[M3RC1L3SS]

Best -

I'd have to agree and disagree with you, nikmti on Eddie from All Shall Perish... I think his new vocals are incredible, and I like how they are experimenting with different sounds.

Also,

Mikael Akerfeldt - Opeth
Brad Delp(RIP) - Boston
Galder - Old Mans Child, guitarist for Dimmu Borgir
Jamie Stewart - The Absence
Trevor Strnad - The Black Dahlia Murder
Johan Hegg - Amon Amarth

Worst -

Claudio Sanchez - Coheed and Cambria
Stevie Nicks - come on, really?
Dani Filth - Cradle of Filth
ZP Theart - Dragonfarce

 

[noodleplugerine]

Best

Steve Perry (Journey)
Garm (Arcturus/Newer Ulver)
Vortex (Arcturus/Dimmu Borgir)
Kvhost (Dødheimsgard/Code)


Worst

Alexi Laiho (Children of Bodom)
Angela Gossow (Arch Enemy)
Michael Stipe (REM)
Phil Anselmo

I like this list, though I'd add Michael Bogballe, Justin Hill, Mikee Goodman, and Khan to the best list, and also add the job for a cowboy list to worst ever.

 

[The Hoff]

I really like Christian Alvestam from Scar Symmetry, great growls and great cleans.

Same with Mikael Akerfeldt.

Also, Freddie Mercury and Ian Gillan for great tone and range

And many many more that have already been mentioned.

I personally think Mike Patton is the greatest vocalist of all-time but that's just my (uneducated ) opinion.

 

[jrf8]

Best: Warrel Dane-Nevermore

Worst- Whoever the singer for Coheed and Cambria is.

wrong, claudio is one of the best singers, especially live in the last few years.

worst-any napalm death/grindcore singer

I look down on my vox quite a bit, I do them to spite myself.

 

[jrf8]

[sami]

Chris Cornell
Layne Staley
Phil Anselmo...well Vulgar and FBD. His screams on SJR were good, but not when he does his "talk-singing-scream" stuff.

A lot of people don't like the singer of deadhorse's voice (Mike Haaga). Doesn't bother me at all, it fits the music perfectly. Fuck them, lol.

 

[Acridspasm7]

my favorites

Jens kidman- Meshuggah
Corey Taylor-slipknot

 

[CrushingAnvil]
