Escape The Fate fans: Ronnie or Craig?

[Richard]

WrestleZone fans of Escape The Fate, who do you think was the better frontman for Escape The Fate?

A bit of background info about Escape The Fate. They are from Las Vegas, have two full length albums, both with different singers, the first with Ronnie Radke and the second with Craig Mabbit. Former lead singer, Ronnie Radke was arrested and taken to jail because he was involved in a fight where someone died, although he didn't do it, he was considered an accessory, although I hear he can have probation next month.

So, who do you think was the best Escape The Fate lead singer.

In one corner, we have the old singer, Ronnie Radke. If you need to see a music video from them when he was the singer, here is their song, Not Good Enough For Truth In Cliche.

And in the other corner, the new singer, formerly of Blessthefall, Craig Mabbit. Here is a music video from them from the new album with Craig. The song is called The Flood.

So, Escape The Fate fans, which singer do you prefer and why?

After a few people give their opinions, I will give mine.

You can't honestly compare the two. They're like different bands now. I like both, but from their voice to the very way they compose their music; they're different. Ronnie's Escape the Fate had a more unique sound in my opinion, and were a very good band. But although Craig's Escape the Fate may be more mainstream-friendly, with their sound replicating a lot of whats already out there, they aren't a bad band. I like both of them.

If I had to pick though, I'd go with Ronnie simply for something different. But The Flood is probably one of my favorite songs by EtF.

Well, I much prefer the old Escape The Fate with Ronnie Radke, that's not to take anything away from the new Escape The Fate, fronted by Craig, they are a good band now, but I prefer listening to the older stuff.

Thing is, as you pointed out, they are different bands now, the new Escape The Fate is more mainstream, radio friendly while the older is not so much and I see live videos of Craig singing Ronnie's songs and it just doesn't feel right to me.

I don't know if you have heard the jail interviews of Ronnie Radke over the phone and he said something about Craig something like "I'd fucking tear him up" which I agree with, Ronnie is better and I can't wait to hear what From Behind These Walls does with an album, if you haven't heard the demos, check out Ronnies or From Behind These Wall's MySpace websites to hear some stuff.
