  • Oh and we need more all-female metal groups. That would be fucking awesome!

  • Women can so totally rock metal, Have you listened to Girlschool? If you haven't you'e missing out on A LOT.

  • Check out Deadend in Venice

  • We are sorely missing Epica, Xandria, After Forever, The Agonist (not my style, but it fits), Lacuna Coil, and Leaves' Eyes.

  • Tarja Turunen?(true NW) Simone Simons?(Epica) Sonya Scarlet?(TVD) Christina Scabbia?(Lacuna Coil) Liv Kristine?(Leaves' Eyes) Kaisha Jouki?(Battlelore) where are they?

  • you missed tarja turunen and shamaya from otep

  • angela is definitely number 1

  • finely som1 who lets Anette reprasent Nightwish.

    And i think alissa should be here too...

  • Hot chicks in metal, should be more for shure! I've always liked Lee Aaron, the "Metal Queen" There's too many homo's in metal! butt hey, thats there choice!(all puns intended) They're just not allowed to stare at my ass! the hot metal chicks can stare at whatever they want!!

  • @ColdForgedCopper What's wrong with homos?

  • I don't understand the, "women don't belong here." We can't like metal? We can't like rock? We can't play guitar or sing-clean or harsh vocals- rock out and headbang? As good or better than the men? We can't wear spikes or band shirts or corpse paint? Is there something wrong with that? I don't think so. Anyone who says there is needs to get over themselves; it's the year 2010, not 1950. :/

  • agreed.

    My family is so much against my music.

    They think, because of my taste, I am filthy girl with no self respect.. entertaining ?

    not so. I've been told that I act lesbian - cause of my music.

    It's just really lame, I didn't care then, and I don't care now, women are strong if they want to be, this is just some kind of social image most people have created, just like the woman in the kitchen make me a sandwich thing.

  • i feel lonely anyone want to chat with a goth girl

  • Comment removed

  • i think there are some good bands that

    girls sing in like the best one Arch enemy but alot of other girl bands do suck

  • Angtoria doesn't count as gothic.. christian goth metal? wtf

    and neither does Amy Lee, Evanescance is long done and over with, and she's moved on to a non-existent solo career that's far from the genre that made her a household name

  • @Slipknotyk06 Where did you get your info??/ That is sooooo wrong!...???

  • i want a gothic date with a gothic pussy after the date (=

  • lol i do sexygothicangel

  • haha i'd say yes if i was single :D

  • I'm pretty for equallity of the sexes and I don't understand why soem people say women don't belong in here or in thee, come on, they belong everywhere (except the guys bathrooms ;)) and metal is not an exception! They're great, and I listen to mostly women anyway, I like their sounds. Here are few you forgot:

  • ... Simone Simones(Epica), Amy Lee(not metal, but we still like her ;), Manda Ophuis(Nemesea), Sirenia's singers, Xandria's singers, Tarja Turunen(ex-Nightwish), Tristians's singer, The Sins of thy Beloved's singers, Amberian Dawn's singer, Lacrimosa's female singer, Manzana's singer, Beautiful Sin's singer....and probably many others! ;) Nice video by the way!
  • A few more good one's: Lacuna Coil/Cristina Scabbia, Sirenia/Various though Ailyn now!, Epica/Simone Simons, Unsun/Aya, Tristania/Mari Demurtas now!

  • Evanescence isnt really metal but usually they're included in that genre becuz they have a gothic feel to thier music and stage presence. wether they're counted as metal or not i think they are awesome.

  • yeah me too and Amy should be included in the list because she does a great job as a lead singer

  • dont forget Alissa White-Gluz from The Agonist

  • Check out,,,DRACENA-Demonic Women

  • Sarah Jezebel Deva, the singer from Angtoria will release her first solo album in february 2010, all the info is in her official myspace.

    Women in metal ? Of course it is right, metal can be performed by anyone as long as it is authentic and original but beware of the copycat bands, there are a lot of bands trying to sound like Nightwish these days.

  • If Im quite honest I prefer female fronted metal

  • Me 2 at least as a whole!

  • women in metal are the best !!!

  • true metal used to be a guys world but hey all genders should be able to do any kind og music they want 2

  • Angela Gossow is the only one that seems to AMAZE me.

