Quality Female-fronted Metal Bands

[Omni]

Reino Ermitaño is an example of what I mean. Nightwish is an example of what I don't mean.

I'm open to all genres of metal except for gothic, industrial or symphonic trash.

 

[CiG]

Two of my favourites.

Featuring the same singer as Détente - Dawn Crosby (R.I.P.) -, but the music is much darker and more diverse:

 

[The Butt]

I was going to post Detente. Awesome stuff.

 

[CiG]

 

[The Ozzman]

This is different from Detente and shit, but I'm dropping it anyway

Estuary:

May or may not be what you want, but if you want black metal fronted by a chick...

A few more recommendations:

Sacrilege from the UK released three albums which sound quite different from each other. Whereas the debut "Behind The Realms Of Madness" sounds similar to Détente's "Recognize No Authority", but has an even rawer sound, their second album "Within The Prophecy" could be classified as Thrash Metal with more elaborate song structures while the third album even has some doom influences.







Something more traditional:


(IMO the best song on Malteze's only album.)

 

[Krow]

forgot Hands of Orlac.

 

[Funerary_Doom]

I'm posting on my phone and for some reason I can't load up the videos posted so I have no idea what's been recommended. But have you heard Second Grave?

[Phylactery]

You're probably already familiar with these but:

Mythic - Mourning in the Winter Solstice



Crushing.

Derketa - In Death We Meet



Astarte - Doomed Dark Years



Astarte's later material is pretty bad, but Doomed Dark Years is decent Darkthrone worship.

 

[The Ozzman]

I forgot about Derketa. I need to listen to that album again.
