Attractive Male Musicians

Sign in to disble this ad
There are a lot of threads about attractive female musicians. I thought I would start one for people who like dudes (guys or girls )

If you aren't attracted to guys, please don't be obnoxious. Let us have our fun!

Post about your favorite male musicians and their music!

For me, the music is at least 60% of what makes a musician hot. A lot of these guys are really inspiring to me.

I personally think Billy Howerdel is a very expressive guitarist. His playing is impressive without having that "look at me shred so COOL" attitude that a lot of guitarists get into. And he has a very natural, sensual and sexy style. The guitar in this song does all kinds of things to me. It's just about the hottest thing ever: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkH-OyoB-6A

Alexi Murdoch is quite the cutie:

Elliott Smith wasn't really attractive in the typical sense, but his music spoke from the heart and his smile was heavenly:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzuYdUAPXxw

The only NIN album that I really love is "The Fragile." But Trent Reznor was darn fine:



I saw VAST in concert last spring, and Ben Fenton, the guitarist, really caught my eye:



Here he is with longer hair: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyhWZbl821w

I'm a little embarrassed, but Morrissey was attractive back in the day:



This is totally cheating, sort of, but Johnny Depp plays guitar, and he's too hot not to include:



I have a thing for drummers. I love the powerful, aggressive, rhythmic, physicality of drumming. And Danny Carey is one of the best:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7d7vpNvRaZo

Yeah he's a lot older than me, but still.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dh3z_...eature=related

Another member of Tool, and one of my greatest inspirations as a bassist: Justin Chancellor. I find his playing style to be really sexy, too.

Case in point: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qR6cW...eature=related





You could pretty much fastforward to about 7:30 or so for the great bass stuff (but mostly because he's shirtless ). And yes the singer is weird: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHABvBkDW_o

Here is a cover of a Tool song by the amazing (and not bad on the eyes) ToolBassPlayer. The music is hot, and he has a sexy Wal too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v20AC...eature=related

I'm done. Post your faves!

I gotta admit that Justin Chancellor is a bass stud.

Marco Hietala and Mikael Akerfeldt. What more needs to be said? Not only do they look good, they have amazing accents. ;D

Fair enough. Don't want to get my feelings hurt! LOL, I'm just kidding around.

First up, Tetsuya Ogawa.

Band leader and bassist for L'Arc~en~Ciel, formed the band 1991/2.

Big inspiration for me, has written the music and lyrics for many of the bands songs. Has also been a bassist for Creature Creature and has gone off on solo work under the name TETSU69 and just plain Tetsu and just the other week released solo work under the name Tetsuya after a three year break.

Can be seen primarily using a pick but sometimes fingers or slapping depending on the song.

From the early years


More recent


Also has a habit of playing his bass with a banana at the start of Stay Away http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2y5XPQKSbfM

As long as you don't post the Jonas Brothers, I think you'll be fine

The strange thing is, I'm 20 but I'm usually attracted to musicians who are twice my age (but not anyone from TB! XP). Haha. Famous ones, at least. With the musicians I know, I like the college guys (mostly).

If it helps I'm 23 and currently obsessing over a 50 year old Yukihiro "Chachamaru" Fujimura aka The Legendary Guitarist of Kansai (the previous guy I put up, Tetsuya, is 40).

Lead guitarist of GacktJOB (Gackt's backing band), provided backing vocals and also produces Gackt's albums too. Excellent guitarist and has a solo album but used to be Gerard, Vienna, Ded Chaplin.

He plays a Caparison Horus guitar (the reason I have one too) and loves all things Egyptian...and likes pink.

A clip of him playing
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luVU8...eature=related

And performing in GacktJOB
