...may be others to add in the following weeks, 'music taste is ever-expanding!!!! The irony is though I used to listen to a ton of death/thrash/black/power/symphonic/doom/sludge/melodic/etc./WHATEVER metal, though not really anymore....lol.
I just wanted to praise everyone that commented for not posting Blood on the Dance Floor as a suggestion. My faith in humanity has went up just a bit because of that lol.
Some that may/may not have been mentioned that I enjoy:
Don't know about YOU, but I'm am un CHIEN Andalucia.
I've probably already replied to this thread in some way, but I've been mentally compiling a list of my favorite singers lately. So here's Mino's top 5 singers:
1. Tim Buckley - With an impressive range, both vocal and stylistic, I've never heard a voice quite like Tim Buckley's. His early works were mostly folk and jazz influenced, but his works took a striking turn for the avant-garde with Lorca and Starsailor in 1970. His later works returned to more traditional genres such as funk and soul, but several of his vocal performances during his avant-garde period are some of my favorite recordings.
Song to the Siren, one of his earlier works (though it was actually recorded during his avant-garde period) (also check out This Mortal Coil's cover of this sometime)
I Woke Up, definitely a more avant-garde piece
2. Guy Picciotto - The voice that (arguably) precipitated the emo genre. And not the whiny **** that became popular in the 2000s. Picciotto came out of the 80s DC hardcore scene, and is especially known for his own band Rites of Spring and for being a member of Fugazi (with the hardcore icon Ian MacKaye of Minor Threat.) His impassioned vocal style breathes incredible life into these hardcore songs.
For Want Of, from Rites of Spring's eponymous 1985 album.
Last Chance for a Slow Dance, from Fugazi's 1993 album In On The Kill Taker.
3. Bj?rk - As Thom Yorke put it, "A voice that's very sexual, but at the same time very childlike. Very vicious and powerful, but [with] no sense that she'd ever do damage." This Icelandic artist has had a rather long career spanning several different genres as well. While not the first band she was a member of, she first achieved some fame while with the post-punk group The Sugarcubes. She went on to even more success with the release of her first solo album in 1993. Her solo music is typically oriented towards some form of electronic pop.
Birthday, the first single released by The Sugarcubes.
Alarm Call, from 1997's Homogenic.
4. Paul Westerberg - Westerberg was working as a janitor in Minneapolis when he happened to hear a group of younger kids practicing. I'll cut out a longer story here and say that he joined them and they became The Replacements, the best rock group (in my opinion) to come out of my hometown Twin Cities. (Sorry H?sker D?.) These guys perfectly understood what it was like to be a teenager, in fact their bassist Tommy Stinson was only 17 when they released their most famous album. The angst and joy and all the confusion come through hugely in Westerberg's tortured howl. He truly had a voice made for rock and roll.
Sixteen Blue, from 1984's Let It Be.
Alex Chilton, from 1987's Please To Meet Me.
5. Jeff Mangum - 1998's In The Aeroplane Over The Sea by Neutral Milk Hotel was a milestone in indie music, and Mangum's nasally, plaintive voice is a major component in this album's wonderful, unique sound. I don't care how many vinyl reissues of this album are sold by Urban Outfitters to wannabe hipsters, I will always love this guy and this album.
3. Bj?rk - As Thom Yorke put it, "A voice that's very sexual, but at the same time very childlike. Very vicious and powerful, but [with] no sense that she'd ever do damage." This Icelandic artist has had a rather long career spanning several different genres as well.

Bj?rk is a very good singer. Have you seen her in Dancer in the Dark? Though I thought the movie wasn't really my cup of tea, I thought that Bj?rk's song in that movie was just phenomenal.

I watched that 1 year ago, and I have to say that it must be the most heartbreaking movie I have ever seen. I'm no massive fan of the soundtrack though, but that's mostly because I don't like collaborations. Scatterheart is amazing though.
Oh my god I thought only my dad, brothers, and I knew of Carach Angren! Hahaha their music is amazing ^^. I love it. It blends black metal with orchestra elements and it sounds great.
Darkthrone is too "raw" for my taste. I don't listen to them often but I enjoy them when I do.
Other than that, I actually know of the other bands you mentioned (except for Taake), but haven't had the time to listen to them yet. ^^
I have been a little bit obsessed with Haggard lately.
YESH for Carach Angren!! That band is just effortlessly brilliant at symphonic stuff, and creepy recital-like lyrics.
Well, TNBM usually sounds raw, but yeah I do appreciate what you think about Darkthrone sound Taake is raw-sounding as well, but more melodic, you may like their material
Damn, how come I never came across Haggard earlier?!? Am going to hear more material from them!!
