Michael Kiske is a singer best known as the former lead vocalist for the German power metal band Helloween. I admire his vocal skills - his vocal technique has no weak spots (almost). But he has 'sweetness' in the voice.

And I laugh hard every time I read that Symptom of the Universe was the first thrash song.
3 ZP Theart

Her voice isn't aggressive but it's more powerful than Sharon and Simone voices and this slightly changes the perception of her voice - I mean, Tarja voice isn't that "easy listening".

Timo Antero Kotipelto is the vocalist of the Finnish power metal band Stratovarius and is the creator and vocalist of the power metal band Kotipelto. His voice matches good with instrumental music. Because Stratovarius
