Most versatile extreme metal singer?

[fat bastard]

who is the most versatile singer in extreme metal for you guys. for me its either townsend or peter but some of you will probably disagree with me for both.discuss your pick

 

[skeptik]

You should REALLY have given this topic a better title, without a doubt.

I'd have to say probably Garm, even though I'm not a big fan of anything he's done besides the first Borknagar album.

i know, i need a new title? can i edit it?

 

[skeptik]

I'm not sure if you can or just Moderators/Administrators can. Try to edit your first post and look around. If not, then you have a shit title, period, end of story.

 

[Menhir]

Mike Patton, Garm, Tim Owens, Daniel Gildenlow.

 

[Zack]

Townsend

 

[Barking Pumpkin]

Most versatile? Daniel Gildenlow, Mike Patton, and Garm.

Most weird/unique? Mr. Doctor. In fact, that goes for all genres.

Between the two you mentioned, easily Devin Townsend.

 

[AsModEe]

Tim Owens, versatile?

 

[BlackMetalTyrant]

I have no Idea, maybe Tatgren, Dying Fetus's Vocalist, and Isahn

 

[skeptik]

Tim Owens, extreme metal?

Tim Owens, extreme metal?

Err...I failed to read the "extreme" part >_>

I love Emperor but really Ishan uses two types of vocals, and his clean vocals were a work in progress for quite some time.

I'll go with Garm since he has sounded like six or seven different vocalists throughout his carrer.

 

[Menhir]

Err, I forgot Matt Chalk.

Chalky kicks ass.

 

[skeptik]

He's the best singer to ever suck at writing music as far as I'm concerned.

Edit: Garm, that is.

 

[CF87]

The only vocals I like from Peter are on Bloodbath 'Nightmares Made Flesh'. The music is still a lot better than his vocals though. Personally I think his band hypocrisy is crap. I don't even like his production jobs either besides Grave 'fiendish regression' which is clear and thick as molasses. Don't remeber but he probably had something to do with the production on NMF. Dan probably made sure the production was thick so it did not turn out like over digitalized thin plastic. You can't let Peter have full control over everything. He's probably like Erik Rutan.

EXTREME METAL VOCALISTS

 

[Zack]

Common Dodens... you know who you're dealing with. What did you expect?

 

[Barking Pumpkin]

Extreme Metal vocalists suck. More points to Garm, Daniel Gildenlow, Mike Patton, and Mr. Doctor.

>_>

Death Metal's Best: Lord Worm
Black Metal's Best: Ihsahn

I'll point out again that this is the most poorly executed topic ever.

 

[Barking Pumpkin]

Did you even listen to electronic Ulver Dodens? Because you know, he had zero writing input in Arcturus as far as I know.

 

[skeptik]

I've heard Perdition City, William Black, Svidd Neger and some other one. I don't like electronic music anyway though, so I still haven't figured out why I ever listened to it.