  • Dude theres also Alissa White-Gluz From the Agonist

  • not a vocalist, but Ashley Ellyllon from abigail williams is hot

  • Are you fucking kidding me women fronted metal bands are awesome

  • To many women metal vocalists are in symphonic metal and are basically pop or opera-ish vocalists.

  • This video got me into alot of female fronted bands. Thanks!

  • Erben Der Schopfung, Flowing Tears, Flyleaf (?), Hole (?), Sirenia, Sinergy, We Are The Fallen (?) - and ones for instrumentalists: Eluveitie, Celtic Frost... can't be bothered to think of any more

  • That's funny that you include Flyleaf. They aren't metal. They aren't even good.

  • lacuna coil, evanescence (don't shout at me!), epica, after forever, xandria, krypteria, astarte, mandragora scream, forever slave, l'ame immortelle, tarja (nightwish), kittie, otep (cant remember if they were there or not), girlschool, leaves eyes, midnattsol. You should do the ones that play instruments, like in Sonic Syndicate, Coal Chamber, Cradle of Filth etc. Oh, Vocalists: Lacrimosa, Lullacry, Lunatica, Valkyre, Atargatis, Delain, Imperia, Nemesea, Mortal Love, Darkwell, Edenbridge, Elis

  • Kittie, Witch Hunt, Funeral for Yesterday and Arch Enemy, Revolution Begins, Rise of the Tyrant - sounds great! I believe more womans should be in metal. ;]

  • i prefer men.. :D

  • Yeah I do believe they should have more women in Metal Music. Have A listen 2 the band called A Hanging who are from New Orleans,La

  • Echoes of eternity singer has a GLAMOROUS boobs

    Lol i want to live in the middle of that beautys

  • the agonist and light this city ftw! ...too bad ltc disbanded though...

  • You forget Tarja too..

  • you forgot lacuna coil

  • girlschool, holy moses. and liz buckigham from electric wizard. shes not a front woman, but she still a woman in metal. this is mainly shitty metalcore. shit youd find in kerrang or something. fuck. this shits me off

  • To-Mera Prog Metal, The Project Hate Melo Death metal, Ram-Zet Avant-garde metal, Edenbridge Power Metal. Really people the world of metal is not all about Otep, Arch Enemy, hardrock and crap metalcore bands that ripoff Melodic Death metal. The Project Hate is far more heavy then anything that Walls of Jericho.

  • totally agree with you... The Project Hate MCMXCIX has one of the heavyest riffs I have ever heard... not talking about the marvelous female voice and ever so powerful grouvls

  • FLYLEAF is hardrock. The Birthday Massacre synthpop/rock. Walls of jericho is a crap ass metalcore band and metalcore is not metal. Bloodline caligraphy is nothing more then a hardroc punk band. Other then the female singer in Straight Line Stitch it's nothing more then another crap ass metalcore band. Yeah metal core is a ripoff of bands such as Dark Tranquillity and At The Gates.

  • Pff Parkway Drive is a good band

  • you have women that are in metal bands such as evanescence, and then going into the death metal catagory, theres arch enemy, a femal screamer, wow! everybody was freakin out about that... and then theres skillet, their bass player and keyboardist are women, but their vcalist is a dood, but yeah, music such as nightwish and xandria and within temptation, etc, is not "gothic".. its style is considered to be gothic, but the propper term is symphonic metal

  • oooh, if you like female screamers, listen to OTEP. -nods-

  • Evanescence is not metal.

  • bands like joan jett started it all... evanescence is somewhat metal though, not controdicting, but what do concider them?

  • I would call them just "rock." According to wikipedia, they're an "American rock band."

    "Amy Lee stated that Evanescence is neither metal or goth, but rather rock with various influences in metal, classical music and electronica."

  • wtf wheres cristina scabbia

  • Another thing I have noticed is that all women in Metal are hot.

  • wykked wytch aint my type xD

  • man so true that bitch from wykked witch is an atrocity

  • check out straight line stich,light this cityand wykked wytch i dont like wykked wytch but you guys might.

  • Thank You for showing me Straight Line Stich

  • Fuck that i can honestly when it comes down to it i prefer women in metal I just think they have better voives than dudes in other words I have no problem with it

  • Agreed all the way.

  • You want woman-fronted metal bands? Have you ever heard of Doro, Murkrat, Psychobolia, Silentium, Thorr's Hammer, Grey, Shroud Of Bereavement? These are real, talented women, in real metal bands (not In This Moment-crap). Bloody hell, even Lauren Harris is better than most of the bands featured in this vid.

