What are your favorite vocalists in bands you like? Least favorite?
Driving in to work today and I was listening to a Built To Spill song and realized that I wished his voice was different. I like BTS despite the fact his voice drives me crazy sometimes.
It got me thinking of other voices I dislike, and more importantly – voices I do like.
Do you have bands you like mostly because of the voice? How about bands that you probably would like if you could get past the voice?
Here’s a short list I thought of….
Ignore the fact that my music is ancient and outdated.
Vocalists I like:
- Isaac Brock (Modest Mouse)
– Black Francis/Frank Black (Pixies)
– David Lowery (Camper Van Beethoven/Cracker)
– J. Mascis (Dinosaur Jr.)
– Mark E. Smith (The Fall)
– Jeff Mangum (Neutral Milk Hotel)
– Joe Strummer (The Clash)
– Ian Brown (The Stone Roses)
– Peter Murphy (Bauhaus)
Bands I like even though I don’t like these vocalists:
- Doug Martsch (Built to Spill)
– Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails)
– Guy Picciotto (Fugazi) Ian MacKaye is good.
– Nico (Velvet Underground) Nothing wrong with Lou Reed.
