    I like Stainds first album, then they started writing crappy 4 chord pop songs that all sounded like Avril Lavine. Eddie would blow Aaron out of the water live, whoever made the assumption that Aaron is a better singer live is crazy. Could Aaron sing a song like Blood or Life Wasted?

    are you sure they opened for nickelback? im pretty sure thats not accurate but i could be wrong.

    Sounds pretty accurate to me, both make absolutely awful music.

    Yea what was I thinking. You are normally right.
  • i was at reading festival a few years back and being too stoned to move, watched staind's set.

    it was hilarious coz their pa blew up after two songs, so we were treated to an aaron lewis acoustic set.

    the guy can certainly sing, but the trouble is he makes himself sound generic because he breads the bumcheeks of other singers like vedder, staley and cornell and he can only ever sing these guys songs half as well as they do, so he sells himself short.

    my advice to the guy would be to write and perform his own songs. his version of black is sleep inducing.
  • here is a FLAC of him singing Piano Man. i think he sounds incredible. if you dont like him, please don bother downloading it or commenting on it.

    Wow, not sure how anyone could listen to that and honestly say the guy cant sing. Its one thing to say you dont like his tone or dont like him for one reason or another, but that is raw talent. I will say it again as a vocalist(not a lyricist/songwriter/frontman/guitar player), he belongs in the same breathe as cornell or vedder.
