Members PRSnotPOS Posted September 5, 2005 Members Share Posted September 5, 2005 WHO THE F*CK SAID SOAD!?!?!? SERJ rocks!! Yea... James LaBrie from Dream Theater IS pretty lame. And the fact that Mike Portnoy and John Petrucci write the majority of the lyrics for him makes him even lamer. Although James can hit a really high note so i give him credit for that... but I think he is getting too old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was listening to SOAD on the radio the other day, and I asked my dad what he thought of them and he said that the singer sounds like Homer Simpson on drugs.

Serj ain't hot {censored}, but I tell you what, if it came down to listening to Daron or having my nuts wailed on with bricks... Well, I'd have to think real hard about the latter.

I didn't like his singing at first but now don't mind it at all, at least he doesn't screech anymore like on the early Rush albums. ] Dude axl rose's voice is just high..and he has 2 voices a lower one which isnt that good but man hes high dude a little scratchy thing he does but its awesome..i wish i culd sing like him....And another thing it was the 70's/80's evryone sed Baby!!

Members DeadNight Warrior Posted September 5, 2005 Members Share Posted September 5, 2005 Originally posted by Tonemeister69 :confused: u've gotta be kidding dude Nah, he was never really that good, and these days he's just plain atrocious. After about Awake, he started going downhill pretty bad. That said, he was never really a good live singer.The latest DT DVD has some disgustingly off pitch singing (i.e. for the large majority of the DVD).

Members danyeo Posted September 5, 2005 Members Share Posted September 5, 2005 Originally posted by Tonemeister69 :confused: u've gotta be kidding dude I can't stand Jame's voice anymore. I would rather listen to Liquid Tension Experiment or Petrucci's solo stuff anyday especially with how aweful the new Dream Theater CD is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cobrahead1030 Posted September 5, 2005 Members Share Posted September 5, 2005 Nevermore- don't get me wrong, the guy has a KILLER voice, but over the course of an entire album it gets old Dream Theater- same as never more...the music is so varied, and the vocals don't really change with it Dave Mustaine- just annoys the {censored} outta me Mudvayne- singer is amazing in the studio, HORRIBLE live tho (i've seen them 3 times, never changes) Slipknot- again he pulled off some nice stuff on the first two albums, live performance was WEAK tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members VoodooChild24 Posted September 5, 2005 Members Share Posted September 5, 2005 I think Nevermore is a very very good band and would definitely conquer if they have a very good vocalist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soc_monki Posted September 5, 2005 Members Share Posted September 5, 2005 Originally posted by Kalebmation Roger Waters of Pink Floyd...I love Pink Floyd, one of my favorite bands, and I even really like Roger Waters' singing in most of their songs he sings, but he is still a very bad singer compared to Dave.Roger's voice still freaks me out, and I like the interplay Dave and Roger had back in the day. Rogers good IMO...so is Dave...oh well. ummm Limp Bizkit is a good one...sorry, Durst sucks. theyd be a decent band without him... almost any death metal band...like the music, respect what the vocal guys do, but its just not my thing...except maybe deicide...scary stuff. and hey Kaleb, im the original Advocate for Midrange Dominance...bow now, fool!

Members metalmonster069 Posted September 5, 2005 Members Share Posted September 5, 2005 nevermore's music is some of the best i've ever heard but warrel kills it. i hate his vocals, he sounds like he's still stuck in the 80s Thats a BAD thing?! Christ, some of metals best vocals came from the 80's!!! Dont get me wrong....I LOOOOOOOVE death metal, and I do dig the vocals too. But seriously, comparing todays metal bands, with, lets say, 80's thrash bands....in both era's, you've got primarily the same vocal styles being used in each one respectively.....BUT, you could ALWAYS tell a thrash band apart by its vocals alone, not even mentioning the music. Now....you got some excellent bands coming out....but the screamy / singy style? I cant tell these singers apart anymore with maybe a few exceptions (KSW, and Shadows Fall). It's not the vocal STYLE I have problem with....more the lack of originality and personality in the style. I love singers like Dio, Ozzy (when he had range), Blitz (OverKill), Belladonna, Mustaine, Hetfield (when he DIDN'T TRY to sing), Rob Halford, Ripper Owens, Chuck Billy, King Diamond, Sabastion Bach (not really as heavy as nay of these bands....but GODDAMN could he sing!!!), Jake Barlow (Iced Earth)......I could go on, but these are all great metal vocolists with original style and personality. And for the record, I dog Warrels vocals. I mean, I can see how they wouldnt be everybody's cup of tea...but he has a style that doesnt sound at all like anybody else PLUS excellent range and ability. It's a sad day when anybody who can sing is considered 'dated' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
