I don't mind Dave Mustaine's voice that much. But his singing style is very good. Even many singers like - Geddy Lee, Billie Joe Armstrong, Ozzy Osbourne have bad voices. But they sometimes sang with the rhythm, good style. But Dave can't do that.
Dave Mustaine's vocals sound so whiny and rushed in all honesty.
