This is kind of just so i can get suggestions of some more ideas for music to listen to as i am mainly interested in female vocalist bands(most guys just can't sing! ) but also i love the nightwish/lacuna coil/evanescence debate and i wanna see who wins here. So who do you think is the best female fronted band of all time and why (please include their genre of rock/metal)

i think garbage has the best female in the world. (if youve not heard of them ill be very suprised!) though there not metal...they do really good 90;s brit rock sorta stuff and i love there techno-y sound aswell.
the distillers are always cool aswel.

I love femme metal, so bands like Nightwish, Lacuna Coil, After Forever, Epica, Elis, Amaran, Flowing Tears, Season's End (everyone come and see them at Eddies on December 1st!!!!), Tristania, Theatre of Tragedy, Within Temptation.....to name but a few, who are fall under either symphonic or gothic metal, generally, although some of those bands are just general metal who just happen to have a female singer.
Anyway I seem to have drifted off-topic. I think Nightwish is probably the best of the ones I mentioned, although Tristania (for example) comes under a different genre and they are best at their genre. So it just depends what you're into!!

Personally, i love Evanescence (their older stuff in particular) and Lacuna Coil are awesome too but i'm not a fan of Nightwish in the slightest, dunno why tho :s

Queen Adreena. I adore them... i've always classed them as ''glock-rock'' because after hours in gcse maths me and my friend couldn't decide any other thing to call them.... they used glockenschpeils (sp?) in their first album on a song.

nightwish and lacuna coil first, then within temptation and after forever. bloodflowerz and madder mortem are two of my new favourite female fronted bands tho

Fallen is an Amazing album!!!! i'v never heard the origin album though. N thanx to shell for the huge list of bands! I tend to be quite specific with the bands i listen to but wanna branch out. Anything female fronted syphonic metal or epic metal i like.(except synergy) N garbage is a great band (although i only really like their most modern album (i forget what its called)) I'm amazed no-ones mentioned The gathering i'm a big fan of their music even if they aint around anymore!

I love The Gathering, I also love gothic doom bands like Draconian who have both male and female singers.
