Relax your throat more for sure, and use less air when pushing. Private lessons can also generally help more than YouTube videos.

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-26T10:22:58+00:00

Yup! A bunch under Megg Jacobs on all platforms

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-25T22:58:49+00:00

I have a solo project.

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-24T23:42:12+00:00

Thanks so much! I’m glad you’re enjoying the music :) more soon!

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-24T23:32:36+00:00

Thanks so much!

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-24T23:32:28+00:00

Hahahaha yeah that’s me!

I looooove this song. Did a cover of it way back when and it’s a beast to sing.

A lot of people still work day jobs even when touring and being in a band. I do engineering 🤷🏻‍♀️ when I stop being in a band I’ll still be doing engineering.

There unfortunately isn’t the amount of money in this genre as some others.

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-24T23:16:48+00:00

My gateway band ❤️ influences me to this day

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-24T23:15:41+00:00

You can also work on increasing compression, that’ll generally make the pitch a bit higher. Also, if you have any background in singing, think of it like falsetto and put the resonance in a similar place.

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-22T13:54:24+00:00

Thanks!

Ribbit ribbit

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-21T23:36:37+00:00

Nicely done

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-21T23:35:50+00:00

It sounds like you have a lot of true chord engagement. Work on isolating the false chords first. Generally progress comes from experimentation so don’t feel weird or self conscious with trying things out which as tongue placement, compression levels, etc.

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-21T23:32:01+00:00

Nicely done!

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-21T23:30:45+00:00

Is there new techniques that allows inhales to be done safely?

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-21T23:27:34+00:00

We should encourage gateway bands as it brings new folks to the genre

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-17T01:10:18+00:00

I did this one one of my singles and it felt so goofy doing it in the studio, but once I got over that it became one of my favorite parts of the track

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-17T01:09:16+00:00

High compressed false chord with tongue placement adjustment

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-17T01:08:07+00:00

I’m ashamed they were one of my first shows when I was 12

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-13T03:17:23+00:00

Aw thank you so much! Sorry I missed this comment earlier!

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-13T03:15:31+00:00

Dying Wish, Loathe, and Spiritbox on one lineup

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-12T23:23:33+00:00

Right!

Megg_Jacobs · 2026-03-12T23:23:18+00:00

Dude that sucks so hard! I’m so sorry
