  • Sexxaay ;) xD... Watching/listening to how good these women are is really.. Getting me pumped at the thought of how amazing it would be to play even half as good as them :D

  • What's with all these sexist and discrminatory comments I'm reading on this page? I know some girls who can really shred on a guitar. I'm a girl and I put a lot of emotion when I'm singing. Sheesh!

  • @frito532 It's tough for us ladies not only in metal but in the real world as well, but we learn to to tough it out every single day :)

  • Comment removed

  • LITA :)

  • Don't forget about: Kelly Johnson, one of the best guitarists ever, Joan Jett, an awesome rhythm guitarist, obviously in another field Joni Mitchell, and the best rhythm guitarist ever, specially with acoustic guitar: NANCY WILSON.

  • @ArturBB20 Yes, to me Nancy Wilson of Heart is the best female guitarplayer. I only have to listen to the intro of "Crazy on you", she totally swept me of my feet from the first time I listened to her. There are plenty women that can do a pretty good shredding on guitar, that is not so special anymore, but play like Nancy is something completely different.

  • Lita Ford is my favourite \m/

  • whats the name of the second band they showed?

  • I think the gal playing the MusicMan guitar at 4:02 is Jan Kuehnemund (Vixen), not Lori Linstruth.

  • I think the gal playing the MusicMan guitar at 4:02 is Jan Kuehnemund (Vixen), not Lori Linstruth.

  • Hi can you post the list with bands in the description? Thanks

  • Lori Linstruth is amazing because she was with Stream of Passion and is now working with Arjen Lucassen from Guilt Machine. She's the only one with her own very unique style.

  • '80's hair and metal chicks FTW!

  • This is a video of me<3 i made a couple mistakes but listen to it porfavor(please)=]. Press LIKE on the youtube video not facebook lol if you enjoyed it thank you!!!! =D<3 i also have a band :))) spread this all over if you can thank you!!!!!

  • who's the one at 4:09??? i liked her the most,

  • @frito532 Ack!! I'd never say that they weren't worthy!!! Never!! I love 'em.

    What happened to Rude Girl is an interesting story to some people but the upshot, in answer to your question, is that the closest Rude Girl got to making an album is the Malibu Barbi EP called "Rude Girls" (sometimes available on ebay.) Again... long story. LOL Being a woman in metal is kinda hard, but it's getting betta. thanx for checking in and supporting us all! \m/

  • @frito532 lol true that. facts are facts. who would ever know or care what went on behind the scenes.

  • @frito532 Welll..... sort of. That's kind of a complicated story, but I will say that Varney also "discovered" Lori (Linstruth) by featuring her in his column in Guitar Player magazine. Which is why I ended up playing with her in Warbride after my band Rude Girl turned down Shrapnel to sign with 415/CBS. Before Phantom b.

  • There's nothing sexier and cooler than seeing a chic playing an instrument like this.

  • Captions please, I don't know who many of these women are, but they sound worthy of checking out.

  • I'm into nice scenery as much as the next guy, but when Vixen and Phantom Blue came along that focused more on the big hair and hot looks that tended to become more of a focus. Give me Girlschool where the chicks were just natural looking, but rocked just as hard.

  • It´s not direct offending of women here by you, BUT the typical manner, offenders are greatful to use to argument for their weird destructive opinions.

    One thing su**s: Lori and Batten you said SURELY LEARNED from men!? Waht are you - God? Others in the video - too? Who gave you omniscience? Megalomaniac? Men invent and women just assimilate? No offence of women? You first imagine, how body- thus mind-crippeling allday life is for most girls, even in tUSA. Officials HARDLY PROMOTE weird women!

  • hey aryinc, what was first, the hen or the egg? I meant: HOW people deal with comparing this little list of women with men. The egg/hen: so few women shreddin vs. the hen/egg: people sayin "why are there just 1 woman and 100 men?I know why!" I tell you: people don`t see, that it´s the fu* comments of comparison, that so many young girls go through (I KNOW what I´m talking -YOU do not seem to! how the fu*?!)- insults everywhere, even when you`re very good/haveOwnSty, + THEY ARE HARDLY PROMOTED.

  • PLEASE TELL US what the band and the solo player from 1:28 on is! Thank YOU!

    (many other information wpuld be great, too! After you had made so much work for posting the videos, (wo)man!!)

  • @LameStaley

    LAME PENI* SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM OFFICIAL LIFE AS THEY POISON THE TRUE WAY OF THE WOLRD AND AS THE RAPE SOULS BY TYPICAL PATRIARCHATIC LIES - POOR LITTLE MAN, DOUBTING HIS OWN POOR LITTLE EGO: ANYONE can actually SEE on youtube what reality IS. Poor little boy in dreams of rape.

