Worst rock n roll voice
- Thread starter Highlander
- Start date
I had tickets to the Bryce Jordan Center in PA to see three bands .. in what was promoted as some sort of "fest".
After an "opener" band played for like 1/2 hour, System of a Down came out. Serj announces that the other two headliners didn't show up.
They do an hour set, take a break, come back out and do another hour, maybe even 90 minutes. They didn't have to do that.
They did a great show and I felt like I got something for my money. So I can't dis Serj.
But I can +1 your comment. ( Don't tell Serj )

I don't think Billy Corgan counts as rock and roll...
Fair enough. It’s a broad term. What is your definition of rock and roll?

No definition per se and still a broad term, but much like Potter Stewart's take on porn where I know it when I see it

Sure, it's punk rock.
But if it isn't Rock, what is it then? It's not folk, jazz, country, pop, or classical...

By the logic above, I'm going to say Billy Corgan is [gulp] rock. I've always counted him and the Smashing Pumpkins as Emo Rock. Therefore, I suppose, Corgan is in the "rock" genre. ...and a horrible voice that deserves to be a part of this growing list.

How is Chris Cornell on there? I’ll say I’ve never saw him live but did see an SNL where his voice was blown, but other than that I’m pretty sure he was considered the best voice of his generation. Weird.

Rockin' out to the sound of parrots screaching is better than the vocal musings of Chris.You can blame @sean for that one!
Opinions, mang...

While I do not share your opinion of Cornell's voice, I do find your descriptive "would you rather" to be hilarious.
