Actually it never roamed my mind that this could be done, which is stupid because you're still producing (growling) a note, just slightly different.

In all seriousness, Zen of Screaming.

Me and my bandmates used this back in the day. She has a pretty impressive list of vocalists she's helped out, both with singing and screaming. Including Kevin Bacon, so you know it's good.

She teaches how to scream/growl without hurting your vocal cords, which helps tons if you want to practice for more than 2 hours straight.

That seems to echo this strange German book I found in my phone's library one day, entitled "How To Sing". Amidst poor translations it talked a lot about how many singers forced notes through their vocal chords and did permanent damage.

Yea, singing and screaming use the same muscles. If you're doing it right, there's no difference between the two at all.
