Most Unusual Voices In Rock Music Today
The most unusual and unique voices in rock music today...He's not the best vocalist but he has something special in his voice which is never boring. I mean nobody can imitate him. Every time I listen to him, the way he sings makes me wanna cry and gives me goosebumps,I can hear the pain in his voice too (example: the dream synopsis by the last shadow puppets). He's a very talented musician and u know what? There are a lot of singers in America (example: Selena Gomez and almost all the singers of our generation) who don't have a clue how to sing. I mean do u prefer listening to Justin Bieber or listening to Alex Turner?
Alex Turner of the Arctic Monkeys might not have the biggest range in the world but this guy certainly has one unusual style of singing his humorous lyrics.
Maybe he is not the great voice but whEn he sings he makes you feel. He could melt you. His style, the way he sings...
His voice is the best
Unique range, probably the widest range in music history:
Vocal/melodic range - 6 octaves, 1/2 note (Eb1 to E7).
Sings: Alternative metal, Avant-garde metal, Experimental metal, death metal (early).
Jack White has one of the most unique voices and guitar playing style in the world. A true genius who made the blues cool again to this generation.
His tonal versatility is so unique that most of his songs sound like duets - as if there are 2 completely different singers. It sounds awesome because he switches skillfully from harsh demonic tone to beautiful, soft, angelic and melancholic voice (and vice versa). And it happens in less than a second! I've never heard anything like that. Add to this his godly range, immense power and control (even live). This is also the most emotive and expressive voice I've ever heard.
Check out:
Demons And Wizards - My Last Sunrise, Love's Tragedy, Crimson King;
Blind Guardian - Sacred Worlds, Majesty, Time What Is Time, Fly, The Curse Of Feanor, Otherland.
Overall, he's one of the elite rock/metal singers today. His skills place him in one league with Freddie, Steve Perry, Chris Cornell, Michael Kiske, Rob Halford, Axl Rose, to name a few of his caliber.
Marc not only can sound like Freddie Mercury, but a number of other singers as well. Listen to his "Mercurotti" video on YouTube, for an example. He had his own Christian rock band, "downhere," for about 15 years and won a LOT of awards. He has his own albums out as well, in which he sings his own songs as well as covers of other artists' songs. He's just about THE most versitile singer out there today.
2017, He started his own Queen tribute show called The Ultimate Queen Celebration, which tours all over the world, including an upcoming Australia/New Zealand run in 2018. But Marc does not only lend his voice to rock and roll crowds, but also recently to symphony halls as he fronts Symphonic Queen with the Philharmonic Orchestra of México (OFUNAM) in Mexico City.
He sounds like Freddie Mercury - literally. As a bonus, he also looks like Freddie.
He is a lead singer for the official Queen tribute band called The Queen Extravaganza. Queen Extravaganza was an idea of Roger Taylor and Brian May (Queen members), and they personally selected the members of the tribute band after a very tough world-wide contest. The auditions for The Queen Extravaganza were originally submitted online and over 2 million were reviewed.
Ronnie Radke of Falling in Reverse has a unique and hardcore voice irrespective of what he sings. Metal, rock, hip hop... This guy is singing everything now a days. But whatever he sings... He does it with lots of power and swagg...
King of the music scene
In addition to his work with the band, Bostwick is also recognized for his collaborations with other artists. Notably, he worked with the SEGA Sound Team on the game Sonic Frontiers in 2022.

Kellin Quinn of Sleeping with Sirens has quite a unique voice for a guy. One could never make out that it's a guy singing the songs if he never heard of sleeping with sirens. Kellin sounds a little girly but he has got one hell of a hardcore voice which goes up like an angel...
I HATE IT SO MUCH WHEN PEOPLE SAY KELLIN SOUNDS LIKE A GIRL! I'm a girl who apparently can sing and I have like no vocal range. Kellin has the beautiful voice of an angel...
KELLIN doesn't SOUND LIKE A GIRL, GIRLS SOUND LIKE KELLIN QUINN
Kellin Quinn has such a unique voice for a male vocalist. It is near impossible to replicate. He does sound akin to a girl, however, this is what makes him stand out.
Beauty and The Beast, 2 in 1.
Brandon Flowers of the Killers has one of the most emotional and soulful voices in rock... Which is also pretty unique sounding. No one could sing when you were young with the same emotion that he does.
Unique and rare type of voice - baritenor (baritone's voice, tenor's range). Sounds awesome. Hypnotizing voice. A very dark combination of Jim Morrison, Ozzy and Elvis.
Songs: How The Gods Kill, Mother.
A voice with (almost) operatic power. Louder than usual.
Check out: Melancholy, Dracula, Dante's Inferno (by Iced Earth).
Andrew Stockdale has got to have one of the biggest ranges in rock today. The Aussie has quite a unique sounding voice which kinda sounds orgasmic...
His range is not very wide but he's good in the higher register. I agree his voice sounds orgasmic and it's pretty unique. Reminds me of Robert Plant.
His vocal/melodic range: 2 octaves, 5-1/2 notes (B2 to G#5).
Julian Casablancas and his band the Strokes! They are responsible of making indie rock cool and popular. Julian is known for his beautiful melodies and lyrics and his unusual way of singing them.
17#! What! He should be number one, that guy has such a beautiful unusual voice!
I like listening to acoustic versions of Foster the People music, where you can really focus on Mark's voice and the lyrics. He's got an interesting range from tenor to falsetto, and a cute laugh. I'm no music critic, just enjoying the sounds of the guitar, bass, percussion and that voice.
Mark's voice is impossible to miss. I bet no one has a voice similar to his. (ps. the first time my mother listened to Helena Beat my mother thought Mark was a girl... )
He can do both clean vocals and growls, and very often he switches between them within one song. Sometimes he sings on the borderline and this technique sounds really cool and interesting (example - 'Sacrificial' by Moonspell).
His clean voice is hypnotizing and unusually low for rock and metal, where higher voices are preferred.
Adam Levine of the Maroon 5 has one of the sexiest male voices today. Its near impossible to replicate his voice and accent with which he sings his songs.
Absolutely nothing special here, let alone unusual or unique.
FREDDIE MERCURY!
Need I say more? Freddie Mercury is all you need! He was/is/and forever will be the very best Ever!
Freddie's voice was so unusual b/c it was PERFECT! He had a 4 octave range and his voice was absolutely gorgeous!
What don't you get in "today"?
Rocco deluca might be pretty quite underrated however, that can't take away the fact that he has got one of the most soulful and beautiful voices in rock today. A true gift... Of a voice...
Emily rocks. She can go from lyrical ballads to grunge in a single breath. I don't think there is another single female rocker like her out there. And she is self-taught, on top of it.
Emily Armstrong and her band Dead Sara is quite new and underrated but this tall lady has the most hardcore voices I've ever heard... Her voice can go as high as her height.
