The Top Ten
1 Messiah Marcolin (Candlemass) Messiah Marcolin, also known as Eddie Marcolin, is a Swedish singer best known as the former vocalist for the doom metal band Candlemass. He's also known for his operatic voice.

His vocals are very operatic and are very good

He a great singer with a range of 4 octaves, 2 notes

3 Ronnie James Dio (Black Sabbath, Heaven & Hell) Ronnie James Dio (born Ronald James Padavona; July 10, 1942 – May 16, 2010) was an American heavy metal singer, songwriter and musician. He fronted and/or founded numerous groups including Elf, Rainbow, Black Sabbath, Dio and Heaven & Hell. He is credited with popularizing the "metal horns" hand gesture in metal culture and is known for his medieval themed lyrics. Dio possessed a powerful versatile vocal range capable of singing both hard rock and lighter ballads; according to Rainbow/Deep Purple guitarist Ritchie Blackmore upon hearing him sing, "I felt shivers down my spine." Dio sold over 47 million albums throughout his career. He died from stomach cancer in 2010 at the age of 67.

He only did like one doom metal song and that is a christmas song God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

If Ozzy is a Doom Metal vocalist then so is Dio

i would put him number 1 on this list since he is my favorite singer on this list but he isn't primarily a Doom Singer so I put others above him.

4 Glenn Danzig (Danzig) Glenn Danzig is an American singer, songwriter, and musician from Lodi, New Jersey. He is the founder of the bands Misfits, Samhain and Danzig. He owns the Evilive record label as well as Verotik, an adult-oriented comic book publishing company.

He is also the best Punk Rock vocalist if you ask me (he was in Misfits)

5 Johan Längqvist (Candlemass)

The new record is great. Johan kills it and is a great fit for Candlemass

The best period.

6 Tony Martin (Black Sabbath)

Same with Dio not primarily a Doom singer but has sang on a few

7 Thomas Gabriel Fischer (Celtic Frost) Thomas Gabriel Fischer, earlier known by his stage name of Tom G. Warrior, is a Swiss metal musician. He best known as the frontman for extreme metal bands Hellhammer, Celtic Frost, and Triptykon.

I don't want people to forget that Celtic Frost, Hellhammer and Triptykon really changed so many styles in metal...for the better..And he's the reason for that evolution...Mind you, he collaborated with MANY artists and did magic that way as well...:-)

8 Jonas Renkse (Katatonia) Jonas Petter Renkse is a founding member, songwriter, lead vocalist and ex-drummer of the band Katatonia, founding member, songwriter, bassist, backing vocalist, ex-guitarist of the band Bloodbath.
