocals are right at the center of it.
We talk harsh vocals, the goat scream, gutturals, false cord, fry, and even how the live approach shifts from what you hear on the record. Along the way I throw on my vocal coach hat and break down why these sounds work and how you can start building them safely.
Here’s what you’ll get in this video:
- A breakdown of Alex’s unique vocal style on the new record
- How to mix grit with pitch and keep screams healthy
- Why some screams need to stay loose and loud to actually work
- A closer look at gutturals, goat screams, and the Scooby Doo trick
- Real talk on false cord vs fry and why terminology gets messy
This is history in the making. Amy Lee, Poppy, and Courtney LaPlante on one track. Three powerhouse voices. Three completely different artistic worlds colliding. As a vocal coach, singer, and songwriter, I could not resist bringing you my first-time reaction and full vocal analysis of what may be one of the biggest song drops of the year.
Here is what you will discover in this video:
- Why Amy Lee’s voice still carries the same gothic beauty that changed rock forever while sounding richer and more powerful than ever
- How Poppy bends genres and expectations, using her voice like performance art that defies labels
- Why Courtney LaPlante’s raw and human approach makes her stand out in today’s polished metal scene
- The vocal techniques at play including larynx placement, belting, and false vocal cord adjustments
How to apply these techniques to your own singing no matter your level
Fans of each of these artists know how much they mean to their respective worlds. Amy is an icon of resilience and emotional depth. Poppy is a surreal innovator who thrives on unpredictability. Courtney is a beacon of authenticity who reminds us that imperfection is sometimes exactly what makes music powerful.
If you were as blown away as I was, let’s keep the conversation going. Check the links below for lessons, resources, and ways to grow your own voice. Tell me in the comments what part of this collaboration hit you hardest and what I should react to next.

False Cord tutorials? Fry exercises? Why not something else?! Check out this method for getting the nastiest, sludguest, gurgliest lows you never thought possible. Or maybe you did, i don't know. Either way, this has been my tried and true method for getting into the deepest darkest depths of my voice for over a decade... and you can do it to! This will take time, it will be hard work, and there are no magic tricks or methods. But hard work and dedication is a fast-track that everyone has access to. You just gotta choose to tap into it.

I’ve said before that not every Lorna Shore release has been my cup of tea. I respected the artistry, but sometimes it just didn’t grab me the way I hoped. This song completely changed that. I adore it. I have to eat some crow here because this is everything I want out of a Lorna Shore track and more. Will Ramos is operating on another level, and breaking down his performance felt like both a masterclass and a celebration.
Key takeaways in this video:
• Why this track made me a believer again in just how special Lorna Shore really is
• How Will Ramos balances raw chaos with precision and dynamics
• The consistency of his distortion and airflow, and why that gives him so much flexibility
• My approach to replicating some of his nastiest high screams ( Even though I do it differently )
• What this song teaches about creativity, vocal storytelling, and compositional intent
If you want to learn how to build your own screams safely and powerfully, I teach one on one lessons and offer an e course called False Cord Fundamentals. Check out kardavoxacademy.com

I have been teaching for over 14 years, but I still light up like a kid in her first vocal class when I discover a voice as magical as Aurora’s. In this video I dive into her song Cure For Me and explore the incredible blend of vocal technique and pure artistry that makes her so unforgettable.
What I adore about Aurora is how she feels like a little fairy from the forest and at the same time a total powerhouse of a woman. She is playful and whimsical but also commands the stage with strength and control. Her voice flips effortlessly between chest and head registers, her larynx play colors every phrase, and her sound somehow stays delicate yet commanding. Watching her perform is like watching vulnerability and power hold hands, and it is just mesmerizing.
What you will learn in this video:
How Aurora’s “flipping” creates a magical, agile sound
Why her blend of chest and head voice feels so seamless and natural
How larynx position changes tone and expression
Tips you can use to recognize and practice these techniques yourself
Why Aurora embodies both adorable charm and artistic strength in her singing
If this is your first time here, welcome to Kardavox Academy. My channel is all about making vocal technique fun, approachable, and inspiring. I love showing you how singers like Aurora create their sound and how you can apply the same tools to your own voice.

The ferocity, aggression, and grit he brings to his voice are unmatched, and he delivers every line like he means it. Many people know him from his devastating work in Black Tongue, a band that blends bone crushing heaviness with haunting atmosphere. His ability to shift between suffocating lows, biting mids, and blistering highs is part of what makes his style so unique, and it was incredible to break that down in detail.
In this video we cover:
• How Alex keeps evolving as a vocalist and avoids sounding the same from album to album
• The technical secrets behind switching tones and placements mid phrase
• Why delivery and emotion matter more than just hitting the note or sound
• How to stay healthy while pushing extreme vocals to their limit
• The creative choices behind Castigation Choir’s jaw dropping breakdown

Together, they create a tapestry of sound so rich and dynamic it feels like stepping into another world!

I can’t say enough about Floor Jansen. She’s one of the most complete vocalists I’ve ever heard. Not just technically, but emotionally, stylistically, and artistically. Her control, range, versatility, and the intention behind every phrase are what make her truly world-class. She doesn’t just sing the notes, she shapes them into something alive. Watching her perform feels like getting a private masterclass and a soul-to-soul transmission at the same time. She’s a gift to the vocal world, and I’m in awe.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
How Floor seamlessly shifts between chest, head, and mixed voice
The truth about vibrato and how to develop it safely and naturally
What your vocal category means and how to expand your range
The secret to powerful high notes without vocal strain
Why mixed voice is the “smart” way to sing and how to recognize it
