Re: OS Off Topic 2009

I love Chiodos and I have seen them twice. Owens doesn't touch Patrick though. He is good in his own right screaming/singing are tough to do. And he has a nice scream and a decent voice. His scream is better than his singing voice IMO.

Well most singers that sing and scream have a scream better than their singing voice. Once you know how to do it screaming is pretty hard to mess up.

I'm the other way around. Patrick just really doesn't impress me.

Re: OS Off Topic 2009

Anthony Green's range sets him apart
Geoff Rickly's emotion is the best I've ever heard in a singer IMO
Craig Owens is solid all around

Patrick Stump is good and his voice is unique but in what I've heard of FOB his range isn't too amazing and I hardly get any emotion from anything I hear out of him.


btw a lot of people say that my music taste and judgement is insane so I'll take no offense on that

I would invest some time into FOB. He is pretty damn talented.

See, that's funny. When I was looking at your four main categories that you look at, I gave Stump a "+" in Range and Emotion, and a "-" in Uniqueness...and a push in Tone. Just shows that music is probably one of the biggest examples of "personal taste" there is.

To each their own at it's best.

Re: OS Off Topic 2009

I saw the David Lettern Show a few days ago and there was a band singing some country music. Their name was Jimmy Johnson or something like that. I just can't remember the name, or maybe it's not the name at all. Does anyone remember that and can help me with their name?

I'm a pretty big fan of FOB. Their just in the solid and not special category for me.

Yep. Here's a more written out version of what I think of him

Range - When stacked up to guys like Anthony Green and Craig Owens his range isn't that huge at all. I've tried singing FOB songs and songs that the other 2 sing and Patrick's stuff is easily in my range while Anthony Green's stuff is right at the top of my head voice

Emotion - I don't know what it is. I just don't really get anything at all from Patrick like I do the other guys

Tone - push - Patrick has good tone. I really like the sound of his voice. He would get a plus but when he does all of those slides with his voice I hear some ugly sounds coming out

Uniqueness + I really haven't ever heard a vocalist that sounds like him at all. Very different in a good way

Its so hard to argue musical style and preference. Everyone has their own favorites.

Sometimes I lose track of that and forget that everyone views things differently.

It was probably Jamey Johnson.

Re: OS Off Topic 2009

I LOVE Explosions in the Sky. One of the best bands of this decade, IMO.

Here's one of my favorite songs, some of you might recognize it:

Re: OS Off Topic 2009

You all bring up good points but in the end, we all have our own taste and no one can argue that.

My stay in the industry has led me to study and pretty much take apart mainstream music, including singers. Out of the vocalists listed in the past couple of pages, I think Stump's voice is the best if you're trying sell albums. I don't know if it's only me, but there's something about his voice that really attracts me to the music.

But then again, FOB's songs are extremely catchy, and a catchy song, sung by a decent singer, will always surpass a decent song, sung by an extraordinary singer.

In the end, while most of the singers listed have good voices, I'm not into the genre so I can't say much more.

Re: OS Off Topic 2009

What's nice about music is that everyone has his own taste, but still dozens of thousands of people gather around to listen to the same artist.
