Who is the worst vocalist?

Ph3n0m · 31-05-2002 10:22am #1

Mine would have to be Joey Belladona (formely of Anthrax), I just think John Bush is much better

Robbo · 31-05-2002 2:06pm

That lass from Kittie.

There's something absolutely hilarious yet inherently sad about a woman trying to "metal bellow".

s8n · 31-05-2002 2:22pm

defo dave mustaine or dani filth 2 complete tossers

Bateman · 31-05-2002 2:38pm

The korn "vocalist" is pretty bad.

SYL · 31-05-2002 3:04pm

Bruce fukking Dickenson....every time I hear Iron Maiden on Kerrang TV, I have to cringe.

cournioni · 31-05-2002 4:19pm

**smacks s8n** (for the Mustain comment)

Has to be Dani Filth and that guy from Bathory, two complete no hopers. They just spew it out from the lyric sheet and thats it.

alb · 31-05-2002 5:17pm

bob dylan lately

col_nicholson · 31-05-2002 5:21pm

That Ponce from Cannible Corpse

DrunkLeprachaun · 31-05-2002 6:29pm

Fred Durst. Just proove me wrong.

Karl Hungus · 31-05-2002 7:49pm

I'm going for Fred Durst, that god-awful whinge of his is one of the most dischordant sounds in music.

However.
Dani Filth and bruce Dickinson are very good vocalists!
Both have very great range, and definetly know what they're doing.

Out of the two I'd say Dickinson's better tho.

Eron · 31-05-2002 8:02pm

Jon Davis is the "vocalist" for KoRn, fairly **** yes.... a good whiner if you ask me. Fred Durst? Well, ever since LB lost their base guitarist whatshisface, well they are completely ****e.... I mean the Fred Durst + Eminem duet for "turn me loose" BIGA MISTAKA! 2 crap singers proving their incredibly fúkin ****e lyric abilities.... well, Fredy gets my vote.

Eron:cool:

Kharn ... kidding sorry Dav !

Mustaines pretty bad alright. Dickinsons good for ballady types things.

Theres far too many to list. Anyone that can only scream a high pitch scream is woeful imho, but whatever your into....

Giblet · 01-06-2002 8:49pm

axl rose? No Fúcking way, If anything he has one of the best rock voices ever, after Robert Plant.

Worst ever: Fred Durst and the guy outta mudvayne

lordsippa · 01-06-2002 11:32pm

Guy from cannibal Corpse... and possibly ... <thinks>... Vince Neil.

To whoever said that Bruce sucked, I shall now be doing a little voodoo dance to distract you while my "associates" rob you blind! HA!

And Dani Filth is MEANT to sound like he does on the albums. But yes, live, he most certainly does suck (I'm a MASSIVE cOF fan btw).

And AXL is fantastic. So shut up.

Karl Hungus · 02-06-2002 1:40am

I listen to a lot of Black Metal, and Dani's good at what he does.
He's nothing brilliant, but he does have a lot of range.
I especially like his deep vocals, he can really pull it off great.

I mean, as far as Black Metal goes, there's FAR worse!
Maniac from Mayhem is downright WOEFULL!

Which guy from Cannibal Corpse tho, the old guy or the new guy?
And yeah, Axl Rose? Bruce Dickinson?
What's wrong with some of you!?

Must agree completely....Axl Rose is one of the best rock vocalists of all time!!!

He may be a complete wanker but, hey, we all have our faults....

And while Danni Flith may be an utter gob****é he does have quite alot of talent...

Fred Durst gets my vote....baxtard can't rap or sing...

And Liam Gallagher is also completely awful

byte · 03-06-2002 12:12pm

Yup, would have to be Fred Durst. Can't stand him at all.

I think Bruce Dickenson has class voice and sounds great with Iron Maiden. Better than the tosser who replaced him few years ago. Blaze Bailey or something.

Deathtobertie · 03-06-2002 3:44pm

The Primus singer is fairly brutal

cartman · 03-06-2002 5:59pm

fred durst is just fu*kin terrible...he has no voice just words!

Ruaidhri · 04-06-2002 9:17pm

the guy from sweep the leg johnny(dont ask)

Hannibal_12 · 07-06-2002 3:52pm

Axl Rose is the greatest without a doubt unfortunately his vocal talent is superceded by his glowing personality:D.

Oh and I hate,despise,want to kill,..... Fred Durst

MrJoeSoap · 08-06-2002 9:55pm

Tom de longe from that "Blink 182" piece of crap the kids seem to like.

