Episode #227: The Song Remains the Same (The Vocalist May Vary)

Your intrepid FYF co-hosts Saint and Jim both sing lead in rock bands. As such, they're uniquely poised to make the case that — despite fan perception — the vocalist is NOT the most important person in the band. Regardless, the voice of any given group is still one of its most identifiable aspects. So while some bands play literal musical chairs with the folks manning the instruments, the singer's spot is typically less flexible. Even so, countless bands have swapped in a new singer mid-stream due to deaths, departures, or inter-band tensions. On this edition of FYF, the boys do a deep dive into bands that have replaced their frontmen, and the varying degrees of success (or failure) they've had in the wake of the personnel swap.
