A while back I posted a topic on the Three Metal Tenors. Origionally I was going to post a topic on favorite vocalists but realized everyone would have Bruce, Halford, and Dio on their list so I did the other one before I posted this one.

One of the major aspects of metal that I love is the vocals (being a vocalist myself). So apart from the above mentioned voices, what are some of people's favorite vocalists (not a comprehensive list but maybe a top 10 minus the Three Tenors).

My all time favorite vocalist is Zach Stevens from Savatage. Also on the top of my list are these: Sir Russel Allen (one of the most versatile vocalists I've ever heard), Jone Lande, James LaBrie, Roy Kahn, Lance King, Mike Bakker (Shadow Gallery), King Diamond (his fallsetto is just sick!!!), Andi Deris, Tobbias Sammet, Michael Akerfelt (Opeth), Eric Clayton (Saviour Machine), Matt Barlow, Tim Owens, Hansi Kürsch, and the list goes on and on............

I would have to say, based off my own personal tastes of voices that
really stick with me and when ever I hear it I go "oh, YEAH!" 🤘:

Jimmy P. Brown
Guy Ritter
Roger Martinez

Those would be my top three, all-time favorites.

Brian Johnson too, never get tired of that raspy voice!

Well, Ronnie James Dio and Bruce Dickinson would probably be in my top 10 list, so excluding them ...


1. Geoff Tate (he's actually been my favorite vocalist for years)
2. Roy Khan (Kamelot)
3. Mille Petrozza (Kreator)
4. Tom Angelripper (Sodom)
5. John Schlitt (Petra)
6. Liv Kristine/Alexander Krull (Leaves' Eyes)
7. Les Carlson (Bloodgood)
8. David Defreis (Virgin Steele)
9. Eric Adams (Manowar)
10. Eric Clayton (Saviour Machine)


those are just metal - but for nonmetal I'd say:

1. Peter Murphy
2. Dave Gahan (Depeche Mode)
3. Robert Smith (The Cure)

IronAge, your list RULES!!! I'm embarrassed that I forgot Ralf Scheepers, Don Dokken, and Messiah Marcolin! 3 of my all time FAVES!!! But when you're doing a 'top 10' it's hard to cram them all in. These 3 would easily be in my top 20 though.

Great call on Ian Astbury too.
