From 1 to 4: all albums are classics, you can switch the order, it depends on the day for me...
From 5 to 10: all good records, the order doesn't matter either.
11: I don't know what's wrong with this one... maybe everything... I own all their stuff before this but I'm not purchasing anymore. The last track (I Will Return) is the Gamma Ray I like; one out of ten? Empire Of The Pale Confusion.

This is a guide list to some of the greatest voices in the history of rock & metal music, ranked in alphabetical order, by singer's name. I know that there are many more great singers/vocalists out there and that some really good singers were left out of this list.

The criteria by which the following singers were selected are:
1. Anything regarding the voice and the vocal performance (voice quality, technique, range, originality, creativity, etc.)
2. Influence - effect (if a singer has been an influence on other singers or a musical genre)
3. My personal taste

The form of the list is "Band - Trademark Album For The Singer"
"Name of the singer" (Bands he/she has joined)

1.My Dying Bride - Turn Loose The Swans

2.Primordial - To The Nameless Dead

3.Watchtower - Control And Resistance

4.Alice Cooper - Billion Dollar Babies

5.Evanescence - Fallen
