dekza Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 I think Axl deserves to be in the Top 10 because he used to be great in the golden days of GnG. But he totally destroyed his own reputation. Now he's just an asshole. My list: 1. Freddie Mercury 2. Jim Morrison 3. Kurt Cobain 4. Mick Jagger 5. Robert Plant 6. John Lennon 7. Zack de la Rocha 8. Matt Bellamy 9. Thom Yorke 10. Axl Rose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnyColourYouLike Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 at Axl. No way in hell he's better than Bruce Dickinson.

Finn. Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 This is stupid, Freddie Mercury is better than Axl, the same Axl said a lot of times that Freddie Mercury is a Rock God and he (Rose) is only shit compared with him (Mercury). Bellamy 8th and up! Anyway those list are ever very personal and subjetive. (But Axl is the first position is a crime) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tesseract Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Whether or not you agree with Muse's direction as of late, how does that make Bellamy a "shit" frontman? Sure they aren't as energetic as they used to be as a whole, but still...he's still way more entertaining to watch than most (or all) current frontmen in rock.
