What are your Top 5 bands with the best VOCALS?

[Theow593]

I'd go with

1. Theset www.myspace.com/thesetband (http://www.myspace.com/thesetband) (Listen to A Man Of Industrial or 12:34)
2. The Format
3. Anberlin
4. Fall Out Boy
5. The Wedding

EDIT: How did I ever forget Dallas Green? I'd place him between FOB and the wedding.

[sonnylover]

I think my list goes like this (I'm gonna get alot of critisizm(can't spell) about some of them):
1. FROM FIRST TO LAST (SONNY MOORE)
2. AFI (DAVEY HAVOK)
3. SILVERSTEIN (SHANE TOLD)
4. EVANESCENCE (AMY LEE)
5.FALL OUT BOY (PATRICK STUMP)

[karenxcore]

Damn I was going to say From First to Last.

[iHATEapril]

Silverstein ;(.

[ActorInThisPlay]

1. Explosions in the Sky
2. Mono

[sonnylover]

Damn I was going to say From First to Last.
were you? what's your top 5 fav singers?

[iHATEapril]

She was actually just going to say FFTLx5.

[CrazyRockGirl]

Ah, this is a good one. I would have to say
1.) Green Day-Billie-Joe has such an awesome voice
2.)AFI-Davey has an even better voice
3.)Evanescence-I am not such a huge fan, but Amy Lee's is really good
4.)The Academy Is-William Beckett, I love his voice!
5.) The Offspring-I dunno, there's just something about Dexter Hollands voice, it's just so different, so unique, I love it!

[lawofaverages]

1. Explosions in the Sky
2. Mono

3. Pelican
4. Caspian
5. Red Sparowes

[MIKEY_HORROR]

1 Butch Walker
2 Emery
3 Queen
4 The Honorary Title
5 Jeff Buckley

[iHATEapril]

[sonnylover]

She was actually just going to say FFTLx5.
hahaha thats what I shoulda done...LOL

[ActorInThisPlay]

3. Pelican
4. Caspian
5. Red Sparowes
I think I would put If These Trees Could Talk in there instead of Red Sparrowes though...

[espguitars723]

Robert Plant(led zeppelin)
Cedric BIxler( mars volta/ at the drive in)
claudio sanchez( coheed and cambria)
geedy lee(rush)
thomas erak when he sings( the fall fo troy)

[Theow593]

Sonny has an original voice that seems to disregard all enunciation. He's a great singer though, Note To Self is a good vocal warm-up.

[lawofaverages]

I think I would put If These Trees Could Talk in there instead of Red Sparrowes though...

yeah, Red Sparowes vocals werent so great on the new album.

[sonnylover]

it does...but I have to say the best song on that CD is Ride the Wings of Pestilence...I'm obsessed with that song...but I don't like the part in the video when he throws up.It's kinda gross

[ActorInThisPlay]

yeah, Red Sparowes vocals werent so great on the new album.
yeah not so impressed...

[sonnylover]

red sparrows...don't think I've heard any of there stuff

[Tyler Dumont]

The one-two punch of Chris and Roger from LTJ

"gritty" enough at times for fast punk complete with the classic "woahs" and yet soft and melodic enough for melodic gems (science of selling yourself short, last hour of the last day of work,p.s. shock the world)

hurray.

them and Patrick Stump. period.

oh and cant forget Mark/Tom

I just love it when two voices compliment each other so well.

[summerstars19]

1 Butch Walker
2 Emery
3 Queen
4 The Honorary Title
5 Jeff Buckley
While I do agree with all of these, I will especially say :highfive: for Butch Walker.

[BGP]

I think Jim Ward has one of greatest voices

[PDon11]

Robert Plant(led zeppelin)
Cedric BIxler( mars volta/ at the drive in)
claudio sanchez( coheed and cambria)
geedy lee(rush)
thomas erak when he sings( the fall fo troy)

Geoff Rickley ( Thursday )

Jesse Lacey ( Brand New )

Chris Stickney ( Stutterfly + Oceans Apart )

Good choices, though I've never heard the Exponents.

cheers. the exponents are a great band who hit their stride in the 90's. they are a great rock band with a pop twist & by pop i don't mean fall out boy (no direspect to the band), think rock/pop as in the same way the beatles or the kinks created. the front man, jordan luck, is one of the best in the business, with lyrics that will play over in your mind over & over again, once ya've heard them a couple times. worth a listen mate

A lot of my fave bands of all time aren't goping to be on this list, since it's just bands with vocalists i love.

None More Black. I love Jason's voice!! In all his bands, but probably most of all in NMB (Well, until the OnGuard album drops). Melodic, yet gruff, yet strangely beautiful. http://www.myspace.com/nmbmusic

Smoking Popes.
Ingredients
1 cup beautiful crooning voice.
2 cups happy, upbeat pop-punk.
1 cup love.
1 cup heartbreak.
A dash of ironic modern-rock guitar solo.

