Favorite Metal Band with Female Vocals

Arch Enemy -Their vocalist puts on such a great performance. And she totally breaks barriers with her vocal style. When they first came out there wasn't as many female vocalists doing that style. She's definitely made an impact.

I'm amazed that no one has mentioned In This Moment - with Maria Brink on lead vocals.

So far, they've released 2 albums - Beautiful Tragedy, ( a classic if you're into the screaming stuff), and The Dream which shows off Maria's melodic vocals to perfection.

They're nothing particuarly original and the girl looks like a bit of a tw*t. But for some reason I'm quite looking forward to seeing them in August....

My favorite is Dark Moor when they had Elisa Martin.Simone Simons and "Mari" provide some of the best accompanying female vocals on Kamelot's Epica and The Black Halo records.I really like After Forever and Within Temptation -- both quality. I would also recommend Elfonia, whose violinist/vocalist Marcela Bovio performed on Ayreon's The Human Equation.

Otep Shamaya will always be a favorite of mine; her lyrics, her message, and the music itself is all so beautiful.
I also like the vocalist of The Agonist.

Hmm, I don't know too many to be honest. Probably Arch Enemy, Nightwish and Lacuna Coil.

I'd like that song so much more if the keyboardist ****ed off

Epica is kind of good. I usually don't really listen to gothic but their lead singers voice is just.. well.. Epic.
And Deadlock is nice beauty and the beast styled band. And they manage to carry it out perfectly.

just found this band called HolyHell, some amazing gothic-ish vocals. Singer's name is Maria Breon.
