At least that's what I feel these days. Maybe it's just me getting old. I like bands and singers to be a little less cartoony, a little more grounded. Or "boring", if you prefer. That's now how I see it, obviously.

Hansi Kursch sings like his life depends on it. She sings like she's in Hinder. And I say this as someone who doesn't much listen to power metal anymore, even Blind Guardian. Hell, I don't even listen to Iron Maiden all that much anymore.

She absolutely sounds like she's singing in some post-post-grunge band who are going for hard rock but have their roots way too far in mid-late 00s post-grunge to escape that tag.

I don't even get that. I'd describe the singing style as 'heavy metal' before anything else. I don't know what post-grunge bands you've heard that I haven't, but maybe I'd dig them!

I'll bet she "just relates more to guys".

So she's not girly enough? She also designs metal fashion and has provided outfits for many other metal bands, even a few big ones. Does that help?

She sounds like her favorite band in high school was Pantera and now it's Five Finger Death Punch.

Aside from how the band frequently covers obscure heavy metal bands and her singing style sounds a lot like Bruce Dickinson's, but yeah, allright then.

I guess now we can just move this thread to "Music was better in the glorious day of yore". Sad.
