Gorgoroth had multiple vocalists, but I guess with black metal this happens a lot. Then the band had one of those things where there were two competing versions…

That would be very interesting but Barnsey is almost too good a singer.
I know Corgan has essentially always ruled with an iron fist but I'd like to think James Iha and Jimmy Chamberlain in particular contributed musically (Iha wrote a few songs — Take Me Down is awesome). Surely someone was there to just tell Corgan he was full of shit from time to time; it can't be just coincidence that…
Nine Inch Nails has always been Trent Reznor solo though, so I don't think that counts. In no real sense has it ever been a 'band'.
I think if we're going to talk frontmen of rock bands, Roger Waters absolutely counts.
Or they get a disproportionate amount of shit put on them because they won Best Picture.
Fear's The Record comes to mind. Hell, even some NOFX!
Not only that, he's filled in for Axl when he decided to not show up to gigs (or, as in this case, leave stage early). I interviewed him once and Bach was so stoked that he got to sing Paradise City with Guns'n'Roses ("Do you know how many words are in that song, dude? Luckily, Axl has a teleprompter!").
That…is actually not a bad idea.
And, of course, now that I'm thinking of it, my mind is coming up with a lot more: Walk Among Us, Milo Goes to College, something from Propagandhi…
They always had some politics in their music; they just always tempered it with toilet humour. Then the Bush II era came and they ran with it.
Propagandhi are one of my favourite bands ever and even though they're almost a thrash metal band at this point, they will never not be punk.
In addition to A Rising Ape's suggestions, I would also suggest Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables by Dead Kennedys.
Massively.
Those are some amazing lyrics though.
Do you think Greg Graffin cited his own lyrics in his PhD? "As Bad Religion (ibid) have said, "Cradle for a cat, Wolfe looks back, How many angels can you fit upon a match?"
Good point, considering how upset she is about Jessa/Adam.
Sure. A lot of people still pronounce Barack wrong.
In my experience, the people least suited to being a life coach often attempt to be one.
That is bizarre.
