Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on May 31, 2007, 04:39:09 PM Can't argue with that.
Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: Ali on May 31, 2007, 04:44:00 PM Can't argue with that. I can :) Forget the rest, Axl's the best! Ali Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: 2112 on May 31, 2007, 04:48:44 PM Axl is no way near Freddie and will never be.
Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: Mustapha on May 31, 2007, 04:50:19 PM Now that's an accurate list. You REALLY can't argue with that.
Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: chineseroses on May 31, 2007, 04:53:35 PM Well anyone but Freddie winning that wouldn't have been correct, Axls a great front man but in terms of stage presence, crowd communication and vocal ability Freddie is miles ahead of anyone else.
Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: ppbebe on May 31, 2007, 04:54:33 PM So he's the best front man alive. : ok:
still the same magazine diss him? ??? Axl is no way near Freddie and will never be. I'm not that big on freddie either. Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: Ali on May 31, 2007, 05:01:30 PM To quote Matt Sorum, "Axl is the best frontman ever."
You can disagree if you want, but for me, Axl is the best rock n' roll frontman. I don't consider Queen to be an out and out rock band like GN'R or AC/DC or Aerosmith. Ali Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: novemberparadise23 on May 31, 2007, 05:05:48 PM freddie has always been my second favorite frontman and vocalist to the one and only w. axl rose
but this list unlike others sounds alright Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: jarmo on May 31, 2007, 05:06:34 PM Is this in the magazine?
Voted by the readers? /jarmo Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: ppbebe on May 31, 2007, 05:12:48 PM I don't consider Queen to be an out and out rock band like GN'R or AC/DC or Aerosmith. Ali I don't consider Queen or GNR as a out and out rock band like AC/DC or Aerosmith. :-X they are more diverse than that. Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: daviebuckethead on May 31, 2007, 06:51:01 PM Is this in the magazine? Voted by the readers? /jarmo im taking a guess that it was on Kerrang TV, they tdo top 10 / 20 stuff all the time Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: UK_Gunner on May 31, 2007, 06:56:58 PM That's fair enough really. It's so hard to rank them but he is up there with the best. I do agree that Freddie isn't really a rock n' roll frontman but his skill is unquestionable.
Just out of interest where did Plant, Morrisson, Jagger etc. all come. Kerrang's lists are usually very poor. Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: mrlee on June 01, 2007, 08:34:06 AM thank god shitty cobaine didnt beat axl like nirvana usually do with smells like teen boredom
Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: GeraldFord on June 01, 2007, 08:43:33 AM At least Axl didn't get beaten by Kurt Cobain.
Where is Scott Weiland on this list btw?? :hihi: Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: Grouse on June 01, 2007, 10:49:36 AM Just the way it should be, no one will ever be a better frontman than Freddie...
Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: Lucky on June 01, 2007, 01:39:56 PM pls dont turn this into a Kurc Cocain sucks thread.
Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: marknroses on June 01, 2007, 03:43:36 PM I think Freddie Mercury is a wonderfully, energetic and charming frontman.
Axl was never really a charming rock n' roll frontman - HE IS A BAD-ASS FRONTMAN! I bet if you made Freddie do on stage what Axl did in his prime performing peakness, he wouldn't have the strength or the balls to keep up. Long Live AXL :smoking: MNW Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: freedom78 on June 01, 2007, 04:16:05 PM I think Axl would appreciate coming in 2nd to Freddie, since Queen is such a big influence.
Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: von on June 02, 2007, 04:13:09 AM Axl being #2 to Freddie Mercury is really like just saying Axl is #1. Freddie sort of transcends these lists and is his own... thing. Axl is my favorite singer and GN'R is my favorite band, but Freddie Mercury is the definitive frontman. Fuck Robert Plant. Sabbath was more influential and Queen more accomplished. Anyway, being behind Freddie isn't really being behind. You can't beat him. Axl beat everyone else on the list, obviously he can't beat Freddie. No one should. Kurt Cobain should be #1 on the worst frontmen of all time list. He was a shit singer. Shit lyricist. Shit guitarist. Shit person junkie asshole who blew his goddamn pussy brains out and if he didn't he'd be as washed up today as the rest of the shit grunge scene (except Eddie Vedder, he's cool).
Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: axleu on June 04, 2007, 03:09:02 AM I love Freddie, but I prefer Axl. Rawer, more dangerous!
Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: 2112 on June 04, 2007, 07:38:11 AM Axl is no way near Freddie and will never be. I'm not that big on freddie either. What I meant was, that Axl sucks a donkeys ass compared to Freddie Mercury. Freddie was the best singer, one of the best songwriters and the best front man ever. Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: SLCPUNK on June 04, 2007, 10:36:26 PM If anybody beat him, I can accept Freddie, no problem.
Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: AXL 20 on June 06, 2007, 02:35:44 PM i have always said freddie #1 and Axl #2.
you just dont beat freddie, so if hes not at the top the list is BS Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: deep pocketz on June 06, 2007, 08:37:52 PM Axl is no way near Freddie and will never be. I'm not that big on freddie either. What I meant was, that Axl sucks a donkeys ass compared to Freddie Mercury. Freddie was the best singer, one of the best songwriters and the best front man ever. sigh Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: fuckin crazy on June 11, 2007, 05:42:10 AM Axl being #2 to Freddie Mercury is really like just saying Axl is #1.

Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: fuckin crazy on June 11, 2007, 05:45:06 AM BTW , I never saw Queen live so I have to go with Axl .

Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: jarmo on June 11, 2007, 10:14:43 AM did i get deleted brining up robert plant.what a joke really ? dammmmmmmmmm ,that sucks can't even give my opinions.whats up with that jarmo ? It's called splitting a topic. Since you people want to discuss other artists besides GN'R, do so in the right section. Dammmmmmmmmmmmm ::) /jarmo Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: horsey on June 11, 2007, 11:10:09 AM so delete me an not them ,is that fair ?

Yes, censorship, nazis, geeks, nerds, drool, LOLZ! etc etc. Are you done? Go ahead, delete yourself if you can't deal with the fact that we don't discuss Robert Plant in the GN'R section. /jarmo Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: horsey on June 11, 2007, 11:19:52 AM no i believe axl is #1 ok !
but other people were discussing other singers is why i brought up robert plant.just in conversation,that is all. Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: lynn1961 on June 11, 2007, 12:24:38 PM Hey, my post was deleted, as well. Guess, since this is under GnR, we're supposed to keep it at talking about Axl, only, and Freddie is ok because, um, I guess because he's the only one ahead of him in the list. Guess if we want to discuss any other front men, we have to take it out of the GnR section.
Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: Mikkamakka on June 11, 2007, 03:10:07 PM Can't argue with that. I can :) Forget the rest, Axl's the best! Ali Same here! :yes: Axl was the best, but unfortunately he doesn't have the same huge discography as the others. He's No.2 position with 3 full albums tells how huge he was (and is). 8) Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: horsey on June 11, 2007, 07:44:16 PM Hey, my post was deleted, as well.?

Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: D on June 12, 2007, 03:59:47 PM U know what I dont understand.
Its hypocritical as fuck to say Kurt Cobain is overrated cause he died but yet give Freddie Mercury a pass. isn't Mercury technically overrated cause of the way he died of Aids? I tend to think so. Freddie isnt better than Axl or Steven Tyler in my opinion.

Freddie isnt better than Axl or Steven Tyler in my opinion. Gimme a break.... let's see 20 something hugely succesfull albums for Freddie prior to his death, playing to millions and millions of people being named best frontman several times even before he died.... What you said is just blasphemy.... ;) Title: Re: Axl Voted No2 Greatest Rock Front Man On Kerrang Top 20 Post by: Mikkamakka on June 12, 2007, 05:16:59 PM U know what I dont understand.

Jesus Christ I hate that word. There are marching band drummers who are "Technically" better than John Bonham so does that mean they are better drummers. That shit drives me crazy when people talk about "Technical ability" I know a guy that I went to high school who can "Technically" sing way better than Axl but guess what he isnt a Better singer or anywhere close to Axl Rose. Dont get me wrong Freddie deserves to be high on the list but Im not so sure about number 1.
