    who in the hell is the singer for Rush? Anyway he has a one of a kind voice and it's just plain mesmerizing.

    Phil Anselmo
    Warrel Dane (Nevermore)

    Mike Patton

    surprised only two other people have said it, but he blows most of those other singers out of the water.

    Billy Corgan, he can sing in practically any style and gives real feeling to a song. Not so sure about Zwan though!

    yeah, I love billy corgan's voice too.. apart from that really raw sounding almost croaking/whining voice that you'd normally associate with corgan, he definitely showed on Adore that apart from the screaming rock vocals, his voice on some of those tracks are so much more gentle.. excellent stuff

    Patton is an excellent singer alright but I've heard many a vocalist who would easily blow him out of the water, so to speak. He still deserves a mention though, he definetly had an nice quality to his voice.
