Dio
Bach
Scott (AC/DC Obviously, fuck off Stapp)
Hansen

This list’s a shit!!!!!!!

Dani Filth, from what I have heard should be higher. I understand why Plant is up there, but truthfully why he is THAT high? I believe the formula they used for this list is based on talent, influence, and legacy, which explains why half of these people are up here at all(Fred Durst caused quite a storm with his open slandering of Slipknot, a dick-move that will make him go down in history as one of the biggest idiots in music, along with many of his clumsy, heavy-handed antics that make everyone cover their eyes in shame.) Chris could outstrip Plant any day, but Led Zepplin still was one of the largest influences of all metal genres in the first place. Corey Taylor and David Draiman should be a little higher, as they both are very talented and charismatic front men of two very competent modern bands. M. Shadows was completely missed from what I’ve seen, and that’s a damn shame. Dio is deserving of the top ten, as he has one of the most potent voices in all of metal. Why isn’t Jack Black up here, I wonder? This list is very Rock heavy because of the fact that the actual line between metal and rock is very blurry, near impossible to tell where one begins and the other ends. Another missing bit may be Adam Gontier of Three Days Grace, as although he is a very basic song writer, he still has an impressive voice and has a nice little penchant for melody. James LaBrie is a very under appreciated vocalist, as with the rest of Dream Theater, and has probably been overlooked because of a relatively small fan base. Glenn Danzig is another anomaly, as he is quite talented. Hendrix was stoner rock and, from what I hear, a terrible voice. Cobain should not be overlooked, although his vocals were poor, he and the rest of Nirvana was still the main influence (with Soundgarden and Pearl Jam) of Grunge, which is the infusion of punk and heavy metal. Jonathan Davis brought Nu Metal to the world, to the happiness of some and the chagrin of the rest. Linkin Park pretty much only put a much more rap influenced twist into Nu Metal, to many of the metal haters’ delights. Keenan does deserve a little more credit, although Tool is not really my cup of tea, due to his very well thought up works. I do not really recall a time when David Bowie was even rock, so he is the real anomaly here, though I may be mistaken.

Now comes my little ideas: Cross out Durst and Bowie. Durst even shames the already shamed Nu Metal genre. Bowie was always one of the greatest pop sensations, but that is all he has made himself stand out for: Pop.

Amy Lee and Ms. Scabbia should switch places. They are both beautiful and talented, but Ms. Scabbia is a tad more able than Amy, even though she lacks the level of fame Amy has achieved.

The artists missing include, but not limited to: Chad Gray(Mudvayne & Hell Yeah), J. Loren Wince(HURT, they are not truthfully pure metal, but they are very competent rockers, either way), Jame LaBrie(Dream Theater), and Till Lindemann(Rammstein)

I really hope this was helpful to some of you who were not satisfied with this list and at least a little disappointed in the manner of three quarters of the comments that I have seen(Believe me, I’ve seen enough of these in my hour of reading.) and hope that this puts this all back in perspective.

METAL FOREVER!!!!!!!!!

Blashphemy!
