The greatest frontman of a band ever ?

[Gutter Chris]

My pick is Jason Navarro

Hes an animal

Axl James and freddie are all Good choices as well and if we are going mainstream id say that is the contest right there add in Mick and diamond dave if you want it between 5

And who fuckin picked that cunt from Oasis no one likes that shit or that guy. I guess its easy to stay relevant in england when you gotta sing we dont look back in anger so often though

What a fucking idiotic conclusion. God, that Q magazine is useless, whatever it is.

The greatest frontman ever are Ozzy, Mike Patton, Bruce Dickinson, Brian Johnson and Iggy Pop.

 

[-Nada-]

Josh Homme is pretty solid over the last 15 years, check out Them crooked Vultures with Jon Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin), Alain Johannsen and Dave Grohl playing live.

But calling someone the greatest is way to deep into personal preference imo.

Some "great ones" are def.:

Freddy Mercury
Robert Plant
Rod Steward (during the Faces)
Mick Jagger
Iggy Pop (Stooges)
Bryan Ferry
Prime Axl Rose
Jim Morrison
Kurt Cobain (if you like it or not)
Siouxsie Sioux
Debbie Harry
And, and, and.

 

[ObamaPhoneLady]

Jim Morrisson for me.

If Freddie Mercury isn’t the first person you think of, it’s over for you.

 

[tru3f4n]

how is it not Mick Jagger? so they are basically going with someone that's bigger then the band they play in

On the other side of the coin - I think I saw New Order in Milwaukee back in '91.

It was like watching people go through rape counseling basically.

 

[ObsoleteSoul]

I'm not really a fan of Queen but I can't think of anyone with the same charisma and presence as Mercury. Plus the dude could sing his balls off

Anyone who says he isnt top 3 is insane.

I would say Jagger is up there, alongside Axl too.

Fuck yes. Saw him in PiL and drove the audience nuts. Saw him get knocked off the stage on the Sex Pistols Filthy Lucre tour. He fell like six ft on to concrete and jumped back up on stage like it was nothing.

20) Joe Strummer

Saw him twice - once in the Clash and then with the Mescaleros 20 years later. He was so fucking awesome.
