Kevin can be pretty nuts (in a rad way) live. So emotional sometimes when he gets screamy or raspy.

Geoff Rickly
Anthony Raneri
Dustin Kensrue
Jesse Lacey
Matt Berninger (not at all apart of "this scene" but i'll toss him on here since you did)
Matt Embree
Jim Adkins


plenty more but those are off the top of my head

Frank Turner.

You've only listened to those albums 5-10 times?

OUTRAGE!

Eric Nally is my number one for sure.

I agree with pretty much all of your choices. I also love Forrest Kline and josh fsomething from you me at six.

spencer chamberlain is so underrated. anyone who thinks otherwise should listen to Disambiguation. he fucking DESTROYS the vocals on that album.

Yeah, even if Yellowcard's not in your top 5/10 favorite pop-punk bands..I feel like his voice sort of just sticks out from that era for sure

1. Anthony Green
2. Jordan Dreyer
3. Kyle Durfey
4. Jesse Lacey
5. Geoff Rickley
6. Ben Gibbard
7. Soupy
8. Nate Reuss
9 . Cedric Bixler-Zavala
10. Aaron Marsh (changed it from Casey Crescenzo)

Something like that, anyway. In no particular order.

Jason Butler?

His voice really shines on the acoustic version of When You're Through Thinking, Say Yes. The ending of "Hide" is just so damn good.

Stephen from Anberlin has always impressed me live too.

I tried to weigh live/studio similarly ... but it was hard with bands I've never seen live, and with artists' I've seen live with zero production value (Acceptance) that killed it vs having a better sound system.

Ben Gibbard and Matt Berninger are killer vocalists and lyricists.

Nate Ruess. Nobody comes close for me.
I also think Aaron Marsh has a stellar voice.

Keith Goodwin
Nate Ruess
Conor Oberst
Aaron Marsh
Andrew McMahon
Ace Enders
Justin Pierre
Cedric Bixler-Zava
Anthony Green
Matt Pryor
