Favorite metal singer

[KillerB]

Post your favorites!

The legend, Zetro. The best singer my favorite band has ever had. Not to say Baloff and Dukes haven't made great stuff, though.

Andi Deris

Chris Barnes - Cannibal Corpse - Innovator

Max Cavalera - Innovator

Bruce Dickinson - Best voice ever in metal

Phil Anselmo - Best stage presence in Metal, what every vocalist tried to imitate in the late 90's and 2000's metal scene.

Though maybe not 'metal' one of my personal favorites - Scooter Ward (Cold)

Some great choices already in here.

Bruce Dickinson
Ronnie Dio (We miss you)
Michael Sweet (absolutely incredible high octave range)
Geoff Tate
Corey Glover

As far a metal singers go, Dio was and will always be the greatest.

As far a metal singers go, Dio was and will always be the greatest.

He was definitely an innovator and had an amazing voice. One of a kind. A legend. RIP

It would be a tragedy to not mention this guy as one of the best ever:

KIP MOTHER FUCKIN' WINGER!

[Social Distortion]

Considering vocals, charisma and performing live, he's the man.

 

[KillerB]

And how could I forget about these guys?!

So true. Sadly missed :-(

KIP MOTHER FUCKIN' WINGER!

YES!!! Kip is fantastic. Very underrated too in my book!

 

[Social Distortion]

If you just consider vocals, this man's a complete package.

Some of these aren't metal, just hard rock...but my favorite hard rock/metal singers:

Bon Scott (AC/DC)
John Bush (Anthrax/Saint)
Ronnie James Dio (Rainbow, Sabbath, Dio)
Lajon Witherspoon (Sevendust)
Ray Gillen (Badlands)
Chris Cornell (Soundgarden, Audioslave)
Pepper Keenan (Corrosion Of Conformity)
Phil Anselmo (Pantera, Down)
James Hetfield (Metallica)
Ozzy Osbourne (especially in the Black Sabbath days)

Bruce Dickinson #1
John Bush #2
and all the rest.....

 

[Stormwatch]

Scooter? Someone listed a guy called Scooter? Let's just pretend that guy never happened. At least Kip Winger had Reb Beach in his band and knew how to hold a microphone without looking like a fucking retard.

Here's some of mine, without photos, because, let's face it, you all know who they are, unlike that cunt "Scooter".

Brucey
Halford
Ripper Owens
Chuck Schuldiner
Glen Benton
Mikael Akerfeldt
David Vincent
Quorthon
Piotr from Vader
Blackie Lawless

 

[Joecephus]

oh and even though he's kind of a douche bag, I forgot this guy....

great song...



great singer, still a douche though. Would have loved to hear him in a thrash band...

 

[DumbAss]

Heavy Devy

Mike

Vorph (Samael)

Fucking hell. Mike Patton. How could I forget one of the most enigmatic frontmen of the last 20 years.
