Hello,
So, I've been thinking for a while about all that, practicing a lot, and so that we have better communication tools. Obviously, I'm far from being the Master Screamer, so, this is a collective effort. Feel free to suggest additions or corrections.
I'll try to name things without making any hypothesis about their anatomical production. The rationale for that is that we can't make mistakes just naming things. And we won't need to change our names, ever. Though, for adoption, we can't disregard our legacy.
Again, I'm not trying to describe things, I'm trying to propose some vocabulary. It also implies redefining some terms the community uses by trying to get a fixed and common definition, hopefully not too far from what has been established so far.
Let's call by that names screams that are toneless, have very little clean voice in them, and have this heavy "vibrating" distortion.
Examples:
Then there are fuckton of possible modulations that are already well established, including but not limited to: tunnel throat etc.
This has the same heavy vibration tone as the associated scream, but with a clean tone under it.
Examples:
This applies more on high notes, sounds more like a creaky grit.
Examples:
Very creaky screams, probably high, probably not sounding chesty. They sound like a powered up vocal fry (grudge noise). I'm very skeptical that those screams can be made powerful and loud.
They sound like the voice is tight in the throat so much that it gets distorted. The distortion is predominant, the voice sounds a bit hollow.
Examples:
.======
That's what I have so far. We still need to talk about Sam Carter, when Oli Sykes sings, etc. I'll edit that post as we make progress
Please please please voice any opinion or disagreement you might have, complement that list, etc. Only that will make science go forward. I tried to illustrate that with known artists, but I might be wrong.

I’ve been trying to learn how to scream and I’ve got something but it’s very quiet and I feel like I’m just not doing it right. When I try to add projection it just kinda doesn’t work.

Giving my best crack at some lines from Soulless Hymns by TLTSOL. Bonus points if you can name the tune.

Does anyone know if there’s any special way to this kind of high but not high and sort of airy scream that people do because I can’t do it and I’m wondering if it’s technique or just a good fry scream voice (I can already scream). Some clear examples are Shawn Milke screaming in early apology, Shane Told in bleeds no more when he says “more”, “stone”, “else” etc at the end of some lines and the second dude that screams in Beautiful things are better left dead by aprils love affair when he says “please”. Hopefully people know what I’m talking about lol

Self taught i just use the growl i know and sort of do it higher with less air does it sound any good? Took me like a year to do it

I am pretty sure I can do a basic fry scream, but it doesn't sound quite like those high black metal screams. I can't figure out how to make it higher, but I also can't use my head voice at all. So I wonder if I need to practice head voice to get such high vocals.

Idk I thought it was a funny idea to get people to stay for my insta video.
Not directly scream related BUT the technique I'm using here is a combination of my fry scream, sung voice, and a technique I borrow from my false chords where I use a lot of my chest and nose. I also do this to emulate the dude from Hot Mulligan, but my voice is higher than his so it turns out more like Dillinger Escape Plan (Calculating infinity era)
I'm high sorry for the tangent.
