Runner up goes to Maynard James Keenan of Tool.
But if the question retroactive I'd say Chris Cornell, or Geoff Tate of Queensryche if you don't think Soundgarden is metal. Neither sings nearly as well as they used to - not bagging on them, it's just true.

| | | | James Hetfield definately has the best voice he deserves to be winning. He is definately my hero... that is alive... |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: New Jersey | | | My vote for best/favorite has to go to Devin Townsend. The guy not only has a powerful singing voice, but his screams are the absolute most awe-inspiring things I've ever heard. And with each album he does, he explores new avenues towards utilizing his voice and his many other talents.
Hevy Devy for the win! The guy is a genius mad scientist and a musical force to be reckoned with. His voice knocks me on my keister every time.

| | I wish I could sing like Rick Danko. | | Join Date: Jan 2004 Location: Shreveport LA | | | Dio is the best on that list easy.
But for the best metal vocalist today I would have to say Warrel Dane of Nevermore. He's AMAZING!!!!! |

Moderator for EHX Forums | | Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: Houston/Nacogdoches | | | Dickinson and Halford are THE metal singers in my book. I don't consider AC/DC to be metal, more hard rock. Bon Scott is right behind Daltrey and as the best voice in hard rock, IMHO.
Ozzy's voice is really one dimensional to me, not to mention he can't even sing anymore. Dio is good too though.

Anders Friden of In Flames, Jason Wisdom of Becoming the Archetype, Howard Jones from KsE, Phil Labonte of All that Remains... more of the modern bands. These are just a few, I'm torn to pick a 'best'. usually though someone with a nice growl and a lot of power and intensity, but who can also actually sing sometimes.

The man can sing well, though.
