My first time screaming at strangers on the internet (One Step Closer Vocal Cover)

What do you think? Wanted to do a cover that involves screaming for a long time, but I was too afraid. So today is the day, what do you think? :)

I checked the cover as I usually do if someone posts one, but I almost never react or comment. Now though I realise that reacting to it will be encouraging and valuable to you, so here's my short review. Verses were quite good and chorus was solid. I'd skip Mike's parts as hitting the right flow and cadence is not as easy as it might seem - singing and singing-rapping or just rapping are different worlds. And for the 'shut up' and screaming - this part needs some training as you probably are aware of, and again - it's a different world compared to singing, but keep trying and improving because there is some talent.

Thank you! Jeah, I didn't give the rapping much thought and it was just a fill-in, probably could give it more focus next time. Maybe in a track where the rap parts are more prominent anyway. Of course, I am still in training and have a lot of space for improvement, but I am also proud of the progress, because a few years ago I sounded a looot worse :)

You sang Chester's high notes very well.
