Only when it's bad enough to be distracting.

The music people make isn't something that defines their talent, and that shouldn't even be a matter of opinion. But if Malmsteen is sitting in front of you playing some solo guitar and you're just gonna tell him he sucks and should learn how to play, at least you get to feel cool about yourself.

Pram - Dancing On A Star

Elizabeth Cotten - "Going Down the Road Feeling Bad"
May just also add that Pram track also sounds fantastic. A band I now intend to learn more about. And that's exactly how I think vocalists should be judged. As excellent if they make excellent music. Thank you.

Your silly argument still makes no sense. Are you telling me you won't listen to a band just because the vocalist (to you) can't sing? You miss out on a lot if you do that

It has to be good music. If I practiced 12 hours a day and lived a 1000 years I wouldn't be able to do it. I still don't respect it because it's bad.

If it has vocals and the music is good then the vocalist can sing. The proof is in the pudding.

That's not proof at all. Listen to The Pineapple Thief. The vocalist isn't the greatest in the world but damn the music is fantastic.

That makes him a good singer because they know how to use their vocals effectively. Not really that hard to wrap your head around, is it?
