I love that GG is the only one who needs no explanation after his name.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

How the fuck can a guitarist be considered the front man for a band?

I can see it I don't even know the singers name in AC/DC, when I hear the
band name I immediately think of Angus. He's the center of attention when they play live.
HR beat out Halford, that's pretty nuts.
Also the first comment made me laugh considering what Roadrunner had to say about the Metal Edge list ("where's corey taylor and Jonathan davis?!?!")
No wait I just read the second comment, even funnier than the first one. Since they are posted in reverse order I suppose they are last & second last
at this time. Here's the second:
"WTF? No Max Cavalera Soulfly/Sepultura, No Geof Tate, No Scott Sapp from Creed , No amazing voice of Klaus Mein Of The Scorpians No Jim Morrison ok
ahead of his time but major metal influence, GWARS Odurus Urungus, Joey Ramone, Bret Micheals,Ted Nugent, AND MY MAN FROM THE "D" YOU AINT MET A
MOTHERFUCKER LIKE ME,THE STONE COLD PIMP, THE COWBOY, THE BULLGOD, THE AMERICAN BADDASS, THE MAN THAT PUT DETROIT CITY ON THE MAP-KID MOTHER FUCKIN
ROCK! KID ROCK IS A GREATEST TOP 10-5 OR 3 LIST! DUH?"
A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s
a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal
favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

Not too sure they have any idea what "metal" or "frontman" means. That's some ridiculous nonsense there.
The very existence of flamethrowers proves that sometime, somewhere, someone said to themselves, ?You know, I want to set those people over there on
fire, but I?m just not close enough to get the job done.? George Carlin

I guess if you factor in the influence of punk bands on thrash bands, and then with some of them the later influence of metal on them, that is
acceptable. But I don't think of HR when I think of metal.

completely fucked up....half of these people have NOTHING to do with metal, as much as I may be a fan of them. I do enjoy seeing Sakevi of GISM
mentioned though. Metals is hippies.....
record collectors are pretentious assholes
