Tommy Rogers of BTBAM isn't a great vocallist IMO for BTBAM. He sounds better in Glass Casket but his vocals aren't progressive enough for BTBAM's unique brand of music...

Eddie from ASP > All.

I didn't think he sang for glass casket :scratch:? I could be mistaken, haven't heard much of their stuff.

What about Eddie Vedder from Pearl jam and Chris Cornell when he was in Soundgarden? I know I'm missing some but those two are DEFINITELY not some of the worst vocalists out there.

Best: (to me) James LaBrie (I like his voice, so don't bash, it won't change my opinon) and Paul Mavisdal of Cynic (especially Traced in Air)

Worst: Scott Stapp (Creed), Tom Araya (i like the music, just its not really vocals, anyone can yell and talk loudly)

Best for me is cedric from the mars volta/at the drive in. Maynard from tool. Tori amos.

Worst, im afraid i've got to say LaBrie, his voice puts me of dream theater.

I also can't stand metalcore verse type vocals where they phrase screaming the same as someone would sing in a pop song. I hope that makes some sense ;p
