Corey Taylor is perhaps the most iconic metal vocalist of the new school. Having donned many masks when at the front lines with Slipknot and revealing his human form while performing with Stone Sour, Taylor's voice has rung with incredible force and precision throughout the 2000s. In this first round, however, he's got another modern mastermind to contend with.

Maynard James Keenan is a modern musical wizard. Fronting the three incredible projects Tool, A Perfect Circle and Puscifer, Keenan may be the most versatile singer in music today. Maynard's agenda as President of Heavy Metal would firstly be to redefine the title of his position, along with offering free wine from his vineyard until you spiral out.
