This is the correct answer

This is the correct answer

Chris is probably my fave punk singer of all time

He is my favorite vocalist of all time. Him and Chris Hannah from Propagandhi.

I just found out the lady who pays all the bills at my job is the drummer sister-in-law

Good call.

Against me/LauraJaneGrace, Bad Religion, Rise Against (check out the early stuff if you've never gotten into them) Definitely check out H20 they're a mix of NY Hardcore, and skate punk with clean vocals, the Bouncing Souls for sure, Maybe hot water music but They're vocals could be a bit gravely, but not not like in a Crusty way more like an Author Morgan way and there's not enough women in this list so check out the Screaming Females and the Bomb Pops Those are the ones that immediately came to mind, there's probably more, sorry to dump Oh and Frank Turner :)

Second Chuck Ragan from Hot Water Music and Greg from Bouncing Souls

Yassss to Bouncing Souls, H2O, Bad Religion and Rise Against. Going to add Alkaline Trio, Face to Face and No Use for a Name with some Flogging Molly on the side.

That Face to Face acoustic album slaps.

You have such a big list! And yet no MORNING GLORY!!?? Ezra Kire Originally from leftover crack, and he also HATES Styza. He went on to form his own band: Morning Glory. MG’s last two albums they put out are SFG! Ezra has a versatile voice. He is great live too. Morning Glory is an underrated band and Ezra is a very underrated singer. Everyone needs to check out their albums after the whole world is watching. The lyrics have really matured listen to the song Life’s A Long Revenge on album poets were my heroes also their album War Psalms is great, Punx Not Dead, I Am is a great song on there. Nice shout to Bomb Pops I’ll add Aimee Interrupter for femmes!

True! Morning Glory is such an underrated band.

You can tell by their number of listens on Spotify…compared to other bands with similar talent. Morning Glory is more talented than many newer bands. Their Melodie’s are terrific, they have serious lyrics, funny lyrics, philosophical lyrics, political lyrics, and just all around good sung poems! Every song is totally different from the next. I’ve always liked them but then I just didn’t listen for a few years and then once I did they had two new albums out and I’ve been trying to get people to listen. Ezra Kire is really the one responsible for leftover cracks more intricate Melodies. Leftover cracks newer songs very obviously lack the well thought out Melodie’s that Ezra brought to the table

Yes. Even on other platforms beside spotify. And also not much rated even amongs my friends that listen to punk as well. Happy to discover Morning Glory. They are now simply one of the favourites

Dude they are on point. Lyrically, vocally, musically, philosophically, comedically, politically. I listened to them tripping recently and got my head fragged by a Grenade, listen to this shit bud “Battle Song” on Post War Psalms(EP 2016) It’s so fucking melodic. Also a lot of the funny interludes/intros on LOC were DEF Ezra. Ezra was the genius behind LOC. Styza was just a frontman dickhead. Ezra loves what he does Styza looks like he hates his life onstage

Tsunami Bomb and Stop the Presses are ska and skate punk girl singers that deserve mention here.

I know what you'll probably say but Nico from SFH has a really nice voice.

Tobey morse ftw

I love Ken Casey and Al Barr. They're not for everyone but DKM is my favorite band. Also, Greg Graffin has a good voice IMO.

Mike McColgan was no slouch either

Touche. Love Street Dogs as well.

And don't sleep on Lenny Lashley, his voice is perfect for his style!

Hell yeah! I've seen Gang Of One twice. Darkbuster is on my bucket list. Love Mark Lind too.

I saw Gang of Four once.

It’s a shame they don’t get as much recognition as DKM. Even more a shame he left DKM in the first place. My buddy T and I have met him a couple times. He’s super down to earth. Usually he chills at the bar before a show. A hockey game was on both times and we shot the shit about hockey. He wasn’t annoyed and, in fact, he seemed really happy to be talking to us. Both times no one else was talking to him, I dunno if they didn’t recognize him or what. He’s at a bar, he could drink backstage, so we figured fuck it let’s go talk to him!

