Bands that would be better with a different vocalist?

[TheInsane]

looks like u are a fan of the higher pitch clean vocals, I can't stand em honestly, and I wouldn't listen to maiden if the guitar wasn't so amazing.

Agreed. I actually love the first IM album they did with Blaze. Easily the best of their discography according to me. Bruce destroys a lot of what could be potentiallyy great about IM for me.

 

[Episteme]

Silencer goddamn

Weirdly enough, they suit the music.

 

[DEATH_TO_THE_FALSE]

Sentenced is another one.

 

[Tennyson]

Bruce Dickinson must be seen live to be thoroughly appreciated I think. The guy puts on a great performance even in his (50)s?

I can see that

I agree with this. Despite me not liking Bruce's style much he is indeed awesome live. Granted its been years since I saw them now but I saw them about 4 times from the reunion with Bruce and onwards and live the band has always delivered and Bruce works the crowd so well.

That's Paul on the first Maiden album.

 

[DesperateCry]

He means the first one they did with Blaze, not the first overall.

The guy in Vader kinda sucks. And witchery.

 

[TheInsane]

That's Paul on the first Maiden album.

As someone said I meant the first album IM did with Blaze i.e. "The X Factor". I love that one. Dark, progressive and less of the cheese and no siren vocals. My kind of thing. Unfortunately "Virtual XI" didnt hold up.

- Periphery
The music is great, but these clean vocals... eugh.

- Annotations of an Autopsy
With their latest album, they took a more traditional death metal approach. The vocalist changed his style to a more traditional death metal style, too. However, he's still not good enough for the band.

 

[IamstheblackWizards]

Kivimetsan Druidi.
They have a female vocalist that totally sucks, I love the other singer's growl though.

And dragonforce, but oh wait, they split.

 

[JGMetalhead]

Vader.

BOOOOOO!!!!!!!! SO FALSE


Nevermore needs to replace their singer SOOOOOOOOOO BADLY.

 

[-CC-]

well well look who came back...V5 go grab the lube

 

[JGMetalhead]

I had a feeling you among all people would give me a welcome back in such a spontaneous manner. I was also expecting Krow to post the Dr. Evil image once again.

 

[Lateralus14]

No one's gonna agree with me here but imo Asphyx's vocals could be better.

 

[JGMetalhead]

Martin Van Drunen? Seriously? Listen to the band more.

 

[Dak]

Nevermore needs to replace their singer SOOOOOOOOOO BADLY.

Agree 100%, forgot about them. I can't even listen to them, and Jeff Loomis is phenomenal.

 

[JGMetalhead]

I blame Warrel Dane.

 

[Badbird]

Nevermore needs to replace their singer SOOOOOOOOOO BADLY.

Agree.

 

[waif]

Old Arch Enemy. The music was pretty good (if overly wanky) Gothenburg melodeath, a style I am fond of, but it's fucking hard to listen to the old stuff because of his shitty vocals.


See?

That said, Angela was hardly the answer, and musically they're pretty shit nowadays,

 

[RedFox742]

I will add COB to the list of bands, I would like better with a different vocalist.

Me too, but I'd want melodic vocals, and that wouldn't go down with the fanbase (exhibit one: Amoral).
