Guy was a talent for sure, but "greatest"?

C'mon.

His was a decade of legends (Vedder, Staley, Cornell, Hoon, Robinson, Keenan, etc.); not to be callous, but Scott and STP were a 90s B Team (brilliance of ILS excepted). My take, obviously, all subjective.

Few did. Kevin Martin is up there with the best frontmen I've seen. Top 5, easy.

Sorry i'm laughing at this too

But then again i saw most metal bands in their prime ie: Crue,Scorps,Ozzy,VH,AC/DC,Maiden,Metallica,Anthrax,Queensryche, Priest ect.

That's how I feel about a lot of stuff.

When you get to see some bands when they truly kicked ass, the stuff from the 90s just seems kind of 'meh.

48 years old. The dude lived about 20 years longer than most would have thought. Some may say he died too young, but that's really not true. He lived way past his expiration date imop.

None of those bands is a "metal" band IMO... Rock yeah, maybe even "hard rock," but metal??? Slayer, Dark Throne, Deicide, Cannibal Corpse, Morbid Angel, etc were the metal bands of the 90's.

Lots of types of Metal though.

Death. Doom. Speed. Hair.

It's a wide genre.

Still remember how "Plush" plagiarized Pearl Jam.

Dude, you call STP a B team, yet you have Shannon Hoon as a legend? Only because he died after one hit.

That's for another debate

Times have changed. What once was called metal is now called rock. Different versions of metal, speed,thrash, glam, power ect

Every band you've mentioned I've seen live

But I don'l consider Tom G Warrior/Fischer a great frontman

Shout at the Devil was a metal album when it came out

Pain Killer is still a metal album

Thin Lizzy

You're accessment is spot on.

Tool and Pearl Jam played arenas and still do.

STP was a 3000 seat venue act, and never an arena level band.

and pearl jam plagiarized nirvana. ive heard it all. think the reality is it was just the local seattle sound.

Plush has a unique intro using inversion chords.

Pearl Jam sounded nothing like Nirvana, at all. First were blues-based hard rockers, second were a more rock/punk hybrid. Vocals were night and day. Never heard that charge before.

In fact, all four of the big Seattle "grungers" had very different sounds.

These latter-day genre/sub-genre busybodies can fuck right off. Priest, Sabbath, Maiden, Dio, Chains, Tool, Soundgarden, all metal to me. Even much of the hairstuff, far as I care.
