they were the faces and voices of their
bands welcome to watchmojo.com and today
we’re counting down our picks for the
top 10 hunt men in rock for this list
we’ve chosen male lead vocalists based
on a combination of their showmanship
stage presence bravado popularity and
vocal chops so extremely talented and
memorable guys like Kurt Cobain and
Eddie Vedder have been excluded because
they shunned the idea that front men
should get all the glory
number 10 Bruce Dickinson Iron Maiden
while seamlessly melding his showmanship
with Iron Maiden’s theatrical live shows
Dickinson wowed critics and fans alike
with a range that reached practically
operatic proportions
his vocal prowess on the number of the
beast gave the band their first UK
chart-topper and made fans forget Paul
Di’Anno
ultimately we also paved the way for
future power metal front men and helped
Iron Maiden spearhead the new wave of
British metal
number nine Dave Grohl Foo Fighters
while this multi-instrumentalist has
been associated with nirvana Queens of
the Stone Age them crooked vultures and
more Dave Grohl’s main project is as the
Foo Fighters main men
all you have to do is watch him in
action to get a glimpse of his energy
and enthusiasm also his constant smiling
is contagious and goes a long way in
proving why he’s does the nicest guy in
rock
number eight bono you too
you might think he’s pretentious but
you’ve got to give bono credit for
making you to one of the world’s biggest
fans the singer and lyricist ego isn’t
so big that he doesn’t appreciate his
fans besides his humanitarian work
bono gives back through crowd
interaction during shows with his
theatrical performances and diverse
vocal range he also brings you two songs
to life and sells millions of records
worldwide
number seven Axl Rose Guns N’Roses
both on stage and off the Guns N’Roses
frontman used sex drugs and dirty
rock-and-roll while he had problems with
punctuality cooperating with band
members and knowing when to shut his
mouth this all added to the appeal with
such charisma and raw energy Axl Rose
was undeniably a big part of why the
most dangerous band in the world was so
successful
number six David Lee Roth van Halen
though van Halen found chart-topping
success with Sammy Hagar it was with
original vocalist David Lee Roth that
they changed rock and roll after
introducing his hard rocking vocals on
the band’s groundbreaking debut Diamond
Dave’s mesmerised fans with his live
renditions and outrageous staged
behavior alongside
Eddie Van Halen’s raw guitar Rob’s
lyrics also helped turn the band into
radio favorites and one of the 80s
biggest rock acts
number five Steven Tyler Aerosmith
he may be known as the demon of screamin
but Steven Tyler’s talents expand beyond
his one-of-a-kind vocals
he writes the band’s lyrics can claim
multiple instruments and is famous for
his onstage thrills spills whirls and
twirls and let’s not forget his often
vibrant attire even though the bad boys
from Boston have been active since the
70s this rock icon still going strong
today
number four Ozzy Osbourne Black Sabbath
and solo
even when fronting Black Sabbath it was
clear the Prince of Darkness knew what
it took to put on a good show but it was
after leaving that The Godfather of
heavy metal took his stage antics to the
next level
with his trademark vocals and shocking
theatrics which included biting the head
off a live bath he remained the center
of attention
number three Mick Jagger The Rolling
Stones
the stones explosive combination of rock
and roll wouldn’t be the same without
mick jagger’s expressive vocals and
uninhibited showmanship Parham with
Keith Richards unforgettable guitar
riffs and you’ve got a songwriting
partnership that’s brought us decades of
his
with mixed raw voice and incest of on
stage energy it’s no surprise the stones
are often cited as one of rock’s
must-see live bands there’s just no one
with the moves like Jagger
number two Freddie Mercury Queen when it
comes to being a frontman Freddie
Mercury was the whole package
he had a lively stage presence
theatrical vocals that reached four
octaves and a knack for writing some of
the greatest rock melodies ever his big
personality was perfect for Queens
anthemic tunes alongside Brian Mays
virtuoso guitarist mercury poured his
heart and soul into his performances and
helped the band sell out stadiums
worldwide
number one Robert Plant Led Zeppelin
this rock God was as famous for his
onstage moans and screams as for his
wild offstage
plant enhanced Led Zeppelin’s repertoire
with his lyrical contributions but it
was his emotional and bluesy vocal range
that was simply unrivaled and when
combined with Jimmy Page’s incomparable
guitar solos it was a match made in Hard
Rock heaven with his energy dance moves
and sex appeal plant truly came alive in
concert and showed a whole lot of love
to the crowd
