Oh, I didn't mean to insinuate that. Queen was traditional rock n' roll with recent (70s) influences. They influenced people who came after them, of course.
Like I said, it's impressive to find technically proficient metal singers. The same with grunge, where the vocal creativity of Chris Cornell helped set Soundgarden ahead of most of the rest.

Too right you are about Queen.
Chris Cornell (RIP) was an outstanding singer with incredible range.
You know who absolutely cannot sing for sh*t, but I still dig him? Lemmy of Motorhead. I mean, its not even singing is it? More like guttural howls. Well, even so I still dig Lemmy and Motorhead, even if that makes me a bad person!

Watched the Crue movie twice this weekend. It’s pretty incredible these guys are still alive after all they’ve done to their bodies. Unreal.

I was totally underwhelmed by this movie, which had an undergraduate film school feel about it.
One could tell a story about drunken debauchery in 40 minutes, it doesn't need a two hour movie.
These type of hagiographic film attempts are rarely that interesting, although I forgot that Vince Neil killed Razzle of Hanoi Rocks in a drunk driving accident, and that Nikki Sixx died from a heroin overdose and was brought back to life with a shot of adrenaline straight to the heart in the back of the ambulance. Overall, these guys were just dirtbags.
The best rock film I have seen in the last two decades was Some Kind of Monster (Metallica) which tells a an interesting and compelling story, putting the band in a vulnerable light, and does not treat the band in a hagiographic, caricatured, hero-worship kind of way, which is what a lot of the films in this kind of genre tend do.
