He seems to torture me very well with each song - I still, suffer thru it just to listen to Neil Schon's playing Yes,Perry makes me ill. Partially because the nightmare of seeing the video to SEPARATE WAYS is firmly etched and scarred in my brain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bullhead Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 Originally posted by henk I forgot Bob Dylan. Hendrix knew he couldn't sing and that if he would it'd be an embarrassment. But then he heard Bob... well, the rest is history. actually, one of Hendrix's biggest vocal influences was Dylan. to me, Hendrix's vocal style always sounded like a cross between Dylan and John Lee Hooker.

Members J2 Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 Billy Corgan has a grating voice and singing style, and he has a matching face that just begs to be punched.The guy from Our Lady Peace is annoying as well, and is off key sometimes live which just compounds the problem. He sucks!And Geddy Lee is torture to my ears.Mark Slaughter should have his falsetto surgically removed from his throat, thank God they're not around anymore.

Members shredhead666 Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 Originally posted by espdna No one mentioned John Mayer. I hope I'm not the only one who wants to punch him in the face, after only a few seconds of any of his songs... +1. Seriously annoying voice.

Members 17 Tubes Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 Originally posted by andyhumb Geddy Lee - yes - I would be surprised if we found one guy on this forum that would disagree on that one - {censored} - that voice is so {censored}ing irritating:mad: You found him. I will agree that there may be a few songs that grate...but that's what the situation called for. Like On A Farwell To Kings....his ship the Rocinante sails into the black hole and Geddy goes over the meter in shrillness. But..that is what they wanted. Tom Sawyer is irratating?Big Money?Red Sector A?CAmera Eye?I just don't see those songs as being irratating. And I can't imagine having a different voice in Rush. So yes...you found one.

It's the genre or the look that this person hated, and I bet this person you quoted has not heard more than 2...maybe 3 songs by Europe. Doesn't even know the singers name.

Members chiro972 Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 Originally posted by TWPietz37 +1 million on Geddy Lee. His voice is the reason I never could get into rush. Tyler Me too! I hear he is an amazing musician and Bassist. I wouldn't know, because I would rather have an enema than listen to his voice, so anytime I hear a Rush song begin I try to switch channels before he starts singing.When I have listened a bit, the lyrics seem very lame as well. Overly pretentious drivel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members henk Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 Add to that list any and all female pop-singers who breathe more than they sing. You know the type. They sound like they're trying to operate a phone sex line, not be a singer. I want to hear voice, not you breathing in my ear.Some of 'em may breathe into my ear anytime.

Members stratsyndrome Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 Glenn Hughes, but only during the out of control "whoop whoop" moments on stage, on record I think he sounds great.Any of the 90s to current faux male singers . . . pretty much anyone under the age of 30 . . . But me digs Graham Bonnet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about those chick singers (it started with Mariah Carey I think) that have to trill 16 notes in between the 2 or 3 that are needed in the melody line? I hate that crap. Just sing the song - I don't need the vocal exercises or the show of range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members tequila_titan Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 Any and all cookie monster, death metal/black metal/{censored} metal, grindcore, hardcore call it whatever you want to call it vocalists. Just listen to Sirius Radio Hard Attack, that's about 90% of their playlist. Good guitar playing is coming back, it would be nice to hear real singing in metal again. I know it's out there but the growling, Satan with a hairball, squeeze a Volkswagen out of my ass vocals dominates everything now. I don't see how people can tell the majority of these bands apart. How many albums of pure screaming can you make? Everytime I hear that stuff I can't help but laugh. Oh, you're sooo scary, don't put a curse on me dudes.
