Falsetto in rock has a strong relationship to the low mid content of electric guitars.
This means a vocalist needs to get in the upper register to have sonic space.
Some of the best rock vocalists of all time, for example axl rose and Chris Cornell, are actually low baritones singing almost exclusively in an idiosyncratic blended falsetto.

The first time I heard Axl Rose speak in an interview I couldn’t believe how deep his voice was! Listening to basically every GnR song had led me to expect a much higher pitched voice.
