It will just click someday as long as you keep gaining musical experience. Don't you dare to give up. I play guitar/bass and do death/black metal vocals. That was never a problem for me, of course at first its a little harder with complicate riffing. When trying to sing normally (with notes and stuff) it is complicated as hell, but I practiced and I'm getting better at it each day. I just find challenging songs slightly above my level and try to beat the shit out of them.

It helps to be able to count the beat while you're playing sometimes. So, if a line comes in on 2 or 4 youll know what you're doing. Also it can be boring if everything comes in on 1 and 3 all the time.

A hint a friend told me regarding this issue: successfully playing(a complex riff) and singing together means you don't really think about these 2 things separately. After a lot of training it just becomes intuitive, automatic, so the two things don't interfere with each other. Makes sense?

I play the bass and sing in one of my bands. It's hard at first, especially if you try to play difficult stuff, but training makes everything easier.

This may sound strange, but i promise that it helps with metal eventually. LEARN BOB DYLAN SONGS!! He uses very complex lyrics that make you have to think hard to remember, and the guitar parts are just as difficult. Old Bob Dylan songs really help you coordinate yourself, and eventually you can apply these mental techniques to metal.

Right now I'm able to play and sing simultaneously Seek&Destroy, Whiplash, Ace of Spades, Pity The Sadness, For Whom The Bell Tolls and Noce Szatana.  Training really does help!

On tuesday I managed to sing Worth Fighting For by Judas Priest at my rehearsals place. Obviously it went pretty well because it was just me and a drum/bass backing track  Then some guy came in and told me I have to clear out because I wasn't coming in my band's usual schedule..