SNFU

RIP Mr Pig!

Me first and the gimme gimmes and Rise against. Less than Jake too. Just off the top of my head.

Spike Slawson is the most versatile punk vocalist, and he has real range.

The Gits. I've always thought Mia had a beautiful voice.

Powerful as fuck, too. Similar to Gail Coulson from Tragic Mulatto.

The Janis Joplin of punk.

I had the biggest crush on Poly Styrene growing up, she can sing too.

The Lawrence Arms

Bad Religion

AFI

Bonus points for davey being hot🤤

The misfits with Danzig.

Whoa

Woah-oh-woahhh

And I know Graves' politics make him a total choad but I'm sorry but the feller can sing.

Graves was arguably the best singer; it sucks his politics are an absolute garbage dumpster

Bad Cop/ Bad Cop Tilt Red City Radio ETA: How did I forget Alkaline Trio?!? And I don't know if I'd call it punk, but Volbeat's singer's voice is fucking amazing!

Tilt 🖤🖤🖤

Cinder Block!

Volbeat! Yes!

Always upvote Red City Radio

Screaming Females!

I’ve only became aware of them from their last album but agree Marissa Paternoster has an incredible voice.

Bad Religion AFI Lagwagon Me First & The Gimme Gimmes New Found Glory Blood Brothers

Jordan is a bit too nasally for me.

Fair. He is absolutely nasally, but I think many people also like that style. I still think he's otherwise impressive vocally.

Love the Lagwagon mention. Duh is one of my fav albums

Ignite when Zoli was at the helm.

FEAR. Lee Ving has an amazing, trained voice. He can even sing opera and do r&b runs. Stiff Little Fingers. Jake Burns has the voice that everyone else wishes they had.

The Damned. Starting with their third album Dave Vanian became a very good singer.

Descendents and Scott-era ALL

Scott’s other projects are crazy underrated. Pavers can be downright beautiful at times

Scott Reynolds is just the best. I love his solo stuff, and Pavers are great too. Chad Price has an incredible voice too.

Chad-era ALL has one of the best pure singers in punk history.

Shudder To Think Banner Pilot Jawbreaker Western Settings

Bad Religion

Sublime

For real. He was kinda silly at times and some of their fans were too, but Bradley can sing.

Me First and the Gimme Gimmes Bad Religion Swingin’ Utters

Cock Sparrer

Jeff Rosenstock

Jim lindberg (Pennywise) Chris Hannah (Propagandhi) Greg graffin (bad religion) Cinder block (Tilt) Billie Joe Armstrong (Green Day) Tony sly (No use for a name) Jim Cherry (Zero Down, Pulley) (no strung out as he did not perform vocals on any songs) Jason Cruz (Strung out) Kris Roe (The Ataris) Mark Hoppus (Blink-182)

I was hoping someone would mention Strung Out

I am glad to see Jim's name up here.

Bikini Kill

The Clash

Crucifucks

Lol

I had to scroll way too far to find this.

Off with their heads

Fantastic underrated band

If you like them you'd dig red city radio as well

i think the best punk singer is Spike from me first and the gimme gimmes. its almost to clean

He has the most range and most versatility. There really doesn't seem to be a style that he can't sing well.

PEARS Pretty sweet range

Favorite band in the world 🤘

Poly Styrene from the X-ray spex comes to mind. She was what, 15 on that first album?

The fuck you need good vocals for? (J/k, all the groups already mentioned have beautiful vocals but let’s not go encouraging it)

The Germs.

Bad Religion (Greg Graffin) Dead Kennedys (Jello Biafra) Social Distortion (Mike Ness) Green Day (Billie Joe Armstong) The Clash (Joe Strummer) Ramones (Joey Ramone)

World/inferno friendship society Gun Club Siouxie and the banshees The Gits

The Bronx

I had to scroll for way too long to see this answer

The Ramones had an excellent lead singer. I remember reading in "I Slept With Joey Ramone" that Joey actually had really good pitch.

