That made me chuckle.

Out of interest, who would any of you have chosen as best frontman of all time?

The Kasabian singer, probably. He's got an amazing presence on stage, and he can sing some proper tunes.

hahaha

I would've chosen Ian McCulloch. He was a great frontman, plus his opinions towards other bands is just as blunt as Liam Gallaghers. In fact it earned him the nickname "Mac the Mouth".

Ian, unsurprisingly, is an admirer of Oasis, especially Liam. He's been quoted as saying: "From when Oasis first started I thought, "Thank Christ someone has picked up on that simple technique of saying they're the best thing on the planet and just fronting it." Liam is a part of a great ancestry of lippy, insecure bastard frontmen".

hmm I beg to differ. Your description seem to apply perfectly for Brian Molko or Matthew Belamy though, I probably would've chosen one of those two.

I see your point, but allow me to point out that the Kasabian frontman took EMPIRE, arguably one of the best albums of the past 40 years, to some serious level of sheer aceness. NME recently quoted none other than Ian Brown saying that the last time he attended a Kasabian gig he reminded him of himself and The Roses at their Spike Island best. That's no mean feat, you know?

1. Rick Witter
2. Miles Hunt
3. Mark Morriss
4. Martin Rossiter
5. James McColl.

You rank Rick Witter higher than Mark Morris? What's wrong with you? No Brett Anderson on that list?

Pookie · 03.27.2010, 04:21 PM

I've no idea what you're all talking about.

Aside from Miles Hunt I have no idea who these people are.

Adrian Belew is probably one of my favourite frontmen. He was loose and eccentric which was juxtaposed nicely with the stoicism of Robert Fripp.

Genteel Death · 03.27.2010, 04:56 PM

The wildest on stage is surely Edwyn Collins. I saw him years ago at the Astoria, and I have really fond memories of the moment when he played ''A Girl Like You'' and went on to piss on all the people standing on the front row after that. Priceless.

loubarret · 03.27.2010, 05:00 PM

mark stewart is a great frontman

theallelusive · 03.27.2010, 07:48 PM

Can't wait to see him get wasted and embarrass himself.

Oh, Collins was the man back in the day. And combining his rich, velvety voice with that guitar sound. Peerless, to this day. These modern frontmen and women really could learn some lessons from old Edwin 'Edwin Edwin' Collins-Edwin.

What about Pete Voss? He re-defined mildly surly-looking sneers TWICE in one career. We certainly wouldn't remember that other wild-child of frontmenary, Gavin Goodwin, quite so fondly if it weren't for Voss' trailblazing innovations.
