Now if you want to get on the subject of his influence, then I'll be more than happy to PM you about it. But seeing as how this doesn't relate to the topic at hand, I'm not gonna bother posting why, just to be hasseled by mods.
Mike Patton is not on the list because he doesn't belong on the list- being in many bands doesn't make him a better frontman. If anything, the oppositte. He may be a good singer, but he is not as good a frontman as Lemmy or Ozzy or Jimi or someone.
(You may very well say the same about Pelle Amqvist or Ville Valo... they were really just to see how many people would vote for them. Thankfully, it seems most people are smarter than that).
