DENDURA'S FAVORITE FEMALE FRONTED BANDS

[Dendura]

I wanted to list other female fronted bands that we really like and that YOU really like so go ahead and list away! I am not done with this list and will mention more bands soon.


DENDURA FAVS AND WHY:
Epica - awesome dark themed symphonic, movie scoring metal music with angelic vocals

After Forever - Floor is one of the best singers of our time and the music has a symphonic sound. Clean vocals, great range, and can sustain notes longer than anyone I've heard before.

Amanda Somverville - another incedible singer with an enchanting and beautiful tone

Evanescence - love Amy Lee's voice.. period, not my fav in the music but love her voice

Within Temptation - one of the richest purest singers in metal, Sharon just has vocal beauty

To-Mera - who the heck sounds like To-Mera? No one!!! Tom is a bad ass guitarist, from the keys to the vocals, this band has incredible top notch players. Dream Theater hand picked them to open for them this summer.

Raygun Girls - These are our label mates and they have a unqiue sound compared to others out there. Great vocal tone, w/ a combination of hard rock mixed with industrial music!

 

[Dendura]

ok add to this, Publik Parking..

 

[MGD King]

After Forever Floor's voice left me at PPUSA!

 

[Dendura]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!! I havent EVER heard anyone who could out sing Floor.. I dont like comparing OR putting a competition on singers but to my ears, and being a singer, hands down, Floor in my book, is simply amazing and one if not the best I've heard! Much respect to that woman and she's also a voice coach. If I ever make it to the Netherlands, I'm gonna take lessons from her. The things I would learn!!!

You guys should check out NZ band Slipping Tongue: http://www.myspace.com/slippingtongue - up and coming band, going to take the world by storm.

 

[Dendura]

Here is me (Aziza) with some of these singers!

with Maria Brink of IN THIS MOMENT (very, very, very sweet), May 2007, Grand Rapids, MI - The Intersection

with Amanda Somerville. What a surprise, we opened for EDGUY and LIGHT THIS CITY and Amanda
was there supporting Edguy and visiting her hometown Flint. I was surprised and she was extremely nice as well.
Very conversational. We talked about singing for about 10 minutes. I was pretty giddy over this one as you can see in my face.

with Francine Boucher of Echoes of Eternity. Francine had everyone in the world asking for a picture. She was very nice as well.
My guitar player Steve got his pic with her too and his face is priceless here.

 

[The Metal Show]

We love Amanda Somerville! We didn't realize you were acquainted but it only makes sense ... You're looking hot, hot, hot as usual, Aziza! Thanks for inviting us ... -Chris @ The Metal Show
