He had a couple golden years there where his vocals were a pleasure.

His vocals work for what they do.

Given the type of music, I don't think vocal "quality" should be much of a factor anyway...

Our thoughts on the matter just differ. I think vocal quality should be a factor in all types of music.

You must not be in death metal then.

In death metal, the vocals become more like an additional guitar track.

I like metal vocalists that can do a bit of singing but also do the screaming/growling thing well. Like Rob Flynn of Machine Head, Anders from In Flames, Burton Bell from Fear Factory, Jesse Leach from Killswitch, etc.

I've never thought of vocal quality as a factor for the music I like. If I did I'd probably be into Beyonce or some other auto-tuned cheesy shit.

I've played guitar and bass since I was 12, so, I've always tended to focus on the music being played.

I think the only metal vocalist's I've liked have been Pepper Keenan of C.O.C. and Phil Anselmo of Pantera, (he was an acquired taste).

Well, I think Dave Mustaine can sing when he has to. He's not "awful". He just has a distinctive style. He's certainly not atonal or something.

I really only pay attention to vocal quality when vocal quality is emphasized in the music. I don't listen to Motorhead and think "boy I wish he could sing better" but I absolutely do listen to Dio and think "damn, this guy is the best ever."

I'll give you that, the studio version does sound pretty good. A lot of these guys sounded a lot better in the studio though. That's true of a lot of the "good" singers too, btw.

Very true. It sounds way better with the double vocal on tape than it did when I saw them live.
The same show had White Zombie and Rob can't sing his way out of a paper bag live.

Zombie was pretty killer live, though.

Rob spat on my buddy. He made the mistake of getting too near the stage wearing this:
