Storm In A Teacup
03.18.21 | Fozzy although they still aren't that great of a band without their shitty singer. |
Egarran
03.18.21 | Mastodon |
claygurnz
03.18.21 | lol I knew 4 was gonna be here |
ReefaJones
03.18.21 | He might actually be the worst of them all yeah |
Deez
03.18.21 | Mastodon'
good shout.
Nero di marte
Helmet (I still like it though) |
Deez
03.18.21 | Also Rush is a great shout. Was having this conversation a few days ago with a huge Rush fan |
MrSirLordGentleman
03.18.21 | Geddy Lee is an awesome singer |
ReefaJones
03.18.21 | Geddy Lee having such shit vocals makes me sad because everything else about that band is perfect pretty much. |
cordwainerbird
03.18.21 | thank u for putting flaming lips and megadeth on here ur right and u should say it |
Deez
03.18.21 | Geddy Lee is an awesome singer'
Stop that none sense |
cordwainerbird
03.18.21 | vocals make even (especially) rust in peace unenjoyable for me because the contrast between the incredibly well done instrumentals and vocals take me out completely which sucks because that album has SO much amazing shit going on |
ArsMoriendi
03.18.21 | Les Claypool's voice makes the band
Billy Corgan and Thom Yorke are fine, just nasal |
Deez
03.18.21 | I haven no problem with RIP vox. They annoy me more on other records. |
cordwainerbird
03.18.21 | interesting cuz im the opposite |
cordwainerbird
03.18.21 | (can very much stomach Dave's vox on Peace Sells for example) |
ReefaJones
03.18.21 | Billy Corgan sounds like a mosquito flying in my ear |
cordwainerbird
03.18.21 | yea agreed i like, can't listen to smashing pumpkins ( / flaming lips) at all and i wish i could because all the stuff besides the vocals is interesting and cool
this list is def making me realize how important vox are to making music enjoyable for me lol |
claygurnz
03.18.21 | SP are a top 5 band all time for me - I know his vocals aren't good but I dunno they fit the sound. |
hel9000
03.18.21 | Yeah I couldn’t picture anyone else singing for SP, his vocals can be annoying but they’re iconically annoying imo, if that makes sense |
Deez
03.18.21 | Yeh to go with the annoying music
Makes perfect sense |
garas
03.18.21 | I was so damn sure I'll see a Megadeth here. |
Deez
03.18.21 | Yeh to go with the annoying music
Makes perfect sense |
ReefaJones
03.18.21 | "his vocals can be annoying but they’re iconically annoying imo, if that makes sense"
Doesn't make sense to me. His vocals are annoying and the band would sound better with a different singer |
claygurnz
03.18.21 | Feel like most people can still appreciate Siamese Dream, the shoegaze sound kinda buries his vocals more. On later albums they're more exposed. |
ReefaJones
03.18.21 | good one |
Deez
03.18.21 | BOOM |

03.18.21 | Metallica
Yeah |

03.18.21 | 'Nah Hetfield is great'
Good one |
claygurnz
03.18.21 | 'Nah Hetfield is great' (2) |
ReefaJones
03.18.21 | Really don't see what's so bad about him. Hetfields singing is really inoffensive to the ear. |
Deez
03.18.21 | Spoken like a Rush fan would of Geddy |
ReefaJones
03.18.21 | Hetfields tone falls into the normal human male register.
Geddy doesn't sound like a woman or a man. He sounds like a chipmunk high on helium. |
garas
03.18.21 | "Dio era Sabbath."
This gave me cancer. |
Deez
03.18.21 | 'Normal human male' or 'middle of the road soulless heavy rock vocals'
|
Deez
03.18.21 | Gonna get hate for this but Early Glassjaw, Come at me, |
ReefaJones
03.18.21 | Middle of the road doesn't equal shit though. I could see you arguing he's mediocre though I'd still disagree. |
Deez
03.18.21 | It does to me yo
"WOOOAHWOOOOOHHH YEAHHHHHH"
Urgh....
Im obvs tlking 2000s on btw |
garas
03.18.21 | > dio era sabbath, annihilator, celtic frost

03.18.21 | @Deez
Who's thinking about post 2000s when talking about Metallica? |
Deez
03.18.21 | Great point
Me
Here
|
ReefaJones
03.18.21 | While personally not a fan of Dio's style of singing he's objectively a great singer. It's just silly to claim anything else |
ReefaJones
03.18.21 | @Deez
pls don't say you haven't listened to anything else by Metallica but their post 2000s stuff |

