Listen to Open Wounds off Muertos Vivos, he sings quiet soft in that, and he fucking nails it. IMO he's a better singer then Cone.

I like Tom's voice. Even in backing vocals. But yeah, he either sings too loudly, or then hes mic is turned too loud.

I think it would be ubercool if Deryck and Cone would both be the lead singers. I mean like Tom DeLonge and Mark Hoppus back in Blink-182 days.

Are you kidding? "Muertos Vivos" is the new "Chuck"!
The album is a great heavy metal approached record for those punk guys, which is kinda like Sum's "Chuck", plus "Underground", a super heavy metal song, the heaviest on the record, definitely stands out as a heavy metal song kinda like The Bitter End, so i mean, some could say its not worth listening cuz its like a copy of Chuck, but actually its just a fun album in the same vein.
Even so I still think there shit, personal opinion; mean on offense to anyone

I definitely agree, about the singing too full force or whatever. It definitely, 100% makes sense.

It's really hard for a frontman to fall back into the shadows and be a backup vocalist. He also probably has his own creative differences of opinion on how it should sound - so when he gets to sing, he does what he wants.

No band should EVER have two frontmen.

I would have no respect for them, if they did that.

Yeah, its just not working with two frontmen, both of different bands.
Its like to create a supergroup with two powerful and big frontment, like Axl Rose and David Coverdale or something, it'll be too crazy, they'll probably fight all day long haha

But to be honest, i always thouht of Mark in Blink 182 as much as a frontman as Tom (DeLonge) was, although i'm pretty sure Tom is considered the frontman.

I love that I Hear You Calling song.

I'm not sure if I know any other Gob songs...but that shit was fun, catchy, and feel good. I love it.

Oh! Give Up the Grudge was them too, right? LOVED IT! It was so cliche and lame...but SO FUN. I wouldn't say I'm a Gob fan...but I certainly have no problem with them.

I really don't like Gob with the exception of like 3 songs.

I really think Tom needs to learn how to be a backing vocalist instead of a lead singer.

But Sum 41 is just encouraging by putting Deryck on the harmonies in With Me live.

I don't mind Tom's singing. Some songs it's good, some songs it's crap. As for Cone singing, he's got a pretty good voice (just judging by that one Operation M.D. song).
