Title: NOMINATIONS: Best 90's Century Frontman Survivor! Post by: Ignatius on November 28, 2004, 09:13:10 AM Ok, I'm back with the best 90's frontman nominations thread. This is going to be so much fun!! :yes:
In case someone missed the previous survivor thread, this is a thread in which you will first nominate 10 frontman from the 90's, the top 10 amongst all nominations will enter our frontman survivor. Then, you will vote off one frontman per round until we have a winner. So far, the HTGTH members have voted Chris Cornell as the best 21st century frontman. Now we focus in the 90's. A few reminders/rules before you post your nominees. 1.- 10 nominations each would be ideal. The more we have, the better. If you can't supply that many, 6 will be the minimum allowed then. 2.- Use your own judgement to decide if a frontman should be nominated for this or other decades. For Example, Axl Rose, Bono, Jagger, Jon Bon Jovi...they could fit in two or three (Jagger) decades. You will only get one chance to nominate him, so make sure you've thought where would you like to place him. If you nominate Axl Rose now, you won't be able to nominate him in the 80's survivor...I think you get the point. 3.- You can't nominate Chris Cornell as he was our previous winner. He's already entered the All time Survivor Finale. 4.- I'm gonna cut it down to 10 nominees. Last round we had 15 and it took longer than I had anticipated. 5.- Most of the nominees will be mainstream, but that doesn't mean unknown artists are not welcome. This is based on majority, but you never know. Besides, we all appreciate reading everyone's input. 6.- The frontman may also play an instrument. It doesn't have to be a pure frontman like Axl, Weiland or Morrison. 7.- Band minimum of three players please. I think that's all. If I remember something, I'll post it later. If anybody needs a bit of refreshing, the following is a random list I came out with in 2 minutes. There are tons of frontmen to choose from....this is just a few names I've thrown. Dexter Holland - The Offspring Kurt Cobain - Nirvana Ed Vedder - Pearl Jam Layne Staley - Alice in Chains Damon Albarn - Blur Sebastian Bach - Skid Row Jonathan Davis - Korn Fred Durst - Limp Bizkit Billy Corgan - Smashing Pumpkins Liam Gallagher - Oasis Rob Thomas - Matchbox 20 Scott Stapp - Creed Richard Ashcroft - The Verve Jakob Dylan - The Wallflowers Whit Crane - Ugly Kid Joe Dave Grohl - Foo Fighters De la Rocha - RATM Mike Patton - Faith No More Thom Yorke - Radiohead Rob Zombie - White Zombie Bradly Newel - Sublime ....and so on, there are plenty. C'mon people, give me your nominations so we can get this this rolling. Title: Re: NOMINATIONS: Best 90's Century Frontman Survivor!

Ed Vedder - Pearl Jam Scott Stapp - Creed Fred Durst - Limp Bizkit Rob Zombie - White Zombie Sebastian Bach - Skid Row Kurt Cobain - Nirvana Billy Corgan - Smashing Pumkins Richard Ashcroft - The Verve Dave Grohl - Foo Fighters Title: Re: NOMINATIONS: Best 90's Century Frontman Survivor! Post by: Skeletor on November 28, 2004, 11:43:08 AM No point in voting for Axl, he's without a doubt the greatest frontman of all time.
Zack De La Rocha - RATM Mike Patton - Faith No More Kristoffer Garm Rygg - Arcturus / Ulver / Borknagar (yeah I know there's no point in naming such an unknown guy, but it's a matter of principle: Garm is friggin' legend!) Trent Reznor - NiN Nick Holmes - Paradise Lost Mikael ?kerfeldt - Opeth Nick Cave - Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds Fernando Ribeiro - Moonspell Max Cavalera - Sepultura Peter Steele - Type O Negative EDIT: Forgot about Trent, he definitely deserves to be there.

