i'm sure this has been contemplated numerous times, but this morning while i was stuck on the subway i stumbled across down's '..hedgerow' album on my ipod. i'm not really a huge fan of theirs, i just like when a song comes up on random here & there, i guess.
but this morning i decided to put the whole album on, and for some reason, i dunno, i tried listening to everything but the vocals and on the whole, it was way more enjoyable.
so....
what records would be made infinitely better/more enjoyable/mildly palatable/etc by removing all the vocal tracks?

Vocalists for nine out of every ten pop-punk bands, especially now that they think they need to become Smith and Bowie. The skateboard valley dude yip yips suck in new wave, dudes.

I really enjoy the prog rock of Dream Theater, but their singer drives me batty.

I mean, they'd still be a shit band but get rid of the screamer and it would at least be a less intense level of crappiness.

Anything post-Pop/Zooropa could probably benefit from less Bono.

Clap Your Hands. The band kick ass, but that singer...

I was in a Goodwill and they were selling that CD for $3. And I still didn't want to buy it.

I don't like the lead singer's voice in Muse. I also cannot stomach the Mars Volta dude.