Place beautiful crooning voice over happy, upbeat pop-punk. Mix, while gently sprinkling dash of ironic modern-rock guitar solo. Alternatley pour equal parts love and heartbreak. Continue mixing until well blended. Serve loudly, while smiling intently.

http://www.myspace.com/smokingpopes

Owen. Mike Kinsella. I don't need to say anything else. www.myspace.com/mybandowen

Darren Hanlon. When he sings, it's like he's all of a sudden your best mate. The very Australian accent. The wit in what he's singing. The relatability to his words and voice. The saddness. The happiness. It warms my heart. www.myspace.com/darrenhanlon

Glassjaw. Daryl's vocals have always gripped me. In the way that, in Glassjaw, he takes his vocal melody's and goes to notes that you wouldn't expect him to go to. If that makes sense. I've always liked that about his vocals. You don't know where he's going to go next, but you can't wait to find out. www.myspace.com/glassjaw

Lagwagon/Bad Astronaut. Raw, honest and real. While still having a beautifully melodic voice. The emotion he can convey is amazing. www.myspace.com/lagwagon www.myspace.com/badastronaut

The Robot Ate Me. Ryland Bouchard's voice is so haunting. The first time i heard it, i was transfixed. I didn't do anything else until he had stopped singing. The tone he sings in. The accent. The all too human mistakes he makes. Everything about it is so intriguing. www.myspace.com/therobotateme

5. maroon 5

[CellarGhosts]

A lot of my fave bands of all time aren't goping to be on this list, since it's just bands with vocalists i love.

None More Black. I love Jason's voice!! In all his bands, but probably most of all in NMB (Well, until the OnGuard album drops). Melodic, yet gruff, yet strangely beautiful. http://www.myspace.com/nmbmusic

Smoking Popes.
Ingredients
1 cup beautiful crooning voice.
2 cups happy, upbeat pop-punk.
1 cup love.
1 cup heartbreak.
A dash of ironic modern-rock guitar solo.

Place beautiful crooning voice over happy, upbeat pop-punk. Mix, while gently sprinkling dash of ironic modern-rock guitar solo. Alternatley pour equal parts love and heartbreak. Continue mixing until well blended. Serve loudly, while smiling intently.

http://www.myspace.com/smokingpopes

Owen. Mike Kinsella. I don't need to say anything else. www.myspace.com/mybandowen (http://www.myspace.com/mybandowen)

Darren Hanlon. When he sings, it's like he's all of a sudden your best mate. The very Australian accent. The wit in what he's singing. The relatability to his words and voice. The saddness. The happiness. It warms my heart. www.myspace.com/darrenhanlon (http://www.myspace.com/darrenhanlon)

Glassjaw. Daryl's vocals have always gripped me. In the way that, in Glassjaw, he takes his vocal melody's and goes to notes that you wouldn't expect him to go to. If that makes sense. I've always liked that about his vocals. You don't know where he's going to go next, but you can't wait to find out. www.myspace.com/glassjaw (http://www.myspace.com/glassjaw)

Lagwagon/Bad Astronaut. Raw, honest and real. While still having a beautifully melodic voice. The emotion he can convey is amazing. www.myspace.com/lagwagon (http://www.myspace.com/lagwagon) www.myspace.com/badastronaut (http://www.myspace.com/badastronaut)

The Robot Ate Me. Ryland Bouchard's voice is so haunting. The first time i heard it, i was transfixed. I didn't do anything else until he had stopped singing. The tone he sings in. The accent. The all too human mistakes he makes. Everything about it is so intriguing. www.myspace.com/therobotateme (http://www.myspace.com/therobotateme)

Yeah, i posted 7 :-p
Right you are, sir! None More Black are fucking amazing, and I love Jason's voice as well. Very unique and stylistic. Smoking Popes pretty much own, and Joey Cape (Lagwagon/Bad Astronaut) has a wonderful voice. Like the breakdown/quiet part in "Automatic" off of Resolve where he sings real low and soft, it's almost haunting, and then he can do a really good melodic-punk voice (see: Razor Burn, etc)

Good call on all those. The ones I know anyway haha. Haven't heard the Robot Ate Me or Owen yet.

[El_Jeffe]

Most of these lists make me wanna shoot myself but.

