Is Anyone Here Successfully Combating Dry Throat/ Mouth?

I have been battling some SEVERE dry mouth and throat recently. I've tried xylimelts as of today, some "Grethers" blackberry currant something or other lozenges... neither of those did much. Yesterday was good - Got some of that "Singers Spray" (the non-alcohol, pink bottle) along with some Saline Mist nasal spray and those were helpful, but I'm just barrrrely getting by. Never used to be like this....

Saw the ENT the other day - got scoped and she spotted the start of two tiny nodules, bi-lateral she said. I'm certain it's because I've been screaming wicked dry sometimes, but I just can't seem to beat the dryness - Anyone gone through something like this?

Thnx.

P.S. She said the nodules were benign and that I didn't need to change antyhing since I had no loss of voice, no change in tone or voice quality. She said people who don't even sing or scream at all get them and they can go away. Still, though - not what you want to hear as a singer/ screamer. I'm 40M, btw, for reference....

Thnx 2

Please stop me from ruining my mental health again by applying for a band and getting rejected

Not long ago, I reached out to a band who was looking for a vocalist. I didn't apply. I was done with band audition. I was hurt. Instead I only asked them, "Is it easy to find a singer who's willing to write their own lyrics? Did you receive many applicants?"

Three weeks later, they responded, "No, it's already hard looking for a singer. Even more so a screamer."

Should I try making them listen to my demo?

I'm not gonna try to fit their genre though. So in anyway, we won't match.

I think their genre is more like sing-scream type, with fry technique.

Normally that's what I do, but recently I want to go 'heavier'.

But still, should I make demos and just put myself out there again and get disappointed?

The problem with taking vocal breaks and muscle memory fading

This has happened multiple times with me, but I’m just getting sick of it because I know exactly how to do the technique safely in my head but when I do it, my muscles don’t remember the tiny coordination that I set them too while doing it and I have to rebuild it. Imagine being a person that never listened to Metal who suddenly got the vocal knowledge of Will Ramos and then attempting to do it. They would blow out their vocal folds from friction burns because the muscles aren’t used to that kind of distortion and airflow and you have to train them. It’s like going to the gym for the first time in a month and you know the proper form and technique for lifting something but your body won’t let you do it because the muscles have gotten used to not doing it.

Gostaria de ajuda pra entender qual técnica o cantor do vídeo está usando

Basicamente, o que está no título

Esse é o Lo Spirit, tem músicas autorais e posta vários covers no TikTok, acho a mistura entre melódico e distorção dele maravilhosa, queria muito aprender a cantar nesse estilo, mas não faço ideia de como me aproximar do tipo de distorção que ele está usando

Ele faz isso de maneira saudável?? Por onde começar a praticar pra chegar nesse resultado?

Sou iniciante no mundo das distorções e queria muito começar a entender melhor algumas vozes

BLACK & BLUE COVER

I've been fry screaming for almost 2 years and i'm working on a Black and Blue from BMTH Cover (the repented version), is this any good? I currently have a cold so the vocals especially later in video are a bit worse
