Well, the problem first starts with deciding what is considered metal. Is nu metal being considered here? Is any alternative metal included? Are we counting metalcore? Do bands like AC/DC, Porcupine Tree, or Rush count? I also don't understand your question. I'm pretty sure if someone's a bad signer they're not just going to gravitate towards metal, most people that make metal music are fans of metal. Another problem is the fact that vocals are much less important than the instruments in metal, so when we listen we are generally more focused on the guitar/drums/bass/etc. than the vocals (many harsh vocals, such as the ones that Varg Vikernes does for Burzum, are mainly for atmospheric purposes). However, there are still very good metal singers, but as stated before, it's hard to give examples when I don't even know what we are including as metal.
