Had a long thought about sticking Geoff Tate in place of Cornell or Patton.

There are some pretty fantastic singers in modern Powermetal. Atilla Dorn (Powerwolf) and Joakim Brodem (Sabaton) are damn good.

I'd be tempted to put Chris Cornell at #1. IMO he and Mercury are 1A and 1B. I saw CC at the Stiefel in Salina about 6 months before he died. Based on his recent music at the time, I thought his voice was starting to go downhill, but no. He sounded exactly like the 1990s Soundgarden, Temple of the Dog version of himself. Absolutely amazing.

Tyr combines clean vocals with a heavier sound inspired by Maiden and the like.

A comparable band might be Europe. Everybody remembers the cheesy keyboards of the Final Countdown but hidden in all of that hair spray and corporatism, John Norum was a legit virtuostic guitarist. Hell, a couple of the original members actually left the band before they hit it big to join Yngwie Malmsteen.

We've all heard Steel Panther, right?
I'm convinced those guys could've been a top-notch serious band. |

Big fan of both Red Fang and Uncle Acid. I'm digging back too, firing up some Witchfinder General today.
