Bruno P. Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 (edited) It isnt easy due to the rasp, pitch wise it's nothing groundbreaking. Even the rasp, most dont do because it can fuck up vocal chords pretty bad. I believe thats why Axl sounds awful nowadays. It's a technique that most know how to use but arent insane to overuse it. Even Bruce doesnt overuse it. I'm sure Myles knows how to sing like that but he doesnt care. Edited June 3, 2013 by Bruno Poeys
Guest NGOG Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 I completely disagree with the statement that Bumble is "technically" the better singer.Bumblefoot is still technically a better vocalist though. While Axl's voice garners more interest, Bumblefoot demonstrates superior consistency, clean vocals, care and preparation. The thing about Axl is that he completely discards the technicality of singing.
Guest NGOG Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Nobody sounds like Justin Bieber? What? The entire industry is moulded to produce countless Bieberesque clones. Nearly every latest male teen 'sensation' is grafted from that plastic Never Say Never fabric.It is absolutely ludicrous to say Axl is not one of the most unique selling vocals ever and it's equally wrong to say Bumblefoot is incapable of inducing emotion into his singing (see his song Father which reflects a harrowing personal angst about his father's health problems).

maynard Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Here you have ... the best singer ...sounds better than today's axl.
Ryan95 Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) Can't believe that this is a serious debate. Then again I being the ignorant person I am didn't even know bumblefoot was anything other than a guitarist. To me it's always going to be axl although obviously his voice is deteriorating more and more, his unique voice is the reason I got into guns in the first place.Just listened to father and yes he does have a really good voice but still just not as unique or as exciting as axl's. He sounds like a decent singer but I don't know just something missing, his voice just did not grab me when I heard it, I did not think wow who is this I need to hear more.

Nosaj Thing Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 How can someone say that current Axl sounds better than Bumblefoot? Bumblefoot is not my cup of tea but at least when he sings he does it well. Axl, in the other hand, sounds fuckin' awful and his voice is weak and cracked.
Bruno P. Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) Tommy can sing better than Axl. Cant wait to hear Going Down. Even I can currently sing better than Axl. Not as awful as him I'm sure... Edited June 4, 2013 by Bruno Poeys
SoulMonster Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Tommy can sing better than Axl. Cant wait to hear Going Down.Even I can currently sing better than Axl. Not as awful as him I'm sure...Heh, why don't you upload a video of you singing Welcome to the Jungle, then, so we can compare who we would prefer in GN'R, you or Axl Rose
Bruno P. Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I don't want to join GnR. I'm no legendary rock singer but even my 10 years old brother can sound better than him today. Wait, if I replace Axl I'd make him sign a contract and only perform under certain circunstances, including a certain amount of rehearsal time a week. I'd make him less boring and more ambitious. I'd make him do what he's been claiming for several years - move on, move forward. You'd thank me.
SoulMonster Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I don't want to join GnR. I'm no legendary rock singer but even my 10 years old brother can sound better than him today.I am betting than neither you or your brother could replace Axl on stage and do better than him singing those exact songs he is singing night after night for 2.5 hour plus. The fact that you are even claiming such a ludicrous thing without backing it up is hilarious .
Bruno P. Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I can sing better than him but I've got a strep throat.

Bruno P. Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I don't want to sound like Axl at Bridge School. You understand me?
SoulMonster Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I don't want to sound like Axl at Bridge School. You understand me? The first night was awful, but I still don't think you would have done a better job .
Bruno P. Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 But I can't prove my point because I've got a strep throat. All you have to do is wait. We're used to it, we'll be fine.
SoulMonster Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 But I can't prove my point because I've got a strep throat. All you have to do is wait. We're used to it, we'll be fine.Ah come on. We can just compare you to the Bridge School performance
Bruno P. Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 My strep throat is getting worse. Can't speak at all let alone sing Welcome to the Crazy Jungle.
SoulMonster Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 My strep throat is getting worse. Can't speak at all let alone sing Welcome to the Crazy Jungle.It seems you are about ready to record that voice, then.
Bruno P. Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) I can try to sing " you... me". Hold on. Meanwhile I've found the perfect title for the song that Axl sung that day.Welcome to the (Are You?) Crazy Jungle. Sounds good. Edited June 4, 2013 by Bruno Poeys
Nosaj Thing Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I can sing better than him but I've got a strep throat. :rofl-lol: I don't want to sound like Axl at Bridge School. You understand me? The first night was awfulAre you actually saying that Bridge School was awful? Oh man, I'm surprised.
