15 Most Charismatic Frontmen Of All Time

11. Dave Grohl

Dave Grohl is usually omitted from lists such as these due to the obvious comparisons with Kurt, but he is one of the most talented musicians with a way of connecting with audiences as if he were a family member. Not one to sit simply sit on his laurels and watch the royalties roll in, Dave is one of the hardest touring musicians today with an earthy and unpretentious manner that makes him so appealing. Sure, his voice may not be technically stunning nor filled with melismatic warbles, but his voice has power. Power that stops you in your tracks and gets you listening, even if the 'Foos aren't normally your cup of tea. Many bands lose sight of their direction after 18 years together but it seems their newer material is actually stewing with more depth and elbow grease than ever before, verifying that Dave ain't livin' in anyone's shadow. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYJHiTYvMVo
