Steve Howe is easily the worse. He gets away with it because he's such an awesome guitar player

agreed.
"Hang on to a dream" could have been beuatiful, outsanding song, but it sounds like someone's humming along with on radio.
I don't think he's a good bass player neither.

What people don't seem to realize is that Lifeson writes ALL the songs with Geddy... No Lifeson, no Rush... And for those of you doubting his abilities as a player ('cause we all know he is an amazing songwriter and a truly original one), listen to his solo on the 'Exit... Stage Left' version of La Villa Strangiato and come back to me saying he's better than you thought he was !

 Lifeson's contribution is as important as that of Lee and Peart. He's the guitarist, for heaven's sake - and Rush have always put a lot of emphasis on the guitar (even if it may not seem so at a first glance). As to his abilities as a player, he may not be a virtuoso as his two sidekicks, but he's certainly one of the greatest unsung guitar heroes in rock.

Ha ha When people started bashing La Brie you start bashing Russel Allen.
It´s like a guy who gets fired from his job and takes it out on his wife 
(But I do have to say La Brie´s voice has improved a lot on Octavarium)

The singer from Tool. He sounds like he's going to cry the entire time. And Fish as well. Put me off from Marillion.

I agree totally. Something about his vocal approach to Octavarium puts it on the the top of my DT list. Scenes slipped to #2.

If Allen is wailing (as you say), I don't even want to know what Labrie is doing...

There are no bad singers in prog, we love them all. But imagine their voices without the music of the rest of the band, to which it fits perfectly. Who would be the worst singer a cappella??
For me it is ridicolous squeak of Geddy Lee (great musician nevertheless and perhaps it is very painstaking to sing this way). |
Actually, I find Steve Hackett quite intolerable. But because I love his music so, I put up with it.

I can't believe Howe isn't winning this hands down! Can't be many worse singers than him in the world. Thus, he gets my vote, of course.
However, he isn't a 'main' or 'lead' singer in a band. So he probably shouldn't be there.
In that case I would probably vote for Andy Latimer - good guitarist, shame about the depressing voice!  |