03.18.21 | Listen to S&M2. The music may be lame, but Hetfield is a good vocalist. |
Deathconscious
03.18.21 | "WOOOAHWOOOOOHHH YEAHHHHHH"
It always makes me laugh when i hear him go "whoooaooooh nooo" right after, like which is it, yes or no, make up your mind. |
ThyCrossAwaits
03.18.21 | My only contribution to this is that Primus is 100% pure garbage and if I got the chance I’d punch Les Claypool in the fingers |
JayEnder
03.18.21 | He hits the notes but the notes themselves are gay |
ArsMoriendi
03.18.21 | "My only contribution to this is that Primus is 100% pure garbage and if I got the chance I’d punch Les Claypool in the fingers"
This is the worst music-related comment I've seen in 2021 on Sputnik |
JohnnyoftheWell
03.18.21 | Delete Radiohead and add the Smashing Pumpkins again |
ArsMoriendi
03.18.21 | Tbh I don't get what's so irritating about Corgan's voice? It's nasal, but that takes like 1 listen though Siamese Dream to get used to |
Storm In A Teacup
03.18.21 | Gay notes are the worse |
BookoftheFallen
03.18.21 | manilla road- crystal logic is a great album with some terrible vocals. |
CalculatingInfinity
03.18.21 | Barely any of these are bottom-of-the-barrel vocalists, Megadeth live and Corgan are down there though. |
JDubb
03.18.21 | Hear ye on 4, 5, and 9 |
Trebor.
03.18.21 | list is cringe |
rage11111ro
03.18.21 | I sort of disagree on 4,5 and 9 and not trying to make an opposite comment to jdubb, noticed the coincidence after I wrote it. Did not hear half of these anyhow, this list won't change this |
TheNotrap
03.18.21 | Iron Maiden (Bayley years) |
MrSirLordGentleman
03.18.21 | Blaze is a pretty cool vocalist, though he's certainly no Dickinson |
CalculatingInfinity
03.18.21 | He is good outside of Maiden, in Maiden not so much. |
bigguytoo9
03.18.21 | I HIGHLY agree with Vektor hahahahaahahahhaha. |
Slugboiiii
03.18.21 | Radiohead would be shit without the vocal style that Thom has. |
protokute
03.18.21 | what's wrong with Wayne Coyne's voice tho? |
Funeralopolis
03.18.21 | Agreed fully on Vektor, Rush and Megadeth.
Death's vocals are honestly pretty damn underwhelming. |
Sevengill
03.18.21 | "Mastodon"
Came here to say this. They have THREE shit singers. |
ian b
03.18.21 | needs more prince daddy and the hyena bc lol yall boomers lose your shit at raw/unconventional vocals |
MrSirLordGentleman
03.19.21 | I suppose I'm on the minority regarding Rush. I love Geddy's high pitched vocals
Yes, he does sound like a goat, but I love it |
RogueNine
03.19.21 | Van Halen would be so much more tolerable without DLR. |
ReefaJones
03.19.21 | I forgot Judas Priest. Will replace Radiohead with them. Horrendous vocals |
alamo
03.19.21 | priest????? are u insane |
cordwainerbird
03.19.21 | good idea |
cordwainerbird
03.19.21 | i do love the vocals on the title track of painkiller and they can get serviceable on the other tracks but it's also like, all in all not good |
ReefaJones
03.19.21 | @alamo
You have to be insane to enjoy Halfords vocals |
alamo
03.19.21 | i dont care about the t/t but his vocals on songs like hell patrol and rock hard ride free literally make my ears cum literally |
BAT
03.19.21 | 80 comments and no one was scummy enough to bring up red hot chili peppers, soo my vote goes to rhcp.
limp bizkits my follow up |
rockarollacola
03.19.21 | Matt Heafy's clean vocals are probably the most mind-numbingly bland in existence. Part of the reason I hate modern Trivium comes down to the fact his vocals are so fucking generic.
@BAT - RHCP are a shit band with a shit vocalist. |

sixdegrees
03.19.21 | Can’t think of any |
Avagantamos
03.19.21 | Klas Rydberg's vocals aren't bad, but I think Johannes Persson's vocals sound so dry and hollow, it gets on my nerves a bit |
ReefaJones
03.19.21 | "1 is the best prog band ever and the vocalist rules."
No his voice sounds like he has a cold and a piece of steak stuck in his throat |
conesmoke
03.19.21 | Disagree on 2,3,4,5,8 and 10. The vocal tone suits the music imo. |
JokineAugustus
03.19.21 | "No his voice sounds like he has a cold and a piece of steak stuck in his throat."
Lol wth are you listening to. |
Kompys2000

