Who was the best frontman: Layne Staley, Kurt Cobain, Chris Cornell or Eddie Vedder?

[Im Still Ballin]

I can't decide between Staley and Cornell.

Cornell had the pipes and the range. Staley had a lot of harmony, but I think a lot of his singing was always complimented by Cantrell singing in the background which may have helped his tone.


Cornell
Staley
Vedder
Cobain

is how I have it.

This.

Cobain is garbage tier. He really had no actual talent for anything. If he didnt have heart throb hair, the vid for Teen Spirit probably never blows up and Nirvana ends up being a completely forgettable band which is what they should have been based on their music. Theyre honestly not good at all.

IMO.

Nobody better.

Kurt Cobain number 1 and who cares about the rest? They are all boring as hell. Not even worth ranking.

You also gotta give Kurt credit for faking his death and then a few years later coming back reinventing himself as Eminem. It was a brilliant move.
