    Halford is definitely a wicked vocalist.. Bruce Dickinson is fucking amazing too, great range. For pure screaming though, few can beat Tom Araya..

    The dude from Pantera will never be beat. But he is followed closely by Randy Blithe from Lamb of God.

    My first post was for clean vocals. For scratchy I would go with:
    Attila Csiha

    - Mark Boals
    - Rob Halford
    - James LaBrie
    - Sebastian Bach
    - Phil Anselmo

    It's either Ronnie James Dio or Rob Halford if you're looking for range. But personally i think it's Bruce Dickinson! With an honourable mention to the very underrated Rob Rock.

    I like Rob Rock. Of the Impellitteri albums I have, I must say I prefer Rob Rock's voice over Graham Bonnet's, though, I like Bonnet, too.
