Top 10 Rock, Punk and Metal Singers that Sound Similar to Other Singers

These Rock and metal singers sound similar to other singers intentionally or not. If there's any I forgot feel free to add them.
The Top Ten
1 Marc Martel (Freddie Mercury)

Find this on youtube: Queen Extravaganza on American Idol - Somebody to Love (HQ). He also looks like Freddie as you can see in the picture - it's Marc and not Freddie.
Also, check out the list Best Songs on Marc Martel's Impersonator.

2 Tobias Sammet (Bruce Dickinson) Tobias Sammet is a German metal musician, best known as the vocalist and primary songwriter of the power metal band Edguy, as well as the founder, main singer and bassist of the metal opera Avantasia.

There are so many similarities between them that I even made a list
Top 10 Edguy Songs that Could Be on Iron Maiden Albums (you only need to play the song samples to be convinced).
Tobias Sammet is closer to Bruce Dickinson than Michael Kiske (Kiske has no aggression in the voice).

3 Glenn Danzig (Jim Morrison) 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.

Try the song Mother by Danzig.

4 Shaun Morgan (Kurt Cobain) Shaun Morgan Welgemoed, known publicly as Shaun Morgan, is a South African musician and singer for the post-grunge/alternative metal band Seether.

Listen to any of their Nirvana covers and you tell me that he doesn't similar to Kurt at all.

5 Andrew Stockdale (Robert Plant) Andrew James Stockdale is an Australian rock musician, singer and songwriter best known as the lead vocalist, lead guitarist and only mainstay member of the rock band Wolfmother, which formed in 2000. In 2007, alongside his Wolfmother bandmates, he won 'Songwriter of the Year' at the APRA Awards.

Very similar high and orgasmic voice. Try these songs: Wolfmother - Back Round, Cosmic Egg.

The singer of Greta Van Fleet sounds closer to me

6 Mark Tornillo (Brian Johnson)

Try Pandemic by Accept.

7 Wes Scantlin (Kurt Cobain) Wesley Reid "Wes" Scantlin is an American songwriter, lead singer, guitarist, and the only remaining founding member of the American post-grunge band Puddle of Mudd.

He sounds somewhat similar to Kurt.

8 Micheal Kiskie (Bruce Dickinson)

Yes, Michael Kiske was influenced by Bruce Dickinson and sometimes sounds like him. But Tobias Sammet is even closer to Bruce Dickinson.

9 Tobias Sammet (Michael Kiske) Tobias Sammet is a German metal musician, best known as the vocalist and primary songwriter of the power metal band Edguy, as well as the founder, main singer and bassist of the metal opera Avantasia.

Tobias Sammet sounds like Bruce Dickinson meets Michael Kiske.

10 John Bush (Layne Staley) John Bush is a singer who was first in the band Armored Saint however he then went on to join Anthrax after they got Joey Belladonna their last singer out of the band. John Bush then left Anthrax in 2005 though briefly rejoined in 2009 only to leave again in 2010

This was requested by Christiangrant and I kind of agree with it.

The Contenders
11 Billie Joe Armstrong (Johnny Rotten) Billie Joe Armstrong is an American musician, singer, songwriter, and actor who is best known as the lead vocalist, primary songwriter, and guitarist of the punk rock band Green Day, which he co-founded with Mike Dirnt. He's also in side-project groups such as The Network, Foxboro HotTubs, Pinhead Gunpowder, and The Longshot. His first group was a band called The Lookouts which disbanded after their 2nd album. He released a solo album consisting of covers in 2020 called "No Fun Mondays" ranging from rock and punk covers. He has a 2 and a half octave vocal ranger, but over time in 2020 and onwards his range has gotten slightly higher. Most notably in their Father Of All album, and during various ...read more.

Johnny Rotten of the legendary Sex Pistols was the first true punk sounding voice with that snarling, snotty, aggresive, totally viseral vocal delivery. Billie is good, but I wish people nowadays knew more "punk" than Green Day.

12 Scott Stapp (Chad Kroeger) Scott Stapp is an American singer, songwriter, and musician, known as the lead vocalist and lyricist of hard rock bands Creed and Art of Anarchy. He also has two solo albums: The Great Divide and Proof of Life.

They don't sound alike at all Scott sounds like Eddie Vedder, with a little bit Scott Weiland and Layne Staley.

Their vocals sound somewhat similar.

And Both Are Terrible!

13 M. Shadows (David Draiman) Matthew Charles Sanders, better known by his stage name M. Shadows, is an American musician, best known as the lead vocalist, songwriter and founding member of the American metalcore/alternative metal band Avenged Sevenfold.

Not as good as David though.

14 Burton Cummings (Robert Plant)

Cummings even admitted that he had tried to sound like Plant in an interview.

15 Jonny Hetherington (Adam Gontier)

They sound similar to me.

16 Pierre Bouvier (Tyson Ritter) Pierre Charles Bouvier (Born May 9, 1979) is a French-Canadian musician and composer, best known as the vocalist and frontman for the pop-punk band Simple Plan.

In my opinion they do sound somewhat similar.

17 Lzzy Hale (Amy Lee) Elizabeth Mae "Lzzy" Hale is an American singer, songwriter, and musician. She is best known as the lead singer and rhythm guitarist of the American hard rock band Halestorm, which she co-founded in 1997.

Hmm, they don't sound similar to me.

Somewhat similar.

18 Benjamin Burnley (Chester Bennington) Benjamin Jackson Burnley IV is an American musician, composer, and producer, best known as the founder and frontman of the American rock band Breaking Benjamin.

Maybe it's just me but they scream very similar.

19 Oliver Krajewski (Brandon Flowers)

Oliver Krajewski is the lead singer of German power metal band "Firestorm" And Brandon Flowers is the lead singer of the band The Killers, alternative pop band. Their voice is quite same.

20 Henry Rollins (Dez Cadena)

A lot of people get these two confused for one another on Black Flag songs.

21 Brendon Urie (Patrick Stump) Brendon Boyd Urie, more commonly known as Brendon Urie, was born April 12, 1987, in St. George, Utah.

22 Glenn Hughes (Doyle Bramhall II) Glenn Hughes is an English rock bassist and vocalist, best known as a member of Deep Purple and the rock pioneers Trapeze, and his solo career. Hughes was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Deep Purple. He is acclaimed for his wide vocal range.

@BrianScott01: Sail Away by Deep Purple might be a tricky example because 2 people provide lead vocals - lead singer David Coverdale (lower, baritone voice, 1st verse) and bassist Glenn Hughes (higher voice).

The first time I heard Sail Away by Deep Purple I thought it was Bramhall Jr singing.

23 Bobby “Blitz” Ellsworth (Steve “Zetro” Souza)
