It was their expressive sound and Layne's unique, effective and impacting voice that meshed the band together. But I have to admit, new Alice In Chains suck.

Robert Halford didn't sound so distinctive from the other metal vocalists. Pretty much a cross between Ozzy and Bruce Dickinson. Their lyrical content was cliche as metal lyrics can get.

Talent is a subjective matter I guess.
I didn't give reference to how many albums they released, just to how many classic albums they released which does make a band talented, there's a difference.

I don't see that much relation voice wise between Rob Halford and Ozzy and Bruce Dickinson came after Rob Halford and if anything Rob Halford would've been an influence on him.
