Female Punk Singers

Throwing out Erica Freas from RVIVR. Always been a big fan of her voice, I find it preferable to Matt's but whatever. It's his band too. Has absolutely no weigh-in on her talent but damn, she's fine as hell too.

This is her acoustic, solo stuff.

Anyone mention Punch yet?

Not that it's easy to tell a vocalist's gender with music like this, screamy as ****. I'd put her up there with whatshisface from Saetia or any other notable screamo band's 99% male vocalists (what's up with that, anyways?). Not that this is screamo, per say.

It's been a major news story here since her body was found on Capitol Hill that summer of 1993. It was incredibly frustrating for many many years until the big break last year.

I truly hope that fucker rots. It totally honks me off that he had twenty years of freedom.

Are you saying 99% of screamo vocalists are men? You should listen to more Lord Snow, 1905, I Would Set Myself on Fire For You, Ravachol, Mahria, Circle Takes the Square, and junk.

Too awesome

I've hung out with Sarah from ATU here, she's pretty cool.

Cloud Rat is one of the best hardcore bands out there right now, ultrafast and heavy melodic grind/powerviolence with a lot of screamo influence. Madison is also super tight on vox.

I'd forgotten about CTTS, IWSMOFFY, and 1905! The other bands, haven't heard um. I don't listen to a lot of screamo but most of what I've seen and heard is dudes. Especially at shows? Almost always 90% dudes. Sausage fest. Although I guess that goes for plenty of other genres too, pop punk definitely not excluded.

Never heard of Lord Snow or ATU—pretty legit stuff, thanks for the share.

I Would, etc., CTTS, and 1905 are great! I really like Jess Kamen's vocals from 1905 because she somehow retains the punk aesthetic even while shifting from melodic singing, to brittle screaming, to spoken word. Lindsey Leigh Harbor's vocals in most of I Would's songs are more ethereal, almost floating on top of their songs like her cello/violin playing. I'm not sure if she screams too much. The part where she first comes in during one of their early releases, "Chinese Freeze Tag," is something that really gets me every time.
