Inspired by this post, I wanted to make a post asking about your favorite metal bands with women in them and maybe your favorite release from them too.
For me, that’d be Crypta. They’re a Brazilian Death Metal band made up of only women. Their Shades of Sorrow album is absolutely incredible with some really mean vocals and great riffing.
Eths, Entheos, Vintersea, Igorr, Diablo Swing Orchestra
- Jinjer
- Ithaca
- The Anchor
Maria Brink from In This Moment. Love her voice and the music.
No ones said spiritbox yet
I’d recommend Ragana. Excellent black metal duo who happen to be women.
Smoulder is a great trad/doom band with a female vocalist. Savage Master is a really fun trad band with a female vocalist. Castle Rat is a cool new doom band with a female vocalist.
Wargasm for your limp bizkit nu metal riffs without the rapping. Currently putting out quality too
Undead corporation
- Calva Louise - Third Class Citizen
- Heriot - Coalescence
- Capra - The Locust Preacher
- Ex People - Dread
- Cassyette - BOOM
Edit - thought of a couple more…
- Black Moth - Blackbirds Fall
- Vodun - Mawu
Most of the bands I would mention have already been listed by others, but I would suggest Ad Infinitum. I love how fast she switches from a clear, beautiful singing voice to a low growl and back.
Stabbing!
First bands that come to my mind are…
- Asagraum (black metal)
- blackened nocturn slaughtercult (black metal)
- messa (doom metal)
Potestas magicum diaboli. First album from asagraum. I remember listening to it over and over. It felt fresh for me at that time and it aged really well.
Dissemination
Adding one more: Battle Beast. Noora Louhimo’s voice just remained imprinted in my brain. Can’t really pick a favorite release.
