[Downunder]

Jesus they both suck

(ok I haven't heard the Coil thing, but that evansence chick pisses me off so if the coil sounds even remotly like her she's gotta be shit)





Southwood you may now attempt to prove me wrong

[everyhourdylan]

lacuna coil is amazing...dude check them out...they put evanescence to shit.

[Downunder]

lacuna coil is amazing...dude check them out...they put evanescence to shit.
My farts put Evansence to shit (and if I try really hard it's just shit)

Anyway, I'll d/l a bit of Luna Coil and let you know.














God help you if they are shit.

[The Destroyer]

It's Lacuna Coil. :p

And they only get the comparison because they both have female singers. They're not that alike.

[The Mask]

They're not that unlike each other though :$

just cristina scabbia is infinatly better and the music is more ballad-ish.

DOWNUNDER -

heaven's a lie
circle
reverie

if you like them, i'll hook you up with more.

[everyhourdylan]

lc is much heavier. no electronics in their music. no piano. has a male singer. blatant lc riff rippoffs. well the lacuna coil singer is way hotter anyway and well you cant go wrong with an accent.

[The Mask]

wtf of course there's electronics in lacuna coil.

in the comalies album at least.

[everyhourdylan]

[Kane Knight]

Mask - no matter what type of music you like, how can you give a :n: to "ole blue eyes - Sinatra?? I am pained by your response :rant: :'(

It was a :n: to indicate that this was not the correct Frank.

[Kane Knight]

It's Lacuna Coil. :p

And they only get the comparison because they both have female singers. They're not that alike.

And because people are idiots and believe that if they both have women fronts, they're obviously similar.

The comparison's like comparing John Coltrane to Limp Bizkit. Whether you think one is better than the other is irrelevent--The grounds for comparison are slim...

[Kane Knight]

BTW, this is a MUSIC forum, and as EveryHourDylan has taught us, singers aren't musicians. Therefore, I demand this thread be closed.

[Gertner]

male - R.Kelly
female- Mariah Carey

Group- Boyz 11 Men

[Good News Gertie]

Messiah - you and ilt_undertaker should hook up

[Tidus]

James Hetfield

[Kane Knight]

James Hetfield

Sweet Jesus!

[The Mask]

i bet kane knight knows which frank it is :'(

[Kane Knight]

i bet kane knight knows which frank it is :'(

Frank Kozlowski? ;)

Naw, Humpy, I'm betting on Frank BLACK.

[Arashi Kage]

Sammy Hagar - Van Halen

Rob Halford - Judas Priest

Maybe Bruce Dickinson, I guess I like his vocals enough to be one of my favorite, but Halford's vocals are just awesome, I take his over Bruce.

[Krow]

the blatant lacuna coil rip off

Pull!

*aims, fires*

Stop fishing for attention, wad.

Anyway, I'd have to say, in no particular order:

Men:

Jaymz Hetfield
Brandon Boyd
Richard Ashcroft
Maynard James Keenan
Chris Cornell

Women:

Amy Lee
Lennon Murphy
Liv Kristine Espænes
Jewel
Sebastian Bach...er...wait...I mean...Tori Amos. Yeah.

[Kane Knight]

Freddie Mercury and Gary Cherone

[The Destroyer]

Heresy, I say.

[Disturbed316]

<font face="Century Gothic" size=2 color=#2E4998>BRUCE FUC</>KING DICKINSON!!!</font>

You mean David Dickinson :o

;) :p

[Downunder]

Ok I downloaded Comailes, I'm up to track 4 and I haven't turned off yet (half an Evansense song usually makes me turn off).

Anyway Laun Coil doesn't sound anything like Evansense, infact I quite like them.

[M-A-G]

Jayson Kay

[JesSoad]

Serj Tankian!!! (SOAD)

and...Um...Constantine Maroulis (Pray for the soul of Betty)is pretty awesome.American Idol, remember?

[Gertner]

lol wtf

[road doggy dogg]

:wtf:

[Downunder]

Dam I tried repping Mike for his post and couldn't work out why I couldn't rep the same post twice.

I'll look at the date next time.


But really :wtf:

[Skippord]

Um Shaun Morgan

[Silent]

Haha wow old topic.

My favorite singer right now is Jesse Leach, when he was in Killswitch Engage that is (not too crazy about his current band.)

[Joey Slugs]

Ryan Adams, Elton John, Elvis Costello

[RP]

Hiliary Duff

[The Gooch]

I will not rank them because it is mood dependent:

Klaus Meine--The Scorpions
John Fogherty--CCR/Solo
Jim Cuddy--Blue Rodeo
Sammy Hagar--Van Halen/Solo
Joe Elliot--Def Leppard
Don Henley--The Eagles/Solo
Ronnie James Dio--Dio
Steve Perry--Journey/Solo
Layne Staley--AIC
Thom Yorke--Radiohead

[Cuzziebro]

I have two favourite singers, i have an all time favourite and a favourite that will probably come and go.

All time - Freddy Mercury
Right Now - James Blunt

[weather vane]

Vince Neil

[The Gooch]

Vince Neil

In a shocking turn of events......

:p

[El Vaquero de Infierno]

Right Now - James Blunt

I think it would of been kinder for your parents to have smothered you at birth. :nono:

[FakeLaser]

Darryl Palumbo

[SecretDesire]

Male: Ne-yo
Female:Beyonce'/Anita Baker
Male Group: Maroon 5
Female Group: Destinys Child

[Downunder]

I will not rank them because it is mood dependent:

Klaus Meine--The Scorpions
John Fogherty--CCR/Solo
Jim Cuddy--Blue Rodeo
Sammy Hagar--Van Halen/Solo
Joe Elliot--Def Leppard
Don Henley--The Eagles/Solo
Ronnie James Dio--Dio
Steve Perry--Journey/Solo
Layne Staley--AIC
Thom Yorke--Radiohead


Fucking hate Sammy Hagar :mad:

[The Gooch]

Fucking hate Sammy Hagar :mad:
Why? You hate him as a singer/performer or do you hate that he is in VH and not DLR?

I think he is a very good singer. When I went to see VH in concert, Sammy sang the DLR songs better than DLR ever could. Dunno, just my opinion. DLR is definitely the better showman/frontman from an entertainment standpoint.

Also I want to add Prince to my list.

[redoneja]

Chris Cornell
Brian Johnson
Robert Plant
Layne Staley

[Kane Knight]

Jesus they both suck

(ok I haven't heard the Coil thing, but that evansence chick pisses me off so if the coil sounds even remotly like her she's gotta be shit)





Southwood you may now attempt to prove me wrong


Things Lacuna Coil have in common with Evanescence:


They have a female front.
They have instruments.
They have a female front.
They process their instruments for a "heavy" sound.
They have a female front.
They also have a female front.
Stop me if I missed anything guys, I'm having trouble working with the lack of imagination it takes to compare the two sonically, lyrically, or personel-wise.

[Kane Knight]

Also, Freddie Fucking Mercury > all.

Top five would probabaly be:

Mercury
Bowie
Cherone (Yes, he did hair metal, he also did ToJ which > j00)
