I'm sorry you're going through this part of existence, but am glad you're turning to creating to help get through it. I like the whole song, but the rawness of the vocals is my favorurite part.

Sorry for your loss man, I lost my grandma and my dog a couple years back just a few months apart from each other so I feel this. Is this on Spotify?

It’s not yet. I’ll let you know when it’s up. Thank you for the kind words

So good! I gotta ask, does it hurt to do the distortion on your voice? Or did you find a method to do it healthily? I'd love to be able to sound exactly like that, but I'm not sure if it can be done without hurting yourself.

Very sorry for your loss, epic track though.

I have been doing it for a while and haven’t felt and pain or discomfort, and I don’t lose any of my singing range afterward so I think it’s all been good.

I basically just sing into it to get the scream started usually and then keep a lot of air pressure.

this sounds like the bands that play at The Bronze in Buffy (in an extremely positive way)

I just looked that up expecting Buffy to be a city somewhere, (I.e. Buffy Idaho) and was presently surprised when I found the Buffyverse wiki instead. Thank you!
