It was a tough decision, as I am a huge fan of all of these dudes, but I ended up voting for Aaron Marsh.

I voted for Thiessen because Two Lefts is one of my top 5 favorite albums, and I like his particular voice the best.

I expected Stephen Christian to win this by a landslide.

Also, no love for Dave Elkins, eh? :-|

Christian, although I think Marsh may be the more talented of the group.

Nate has a very powerful voice that sounds great live, so I voted for him.

Man. 3 of my all time favorites. Matt, Stephen and Aaron. I had to go with Stephen though, Matt's in second place just barely by a hair.

None they are all bad. I can stand a few a Death Cab/PS songs though so them at a push.
I can understand not enjoying any of these bands, but do you actually dislike all of these dudes as vocalists?

First of all. Gavin Hayes has the best voice in music. That just needs to be said.

Second of all. I can't believe I'm the only person who voted for Dave Elkins. I love so many of the other vocalists. But, wow.

I love Shawn's voice.
Brandon Allin
09/02/08, 10:38 AM
Yeah really not my thing at all. They all have quite a mid to high pitch and have very clean voices, I guess descended from the Brian Wilson school. I'm much more about a raspier folky/country voice or a soulful motown/gospel voice, even though I do love Brian Wilson.
Fair enough. I was just curious. Thanks for the explanation.

I agree. It was a tough choice for me between Aaron, Leighton, Stephen, and Matthew.

He sounded great when I saw them, but I had to listen to my great grandmother and mother for hours the day before, so anything would have probably sounded good.

None of the above.

Aaron Marsh falls flat live.

Ben Gibbard got my vote.

Stephen Christian has an amazing voice, but if Matthew Bellamy was up there, i wouldve voted him in a heartbeat.....should have gone with other.....lulz

the postal service sucks and the all-time quarter back was a joke, ben gibbard is a good voice, but he has no musical talent, and doesnt he look like elton john?

i think thats the guy that looks strikingly like elton john

For me, at least.

I've turned this into a series of three polls. The second poll was just posted with 9 new vocalists. The three who get the most votes from each poll will be put into a final round, so your man still has a chance!

This poll is now closed. The three finalists that will be moving on to the final round are Ben Gibbard, Stephen Christian, and Aaron Marsh. The second poll is now up here (http://absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=524761).
