Katri from the now defunct finnish hardcore band Rakkaus (Love eng.) is pretty nice.

also the vocalist of swedish crust band Worst Case Scenario sounds really good

I can't really name one good punk singer male of female. Punk is not about the quality of the singer but the message.

How about The Runaways ? they're not exactly punk rock , but the way the vocalist sings is pretty punk isn't it ?

I just don't understand eather why the f**k Avril Lavigne comes up in this thread? She does so commercial music so far from punk...

I totally agree with Eltiraaz:

Some of you should listen to some of the old Riot Girl stuff from the Seattle/Washington area in the Mid-ninties. To anyone who doesn't know Riot Girl isnt a band but almost a hardcore punk subgenre or "scene" that was all based on feminism and empowerment. Some of it is really original and inspiring. Some good female punk singers come from bands like:

Stella Mars
Erase Errata
Sleater Kinney
Pretty Girls Make Graves (If you want to consider them punk more than Indie)

Plus i'll add a non exhaustive sample of bands:

- Bikini Kill (...from Olympia, hehe love them and yes i know, i know, the band is already mentionned in this thread...)

-The Gits (just listen to Mia's voice and how she was powerful dude)

-7 Year Bitch (one of my favorites!)

-Babes in Toyland (hear the singer damn scream)

-L7 (from CA, just mythic)

-Amy Miret

-Hole (even if i don't really like Courtney Love but her voice is more than well)

-Bratmobile

-Lunachicks (one other mythic band)

-Free Kitten (if you like Kim Gordon as i do)

-Brody Dalle

-Queen Adreena

-Otep Shamaya (out of the tread, right?)

-Joan Jett!!

and blablabla...What about Patty Smith, Nina Hagen etc?

I just think/feel/believe and at first hear that women punk singers are so amazing as well as men can sing. Hella equal and for some of them (a lot) even better...

So is my opinion.
