John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, Elvis, Kurt Cobain, Buddy Holly? Freddie Mercury? Or someone else?

If Quorthon gave concerts, that would be him.

For now it's:
Freddie Mercury or Ian Curtis.

 

[Alex78]

either Layne Stayley, Chuck Schuldinger or Denis D'Amour(Voivod)

Non-metal - Hendrix & Jeff Buckley.

Dii Mysteriis Dom Sathanas is my second favorite. but when i heard grand declaration of war, it blew me a way. the whole vibe of the CD is just sick. Plus, Hellhammer got way better on the CD and blasphemer does some crazy shit. Also, maniac's vocals were fucking awesome in my opinion along with his talking parts like in the intro of "View From Nihil". it's, in my opinion, one of the best black metal CD's ever. it's unique, it did something unexpected and it did it well. i'll admit though, i didn't like it the first few times i heard it but once i got used to it's sound, it jumped into my Top 5 albums along with Death, Bloodbath, Zyklon, and Emperor.

it's bad and not even black metal

it's not straight forward bash your head with a rock while burning a church and pissing in a goats asshole black metal but, it is black metal, very progressive black metal. and i know i'm going to get flamed for this also but my 3 favorite mayhem cd's are...

1. Grand Declaration of War

2.it's a tied between Dii Mysteriis Dom Sathanas and... Chimera

however, i cannot stand ordo de chao

 

[mutantllama]

Roger Paterson of Atheist. I've only heard him on the demos of some of the songs on the reissue, but man he sounded good.

 

[ShredHeadJHJ]

DIMEBAG!!!

Ha ha, just kidding. Seriously.

Chuck Schuldiner is the best one I can think of. If not CS then I would make it where Jason Becker could play again... If I couldn't do that, I would kill Becker then bring him back to life My third pick would be Shawn Lane, but resurrected with a new & improved tone.
