Limp Bizkit. Never like them. Then I heard some of Wes Borland's side projects. Made it clear that there were really good musicians in the band that could have evolved in interesting directions. But we'll never know because they were held back by Durst's angry drunk trashy frat-boy image and idiotic, juvenile lyrics.

You are 100% correct but that's not stopping me from being mad about it

Coheed and Cambria. Example.

Dark Tranquillity, the vocals can be some much energetic than they feel now to me.

Tornado of souls had one of the best guitar riffs and best guitar solos of all time, as well as one of the worst most amateurish vocal performances of any song ever

Unpopular opinion: Iron Maiden. It has taken me quite a while to get used to the vibrato in Dickinson's voice. Still not totally sure I like it.

Sonata Artica. Don't get me wrong, the story telling in his songs is amazing, but it's very obvious English isn't his first language.

Definitely has to be Megadeth without a question. Imagine them with an actual singer and they’d be so insane.

Dream theater is second but only because labrie has had his voice deteriorate so much over the years. His voice on every album up to octavarium was amazing.

Faith No More. Although "We Care A lot" popping up in Guardians 3 was one of the few bits I enjoyed.

I'm gonna get banned, but System of a down.

Banned, why? You are welcome to your bad, wrong opinions! It tells the rest of us who can be safely ignored. On the contrary, we thank you for your service.

The dude actually blocked me.

Oh, 100% agree. Ironic since he sang the Godzilla cover in King of the Monsters.