Ed Vedder - Pearl Jam Layne Staley - Alice in Chains Sebastian Bach - Skid Row James LaBrie - Dream Theater Mike Patton - Faith No More Thom Yorke - Radiohead Nick Cave - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds Trent Reznor - NIN Marilyn Manson - Marilyn Manson Quote 7.- Band minimum of three players please. It means that we can't nominate solo artists? Title: Re: NOMINATIONS: Best 90's Century Frontman Survivor! Post by: Hammy on November 28, 2004, 12:13:23 PM Mike Patton - Faith No More

It means that we can't nominate solo artists? Well, this is tricky. Solo artists are not frontman because they don't have a band to front. It reads stupid, but that's the best reason I could give you. There's a few exceptions such as Trent Reznor or Beck. NIN is a solo effort, although on tour Reznor brings his own band. Moby and Beck could be alike examples, but they don't really look like frontman. Reznor on the other hand... Anyway, is really up to you. Title: Re: NOMINATIONS: Best 90's Century Frontman Survivor!

She has a touring band of three members (guitar, bass, drums), plus her (vocals, piano). So if I can nominate her, my list will be the one below. If I can't, then please take the first one I posted.? :peace: ooops, I have to modify my list again, cause I forgot about Chris Robinson of Black Crowes. So no Yorke for me.

Post by: Metallifuck on November 28, 2004, 04:20:26 PM James Hatfield - Metallica (Metallica was at their best in the 90's) You'll get flamed for saying that on here. Definately save James for the '80s. Title: Re: NOMINATIONS: Best 90's Century Frontman Survivor!

I liked Metallica's 90's material the best, but thats just me. I say that we should save Axl for the 80's caus think about it, AFD, best GN'R album, late 80's.

Post by: kj_jive on November 29, 2004, 12:19:29 AM No it's not. Results May Vary is Limp Bizkit's worst cd by far....which isn't saying a hell of a lot.

Post by: x axls rose x on November 29, 2004, 09:24:53 AM Mkay, well definately we have to have the one and only Axl Rose, but I agree with whoever said he should be for the 80's, I don't feel like looking for who said it. And Courtney Love- Hole Kurt Cobain- Nirvana How can you leave out Courtney? ??? She's so incredibly crazy! :D Title: Re: NOMINATIONS: Best 90's Century Frontman Survivor! Post by: Metallifuck on November 29, 2004, 10:46:05 AM I definately agree that Axl shouldn't be allowed (I like him obviously), but it's so obviously who is going to win, especially out of the '80s when there were so many other great frontman other than Axl.

Post by: grendood on November 29, 2004, 04:07:37 PM 1. Liam Gallagher is easily the best frontman of the 90's
Title: Re: NOMINATIONS: Best 90's Century Frontman Survivor! Post by: Captain Obvious on November 29, 2004, 07:07:09 PM Layne Staley
Sebastian Bach Liam Gallagher Edwin Mike Patton Axl shouldn't be allowed, he will obviously win and this will be a big waste of time. Title: Re: NOMINATIONS: Best 90's Century Frontman Survivor! Post by: Jim on November 29, 2004, 07:31:51 PM Do I have to list ten?
If so, I can't be bothered. But I'm going to say: Mike Patton Because he needs to be in it, and should by all rights win. Oh, nad great to see Nick Cave mentioned! I'll second that. I only mention the two above because I don't know if they'll both definatly get in, when they should... I'll also add Trent, even though he will definatly be included, for fun. Oh, and Maynard, because for some reason, he didn't win the 21st Century one. I don't know why. Title: Re: NOMINATIONS: Best 90's Century Frontman Survivor! Post by: KeVoRkIaN on November 30, 2004, 04:22:22 PM Mike Patton - best there is
Title: Re: NOMINATIONS: Best 90's Century Frontman Survivor! Post by: Ignatius on December 01, 2004, 06:00:36 AM Make sure you post your nomination today for those who haven't done so yet. I'll be counting your nominations tonight. Also, by popular demand, I've decided to "vote off" Axl Rose from the nominees. This is a GNR board, so most likely he will end up winning. The purpose of this thread is to create as much uncertainty as possible so, in order to keep this thread uncertain, he is not eligible anymore until further notice. ( I might give him a wild card to enter the grand finale...who knows) What I think it could be a good idea is to debate on whether Axl shoud've been included in the 80's or 90's survivor and why. I might start a thread in the GNR section later today about it. Title: Re: NOMINATIONS: Best 90's Century Frontman Survivor! Post by: GNR_Green on December 01, 2004, 12:21:37 PM Can I have Ian Brown in the list please? He fronted The Stone Roses for those who have to ask.
