ha, Fred Durst. I forgot about him...yes, his singing is horrendous. Not as bad as ANDERS' though. Fernando from Moonspell really IS awful, too...I bought "Irreligious" on a whim, and as soon as I started playing it, EVERYONE I was with started laughing their heads off the second the vocals came in on "Opium." They're so incredibly cheesy! They don't fit the music, either. Power Metal, on the other hand...the vocals fit the music like a glove, which is to say they're cheesy and as annoying as heck. Another singer that really could use some lessons was the guy from Fear Factory (was it BURTON C BELL or something?)...they were just pretty weak. Oh, in the not metal world, I think EMINEM'S singing was pretty terrible on "Hailey's Song" (or whatever it's called). I don't listen to rap, but I heard he tried singing and had to hear it. I guess at least he tried... But, THE worst metal vocals in my opinion are the "sung" parts on Children Of Bodom's Hatebreeder. It sounds like a constipated, nordic James Hetfield. I haven't heard any of their other cds, so I don't know if they're a hatebreeder exclusive, but they are WRETCHED. I don't agree with the complaining about James Labrie and Dani Filth. True, they're obnoxious, but they're definitely TALENTED. The most annoying really talented singer that I can think of in the metal world is the one from Symphony X...I really can't stand that guy. I think that the first song on "The Odyssey" (Free the Fire or something like that) sums up everything I hate about him the best out of all their songs.
The guy from Entwine sucks. He's horrible. Btw, Jonas Renkse is a great singer. Although I have to admit that on stage he's not that great.
Holy fucking shit...I downloaded that song, I nearly shit my pants when the guy opened his mouth. How is that humanly possible for a guy to sing? And moreso, why? holy god he sucks.
Ozzy. I can't understand why someone says that he is the greatest heavy metal vocalist ever. Puny squealer...
