80s Glam/Metal Vocal Showdown #19: Snare vs Lane

[jingle.boy]

Now that I'm home for a couple of days, I'll try to keep this going.  Not surprisingly, there aren't too many that cared much for Borden/Diamond.  Well, here are a couple of stereotypical glam metal vocalists.  I really loved the first two Firehouse albums... sure there were a couple of duds mixed in with some really fantastic songs.  Just a couple of years ago, I discovered their other 90s ablums (3 and Category 5)... really good shit.  Warrant I really dug... but again, lost track of them after Dog Eat Dog - which is a fabulous album.

Damn this is tough.  Both vocalists are just really solid.  Not stellar, but certainly no obvious flaws.  Decent range, can deliver a good melody, and hold their tone.

Damn this is tough.

Gonna go with Snare.

CJ Snare still sounds great, but it's Lane, no contest.

[BlobVanDam]

CJ Snare for me too, both for voice, and the music.

[jjrock88]

Yeah this is a tough one.  The first Firehouse album is outstanding; but gotta go with Lane overall.  Very close.

[TAC]

Going with Lane. Not even a Warrant fan but I saw them live twice and they were excellent both times.

[Lolzeez]

CJ Snare for me too, both for voice, and the music.

Same here.

As singers it's an easy choice. Snare is a far better singer than Lane - I always thought his voice was pretty weak. Jani however was the better songwriter and I listen to Warrant more than Firehouse.
Voted CJ as it's a vocalist competition.

Gotta say I'm surprised at how this is turning out. Please tell me that Donnie Vie will show up somewhere so I can be the sole vote for him.

I never checked out any Firehouse.

Try the s/t debut.  It's excellent.  All She Wrote.  'nuff said.

[BlobVanDam]

I think Hold Your Fire is their best. Definitely recommend that one.

First two are all you need. Crap after that. Thought the 1st one was a bit hit and miss but All She Wrote and Don't Treat me Bad are awesome. Hold Your Fire rocked a bit more and is my favourite.
