Female Led Bands

[The Hardcore Canuck]

For some reason, I really like female led heavy-rock/metal bands. I currently have albums for these bands:

Nightwish

Lacuna Coil

Within Temptation

Kittie

Otep

Flyleaf

Can anyone recomend any other female-led bands (BTW, I hate Evanescence)?

There you go...

[Herr Matzat]

be your own PET

[Steeb]

are overrated.

[Herr Matzat]

are overrated.

[Steeb]

They got a fair amount of hype over here. Hence why I think they're overrated, as they're not anything special. There's too many better bands that get less publicity, but I suppose that's how it works now. Sigh.

Little older, but Heart?

I love Lacuna Coil, that's probably the only female fronted band I really like. Oh, and Metric.

I still have a soft spot for Veruca Salt. Volcano Girls remains one of my all time favorite guilty pleasures.

[VerbalPuke]

My favorites include X (of LA), Even Worse, the Alice Bag Band (sexy Alice Bag), X-Ray Spex, Thee Headcoatees, Bush Tetras, Bleach (these chicks are like Primus on speed), and the Plasmatics if you like that kind of thing.

Walls of Jericho

[Draevyn]

Bikini Kill, and as much as I hate them, Hole

[punky]

Arch Enemey is also pretty good but on most of their songs, you can't tell it's a chick since Angela Gassow is fucking hardcore.

- Yellow Machinegun (they fit the genre you're looking for too)

- Seagul Screaming Kiss Her Kiss Her

- Inugami Circus-Dan

Sleater-Kinney

Hole (and Courtney Love's solo)

Le Tigre

Soviettes

Bikini Kill

Rilo Kiley

Some of the Broken Social Scene stuff is done with either female/male duets/more, or with entirely female vocals (Anthems For A Seventeen Year Old Girl, for example).

Kill Hannah

Feist

Metric

Cat Power

and The New Pornographers and Stars both contain female vocals, if they're any use.

Oh my God, I'm literally disgusted I forgot to mention my life long love for No Doubt. Literally.

[Styk]

Jack off Jill

Scarling

Kidneythieves

Snake River Conspiracy

Tapping the Vein

(are a few i didn't see mentioned...)

[DFF]

Dangerlust

The Cardigans

I too must add some love for Lacuna Coil. Really like "Comalies", it's quite a simply structured album - but it works. Also, muchos love for Heart. "If Looks Could Kill" is an ace track of theirs.

Snake River Conspiracy

Drain STH

Caridgans

Veruca Salt - nothing guilty pleasure about them, they rule.
