Classically Trained Musician Weighs in on Metal Vocalists

Choice quote, on Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden:

He achieves an intensely rhythmic delivery of the lyrics without losing legato and musical momentum, something a lot of classical singers struggle with, especially when interpreting the many staccato and accent markings that crowd scores by Bellini, Donizetti, etc.

(via utnereader)

The list also features Ronnie James Dio, King Diamond, Ozzy Osbourne, and Rob Halford. Very cool.
