Mozart. Dude would be social media famous in .2 seconds. He’d be annoying us all. He’d be covering all new songs same day after hearing it once. And I’m here for that chaos.

So basically Weird Al but faster?
Freddy Mercury
The starlord provides the only correct answer
Chris Cornell
It’s a tie between Chris and Chester… both too soon.
I’d say at least bring back someone who wants to be here
Freddy Mercury.
Or David Bowie
Jeff Buckley, no question. He released arguably the best album of the 90s (Grace) then went and fucking drowned. Only 30 years old. He coulda been one of the best to ever do it, but we’re left wondering.
The first ancient cavedweller to stretch skin over a frame and start hitting it to make noises. Give Grog a full drumset and see what he comes up with
Orpheus. I bet he’d do great fronting a metal band.
Wayne Static.
Gotta go with chester, assuming you can bring them back with their health (mental and physical) “fixed” to a good massive balance.
Not because he’s any better than any of the other greats that have died. Not even the ones that killed themselves.
Just because there’s something about his death that makes his life feel more unfinished.
Out of any of the people listed here, I think he had the most undone. Not even in the musical sense alone, across the board.
We could really use a Pete Seeger or a Woody Guthrie in times like these.
Doom.
I’d be hesitant to bring back anyone who’s reason for death was suicide or substance abuse, it just seems cruel.
Remember all caps when you spell the name.
Tbh yeah, or at least the MF before DOOM is necessary. I was sitting here thinking about Doom the hardcore band until I read your comment lol.
Chuck Schuldiner, frontman of death metal pioneers Death, dude died of cancer in 2001 at the age of 34. I never had the chance to see them play live but their records are incredible.
Cliff Burton, Bass player of Metallica, died when the band’s tour bus crashed and he was crushed underneath it. The band lost part of its soul and it took them a very long time to get over Cliffs death. Seeing videos of him playing live makes one understand what was lost, as he was an incredible musician.
On a more general note every artist that died very young, many made a big impact to their genre or even to a wider audience without it ever knowing.
SOPHIE. Hyperpop hasn’t been the same since her passing.
Chuck Schuldiner. Greatest death metal vocalist to ever live.
Piotr Grudziński of Riverside. It’s clear to me their discography went completely different way than it could have after he died being only 41.
