which is the best man who plays guitar and sings at the same time?
for me, i like it when they know a balance between the singing and guitar playing, a thing which Dave Mustaine and Alexi Laiho do. between these i'll choose Mustaine though, because while laiho is more technical guitarwise, dave's got a better voice(lol though it's not very good, i know) and he's able to put some emotion and power in his voice, while laiho's sounds monotonous. just growl growl growl raagh raagh reaper

Ihsahn of emperor, holy crapy I cant believe I almost forgot. He also does some crazy licks on the guitar. Great composition as well, the structure of the music is much to be appreciated.

I vote for Pekka Koko of Kalmah he is a really good (guitar-vocal)ist and second would come Devin Townsend of Strapping Young Lad another great guy....

Chuck Schuldiner "Death" no words to describe such amazing guitar playing plus those undead growls...also Max Cavalera from "Sepultura" pure aggressiveness. (since this is a "extreme metal" forum why pick clean vocals?)

I would reckon the apogee of best guitar-vocalist must be Jus oborn of Electric wizard. His dirge vocals with urbane guitaring skills pushes him to the pinnacle of this amalgamation.

Not to rule Mustaine out!:dcool:

I would say four guitarist-vocalists:

1. Jon Nödveidt (Dissection) R.I.P
2. Alexi Laiho (Children Of Bodom)
3. Petri Lindroos (Norther, Ensiferum)
4. Jari Mäenpää (Wintersun)

These four is just gods on both guitar and singing at the same time, especially Jon and Alexi that does their bands lead-guitars while taking care of the vocals as well!

Looking at your profile... so does Tom G. Warrior
As do 90% of the black metal bands around.
Btw, not that I like Alexi and his lame stage presence and music.

thats one of the reasons I dont listen to black metal so often
and thats why he isnt one of my fav. guitar-vocalist
and everyone from slayer used to wear make up as well though. which looked rediculous
but they're still a great band

Chuck Schuldiner does the job for me!

Watching "Left To Die" on youtube proves how skilled he is at shredding and singing at the same time. I was simply amazed!
