We all did a bunch of shares on Australian bands awhile ago and I completely spaced and forgot to post these guys. So tonite I’m making up for it!

Started the day with Tool so it only makes sense to revisit them as the day winds down…

I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them fall away…

Wolfmother is such a good band, I remember the first time I heard them back in the early 2000s, they sound straight out of the 70s :metal:

I agree, Florence Welch is one of the most amazing female vocalists today (solid line descended from Elizabeth Fraser of Cocteau Twins and Lisa Gerrard of Dead Can Dance)

My vote for most amazing male vocalist today is Myles Kennedy. His work with Alter Bridge is amazing, and I love his long running collaboration with Slash - when he sings G’n’R songs he takes them to a whole new level!

Definitely the theme thats a good idea @RetainKing @marcusmaximus2000 your favorite vocalists here is my favorite male vocalist who I personally think was one of the best singers on Earth, Roy Khan from Norway the ex singer of Kamelot an operatic trained singer the range of this dudes voice is unreal

For female vocalists hands down Simone Simons of Epica, an operatic soprano who has figured out how to stand out and not sound like a stereotypical soprano singer in metal music, very unique poppy voice with unbelievable range control. On a side note she’s probably the most gorgeous woman I’ve seen my entire life so she has that as well :rofl:

Appreciate both recommendations, and have to agree on Simone Simons of Epica. The song is amazing and she definitely has talent! Then I googled her and you’re right she is truly gorgeous. To quote Richard Thompson,
And I’ve seen you at the corners and cafés it seems
Red hair and black leather, my favourite colour scheme

One of the best metal voices, just an amazing band all around, but on top of that just this complete ability to make you feel bad ass and in top of the world :metal:
