Daniel Gildenlow is just lightyears ahead of the other singers in the poll, he has a truly amazing voice. Mikeal Akerfeldt is my second choice.

1. Maynard James Keenan - unbelievable distinct and varied voice, which he
seems to evolve or change from album to album

I like and appreciate most of those on the list and a lot which are missing
(Shadow Gallery and Vanden Plas vocalist's, Buddy Lackey, both vocalist's
from Fates Warning etc.).

I went for 'Other'...on the basis that Mike Baker wasn't included...

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

I like some Fantomas and Mr. Bungle but I saw Tomahawk when they opened for Tool on the Lateralus tour and he was terrible.Practically got booed off the stage.

I love LaBrie, Tate and Gildenlow, but I voted for Allen, of SYMPHONY X.

Woted for Mikel Akerfeld, but Allen, Gildenlow and LaBrie were very close. Where is Jorn Lande and Tom Edglund?

I'd say Jorn Lande for his work with ARK. He pretty much covers everything ther, from Coverdale to Bjork....

It is said to be the first Test-pressing of the corean release??
