How to acquire a gritty rock voice?

No seriously, I can sing more or less well to softer songs like most Goo Goo Dolls stuff, but when there are segments when the voice becomes overly gritty or even metal-like, I crumble. Just normal screaming, heh, is no problem, the problem ist to actually sing while raising the volume and tone of the voice

Get someone to punch you in the balls

Whiskey, cigarettes, and screaming.  Repeat as needed.

Don't forget drugs. You're not a real rocker without 'em!

Will asprin do ?

listen to slipknot.

lol seriously. You have to be born with it i think. I can do screaming, but none of my friends can.

Try singing like Serj from SOAD first (I reccomend starting with BYOB) That's how I learned to sing all raspy, eventully you'll sing like Kurt Cobain (May he rest in peace)

By eating gritty rocks, fucking DUH.