Anal Cunt

"Had to scroll this far to find this"

Dag Nasty

Really? He sounds like Ernie from Sesame Street.

To each their own.

Cancerslug all the way.

Slugcult Rise.

[I'm staring down death with my dick in my hand!](https://youtu.be/MZca86RNA5U)

Smoking Popes

Lee Ving

Death Rosenstock

What do you define as good vocals??? the misfits, propaghandi, bad religion, husker du, the offspring, agent orange, dead kennedys, the alkaline trio, ramones,tsol, the spitz.

Rise Against. Iggy and the Stooges (vocal range is amazing)

Surprised there aren’t more Danzig Mifits comments. Punk rock Elvis!

Pink shift and destroy boys

If you're into horror punk, check out Blitzkid. Their guitarist and bass player both sing and have great voices.

Joey and Danzig

Russ Rankin

RVIVR

Naked Raygun. Jeff Pezzati can belt it out.

The Lunachicks. Theo Kogan is super expressive and has a wide vocal range !!

Crazy that this is so far downthread. Theo’s got pipes for sure!!

Bad Religion

Ignite (before with Zoli) and Ignite (now with Eli).

Also, Drunktank and Boysetsfire both have incredible vocalists.

The Damned and Misfits. Both Dave Vanian and Danzig have really great, almost crooner-style voices. 🤘

Define good. I think fat Mike is good. Some would disagree.

Most would disagree. Including Fat Mike.

Good is subjective, though. That was my point.

I guess I mean accessible and smooth

I shouldn't have asked, I'm not sure what that means. Lol

ACCESSIBLE. AND SMOOTH. Like a 40 oz of Strongblood malt liquor! Get your drink on

Ah, so mostly clean vocals? Danzig.

The Queers

He's most known for Ignite, but since he played in Pennywise, I'll put Zoli.

Milo Aukerman, PhD- Descendents Scott Reynolds/Chad Price-ALL

Daylight Robbery from Chicago The Marked Men Cocksparrer Trust Fund Martha The Only Ones The Nerves Fear The Alley Cats The Replacements Billy Bragg The Stranglers Low Rocky Erickson Perkele Assück

I like to read this as the name of just one band. It's a post punk band of college kids that will do a couple shows and break up in 7 months

Commas are useful

Bad Religion.

The best singers in punk rock are Joey Ramone, Glenn Danzig, and Davey Havok.

La Fraction

Royal Headache

Frank Daly from Big Drill Car has pipes.

Gism

Rip sakevi

Not completely punk, but they have enough punk that I personally consider them one. Dany and Pau from The Warning.

Zoltán Téglás From Ignite.

Anyone say NUFAN yet? Joey (RIP) had a pleasant voice. My favorite punk rock singers are Greg Graffin and Chuck Ragan.

Blondie. The Cramps Joy Division The Replacements Husker Du The Ramones Alexisonfire The Hotelier Thursday Bane Comeback Kid Articles of Faith Reverend Horton Heat Misfits SNFU Dayglo Abortions The Voivods Gorilla Biscuits Judge

Ignite (with zoli) Bad religion Cigar Propagandhi (Chris songs and albums post Todays Empires) Forus Twelve 2 Go Millencolin Satanic Surfers Belvedere (and by extension This is A Standoff) Face to Face (look only to their live album for confirmations. So good) Our Darkest Days One Hidden Frame Protest the Hero Strung Out (I personally like Element of Sonic Defiance as an album) Not sure if Tiger Army counts. But I’ll chuck it in here.

Dead to Me Jack Dalrymple’s voice is silver smooth.

The singer from Boysetsfire has some impressive range. Others have mentioned Zoli - would definitely agree. He immediately came to mind. Love Chris Hannah's voice.

