NOMINATIONS: Best 90's Century Frontman Survivor!

[Ignatius]

Ok, I'm back with the best 90's frontman nominations thread. This is going to be so much fun!!

In case someone missed the previous survivor thread, this is a thread in which you will first nominate 10 frontman from the 90's, the top 10 amongst all nominations will enter our frontman survivor. Then, you will vote off one frontman per round until we have a winner. So far, the HTGTH members have voted Chris Cornell as the best 21st century frontman. Now we focus in the 90's.

A few reminders/rules before you post your nominees.


1.- 10 nominations each would be ideal. The more we have, the better. If you can't supply that many, 6 will be the minimum allowed then.

2.- Use your own judgement to decide if a frontman should be nominated for this or other decades. For Example, Axl Rose, Bono, Jagger, Jon Bon Jovi...they could fit in two or three (Jagger) decades. You will only get one chance to nominate him, so make sure you've thought where would you like to place him. If you nominate Axl Rose now, you won't be able to nominate him in the 80's survivor...I think you get the point.

3.- You can't nominate Chris Cornell as he was our previous winner. He's already entered the All time Survivor Finale.

4.- I'm gonna cut it down to 10 nominees. Last round we had 15 and it took longer than I had anticipated.

5.- Most of the nominees will be mainstream, but that doesn't mean unknown artists are not welcome. This is based on majority, but you never know. Besides, we all appreciate reading everyone's input.

6.- The frontman may also play an instrument. It doesn't have to be a pure frontman like Axl, Weiland or Morrison.

7.- Band minimum of three players please.

I think that's all. If I remember something, I'll post it later.

If anybody needs a bit of refreshing, the following is a random list I came out with in 2 minutes. There are tons of frontmen to choose from....this is just a few names I've thrown.

7.- Band minimum of three players please.

Well, this is tricky. Solo artists are not frontman because they don't have a band to front. It reads stupid, but that's the best reason I could give you. There's a few exceptions such as Trent Reznor or Beck. NIN is a solo effort, although on tour Reznor brings his own band. Moby and Beck could be alike examples, but they don't really look like frontman. Reznor on the other hand...

Anyway, is really up to you.

I liked Metallica's 90's material the best, but thats just me. I say that we should save Axl for the 80's caus think about it, AFD, best GN'R album, late 80's.
