Craziest and Best singers of all time
 

I personally believe the craziest award goes to none other than

Attachment 4247

Who else is crazy or good?? I like James LaBrie, but that's just obvious I guess.

tyondai braxton!

David Yow is my Jesus Christ

it's GG Allin

/thread - seriously. there's absolutely no point in debating or discussing this claim. if you don't know or understand why GG Allin is THE answer to the once a season question of craziest singer then you should educate yourself.

craziest....maybe....best no fuckin way

Costes is as crazy if not more....at least when he shits on stage he eats it

:rofl:

Best?

Wesley Willis... who was schizophrenic. Maybe not the best singer of all time but from a medical standpoint he had crazy street cred.

Syd's pretty crazy it's debatable though whether or not he's mentally ill.

I should have been more specific lol, by crazy i was referring to craziest lyrics or craziest singing style.

best, yeah that's definitely debatable, but crazy... no contest.

and.... where did Costes get the inspiration to eat the poo on stage??? at this point options are rather limited when your stage act revolves around shocking people. regardless of what you do it will either be 'something GG did first', or 'one of the few things GG never got around to doing before dying' either way, still revolving around GG. ;)


and even with the new qualifications, lyrically, Allin still makes Patton seem like a nice boy. (and i'm a HUGE Patton fan).

that's exactly why i chose Tyondai



WHOAH EY OH!

oh, and Klaus Dingers singing on lila engel is... interesting, but i like it.

does anyone else TOTALLY hear Marylin Manson's 'The Beautiful People' every time they hear that Battles tune? i kept trying to convince friends to cover the Manson tune for a long time and they hated the idea, then turned around and tried telling me how amazing this new tune was - they didn't like me pointing out the similarities hahahaha

Hahahaha what the heck sounds like there about to play a bad cover of The Beautiful People.

so i'm NOT the only one hehehe :D

oh, i know, it's similar, but i don't think any of the members of battles are manson fans. the singer's into classical music and the rest of them are into classic rock, and other post rock.

i'm not a manson fan either but i heard that song and that's what immediately sprung to mind. but i like the vocals in the battles song better :D

Ya I agree Dave, the singing, floor tom seems to be tuned the same... it sounds like a steal to me.

yeah it's kind of hard to pretend like it's not a ripoff of sorts. fans or not, you would have had to TRY (hard) to avoid hearing TBP in the late 90s. i have a really hard time believing no one in the band or involved with them noticed the similarities.

ultimately i'm no Manson fan either, i just recognize a killer groove / riff combo when i hear it, i heard it then, and i hear it now. don't really care who's playing it or how it's being dressed up, it's just far more recognized as being a Manson bit.

^ agreed ^

touche

pretty much anything disgusting done in music is going to be compared to GG Allin and almost always fall short

tupac is the best

I just checked out Patton on Wikipedia; he did zombie voices for the Left 4 Dead games AND a robot voice in Portal! ROFL :clap:

Yup thats Patton he also did voices for the infected in I Am Legend, hes one of a kind. He was also in about 20 different short-lived bands.

DreamTheater, is your avatar Dr. House?

Sure Is

EDIT: Technicaallllyyyyy it's Hugh Laurie since this wasn't on the set of House when the picture was taken.