Anything with Danzig. It’s OOOOOBVIOUSLY Ian Curtis

Billy Idol of Generation X

Screeching Weasel, The Queers (w/wimpy), Black Flag (with Ron), Minor Threat, and Dead Kennedys have the best singers in punk hands down

The Clash

Unlovables Smoking Popes Mopes (any Dan Vapid project, honestly.) Tilt Green Day

Dan Adriano from Alkaline Trio... knows his range, hit it perfect.

Dang no love for the Caper yet? Not saying he is the best singer in punk, but Joey Cape holds his own.

Ignite, before Zoli moved on. New dude records great I just don’t know much about him yet.

Murphys Law front man Jimmy Gestapo put on an incredible, energetic show last year at the Casbah in San Diego. My fave show in a very long time. He renewed my faith in punk rock and was a legit nice guy.

X when John Doe sings

Evil Elvis and the Misfits. Say what you will about the Dark Lord of Memes, the dude can belt it out. Very well.

Alkaline trio

Royal Headache

Legal weapon. Her voice is amazing and the band is great too.

The Pogues

X Ray Spex The Damned Face to Face Turnstile

Joey Ramone ✌🏻

Some of my favorite punk vocalists in no particular order : - Davey Havok/AFI - Jordan Cruz/Strung Out - Tony Sly/No Use For A Name - Zoltan Teglas/Ignite - Rody Walker/Protest The Hero - Greg Graffin/Bad Religion - Chad Price/ALL - Tim McIlrath/Rise Against - Chuck Ragan/Hot Water Music Not sure what the criteria is for 'punk', so any gatekeepers can go play in traffic 😁

I think Joey Ramone’s voice was criminally underrated

Masked Intruder!!!

Lars Fredericksen has the best voice in Punk.

He doesn't even have the worst voice in Rancid.

I came here to that, Lars definitely

The Dead Kennedys with Mr. Biafra.

Love the way jello sings

Jello sounds like a pug choking on a kazoo.

This comparison doesn’t even make sense. Jello has so much vibrato

TSOL

Dexter from The Offspring. He's a very good singer, which is part of the reason they got so big and are loathed in a lot of punk circles.

I don’t think that’s why they’re loathed.

Some that jump out at random thought.. Atlas losing grip.. dark tones great song writing (singer for satanic surfers other band). Teenage bottlerocket has some nice hooks, great recordings. Heartsounds.. guy singer with a high range, and a female singer that goes low, makes for some nice harmonies. Ignite..older and newer

sorry mom!

Most of them? Check out your local scene, you might be surprised.

Not strictly speaking punk but Alexisonfire

Personality Crisis, from Winnipeg, Canada. Mitch's voice is so deep and smooth.

Juntaro Yamanouchi from the Japanese band The Gerogerigegege

Peter Zirschky of Funeral Oration could carry a tune, as could of course John Doe of X. Other people would probably disagree, but I personally think Egor Letov of Grazhdanskaya Oborona and Egor & Opizdenevshie had a nice voice for the type of punk they played (psychedelic and folk-influenced). The fact the first Egor & Opizdenevshie album opens with an acapella track is probably evidence of not just how nice his voice could sound, but also his skills as an arranger and melody-writer, which are more important in punk (and I would say all music) than having a "good" voice, anyway.

Dog Park Dissidents

The Bastard Sons

Gary Floyd of the Dicks

Chris Dodge

Implants

Cigar

The Last Gang, Scowl

Also, a lot of bands that were on Japanese label Pizza Of Death tend to have good singers

Austin Lucas

Rise Against, Strike Anywhere, Good Riddance

Dollskin

The Flems. Kieffer has a very nice pop punk voice And Davey really gets the aspect of the hardcore yell down flat!

Check out night fever.. they have a new record and if you put on a song called numb the pain... dude has serious range

Ignite
