    I'm more peeved that they listed Ten as Ed's best album.

    And what about Greg Dulli?

    That's the problem with most rock singers, they think they need to scream for every song. Dave Grohl still hasn't learned that yet.

    big problems come with lists and categorizing.....

    the way i look at it... how much richer is 'music' just because we had the pleasure of hearing these guys sing.

    what would 'hunger strike' sound like if we didnt have chris and ed vocally duelling the way they did? say what you like. that song still gives chills.

    that being said, i dont think kurt deserves to be at #1.

    and btw, try to define grunge. ...

    I would agree but i guess they should change the list to 'iconic' rather then 'best'

    I never even heard of that Bush dude before. Courtney Love can Fuck off all she ever did of value was marry Kurt and where the fook is Mark Arm!?

    And what about Greg Dulli?

    Dunno if he's 'grunge' or not (but then, what is?) but yeah, he definately belongs on this list.

    this list blows.

    Bush & STP are not grunge, at least I don't consider either of them grunge and Courtney Love is... well... ugh.

    Also, Neil young seems to be tossed in there for lack of the author being able to come up with 10 actual grunge singers aside from the obvious ones.

    Mark Arm and Tad Doyle should have made the list... (yeah I love me some Tad)

    I'd have to agree. Cornell PRE-Audioslave is badass. I liked Audioslave, it just wasn't the same.

    grunge is what is found between my toes after an outdoor show while wearing sandals

    this means very little

    Was grunge around long enough to merit an "all-time" greatest list?

    When "grunge" is no longer a genre in American music history. So, never.

    Gavin Rossdale and Scott Weiland are jokes.

    Some of Coabin's live performances were atrocious and his voice was only really good on select songs on In Utero but on Nevermind and Unplugged his voice is enchanting.Wouldn't be my number 1 but at least he had sincerity in his music unlike Gavin Rossdale or Scott Weiland.
    Eddie should be top followed by Cornell followed by Cobain followed by Staley.

    Layne Staley should be #1

    no one, and i mean NO ONE, has or could copy this mans voice

    unlike Cobain and Ed, many people have imitated the voice and style

    nothing against that, just originality-wise Staley gets the nod

    as far as Weiland, give me a break
