Apart from Mikael, who is your favorite vocalist?

[musicholic]

I always liked Chuck Billy from Testament. His "clean" voice had a certain timbre that was pleasing to the ears. He also has a good "death" growl.

 

[Kushantaiidan]

Either Ihsahn from emperor, or Toshi from X - Japan.

I might think of more later..

 

[BillowOfZeal]

Dan Swano
Dax Riggs
Vincent Cavanaugh
Mark Kozelek
The Guy and Girl in Low
Jeff Buckley
Nick Cave
Lisa Gerrard
Brendan Perry
Garm
Dani Filth (you got to give it to him)
Mike Paton.............................................and many more.....

He said favourite, singular.

I have to agree with Mike Patton, though.

 

[Ordeith]

Simen Hestnes from Dimmu Borgir has a great voice.
Some others are;
Garm
Ihsahn
Vintersorg
Thom Yorke
Stine Grytøyr (Female vocals on "Marriage of Heaven and Hell")

Those are all I can think of off the top of my head.

Edit: of these, Simen would be my favourite.

 

[Sullen Jester]

Speaking of Chuck Billy, has he recovered from his cancer yet? I'd hate to see Testament lose another member

 

[musicholic]

Chuck is still recovering. Their web site sounded encouraging about his recovery. Chuck Schuldiner {death} is also in recovery. There was talk of them doing a project together when both are back.

 

[Windom Pearl]

Mike Patton, surprisingly.

Explain it to me, oh ye of the jammed shift key.

 

[Hannu Mutanen]

Why, it has to be Ozzy Osbourne, of course!

It would be unfair, however, to exalt but one or two to the throne of the greatest vocalists ever.

Garm/Tricster G/Christophorus G. Rygg (Ulver/Arcturus), Carl McCoy (Fields of the Nephilim, The Nefilim) Simen Hestnaes (ex-Borknagar/Dimmu Borgir), Ike Vil (Babylon Whores), Ann-Mari Edvardsen (ex-The 3rd and the Mortal), Kari Rueslåtten (ex-The 3rd and the Mortal), Ville Valo (HIM), Robert Plant (ex-Led Zeppelin), Carl-Michael Eide/Aggressor (ex-Ved Buens Ende..., Virus, Aura Noir)... etc...

There really is something wrong with your shift key, isn't there?

Is that what they're calling it nowadays?

Ummm... it's a toss-up between Dan Swano and Devin Townsend. (special mention to Tarja Turunen)

 

[deathrider]

geoff tate of course. he is kicking ass!!

 

[Kushantaiidan]

OH! I forgot all about Dev. He is definately my second favorite vocalist. He is also a genius.