  • @LameStaley eres un pinche naco puto de mierda que no te ha cogido nunca una mujer pues debes dar asco, por eso no quieres a las mujeres y hablas así de ellas.... ojalá te puedas coger tu mismo si es que tienes algo de pito, que no lo creo, porque nadie más querrá

  • quienes son las del 1:28.. cmo se llman??

  • fuck!

  • aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamoressss­ssss

  • girls playing guitar sounds totally diffrent from the guys.it is nice but you hear the little diffrent way of thinking.some some good some boring in this list,when i think about good a good female guitarist i only can think of jenifer batten.the rest in this list for example surely can play but then the tone sux or other way around,but that's personal preferences.

  • @aryinc @rockero2111 So rare are women to be seen with guitars, so how YOU wanna tell what is "typically" different. Some male logic??? Niop? No logic? You need a right statistical / empirical BASE to compare, boy! Even in these examples you can find proofs that you´re right AND that you´re WRONG, boy! You should learn what it means to say "in my humble opinion". You are talking about so many people in general, you even did not hear! MAN! Remove those f** boys from everywhere poisoning all!

  • @nazwayoutubization

    well are we talking about this video or in general here? am i discriminating,hell no type in marty friedman or a paul gilbert and you''lle just  find yourself a more intresting video then this,and do you think jeniffer batten or lori lindstruth learned they're stuff from the girls? maybe but surly not all.there's a lot of talent flying around on the internet ad not on the net,i mean to say it'less comon to see shredding girls,there are just more male guitarist for a fact

  • @nazwayoutubization

    maybe it might be equal the men and women around the world that play guitar,but it's typical for the men to shred why? because it's like 10 top shredding women vs 100 of of men shredding it into the top,i'm talking comercially.do you thing heart it's baracuda for instanse was as intense as child in time,any queen song,led zep songs,black sabbath etc etc etc top 100 tells the diffrence.there are women that work as electrician but there are more men doing that visa versa.

  • @nazwayoutubization

    i'm not attacking women why? i'm just giving my upinion i don't see my neighbourette shred for instanse hell no gilr in my hood shreds it like these,and i can name 10 men in my town that shred the guitar,it's not impossible for girls GIRL i loved jennifer batten in micheal jacksons a few men can outplay here,but it's damn cool to see a girl stand here place.don't interpetate my coment wrong,if so i don't want to offend women why should i?.

  • EITA EITA EITA. Check her out.

  • So much hair...

  • hey dude can u just post a list of the bands featured and the guitarist's names

  • what is the name of the first song called

  • All of these girls rock!

  • Vixen sucks

  • are you on drugs?

  • no , i'm not on drugs , i can't help if you like shitty music , fag

  • whats wrong with vixen? im into metal/rock

  • @painsey Whose vixen?

  • @sparks199 just you tube the song edge of a broken heart

  • blah

  • so do you

  • It's cool to see great female musicians! We feature some good ones on our channel too.

  • me gusta cmo tocan ellas asi bn rudas

    sta bn ya quisiera ioo

  • no doubt they're good, but just a bit shred-heavy. i love shred, but it needs substance to keep it from being boring as fuck.

  • its not very rythmically varied. It somehow becomes a little too nice and orderly and prearranged - correct but not real experessive or cohesive. Sounds a bit like someone copying someone elses solo very well but without the original personality.

  • Comment removed

  • does any one know the name of the first band, goddam they rock

  • The first band is called Phantom Blue.

  • why all these bands look like motley crüe?

  • cuz motley crue is a bunch of girls lol

  • @chadeisa that was the style back then

  • although i was more into Jaded Lady i did go to quite a few PB shows and they always rocked.

  • RIP Michelle Meldrum =(

  • I like VIXEN the best of all!

  • Altho I must say all-female bands are cheesy and I hate the fact that they have to be slutty to get attention, but when they had to compete in the 80's with dudes that looked like chicks well they had no choice I guess!

  • Yeah, we women are sooooo stupid. Except hey I'm a woman and I can probably play better than any of you... Don't be jealous cuz we look better WHILE doing it better. Yeah Jennifer sucks right? Is that why she played with Michael Jackson for so long? Cuz she sucked? Hmmm... and she's stupid right? Except she's laughing at you all the way to the bank... ;-]

  • Humbucker01

    Thats quite the PANTYHOSE, FOOT .HIGHHEELS video Fetish you got goin on there Faggot .I bet you could'nt play guitar if it jumped out and bit you on the ass FETISH BOY

    LOL

  • those girls are great! lita is an awesome guitarist, but i dont like her style, she's too much of a slut

  • JENNIFER BATTEN is a amazing guitarist played with michael jackson for over a decade,

  • you ignorant pice of shit

    michle jacksons guitar player can outplay almost any guy on the planet dude

  • hunbucker wtf, listen to JENNIFER BATTEN what a gem

    there is no difference

    only genitila

  • Ahhh yes, some of the great female guitar players of the 80's! I know of one that never made it to greatness but should have...a gal named Eileen Krauss from Chicago...she played with Sweet Revenge...just awesom! i think she still plays around town too sometimes.

