ROB HALFORD, ROBERT PLANT, BON SCOTT, OZZY Are Among 'Heavy Metal's All-Time Top 100 Vocalists'
- Dec. 1, 2006
|
|
Rob Halford ( JUDAS PRIEST), Robert Plant ( LED ZEPPELIN) and Ronnie James Dio ( DIO, BLACK SABBATH, RAINBOW) are among the singers who appear on Hit Parader magazine's ( cover) list of "Heavy Metal's All-Time Top 100 Vocalists" (published in the November 2006 issue). Commented the editors of the magazine: "Assembling our list certainly presented a daunting task considering the breadth and scope of the metal empire during its 35-year reign as rock's most powerful and enduring force. We tried our best not to turn this into some sort of popularity contest where only the most famous (or infamous) frontmen in metal lore were recognized. Sure, the likes of Plant, Halford and Tyler are here, but so are such oft-overlooked notables Mogg, Owens and Sandoval." The complete list — which includes such headbangin' names as Rod Stewart, Ann Wilson and David Bowie — is as follows: 01. Robert Plant02. Rob Halford03. Steven Tyler04. Chris Cornell05. Bon Scott06. Freddie Mercury07. Bruce Dickinson08. Ozzy Osbourne09. Paul Rodgers10. Ronnie James Dio11. Axl Rose12. Sammy Hagar13. Geddy Lee14. Geoff Tate15. Mick Jagger16. Jonathan Davis17. Roger Daltrey18.

Needs to be higher on the list: Geoff Tate, Freddie Mercury, Paul Stanley, Sebastian Bach, Ann Wilson, Ray Gillen, Josh Todd, Corey Taylor
Needs to be lower on that list: Axl Rose, Steven Tyler
Needs to not even be seen on that list: Kurt Cobain, Jonathan Davis, Zach Del La Rocha, Rod Stewart (WTF?), Ray Davies (WTF?), David Bowie (WTFFFF?)

Where is Warrell Dane, you idiots?
Here is mine:

4. Dio
5. Bon Scott
6. Tate / Dane
7. Araya
8. Gillan

Far too many in there that are rock singers rather than metal. The most glaring omission is Eric Adams...irrespective of how cheesy you may think Manowar are the guy has one helluva set of lungs.

They remembered to put Ray Gillen SOMEWHERE in there, although he was one of the greatest that nobody ever knew and should be higher. What an amazing vocalist. If he had lived longer I'm sure people would have realized that. It's good to see that he's acknowledged, though, especially so close to AIDS awarement day which I believe is the same date as Ray's death.
Who's in agreement?

Who the Hell even buys Hit Parader? Who writes for them? Do stores even sell it anymore? I thought Revolver and Metal Edge were shite mags that directly market towards 14 year-old's, but Hit Parader takes the fucking cake. Rod Stewart? Ann Wilson? Gavin Rossdale? Ray Davies? those jackasses from Cold, Puddle of Mudd, and Fuel?
Terrorizer, BW&BK, or Decibel should have their own top 100 list. At least they are credible.

I agree about Gillen. Just seeing him on there is a treat but 100 is way too low.
However, for every good choice like Gillen, there are choices like Fred Durst and Mike Shinoda. They shouldn't even be mentioned in the same genre together, much less on the same list...

Ozzy is a terrible vocalist. His voice fit the doom metal sound of earlier Sabbath, but that's it.
Why the hell is King Diamond number 85? He should be in the top 3!
What about Eric Adams? King, Halford and Eric all have the greatest ranges in metal.
As much as I hate Nitro, Jim Gillette should have been on that list too. Even though they were not metal, they were certainly more metal than Linkin Park. It's sickening that most of those vocalists were on a metal list. Besides that most of them are not metal, a lot of them are TERRIBLE vocalists!

What the fuck he is by far the best heavy metal singer of all time. This guy is the real fucking deal any band he is in is fucking awsome and none of his bands sound alike name me another singer on that list that has participated on an ozzfest roster with three different bands i dont even think you can name a musician. At the end of the day all must hail to Phil!

Phil Anselmo is a terrible vocalist. He may have been decent 16 or 17 years ago, but after that, probably one of the worst vocalists I've ever heard.

I was almost mad until I thought about what it was, anohter useless top 100 list that means nothing and done by Hit Parader making it even less than meaning nothing.
You hav eto laugh at Chris Cornell beating out Freddie Mercury though.
And Ian Gillan #43?
Oh it's just to silly to think baout any longer.
Fuck Shit Parader I didn't even know they still existed.

Eddie Vedder
Maynard
Fred Durst
Trent Reznor
Serj Tankian
Steve Perry (the guy from Journey, right? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!)
David Draiman
Chester Bennington
Anthony Kiedis (love the Chili Peppers, but they're not metal. Even Flea would agree that they're not metal)
Rod Stewart (WTF?)
Scooter Ward
Aaron Lewis
Ray Davies (the Kinks were closer to punk to the best of my knowledge)
Josey Scott
Scott Stapp

However the dude from Sheavy sounds dead on like early Sabbath Ozzy. All three bands are rock out with the cock out. And where the fuck is Meatloaf on this list?!

Did I just see Jonathan Davis on this list? Not only was his name on this list... HE WAS LISTED ABOVE JAMES HETFILED? I'm gonna be sick. He was also above Tom Araya, Lemmy, Phil Anselmo, Brian Johnson, and SEBASTIAN BACH? Are the creators of this list trying to tell me that Jonathan Davis has pipes bigger than Sebastian Bach's? I'm not the biggest Skid Row fan in the world, but Bas can wail! Jonathan Davis is an absolutely HORRIBLE singer! Even when I was into Korn in '95 I thought he was a horrible singer. Wow, this list lacks anything coming close to credibility.

Rod Stewart? David Bowie? Amy Lee? King Diamond ranked #85? Why are Zach De La Rocha and Mike Shinoda on this list? ALL THEY EVER DO IS RAP! Trent Reznor? I like NIN but this guy is off key a lot and his voice has no dynamic quality. Steve Perry? When was Journey ever close to metal? Why is Scooter Ward from Cold on this list? The guy sings through his teeth and is completely unoriginal in his sound. And while Robert Plant is a badass on the mic, Led Zeppelin has made it clear themselves... THEY AREN'T METAL!

Where the hell is Robb Flynn from Machine Head, Chuck Billy from Testament, John Bush from Armored Saint and Anthrax (John Bush has always been a better singer than James Hetfield)?
Or what about Matt from Iced Earth, Warrel Dane from Sanctuary and Nevermore, or even Al Jourgensen from Ministry (even though Ministry in not fully blown Metal)?
Why is Fred Durst, and the singer of Puddle Of Mudd on that list?
Just shows you how most polls are popularity contests. Even Revolver's poll is a popularity contest, and I love Revolver.
Robb Flynn never gets ranked in any magazine polls. Not for guitarist or vocalist. He is the one of the best.
Phil Demmel never gets ranked either in Guitar World, and he smokes a majority of the people that get ranked.
Polls should be based on talent, not popularity.
