y’know, Jonathan Richmond, James Murphy, Andrew Savage etc.
This can either be a thread for your opinions of bunged up sounding singers, or a thread about things you quite like, or a bit of both, i dunno
Richman, you dickhead
Quite partial to the nasally toned myself. Not those whingy American teen sounding types, more like this
Britt Daniel
I think Bobby Wratten had a cold when this was recorded…
obviously Billo Corgs belongs to this category too. Particularly post Mellon Collie. Worked it for a while but pretty shit nowadays.
Hamilton Leithauser’s got it a bit
the cribs. one twin has it worse than the other.
Gary has it worse
Always think Chris Martin sounds like he has a cold…
J Mascis

Willy Vlautin
Tom Waits
Surely the most obvious of the genre
Probably Cocaine inflicted…
