Controversial opinions on metal

[Kara-Shehr]

Dio on the first Rainbow album gets my vote for best metal vocal performance.

I 2nd that

 

[Mort Divine]

Wino is a survivor that's for sure,he's up there with Bobby Liebling as far as street cred goes.He's certainly lived the life.

Yeah, and his voice just echoes that.

When it comes down to it I don't think I've really heard a more metal vocal performance than Dying Inside.

Might not be as high pitched, flashy, or anything but just pure emotion.

 

[JontRevolting]

Yeah Wino is great,I love his vocals and you're right about the emotion conveyed through his voice.I mentioned Daniel Heiman before but my all time favourite vocalist would have to be Dio.Heiman was unbelievable in Lost Horizon though.

[Saparmurat_Niyazov]

Reagers is not one of metal's best vocalists. Unique =/= best.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

TIM BAKER

NO

srsly, he never leaves his ridiculous high-pitched rasp thing. He's entertaining but not even top 5 SoCal USPM material.

 

[no country for old wainds]

in both cases they perfectly suit the material, in ways that are totally counter-intuitive and genius at least in baker's case. reagers is just fucking psychotic and unhinged sounding, love it.

The singer from Manilla Road has a really ugly and hard to listen to voice. The melodies he sings as well as his pitch are just fine, but I hate his tone.

 

[JontRevolting]

Sounds like his nose is blocked but I like him,it's certainly an acquired taste.

 

[WNxScythe]

^^^who is that in your sig.

Blasphemy. What a great photo. ROSS BAY GRAVE

 

[challenge_everything]

They look like they're on a golf course. "Oh look there's my ball!"

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

yeah total country club.

 

[JontRevolting]

They're either looking for their golf ball or their mate who's fallen down that hole.
edit: I would love to see the looks on the well to do country club style folk when these fine chaps walked through the door.

My uncle is buried in that cemetary. He got the plot in the 2007 sell-off of additional plots they got. A week later he died in a car accident. Guess it all worked out.

 

[JontRevolting]

That's probably the most famous cemetary in the world,although probably only by metalheads.Sorry to hear about your uncle.

 

[gundamterran]

O_O Slayer's career is buried in that cemetary.

I used to hate his voice, but when I noticed how pitifully rudimentary his riffcraft was, they could have been Dio for all it mattered. Little more than a cover art band.

 

[Addo_Of_Nex]

Can you please just fuck the fuck off already? Nothing you say makes me think you deserve to be living, and I'm sure Mark the Shark would abide.

 

[Krow]

Oh fuck you.