  • Um. Whats "Gothic" about this or any of these bands? Nothing. There should be no debate, the band Souxsie and the Banshees, which were one of the first Gothic bands to exist was fronted by a female. Just to let you know, no metal is gothic~

    I'd recommend learning a bit more about your music~

  • though they broke up last year, the best metal band with a female singer is Light This City. they were underrated and not well known but Laura Nichol was the best

  • I think you should have left some room for Brody Dalle and Otep Shamaya

  • very good!

    arch enemy rulez!

    but i think you forgot another great bands like Epica; Lacuna Coil; Tristania

  • ah fuck ur friend. women make metal at least different. imo better in fact.bands like The agonist and kittie are amazing. and arch enemy was one of the first metal bands i heard and ive loved them since. there def should be more women in metal.

  • Hell yeah, fuck your friend... who gives a fuck if women are in metal. they make that shit sweeeeet!!

    LAcuna Coil, Heavens Dust, Watch me Burn, and In This Moment, maaaaan if i had wood, i'd sooo nail Maria Brink ;DDD

  • Yo, where's Otep? And how can you actually forget Lacuna coil!?!

    Anyway, women really do belong in metal, as they actually have better voice than us men (damn bullock!), but it is probably easier for then to get into gothic music, as its less intense (there is a differnece people!)

  • Part II: As a female, I think there needs to be far more women in EVERY PART of metal/gothic music! Not just more lead singers (although I want more of those, in BOTH the "operatic" and "thrash/growling" varieties!), but also more women who play base/lead guitars, are drummers or sythethizer keyboardists, BACKUP singers, etc! More female songwriters, producers, managers, EVERYTHING! AND MORE FEMALE FANS!

    (Come on, guys. Don't tell me it wouldn't make most of you turned on!)

  • i agree with you :D

  • I'm studying to become a sound engineer at the moment. Few more years to go though haha. I've got nothing against dudes doing whatever they do, but it'd be nice to balance things out a bit as well and get rid of the "no clits in the pit" mentality. I can't believe some guys still think of it that way. It's ridiculous.

  • I love going into mosh pits, because all the guys don't expect a 5'2" chick to do any damage and ignore me. I take them out at the knees :)

  • Do I think women "should be allowed to be in" metal/gothic music?

    The fact that this question even has to DISCUSSED is RIDICULOUS! Whether or not some misogynistic male fans/musicians appreciate them or not women CAN BE and ARE in metal/gothic music. And apparently people are willing to spend their money on bands with women in them!!!!

    (continued)

  • Watch the video response: From Argentina Ivana d'Arc

  • i am a big supporter of female metal heads. we need more.

  • Women + Metal = Jizz in my pants.

    women and metal are meant to be, sadly though, most women don't appreciate metal at all. it sucks.

  • You missing Lacuna Coil- one of the best woman in metal and the only one who recived metal hammer award for vocals.

  • I think the whole opera singer in a metal band is over used. Also when women try to get into the whole death metal most of them sound really bad.

  • I'm not sure if anyone mentioned them before but I mean Walls of Jericho is kickass and they have a woman for a lead singer.

  • I think it all depends on how their voices sound agiasnt the music being played.

    Some women sound good wih the growling n shit. Some don't.

    However, I find girls singing agianst metal background sounds beautiful like Echoes of Eternity and Within Temptation

  • Women can do anything mostly Metal and Gothic Soo Yes i do think they should be able to be in metal bands and gothic band!!

  • Dude I'll give you credit on the bands you posted, right on! And I believe that chicks in a metal/goth band add an element that can only bring greatness to any group! And for your part 2 follow up you gotta put this new group outta Europe called "UnSun"...check them out and you have to add "Lacuna Coil"....dig it!!

  • Since most of womens voices AND their bands sound so awfully same and generic and boring, I fail to see the awesomeness of women in metal and go listen to some female soft jazz or blues instead. Fits much better, fishnets and corsets and jet black hair were never beautiful anyway.

  • amy lee k tiene k ver con metal?!! por favor!!

