02.21.10 | I like King Diamond but he is overrated by some people. |
8bit
02.21.10 | needs moar overrated vocalists |
eternium
02.21.10 | I don't think anyone has called Kurt Cobain or James Hetfield good singers, although they fit the music.
King Diamond is just fucking annoying imo. |

02.21.10 | "needs moar overrated vocalists"
this
you're not gonna create any controversy with this list sorry to say |

02.21.10 | Cobain's vocals were excellent, and suited the music perfectly. His voice was something different, and he had without a doubt one of the best screams in rock music. List is fail because of his inclusion.

02.21.10 | Kurt Cobain sux |
Enotron
02.21.10 | I think Kurt Cobain was great. He really did just have a really nice voice and it totally matched the music. His screaming didn't seemed forced in the slightest; just sort of seemed to symbolize what he might have been going through while Nirvana was becoming big.
I totally agree with James Hetfield, though he sounds awesome on Kill Em All. |
LeotardMessiah
02.21.10 | You're cool because you don't like Nirvana |
8bit
02.21.10 | damnit |
sleepyhead
02.21.10 | Cobain sucks i agree! other two are good though |
LeotardMessiah
02.21.10 | Why are you including Hetfield on this list anyway? Hetfield was never overrated as a vocalist. You don't hear people saying "wow that James Hetfield has such an awesome singing voice"
Metallica's music is hardly reliant on showy vocals.
fuck it you're just a moron
|
somberlain
02.21.10 | I agree with Leotard
Hetfield: not good but not overrated |
PirateSquid
02.21.10 | No, Patton isn't overrated since he's amazing and doesn't deserve enough praise for being the best contemporary vocalist ever. |
Enotron
02.21.10 | Dear MusikManiac,
DDDDDDDDDDDIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
Love,
Eno

TheWayfarerElectric
02.21.10 | This. AND MIKE PATTON IS AWESOME GO DIE BUT HE IS NOT GOOD AS YAMATSUKA EYE GOOD BYE. |
Titan50
02.21.10 | Kurt Cobain is one of the greatest vocalists of our time |
Alucard125
02.21.10 | I agree with 3 so much. |
Enotron
02.21.10 | But he receives the right amount of praise, which is mostly generated by the more afficianado type of the music listening world. |
ThePalestMexican
02.21.10 | Pretty true for all, I can't defend any of this... |
ThePalestMexican
02.21.10 | And MUZICMANIAC!
I thought we could've been friends
I don't know what to think now.... |
JWT155
02.21.10 | I don't know many people who praise Cobain's singing a lot so I can't really said he's over rated as a vocalist; in fact most people I know comment more about how shitty his vocals is then how great. |
qwe3
02.21.10 | 1 is so good but yeah 2 and three are meh |
paxman
02.21.10 | The best feature of Nirvana were Cobain's vocals. Nirvana may be overrated (egregiously so), but Cobain's vocals are not. On the other hand, the worst feature of Metallica is James Hetfield. But is he overrated? I think the majority agrees that his vocals are mediocre. |
AmericnZero02
02.21.10 | Kurt Cobain is one of those cases when just because he died at such a young age people give him more props than he deserves. I'm not saying he's bad, but definitely overrated. |
Enotron
02.21.10 | But he's not really ever given props for his vocals talents. More his lyrics, the music, his image etc. |
Emim
02.21.10 | HERE WE ARE NOOOOWWW, ENTERTAAAAAIN USSS |
eternium
02.21.10 | Kurt Cobain could not sing nor could he really play guitar.
Nonetheless, his voice fit the music perfectly and Nirvana is just one example that you don't need complex technical shit to be an amazing band.
However, his voice does fuck up a lot of live videos that I've watched. |
ihopeuchoke
02.21.10 | ^No way, Nirvana sounds great live. Unplugged from New York pwns. Cobain is not THAT bad of a vocalist... |
JulesWin
02.21.10 | muzik and palemex need to get a room |
eternium
02.21.10 | Well, Unplugged from New York is definitely an amazing music performance, one of the best ever, but I've seen certain live videos, electric ones, where he didn't sound so good. |
Urinetrouble
02.21.10 | list needs maynard keenan |
AnotherBrick
02.21.10 | saying kurt cobain sucks is just straight up retarded |
JulesWin
02.21.10 | whatever turns you on muzik |
Carnifex
02.21.10 | Cobain & Hetfield fit the music and weren't really praised as being great vocalists anyway. King Diamond just sucks. |
Thor
02.21.10 | How dare you defy the King |
ShadowRemains
02.22.10 | Kurt's voice was bad cause he was stoned half the time...and James never was revered as a terrific vocalist. |
ShadowRemains
02.22.10 | i'm not saying every vocalist who was stoned sounded bad |
JWT155
02.22.10 | This list is stupid because 2 and 3 were never highly revered vocalists in the first place to even be considered over rated. If anything list title should just be "Shitty Vocalists". |
GnarlyShillelagh
02.22.10 | Agree on all accounts |
Skybreaker
03.03.10 | Nobody raves about James Hetfield. His voice fits the music and he's a great vocalist, not one of the best in the world, but still great. King Diamond's high notes are pretty annoying and yes, Kurt is very overrated.
How about some Angus Young? |
