Vocalists that annoy you...

Vargs vocals are actually pretty damn good. It's easy to see why people criticise him though, although I did think this was about vocals.
Oh, and you want a correlation between reputation and physical appearance?
HITLER YOUTH VARG, GO!
Soidanae:
Dave Matthew(s) (is there an s there? Or is that just because of Dave Matthew's Band) He sounds so utterly whiny all the time. And the falsetto is deadly.
Also: Clean male vocals and the female singer on Sirenia's "An Elixir for Existence". Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh.
Garcin:
I'd like to second dislike for Dave Matthews' voice. I think it might be set at the resonance frequency of my molars or something.
I like Eric Ounsworth's voice (the vocalist for Clap Your Hands Say Yeah). Sounds like a really sincere drawl; equal parts intense and stoned. Excellent.
I probably dislike Bjork the most, voice-wise. There were parts of Vespertine where I started to hit myself in the arm for a distraction. I wanted to get through the entire CD so that I could bash Bjork in an informed manner, should the need arise, but I don't think I ever made it. I know that to some people her voice is nectar and ambrosia, but to me it makes nails on chalkboard sound like Sufjan Stevens.
(Obviously since I'm ok with both Sufjan, and with singer/pixies like Feist, I'm anticipating a tad of disagreement with other forumers, but hey, that's cool -- everyone's right!)
EDIT: Grammar.
Rizzo:
I'm go isolate myself here but I HATE Bob Dylan. He can't bloody sing...
Give up and die already Bob.
Storm Rider:
Dylan can't sing, but he's such a great songwriter it doesn't matter.
I second the guy from Hot Hot Heat, Thom Yorke, Axl Rose, and Brandon Flowers (if he's the guy from the Killers, which I think he is). James LaBrie is marginal.
And I like Geddy Lee, though I will admit it took a long time for me to adjust to his style. Plus, he's a great bassist.