    Anyways...im going to watch part 2...hope to see Nancy Wilson of Heart in there somewhere...she is THE master of acoustic.

  • i wish all female guitarists would stop dressing up like sluts . men might like it , but it kind of doesnt do anything for the music

  • Vixen - the only time in musical history that hair and guitar volume were equal...

  • Vixen bass player Pia Maiocco is Steve Vai's wife.

  • What ever happen to them

  • I hate Ibanez guitars

  • thats cause u have a tiny pecker

  • fucking sexy..they are rock sexy stars........great

  • sorry wrong comment i meant to give this a +1

  • They Rock!

  • Lori Linstruth(7:15-8:34) is the best. She has her own unique style and sounds different.

  • @Glad1kun I started to play the guitar because of her :) I wanted to kick asses just like her! <3 she is an idol..

  • @Glad1kun i agree completely very unique

    kinda sounds like steve vai with even more whammy bar -_-

  • nice

  • excellent compilation! :)

  • what make of guitar is that at 408

  • its a Peavey Wolfgang

  • thanks

  • 4 tuners on the top and 2 on the bottom. More like an ernie ball music man. The Wolfgang has 3 a side.

  • AHH.. i live the singer's hair in the first band.. hehe

  • awesome!

  • i cant believe women can paly like this...impress,excellent....i love them

  • MACHISTA DE MIERDA

  • Girls rock : )

  • the lady from vixen is too excellent also, very good notes and feel

  • they are hot !!!!!

  • its only because we're just soo used seeing a guy guitarist using his hands and the hands look more manly and natural with it I guess

  • Phantom Blue's dueling guitars remind me a lot of the guitar riff to "Hotel California." Also check out my "Guitar Babes" play list. Very, very good. I love seeing women play because it seems so few of them do these days. And most who do only play simple chords. These women shown here are the experts!!

  • Nicole Couch and Michelle Meldrum of Phantom Blue are the only female guitarists ever to have recorded an album with guitar guru Mike Varney and Shrapnel records. Watch their video Going Mad on youtube and listen to the guitar work. It blows my mind

  • confirmed what I've always suspected, women just cant play guitars, sounds about as melodious as a skeleton wanking on a tin roof.

  • I must admit I had some doubts too, but not after listening to Vixen, this band plays pretty well and their songs are very melodic.

  • shows what you know lol

  • why you gotta be like that?

    Seriously? Are you any better? I doubt it

    get a grip already

  • mantapppppppppppppppp

    keren abis nih Phantom Blue

  • keren nih band, mantap abissss

  • These chicks fucking shred

  • Thats what I am talking about!!

    To bad Madonna came around and introduced pop music...Instead of sharing their true potentional, actually playing a instrument females flocked to soulless bubble gum pop music like brain washed zombies..Damn I love when girl guitarists prove to be talented, cuz they are just as talented as men, so there!!

  • VIXEN rules. Especially on their other video,

    "Not A Minute Too Soon".

    In my book,they were the greatest!!

  • that was shred-tastic! :D

  • ala madrreee!!

    eso es demasiado bueno!!

  • Even if female guitarists WERE worse...

    I'm still happy they're playing :) because if they wouldn't they wouldn't get any better...

    And what I've seen here is just the proof that they've become PRETTY GOOD!

  • Lori is the best there, i listen to her stuff on myspace and it's quite good

  • Lori is the best in this video. Btw check Nashville Pussy :)

  • Intense female guitar rockstar???? Got 2 words for ya NANCY WIlSON

  • i agree that there are both good and bad female guitarists just like there are good and bad male guitarists. of those ive seen the most have been  just as good as the average male guitarists, but lori really belongs to the real experts, her style is like no one elses

  • 1:40 what band is that? sounds nice!

  • Rocking women are steaming!

    Women play better than most men!

    Second song Time to Run was written by Glen Hughes and John Norum. John would be Meldrums Husband.

  • I'm sry but no, women cannot play better than most men. I;m not going 2 continue with that because we all know where it's going...

    other than that there needs 2 be more women in the music business, i don't know what's stopping them, i mean, who disapproves of them doing so?

  • I'm sorry, but I cannot stand your statement as it generalizes women as guitarists which are not as good as men.

    Don't lump all guitarists together. Just like male guitarists, some are lousy but some are just plain good.