  • yes i do think women should be in metal women i think are little more brutal then men the have better songs and they have more meaning to them and if any body has a problem with women in metal go talk to my girl Mistress Juliya

  • oh my God..this is unbelievable, u have nightwish and within temptation, but to complete the family you NEED amy lee from evanescence!! within nightesence forever <33

  • you missed a few really good ones:

    Otep Shamaya - Otep

    Candace Kucsulain - Walls of Jericho

    Alexis Brown - Straight Line Stitch

    Alissa White-Gluz - The Agonist

    Lori Bravo - Nuclear Death

    :D hope this helped

  • yes i believe that women can be in metal and in gothic music

    it's awesome! :)

    nice video :)

  • ooga booga!@!!!!

    HEY BWO!!

  • Clean vocals in the more extreme genres of metal is so wrong!

  • WTF??

    Where the fuck is OTEP?????????????

  • Have you ever heard of Ann Boleyn?

  • ann Boleyn should be on this list. I have a video of her in Hellion posted on my channel

  • I think women are fine as vocallists in core shit because the guys look like/sound like bitches anyways, so it doesn't matter. Keep them away from my black metal and I'm happy.

  • Hell yeah!

  • We need more Angela Gossows, definitely!!! You could add Castain/Vainglory to your list.

  • well done. great bands.

  • where's OTEP?? xDD

    great video!

    Angela the best of those ones!

  • and and wheres candice from walls of jericho?!?!?!

  • hey wheres STRAIGHT LINE STITCH?? she has sum maddd vocals!!!

  • hell yea wemon need to be in metal ... my band has a grl vocalist ... and she sounds alot like the grl from in this moment when she screams... but other then that u picked some good bands ... left out some good ones

  • i love in this moment i cant wait to c them n concert kittie within temptation arch enemy are amazing too ima look the other ones up tho

  • Where's Lee from Evanescence ?

  • hahaha yay in this moment!!! ^-^!

    what about Evanescence!?!

  • Evanescence =/= metal

  • Todas estan buenisimas ¡¡

  • Arch Enemy!!! Hell yea!!!!

    ♥ SaRaH

  • Whomen Can be in Metal-Bands if they want to!

  • Great list. I listen to them all.

  • the only 2 good bands u had there are "in this moment" and "arch enemy". also you forgot to put it "i hate sally" i know they arent rly that heavy but their singer is rly good. most of the bands u had here suck

  • agreeed about arch enemy and in this moment :D!!!!

  • what about nightwish!!!!

  • not bad, but uh, is there any screaming? i find it usually doesnt sound powerful enough without at least a little bit, or like beautiful tragedy by in this moment, not much screams but she has a powerful voice

  • eehhh there's somewhat screaming, not that much, but still good though, and haven't you heard prayers by in this moment? does that have enough screaming for ya?

  • oh hells yeah, i love that song, i love like every song by them

  • same here dude!! Yeah, she has a great voice, and she does pantera covers, which makes it alot better <3 <3

  • i dont think the new nightwish should be here but thats what i think

  • oh well..i do really love metal, especially Death Metal, but i hate growling or shouting women.. i'M sorry ..

  • Well chick's could be in metal but personally I'm not into their vocal style

  • looooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooool

  • Okay this is what i think. if girls wanna do lead vocals in a band go right ahead. but do it fuckin right msot of those bands you had up there fuckin suck. except arch enemy. there the shit. i also like (these werent in your video) slot,flyleaf,evanescene, and otep

  • women can be in metal, but hte bands you listed are crap

  • i agree to you

  • This guy replyed to another comment not to the video

  • Angtoria!!!!!!!!!!!! :D love them...

  • wicked wisdom.some of them sucked eggs next time try better bands.

  • A rose for the dead is not on Aegis.

  • couldve replaced nightwish and within temptation with otep and my ruin

  • wtf, OTEP is the greatest band on earth!! so fuck off!!!

    by the way, the best album of kittie is SPIT not the last one, the last one is too comercial.

  • BRACKISH...I LIKE THAT ONE...

  • check out the ,deadlock,aghora,to-mera,decad­ence,holymoses,landmine marathon and delain

  • no otep!!!!!!!!!

    why?

  • cause i was running out of time to make the video but they will be in my sec video of women of metal

  • WTF!!! pure posersssssssssssssssss

  • I Hate Sally, The Agonist, LIGHT THIS CITY, Luna Chicks, Otep, MY RUIN!!!, Sarah Jezebel Deva (Angtoria, Cradle of Filth), Flowing Tears, After forever, Elisa Martin (Dark Moor, Fairyland, Dreamaker), Fly Leaf, Lacuna Coil, Betty X

  • frontet. lol

  • nice vid. just add some more plzzz..

