    It’s funny I can’t stand black veil brides but I feel they’d be amazing if Andy left 😂 There songs are pretty good and their guitarists are amazing but I can’t get over Andy’s voice I personally think it’s terrible.

    That's awesome. I think the guitarists are talented but VERY generic, and I think Andy's voice is really distinctive in the hard rock/heavy metal genre, so I dig it. He is just too goddamn pretty though. "The gift of metal does not smile on the good-looking" - StrongBad

    I get that. Couldn't get into Alter Bridge though, aside from Open Your Eyes. But hot damn, when I heard that man's voice in Starlight, one of the collabs he did with Slash on his first album, I was like...who in the fudge is this guy and why haven't I heard of him until now? And then, years later, I experienced the same feeling when I heard him live with Disturbed doing the Sound of Silence. That is a pinnacle of music, right there. I remember scaring some former workmates when I was listening to that song through headphones, full 100% volume, not moving an inch from my computer, staring blankly into space. No one seemed to understand what was happening, which is just one of those moments that makes my life as a music lover (and hey, even a published musician now) so hard. No one gets these things anymore...

    Saw him live with Slash 2 times, 11/10, would do it again.

    Myles is one hell of a singer! I'm really glad he filled in for Axl at the Rock Hall of Fame performance. Him singing Sweet Child O' Mine was far better in my opinion than the original. Also his work on Slash's solo records is top notch! Definitely want to see Alter Bridge live and Slash doing another solo tour with Myles.

    HaHa This is so true :D :D . It sounds and feels so weird when a rock/metal singer is that good looking. His voice is the best thing about BVB for me. He made a lot of songs as a solo artist. Some of them are really good.

    BAND I THINK IS OVERRATED: I honestly don't know
