Q Magazine's The 100 Greatest Frontmen issue hits the shelves today, with 36 pages of exclusive new interviews, pictures, and essays from the 100 greatest singers, showmen, and performers that have defined the world of music. Housed in a special slipcase cover, swaggering Mancunian Liam Gallagher tops the countdown, voted for by readers of Q Magazine and users of QtheMusic.com. In the issue Kasabian’s Tom Meighan talks about his experiences with the ultimate rock and roll star, “He doesn’t come offstage and have a fucking back rub while he’s cuddling his pet poodle. The attitude stays.”
Elsewhere in the list Bono offers up his advice on being a frontman, Damon Albarn reminisces on the finest moments from his multiband resume, and Matt Bellamy shares his experiences at the helm of the Muse ship. Expect to see pioneers such as Morrissey, Ian Dury, and Kurt Cobain too.

Q also takes a peek inside the bedroom of Q's “best new frontwoman,” Florence Welch, an exclusive insight into the mind of the Florence and The Machine star, which is filled, as expected, with “ghosts and “sex monks” amongst a few other things.
