I'm with you. I love Floor's voice, but I'm not a fan of After Forever. Nightwish had their moments (when Tarja was in the band), but they never really excited me. Epica, Leaves Eyes, Delain, etc., just aren't my cup of tea. There's only been three female-fronted Metal bands who have held my interested in the slightest...
Lacuna Coil... strong song writing and a unique style.
Sinergy... Kimberly Goss sings with more balls than most men.
Amaran... very powerful Metal, and the amazing vocals of Johanna De Pierre.

I confess to not being a huge fan of female-fronted bands, but you guys should check out Benedictum. Their CD "Seasons of Tragedy" was my most listened-to CD of 2008. They even do a cover of Accept's "Balls To The Wall" that blows away the original. And it's hilarious to hear a female sing that song anyway.
Sorry if someone has already mentioned the band, as I have not read all the posts in this thread.
