Hi all,
I am trying to compare a sound but I cannot find the right band I can compare it with.
In other words, could you please name a singer that you hate or that you think has a bad voice.
Throw in a freebie and name a bassist you hate, as well.
******
After reading a couple of posts. Maybe some of you took it as a "band" to hate. I was calling for a "singer" to hate based on his vocal skills, but we all have different standards on what is good or bad.
For instance:
Good voice:
- Scott Stapp: "Singer" from creed. IMO he is a great singer on most of his popular songs, plus most of songs from first album
- Anthony Kiedis: "Singer" from RHCP. IMO he is a great singer for that type of music for all of their slow, fast, rock and funk styles
- Bono: I mean who doesn't like Bono?
- Celine Dion: I also don't like Celine Dion, but she has a great voice, therefore no hate.
Bad voice:
- Geddy Lee: of "Rush", I always thought the singer was a girl. Like one of those annoying brats that says "nanana I'm gonna tell my mom you did this". Bully girl.
- Bob Dylan: of "Bob Dylan". I like tamborine man but other than that the singing is all over the place. Great songwriting but voice I am not so sure.
Mention a singer you don't like, not just the entire band.

As far as SOLO ACTs go: Brittany Spears, Jessica Simpson, and MOST of the new female country singers with that over-the-top exaggerated Southern "twang" (like that super annoying chick that sings that one about being a country girl saying "hey y'all and yee haw")...and Bob Dylan (great writer, HORRIBLE vocalist)

But mostly GnR.
And the only bassists I've come close to hating are Mike Anthony and Duff McKagen... but then I heard an interview with Duff and he frankly sounded like a very nice guy - not great talent, but an awfully nice cat. So no hate for him (though he still isn't much of a bassist, in my opinion)