I like Gentle Giant. i just wish the singer did not suck hard |

MrSirLordGentleman
03.19.21 | lmao at Judas Priest in here
Dreamer Deceiver is one of the greatest showcases of a stupidly wide vocal range out there |
Dedes
03.19.21 | Dreamer Deceiver is fucking operatic man. Definitely one of Judas Priest's best songs imo.
Victim of Changes tho is fucking ooooomph |
deathofasalesman
03.19.21 | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
Get Low
03.19.21 | Every thrash band that does clean vocals with the exception of Anthrax (yeah I know Anthrax sucks blah blah blah fuck off) |
Deathconscious
03.19.21 | "some jimmies were rustled"
Wow, i havent seen that expression in so long. |
Sabrutin
03.19.21 | The main vocalist of Gentle Giant can get annoying at times but the other one with the mellower/sweeter voice is great
Geddy rules |
Deez
03.19.21 | 'Cult of luna'
OOF. Well played. If wolfe sees this heads will roll. |
ReefaJones
03.19.21 | @Sabrutin
Obviously talking about the lead singer yeah. He sounds like Kermit the Frog |
AlexKzillion
03.19.21 | Really depends on when and in what context were talking Geddy. Dude's great on the nearly all the studio albums, immaculate on the first couple live albums, but nearly unlistenable live starting around the 90s. I can def see why some hate his vocals tho, chances are I'd hate him too if he wasn't my first exposure to music. |
AlexKzillion
03.19.21 | Smashing Pumpkins, Mastodon, Blink-182 would prob be my top 3 for this |
ReefaJones
03.19.21 | Blink 182 is a shit band though |
JKing92
03.19.21 | I don't think I'd call them a "great" or even "good" band, but I think I'd like Neutral Milk Hotel quite a lot more if Jeff Mangum wasn't there. |
Titan
03.19.21 | in all seriousness, fuck you for 2 reefa
but geddys vocals are pretty stellar from Permanent Waves through Counterparts.....his tone is the absolute best on Roll The Bones |
ReefaJones
03.19.21 | Geddy Lee has the same vocal tone as Beetlejuice from Howard Sterns wack pack |
MrSirLordGentleman
03.19.21 | he hits difficult high notes and stays on tune
not liking his voice isn't the same as being a bad singer tbh |

TwigTW
03.20.21 | I knew Rush would be here ...my favorite description of Geddy lee's vocals is, 'cat with tail caught in a fan.' |
TheAntichrist
03.20.21 | get the fuck out of here for 9 you heathen |
ResidentNihilist
03.20.21 | It's not so much that Geddy's a bad singer it's that he's god damn high in the mix. |
EoinCofa
03.20.21 | Isaac is Modest Mouse; though he is not technically anything special as a vocalist, I can’t imagine Modest Mouse any other way. Love them |
EoinCofa
03.20.21 | P.S. Rob Halford is an f’n amazing vocalist |
BlazinBlitzer
03.20.21 | I mean, The Brave Little Abacus singer is technically pretty far down there, but they made 2 of the greatest emo albums ever so I can't complain. |
Sevengill
03.20.21 | re:CoL "I really want to like this band, but then he starts screaming."
I mean, it's NeurIsis post-metal. Everybody kinda just shouts, but I'll give that CoL have especially monotonous vocals. |
BookoftheFallen
03.20.21 | Melvins could use a better singer. |
Sabrutin
03.20.21 | In all seriousness I find it understandable to dislike Geddy in the 70s because of the rough style he used, but he got a lot smoother from the 80s.
"Obviously talking about the lead singer yeah. He sounds like Kermit the Frog"
I enjoy him most of the time but he does have some really tough moments, like the middle of Experience (though the mix doesn't do him any favors there really) |
Titan
03.20.21 | Sabs dude, it's not like he's playing sick ass basslines and the synthesizer as he's singing....oh, wait
Without question one of the best musicians of all time in the rock / hard rock genre |
Egarran
03.20.21 | >I mean, it's NeurIsis post-metal. Everybody kinda just shouts
I am afraid you are right. I wish they would embrace growls and screams, but that may just be my advanced age talking. |
Sagacious13
03.21.21 | 2 and 8 are no surprise, I love Geddy but I'm a huge Rush fanboy and I definitely get the criticism lol. strong disagree with 1 and 9 but (especially on that album for 9) I can still see why you would say that. overall I like it |
BookoftheFallen
03.23.21 | Why I’m hasn’t anyone mentioned Anders from in flames? He is terrible. |

garas

Changing anything about the Melvins would be a huge mistake.
