Yes and No !! It depends what the AR guy can get from the band and how fast. The goal is a song that sells and although the band members may be able to sing adequately, they may not be able to learn a complicated (good sounding) background vocal arrangement fast enough (or well enough) to allow them to sing. Of course, unlimited studio time and "layering" allows a nice mosaic to be spliced/patched together anyway (as Steve Sholes did with Elvis) and this is usually good enough. The really high-quality songs always have great background singers: KISS couldn't use them, but Celine Deone needs them: crass versus class. If you were the lead vocal and your band could play but only "sorta" sing, the session manager ( AR guy ) would know immediately and make other (professional) arrangements. You'd want this, the AR guy would demand it, and your disappointed band members would learn a hard, cruel lession in audio recording: if you can't sing, you won't be allowed to ( unless you're Paris Hilton and her singing comes with a nice "personal" video that overwhelms the audio anyway). The studio is a completely different world from a stage act. In fact, many great stage bands just can't cut it in the very structured atmosphere of the studio -- that's why there are session musicians and, of course, background singers. Nick P. So, "sure they do" (especially on stage) except when you can "do it yourself".

Some rock bands featuring male lead singers with shoulder-length pale blond hair include "The Darkness," led by Justin Hawkins, and "Wolfmother," with Andrew Stockdale. Additionally, "The Wildhearts," fronted by Ginger Wildheart, has also showcased similar hair. These bands often blend elements of glam rock and hard rock, contributing to their distinctive visual and musical styles.

A lot
Certainly. There are no 'requirements' as to what type of singer front a Heavy Metal band, and several Metal bands employ various types of vocals, such as Opera singers, first used sparingly by Celtic Frost, then later used by bands such as Theatre of Tragedy, Nightwish, After Forever, etc. Some singers don't have any formal background to speak of, whatsoever. So long as you can find a band that works for you, you can have any background imaginable.

Many people tend to think indie rock is a style of music when in fact it just means that the band is with an independent (indie) music publisher and not with the bigger labels. Although you tend to find that indie labels will sign more bands/singers from alternative forms of music whereas bigger labels like to sign bands/singers from mainstream. Of course nowadays indie is mainstream. Go figure! Bands like Blur and Oasis have this style of music !!!!