  • Evanescence, After Forever, emiiliie autumn, Lacuna Coiil, Leaves' Eyes, Angelspiit, Stream of passiion, Siirena, Jack Off Jiill and the agoniist....

    Just some of the bands wiith female siingers that kiinda relate to the goth/metal scene.

  • This is way kewl demo of women in metal. I have found myself becoming more pulled toward femal led Metal bands. You should also Add "light this City" "Wykked Wytch" "OT3P" oooooh there is so many that are way so awesome

  • OLD Nightwish is good this new nightwish they should've changed the name tbh cuz it will never be Real Nightwish

  • maria brink is very awesome....but morgan landers rules the bunch. and whats better is that kittie is all female!

  • In This Momement and Kittie are amazing but you're missing Christina Scabbia from Lacuna Coil, Candace from Walls of Jericho, Otep, and Kindney Thieves.

  • women singers are really great at going from singing to screaming. maria brink from in this moment is fucking awesome

  • Candace Kucsulain

    And Otep, definitely

  • i think women should be in metal and in gothic bands. because women are awesome =]

    those were great bands in the video =]

  • sure girls in metal are cool too. evanescence is the first band i listened to with a girl in it. they're great!

  • These were all great bands you mentioned, but the first metal band with woman leading it that I was introduced to was Otep. They're sick as hell. And speaking from someone in a alt/metal band with a woman vocalist, I would have to say that women definitely belong in metal.

  • missing epica too

  • angela gossow owns all these bitches.

  • Quick question, didn't arch enemy have a guy lead singer in the beginning?

  • yup

  • yes johan.

  • Thank you, both you. I thought so. I was talking to some people & they were like no it's always been a girl, I was like no I don't think so.

  • Shit, I definitely think that women should be in metal. Also, check out Straight Line Stitch. (No, that's not my band, no I'm not trying to promote them, they're just another kickass metal band fronted by a chick.

  • Women in metal are great, in any kind of metal, but there are some girls who really suck.

    I like bands like Draconian, Tristania, Estatic fear, Epica, Penumbra,old theatre of tragedy, the sins of thy beloved, Galadriel, etc..., who combine guttural growls voice with a female vocalist.

    Some girls with guttural voice are fantastic like Arch Enemy or Kittie.

    Many people likes these women, not because they are hot, just because they sound really good and they gave metal something different.

  • Its sad cause I dont consider half those bands metal(nightwish,angtoria, lacuna coil etc.). They are decent bands but not metal. Now Walls of jericho, Bloodline caligraphy, Arch enemy, light this city etc. THATS METAL!!! Female bands are just like guy bands, some are good, some suck. Its stupid to say, "yeah that bands great cause shes hot!" Wich is probably why bands like aforementioned lacuna coil etc. are so popular in the metal scene. Not cause they are good, just cause they are hot.

  • without women in metal both the other way and fronting brutal bands like arch enemy and some you mentioned metal wouldn't be metal

  • There's Fuck the Facts, Bloodline Calligraphy, Without Mercy, Tard, Splatter, just to name a few more...

  • you forgot light this city and walls of jericho

  • Uh, wtf.

  • OMFG... Girls are just as important to metal as cowboy hats are to country... where would the world be without In this moment, Arch Enemy, and Otep and other girl singer metal bands... Guys need to get over themselves..

  • Look Im 100% Metal.

    I Think If You A Metalhead [guy]

    You Need A Metal Girlfriend.

    Even Tho Some Girl Bands Suck.

    I STILL NEED THEM.

  • Yea they should be in metal... all the lead singers are HOT

  • how about women that aren't in metal? Le tigre, melt banana, SONIC YOUTH!!!! huh huh?

  • here are some i know of that arent in the video...

    fuck the facts, the agonist, otep, hanzel und gretyl, WALLS OF JERICHO...

  • i know where was otep oh maria brink and all the members of kittie are hot as hell

  • oh yes. women absoulutly belong in metal. they add VARIETY(sp). even if its an all guy band. its always cool do bring chicks in to do vocal harmonies and stuff

  • epa!

  • Women can do just as much as guys, and in metal we do, do a lot of stuff too, women should be able to be in metal, we can scream too personally I love Maria Brink from In This Moment she just gives it all and I love it good job on the video
