Axl Rose aka God Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Good luck. That's my advise. Singing isn't an acquired talent necessarily. You can take lessons but some pitches and tones can't be obtained by every type of voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewbacca Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 That's right. First of all, are you a tenor or a baritone, perhaps a bass?Axl seems to be a low tenor/high baritone, as he seems capable to reach both high and low notes.There's a lot of exercises you could try in order to achieve a wide vocal range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's either a low baritone or a bass. If he was a low tenor, his talking voice would sound more like Dio or Bruce Dickinson or Elton John. If he was a high baritone, his talking voice would sound more like Ian Gillan.That just means Axl's vocal range his huge. In TWAT alone, he spans four octaves. That's more octaves than people like Rob Halford and Bruce Dickinson have spanned in their entire lives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's more octaves than people like Rob Halford and Bruce Dickinson have spanned in their entire lives.Axl's is definetely not a bass (Johnny Cash) and sure is not a a low baritone (Phil Anselmo/ Eddie Vedder). His voice is way too smooth and lacks that strident/heavy ("bari" means "heavy") tone from lower vocal registers. (this has nothing to do with him being able to use a raspy voice to sing, raspy and strident are not the same thing).My voice is lower than Axl's and I'm a mid-to-low baritone.

Chewbacca Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Idk, man. Phil's voice still seems lower to me. I mean, he sounds like an ogre. Axl has a more human-like voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kill Devil Hill Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I can't post videos on this, but I was thinking of that Kurt Loder interview from 1990 ('91?).His voice sounds really close to Phil's there in my ears (although I do agree it's the slightest bit higher).But I have noticed that Axl's talking voice sounds different from time to time.

Chewbacca Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I know. He's got, at least, 3 different voices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kill Devil Hill Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Maybe he's a low baritone, a high baritone AND a low tenor. O_oI don't know. Maybe we'll never knownuntil he starts speaking consistently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
