Re: Most underrated frontman
[ QUOTE ]
Scott Weiland. He's up there as one of my favorites, along with Billy Corgan, Thom Yorke, and Josh Homme (and others), but he never gets much credit for being as badass as he is. He's über talented and an all-around badass. I'm not sure if it's too bad he spends so much time in jail or if that's part of his essence that can't be taken away. He's pure rock & roll all the way. [/ QUOTE ] Exactly who I thought of when I saw the thread title, and I was sure no one would share my opinion. |

Re: Most underrated frontman
Huh? Scott Weiland is widely recognized as one of the top rock and roll frontmen of our time.

Re: Most underrated frontman
I was thinking the same thing... So I'd have to pick an underrated band where the frontman plays a large roll (songwriter/singer/guitar) or something like that. My pick would be Jim James of the band My Morning Jacket.

Stonetemplesmashingpearlvanaofthedoggarden. [/ QUOTE ] That reminds me, Chris Cornell. He's probably not underrated either though...is any frontman of a mainstream group underrated? |

Re: Most underrated frontman
Scott Weiland can never be underrated because his band sucks. If anything he's way, way overrated.
Isaac Brock is very good, but I don't think he's underrated. Him and Modest Mouse have garnered tons of respect for over a decade. I just don't think he's been in the mainstream long enough to command any respect as a frontman. Even then I don't think he fits the classic model of a frontman. So in the future he may be underrated. I don't know. Layne Staley is a good choice. |

Re: Most underrated frontman
I still don't understand how a frontman can be underrated. Are you referring to a guy who's frontman skills make an otherwise mediocre band great, or just a guy who is the frontman of a band that is underrated in general?
