my top of the pops-band would be

voc-clean: justin sullivan(New Model Army)
voc-other: luca turilli (no, just kidding)... Tom Sedotschenko (EverEve - RIP)
1st guitar: dunno
2nd guitar: dunno
bass: Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers)
drums: either gene hoglan or nicholas barker (dimmu borgir) or even Tomas Haake (Meshuggah)
a band with three drummers would be nice as well

but the music this band would produce... no idea

 

[Misanthrope]

Flea?...i...guess he...is allright

And 3 drummers? unless you are very creative and use affrican style different time signatures and rythmics it could get messy

 

[Malaclypse]

as for odd time signatures, Tomas Haake from Meshuggah is your man (check out the tablature of "the exquisite machinery of torture" on www.meshuggah.net)
of xourse, the other two are hyperspeed-drummers and can't possibly be thrown in one band. i was just curious how this would look and sound. i once played with a second drummer, this is quite funny, but you have to restrict yourself a lot.
and flea is o.k.

 

[Strider]

uh... a dream-band? interesting yet quite impossible to make: just too many guys to name!!!! I'll give it a try...

death vox: Dan Swano (million of bands)
clean vox: Ray Alder (Fates Warning)
(Mike of Opeth could do as well for both!)
guitars: Chuck Schuldiner & Jeff Loomis (Nevermore)
bass: Sean Malone (Gordian Knot)
drums: Gene Hoglan or Giuseppe Orlando (Novembre)

mmmhh... I am not satisfied... as I said, there are too many musicians for a single band!!! and I restricted to the extreme metal world...

Whats wrong with Shagrath?? ok hes a Poser, Dimmu Borgir stinks most of it actually... but he Growls fine, real Fine... and thats why i listed... dont you think thats what it counts??

 

[MacMoney]

IMO there's nothing remarkable about his growling. Just your run-of-the-mill 'black' metal growler plus he sounds almost as awful as Dani Filth (who he is trying to imitate) on PEM.

 

[Exiled]

Well thats my opinion, i dont think hes trying to copy dani filth, and i like the way he growls, Yes of course akerfeldt and stanne are the best, but shagrath isnt bad, it suits your music (wich i think is like 60% dull and boring) and in some songs sounds really great, Spellbound by the edvil, and Mourning palace are great.. Enthrone darkness triumphant i think its theyre best album, although it bores me at the 6th songs (as any other dimmu borgir albums)..