1. Queen
2. Beatles
3. Stevie Wonder

5. John Mayer/Trio

so close to making my list, great voice. nice list mate

[CellarGhosts]

cheers. the exponents are a great band who hit their stride in the 90's. they are a great rock band with a pop twist & by pop i don't mean fall out boy (no direspect to the band), think rock/pop as in the same way the beatles or the kinks created. the front man, jordan luck, is one of the best in the business, with lyrics that will play over in your mind over & over again, once ya've heard them a couple times. worth a listen mate
Cool, cool. I'm always looking to find new bands to dig, preferably ones not many people have heard of, so I'll definatley have to check these guys out. Thanks for the reccomendation :)

I love Mike Patton at all- but I think only 3/4 of this thread- i.e. the people who think the bands with best vocalist formed in the past five years

[CellarGhosts]

I'm now glad I've never heard a NOFX song.
Nofx are nothing like any of those other bands listed. They could kick each band on that list's ass on any day of the week. Seriously, don't let someone who likes Korn give them a bad name like this.

[CellarGhosts]

Haha yeah, I love Mr. Bungle. I definatley wouldn't say that Patton is the best, but he is up there, and does have a ton of style, character, and originality to his voice. Personally, I love the song "Squeeze Me Macaroni"

[CellarGhosts]

NOFX have become a little contrived but there still a great band.
Ehhh..yeah. I still love em though haha. Of course, their best stuff was done back in the day (Punk In Drublic, ...Thanks For All the Shoes, White Trash, Two Heebs...) but they're still a consistently great punk outfit. I thought War On Errorism and Wolves In Wolves Clothing were both really good records, although they have their weak spots.

Wait wait wait. I'm almost sure that it's not wise to bash someone's list when everyone's ears are pleased by a different euphoria or whatnot. BUT, since you've decided to instigate, here goes. First off, Cove does have a nice voice. HOWEVER, Anthony's voice was a hundred times greater than Cove's AND Cove digs himself a hole in that 75% of the songs off of their self-titled are attempted to be sung in Anthony's footsteps. It's not even HIS voice; it's a sub-par gimmick of Green's. I'll admit its nice, when he doesn't attempt to imitate! Second off, Craig's voice is amazing. Period. I won't even explain this. Assuming that you've even HEARD of The Higher, I'm going to assume that you had ear plugs in or something. Seth's voice is so unique and melodic that it someone bothers me that you can call it "Shitty". As for Catherine, he has/had one of the best screams in the hardcore business today, being able to hit the low guttural notes as well as the high-pitched screams. Sorry if you have a very picky taste in music. Dallas Green. Its fucking DALLAS GREEN. That's it.

[HangsLikeHeaven]

The only legit one on that list is Dallas Green, who even though I like AOF, should just go solo period.

I agree. dallas should just head the other way, as much as I like Alexisonfire. When he's present in any aof song, it makes it that much better.

Dude you need to go to some Thursday shows, his voice has improved drastically in the past few years. He has definetly shed his "tone geoff" nickname. He can sing right with Running from the Rain and Autumn Leaves Revisited as if it were right off the record.

This isn't my top 5 of ALL time, otherwise i'd definitely have roger waters or freddie mercury, but currently i've been amazed by these vocalists:

1) Hayley Williams- Paramore (Honestly, that girl can sing. Paramore is going to explode this year)
2) Sherri/Stacy Dupree- Eisley
3) Adam lazzara- Taking Back Sunday
4) Aaron Gillespie- Underoath/The Almost
5) Jesse Lacey- Brand new

[Thirdway]

Blink182 - Tom Delonge and Mark Hoppus love these two love their voices love this band
Copeland - Aaron Marsh
From Autumn To Ashes - Ben Perri and Francis Mark ,although Ben left the band two awesome vocalists and a great combination ,Francis is now the lead vocalist
Cauterize - Jesse Smith
Waking Ashland - Jonathan Jones

I know most won't agree with my list but thats not my intention these are my favourites
also for me great vocals does'nt neccesserily mean that the vocalist has to have an amazing voice
it means that it sounds special or combined somehow with the music in a way that i love.

some more vocalists that suppose to be there imo Casey Crescenzo ,Dallas Green ,Nic Newsham
and Ryan Ogren from Dont Look Down especially in Start The Show album.

I broke the rules a little bit of this thread but all of these imo worth the mention.

Glassjaw (Daryl Palumbo)
Neutral Milk Hotel (Jeff Mangum)
Dance Gavin Dance (Jonny Craig)
Circa Survive (Anthony Green)
Deftones/Team Sleep (Chino)

[Meine Knochen]

I'll just have to pick my 'recent' ones:
Death From Above 1979
GlassJAw
Courtney Love
Brody Dalle
Silversun Pickups



Such fucking hot voices.

[Chromefox]

Marianas Trench do acapella four part harmonies live, and are spot on, so I'm going to have to go with them.


I'm noticing that a lot of bands/artists being listed are artists whose vocals are definitely not pristine and powerful, but are still awesome for the imperfections and uniqueness.
