Bad vocals can definately ruin a good song. A lot of new metal have those completely brutal vocals that make me think of a dinosaur having a bowel movement. I don't understand the appeal of that.......but to each his own.
Robert Plant was obviously a major player in Zepplin, didn't forget him I just try to stray away from the vocalists when comparing great acts. I find people with little knowledge or appreciation tend to jump straight to the lead singer when talking music so I like the arrogant S.O.B that I am...

Going back here I don't think snow removal is more important than BYC, however replacing things that are completely functional bothers me when it is something that it perfectly preventable, like removing snow. Maybe I am a bit of a maintenance psycho but I really try...
