Shawn Whitaker (ex-Insidious Decrepancy) - vocals/guitar/bass
Shaun LaCanne (Putrid Pile) - vocals/guitar/bass
Peter Hasslebrack (Bloodsoaked) - vocals/guitar/bass
Jordan Varela (ex-Lust Of Decay) - drums

If you know these guys then you already know what genre they'd be playing.
I would actually have them write in a manner that they don't always play the same instrument and it's not always the same one of them doing the vocals/guitar or the bass, so when they play live you'd see Shawn, Shaun and Peter all switching out between vocals/guitar, guitar and bass depending on the song they're playing.

Hmm...

Vocals-Bobby Blitz
Guitar-Dave Mustaine
Guitar-Josh Christian
Bass-D.D Verni
Drums-Henrik Schönström

They'd play some insane technical thrash stuff and it would be really good.

Tanner Huotari - vocals, all instruments.

I'm guessing you mean that it should only exist as his dream and not an actually project?

Would be amazing, but...I think are so many dream lineups, that I Have to make a couple...for different genres!

Melodic Death Metal:
Jari Mäenpää - Lead guitar, backing vocals (Wintersun)
Peter Tägtgren - Guitar (Pain, Hypocrisy)
Mikael Stanne - Vocals (Dark Tranquillity) - Invited on a lot of songs: Johan Hegg - Vocals (Amon Amarth), Vintersörg
Anders Jivarp - Drums (Dark Tranquillity)
Bass - ¿? I don't know...I think will be different guests!

Power/Melodic:
Victor Smolski - Lead guitar (Rage)
Kai Hansen - Guitar, Backing vocals (Gamma Ray)
"Peavy" Wagner - Backing vocals (Rage)
Andi Deris - Vocals (Helloween) - Invited on a lot of songs: Ville Laihiala (Sentenced), Hansi Kürsch (Blind Guardian)
Mike Terrana - Drums (Masterplan)
Markus Grosskopf - Bass (Helloween)
Jens Johansson - Keyboards (Stratovarius)

Both lineups would enjoy the awesome presence of these great guests:
Angela Gossow, Michael Amott (Arch Enemy)
Walter Giardino (Rata Blanca)
Timo Kotipelto (Stratovarius)
Miika Tenkula (Sentenced) RIP
Martin Henriksson, Niklas Sundin (Dark Tranquillity)

These lineups maybe would have a lot of problems, but...anyway...in a dream...would be fuck'n AWESOME!!!

Fuck off

This would make for a good band:

Additional vocals: Ceddybu da rap sumo
Lead guitar: Michael Angelo Batio
Rhythm guitar: this guy-----> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4LbCLFUndg
Bass guitar: Robert "Kool" Bell

Bass: Cliff Burton - He can create noise from his bass like no other

Lead Gutar/Vocals: Muhammed Suiçmez (Necrophagist)
Guitar: John Haughm (Agalloch)

This will be the weirdest, most avant-garde band in the whole world:
Hasjarl - Guitars
Vindsval - Guitars
Abbath - Bass (Not weird at all, but he can help them out)
Deathspell Omega's drummer, whoever he is :/

Well, here's a new one for different genres:

thrash metal:

Mille Petrozza (Kreator) - rhythm guitar,vocals

Jens Becker (Grave Digger, ex-Running Wild, ex-X-Wild) - bass
Andre Olbrich (Blind Guardian) - lead guitar

I would have Marcus Siepen as rhythm guitarist but three BG members would be too much, so I'd let Andre play both the lead and rhythm guitar parts.

death metal:

L-G Petrov (Entombed) and Johan Hegg (Amon Amarth) - vocals
George Kollias (Nile) - drums
Steve Digiorgio (various) - bass
Jari Maenpaa (Wintersun, ex-Ensiferum) - lead guitar, vocals

I'm gona go with Deathrashcore. Not familiar with Josh Travis, but quite familiar with the others and that would be an interesting album for sure; especially if Alex was primary song writer.

Would be much better than that Slayer cover band that is touring North America these days

Definately. I'd love to hear what Alex could do teamed up with Joshua Travis. I really believe Josh to be the most innovative guitarist in metal right now. He makes sounds and notes come out of a guitar that no one else can do. And his stage presence is one of the best things I've ever seen. I saw Glass Cloud recently and it was just incredible how much energy and how well they play live.

Drums: Kai Hahto (Wintersun)
Bass: Steve DiGiorgio (Death)
Guitar: Joe Duplantier (Gojira)
Guitar: Bill Steer (Carcass)
Vocals: Geddy Lee (Rush)

Don't try to pretend this wouldn't be amazing.



A more serious attempt, going down a route that I don't feel has been explored yet in this thread:

Vocals/rhythm guitar: Neil Fallon (Clutch)
Lead guitar: Esa Holopainen (Amorphis)
Bass: Martin Mendez (Opeth)
Saxophone: Jørgen Munkeby (Shining (NOR))
Drums: Brann Dailor (Mastodon)

The lineup is a bit unorthodox and hugely improbable in the real world, but I'd LOVE to hear what they'd come out with if they got together and recorded an album.

Dimebag, Layne Staley, Kurt Cobain. Joey Jorsison and Paul Gray. That would be a very awesome mix.
