They don't really have a lead singer. That's like asking which of the spice girls is the lead singer.

That said, if I was forced to choose one, it definitely wouldn't be Gene, and he's the most popular one.

He played a bunch of instruments but was also the lead vocals like 99% of the time.

Van Halen. David Lee Roth is a big deal for sure, but Eddie's the one that's given the band staying power in the popular imagination. Helps that the band's named after him and his brother.

He was the lead singer on almost all of their songs.

Kiss would work though, as Paul Stanley sang most of the time, but Gene Simmons was the face of the band.

You could argue for Led Zeppelin, Page is often given more credit than Plant and Bonham is one of the most famous/influential drummers ever.

Cream-- Ginger Baker & Eric Clapton both get more acclaim than Jack Bruce.

The Who-- Townsend is always mentioned before Daltrey.

Slayer-- King, Hanneman, & Lobardo are all probably ahead of Araya.

No.

Barker seems more well known among musicians, but Tom Delong seems the most well known among the general populace. Just my observation.


Barker's way more of a household name than DeLonge is.
