James LaBrie is in fact, a good singer, he can hit the notes...but it would be better if he didn't sing high and didn't have an annoying singing voice.

he hits the notes in the studio records good. he has an awesome technique he can pull of in the studio but he sometimes fails badly live. and also, he imo doesnt have a good voice (it's not horrible tho, i own 5 DT albums or smth)....and yes, i'd be a good thing if he sang an octave lower sometimes

he has an awesome technique he can pull of in the studio but he sometimes fails badly live.

That's true for sure but then again who doesn't?
Just to name a few: Mikael Akerfeldt(ever heard him singing A smart kid with Porcupine Tree?), James Hetfield, Maynard Keenan(well not THAT badly but he isn't perfect either) and millions of other singers...
The problem with DT and LaBrie is that they're perfectionists and that it stands out more than in other bands.

 

[Kenneth R.]

if JLB sang with DT the way he did on his latest solo album, there'd be a lot less complaining. his lower range is a lot nicer sounding imo.

 

[Saber Rider]

Yes it is and the last two albums were heading right into that direction(with one or two exceptions per album).
I can't wait to hear what they do on Octavarium.

i've kinda grown out of DT, and i really have no desire to hear labrie's solo album.