You obviously don't have a clue about what a good singer really is do ye??
Bruce Dickinson was\is a brilliant singer also. Not as good as Axl.
Worst?? Hmmm... Fred Durst - do u even consider that rock?
Dave Mustaine is fairly shíte as well....

Ah Nico was great!
Especially singing other peoples songs like the Velvets ones.

She was used to fine effect in the Royal Tenenbaums too.

Moe Tucker now, much as I love her, is a different kettle of fish!
Although her version of Pale Blue Eyes rules..

All this presumably means fe<k all to Metal heads...

-ADREN- · 12-06-2002 11:48am

Dont know about bad singers, but other wise great singers I have to say personaly.

Smashing Pumpkins
Billy Corgan :
Good enough range, serious texture, great original voice, inspired by no one.

Muse
Matthew Bellamy:
Amazing range, very good texture, not completly originaly though him self and radio head dude listen to the same singer when they were younger, but I think bellamy really tops it off with serious energy, and emotion.

Guns 'n' Roses:
Dont know mush about his singing past, but its got a great range, and very original, plenty of texture.

15-06-2002 5:21pm

Fred Durst - KNOBHEAD NO.1

the again its fairly trendy to slag Limp Bizkit isnt it
the band everyone oves to hate

**** punctuation - Emily Dickinson

Oeneus · 15-06-2002 7:02pm

Worst voice vote has to go to that dude from Alcoline Trio (spelling?). It's just so damn normal, dull and flat. In fact I'm sure he sounds worse than my school's choir.

I'm surprised at what some people are saying here.

Axl Rose just kicks everybody's ass!
As does Bruce Dickinson

And I thought Dave Mustaine was really funny at first, but then again when I first heard him it was on "Sweating Bullets", but then I grew to like him. I like his non-singing voice, too.

Best vocalist ever...Nightwish!

Tarja Turunen.

Zaphod B · 16-06-2002 1:44am

Worst vocalist ever is me. Just trust me on this one.
Having said that I can play the guitar even worse.

How do you pronounce that?

Karl Hungus · 16-06-2002 6:34pm

Not entirely sure, but I've an idea.
Unfortunatly, you can hear it from my typing, so either way, yer fecked.

Oeneus · 16-06-2002 6:38pm

Do it like a dictionary. eg. hoe-moe sex-ew-al

Karl Hungus · 16-06-2002 6:47pm

No!

Winning Hand · 16-06-2002 8:05pm

Bob Dylan, if ever there was so much talent wasted by a voice that sounds like my dog in heat.

That fella from muse bugs me aswell, cant place my finger on it though.

-ADREN- · 16-06-2002 11:01pm

He may bug you, and plenty others but jesus thats a fine voice he has, live also it still sounds great.. Although he can go flat for the first time he tries to hit the high note in cave, or such other songs but he gets it then, and its just class.

Pugsley · 17-06-2002 12:21am

This is stupidly obvious,i cant believe no-one has said these guys......
Gareth Gates,Will Youngs, and Westlife

Debate ended

Oeneus · 17-06-2002 10:22am

Yes, that would be an obvious answer...providing that it wasn't in the category of Rock/Metal.

Zaphod B · 17-06-2002 2:54pm

Oeneus wtf... Gareth Gates is the ultimate metalhead... I hear he once bit the head off a prawn!

Also Westlife must be rock because whenever they're on the TV you get the desire to throw it out the hotel room window.

Oeneus · 17-06-2002 2:59pm

Sorry, my mistake.

Grunge Fan · 07-07-2002 6:05pm

**** you there's nothing wrong with Death Metal vocals. Morbid Angel's vocals rule.

I can see how people would find muse annoying (im not sure if I love them or hate them myself) but Bellamy has a stunning voice techinally speaking he is skilled far beyond most singers out there.

Fred Durst if you can even use the term "vocalist" in the same sentence is one of the worst things to ever happen to rock music.

lordsippa · 08-07-2002 9:34pm

ANY rap metaller. And any metaller who thinks they're singing by growling into a guitar and having it screwed around with electronically. Too many to note.

Amen! It sums everything up really.

Monkey · 09-07-2002 6:49pm

"I can see how people would find muse annoying (im not sure if I love them or hate them myself) but Bellamy has a stunning voice techinally speaking he is skilled far beyond most singers out there."

His sharp, loud intakes of breathe after every line are very annoying for example on their cover of "Feelin' Good"

squeezeboxwho · 15-09-2004 4:32am

Bob Dylan and Fred Durst have to be the worst ever.

Who is the worst vocalist?