    I can easily say I play better than most men. Most of them on youtube doing covers just plain suck, anyway.

  • ok i guess i will continue with this since u want 2 pick at it...

    whoever this is, is showing professional guitarists who are women. Male professionals blow them out of the water(except herman li), they don't even have their own style or techniques.

    well i ran out of room so I'm going to make 2 comments..

  • Part 2:

    of course there are males who play horribly, and women who play wonderfully, but overall men are better at guitar because they can stick with it longer. with all of my friends who want 2 play guitar, 80%(12/15) of the boys are still playing while every single girl(9 of them) that has started has left their guitar in the back of the closet

    and I don't think we should segregate guitarists in any way like this because there are good and bad ones in every variable.

    no room uh-oh

  • You contradict yourself by saying that we shouldn't segregate guitarists like this. You were the one that picked at gender first.

    Well, I'm sorry, but I have to say that your sample is not representative enough. Even so, I'm saying that you shouldn't be so quick as to make a general statement. Just my op.

    I must also add that society's attitude encourages boys to play well and when women play they comment on how hot she is. And they will say she sucks even when she plays better. Jeez!

  • I picked at gender first?? read the other comments first, but not that anyone can tell because of da,m youtube but my first comment was a reply to someone who i shall leave out of this at the moment

    and in another one of these videos i made a comment about society encouraging boys 2 play more than girls, i really don't see what's stopping them, who doesn't want a girl 2 play guitar?? not that it's hot, well it kind of is but hell the more guitarists the better.

  • Oh, I didn't exactly bother to read all the way back, of course. My bad. My frustration was from reading yr latest comment alone. Yeah, admittedly some girl guitarists are embarrassing (playing Avril. etc.), but I'm more on the part where you sounded like you made a sweeping comment about men being better at the guitar. It's like saying women are bad drivers, that sort of thinggg.

  • yeah, and all along i think we should have said that there's no way 2 tell who's better, because there really isn't. of course I'm going 2 be biased and say men are better for obvious reasons, just like everyone else will be biased, and like you, i got frustrated from reading these stupid comments...

    and i love jokes about anyone driving, because pretty much everyone is steryotyped there

  • and i've never seen anyone say a girl guitarist sucks unless they truly do blow at guitar, but as for the "hott" comments, well i kinda feel sorry for everyone on that...

  • sorry to disturb a 6 month old comment but those chicks from phantom blue can and do play better than most men

  • and sweet christ dont tell me youd like to see me play like that

  • I would pay to see you play like that!!!

  • no emotion behind any of the licks, and the riffs are cookie cutter. i could do far better when i was 13

  • Thats true though!

    I wish some of them knew how to bend a string!!!

    They are like MAB, playing nice and tight but not fighting to get the note!

  • do you talk about female guitar players???Cause i can send you a video of my live guitar solos.+there's no Steve Vai's,John Petrucci's and Romero's song that i can't play....and i'm 16 year old girl ,too! ;D

  • being able to play someone else's work doesn't make you good... they're talking about the originality factor. they are skilled, that's clear. but no emotion or innovation.

  • what???i do write my own songs too!

    !!!!!!!!!!i actually study music since my six.i started with classical guitar!

    BTW this is how i call ur opinions: SEXISM

  • Please! Send me these videos!

    :D

  • whats with girls man u say some small little thing and they get tottaly affensive...

  • sorry bad english but you need to listen to more phantom blue. i say you watch videos to youtube of fought it out, going mad, walking away and listen to some of the solo to be played. there are always two different players and i am not sure to who is playing which one but there is some very very melodic feirce playing, second walking away solo is the best

  • There is another chick band on the you tube called Zelpha trippe they're pretty good the video is rough but they rock for sure wish they had more stuff on the tube

  • Chicks who can shred are fuckin hot in general.

  • i cant find mp3s of that band any where ffs.

  • hey whats the seconds band name i want to know also.

  • whats the 2nd bands name?

  • Who is at 1:25?

  • michelle meldrum, ex-lead guitarist of Phantom Blue, And Meldrum

  • i ll play like them someday!remember this dudes!:P

  • someone tell me i'm not the only person turned on by women who can shred?

  • you aint the only one!

  • i freaking LOVE those girls!! :P

  • a woman who shreds is HOT!!!

  • omg whats wrong here?? ! fuck yeah !!!!! nice

  • The song at 1:24 is Time to Run from Phantom Blue and there's a video of it here on youtube... just search it up. One of the best songs EVER in my opinion

  • i realy dont understand when i see a guitarist better than me i feel jelous but when its a woman i feel even worse i respect women and belive that they can anything men can but when i see a female guitarist better than me i feel like shit there must be somthing wrong woth me :P

  • yea me too.
