10 Most Iconic British Frontmen Of 1990s Rock Music
1. Liam Gallagher - Oasis
When you look back on the entire '90s, there are millions of artists who have been known as the voice of their generation. If you look back on the titans though, people like Kurt Cobain weren't really looking to chase the spotlight, electing to hang in the background and shy away from the press whenever he could. As the grunge scene faded though, we were treated to a lad from Manchester who was charismatic and just hungry enough to take over the entire world.
Off the strength of Oasis' first two albums alone, Liam Gallagher would have already been in the conversation as one of the greatest frontmen in rock history. Peering out just about his signature shades, the Oasis frontman brought the real rock and roll swagger to Noel Gallagher's songs, making for some of the most enduring anthems of the decade like Rock and Roll Star and Live Forever.
Although Oasis have been long gone at this point, you can listen to Noel perform his own material and tell that something is missing. Hell, even in their prime, Liam didn't need to do anything on stage, maintaining his perched position beside the microphone and singing what he felt from his gut. You know you've reached another level of rock god when you don't even need to move to get your point across.
