- Just because they’ve got the feminine touch doesn’t mean they can’t also bring the house down. Welcome to MsMojo and today we’re counting down our picks for the top ten metal bands with female leads. Subscribe►►czcams.com/users/MsMojo?sub_c...

For this list, we’ll be looking at bands that specialize in some form of metal music, and which also happen to have a female as their frontrunner. We’ve based our choices on a mix of the female vocalist’s recognition, the band’s popularity, and what their music brings to the scene.
Special thanks to our user Paola Guerrero for suggesting the idea on our interactive suggest tool at www.msmojo.tv

I am so surprised by the lack of people that know about Jinjer. Tatiana is my absolute favorite female vocalist, and no one I've met has even heard of Jinjer.
They're touring US right now :)
@@richdrums6886 really, what states are they going to be touring in?
Tata is about a total bad mo’ fo’, Infected Rain can bring it too
Fernanda Lira - Nervosa
@@zoonie96 infected rain kicks ass😍
Why wasn't Black Veil Brides up there?
saw what you did their
Nice one! xD
As a BVB fan, I still find this hilarious!
Se7en Finally, a Black Veil Brides fan that can take a joke.
Stoned Thrasher I like Black Veil Brides too. Kinda... okay I only like one song
I love Nightwish, Within Temptation and Evanescence. But I was a bit sad that Ameranthe wasn't even an honorable mention...
Those are definitely my top three!
Not a nightwish fan anymore. I
Thought they were something so special but now without tarja they're just another metal band.
@@kalicunningham9139 At first a thought that too, but listen to Floor singing Tarjas old songs. She is not only able to replace Tarja, she is even better. And I never thought anybody could be better than Tarja, but Floor really is.
@@kalicunningham9139 I use to be a big Nightwish fan myself. But I agree since Tarja left they have taken a step back
Check out FRAYLE. Gwyn is amazing
The fact Halestorm is number 10 is disappointing, she’s a badass, and she is phenomenal in concert and studio
A riddle/joke:
How do Hitler and Lzzy Hale, one of the singers of the band Halestorm, compare and contrast?
They both have mean and angry demeanors.
However, one has a moustache while the other has none!
Considering my joke/riddle, imagine Lzzy Hale with a Hitler moustache and Hitler without a moustache, period!
Nobody can be pleased with anything; especially on an opinionated list!
I agree, seen them live 3 times and the 4th in 2 months!!
They should be in top 2 in my opinion after in this moment who are not even on this top 10!!!
Wtf why isn't in this moment on this list
Unknown Their singer is on a similar list of theirs though. But only as an honorable mention.
Kittie should have been in this
ik that makes no sense to me. or amaranthe. in this moment and amaranthe are fking amazing
Unknown same, the only reason I wanted to watch this
Paul Harrington exactly. get Evenascence off this list
Wow! I'm not used to people even hearing of Nightwish, Within Temptation and Epica. Or any music I like for that matter but here they are! This made my day all you need is Delain and we have all my favorite bands!
Thanks MsMojo!
Hell-yes! With Delain and it would have been a perfect list :)
Me too! That's exactly how I feel. And you are right, Delain is what's missing here!
Really? I saw Nightwish co-headline a festival a couple of weeks ago. Within Temptation kinda storms our charts whenever they bring out a new album and Epica was on national TV only a month ago. If anything they are huge.
+holy .sauron Maybe it's the country you live in. Might I ask, are you Dutch or German?
+The Oceansoul (Natalie) American we have some great classic rock but I've never been one for rap.
1. Where the hell is In This Moment and how is halestorm at 10!!!
Halestorm isn't even a metal band
Cause they suck
They are bias
@@DJMS_ Evanescence is on the list...they certainly aren't metal.
@@ryandonovan5895 they are symphonic hard rock
Me: **waits for In This Moment**
Also me: **Doesn't see In This Moment**
Me, again: Ight, I'ma head out
Mika X Drawings I was waiting for them too and Butcher Babies
@@derrekmedeiros747 you can't seriously compare Carla and Heidi to Tarja?
Maria's voice is a hit or miss live but it doesn't compare to the ones listed here (it's mostly symphonic metal listed here) Tarja is truly the best
What band on the thumbnail can anyone answer
@@chewcumber7365 halestorm
Before watching: Within Temptation and Epica better be on this
FINALLY
Oh wait.. Nightwish won again? seems i got great taste ;)
Mikael Andersson tbh I didn't think they shouldve been 1 #sorrynotsorry
And Lacunacoil! And Eths! And Arch Enemy!
EPICAN t was a lil confusing to me too, and lacuna coil over epica????
NO IN THIS MOMENT????? Even a mention of Maria Brink??? WOW I'm floored........
Exactly, if you like in this moment you should check out straight line stitche.
Seriously, how did Halestorm get on this list and not In This Moment?
Im literally so offended that didn't make it...
How the hell is Anneke Van Giersbergen not on this list? Not only is she one of the best vocalists in metal period, she arguably was the front woman that paved the way for other female fronted metal bands. Her work with The Gathering is legendary and don't get me started on how integral she is to Devin Townsend's music.
A riddle/joke:
How do Hitler and Lzzy Hale, one of the singers of the band Halestorm, compare and contrast?
They both have mean and angry demeanors.
However, one has a moustache while the other has none!
Agree! She's got such a powerful and beautiful voice
You're asking this on a Gizmodo offshoot called "MsMojo"
You gotta know all these channels are fuckin' straight trash, eh?
10. Halestorm
9. Girlschool
8. Walls of jericho
7. Epica
6. Lacuna Coil
5. Otep
4. Evanescence
3. Within Temptation
2. Arch Enemy
1. Nightwish
Arkona
Baby Metal
Eyes set to kill
Jinjer
The Agonist
Thank you very mutch:)
Baby Metal? really?
Jinjer should be in the top 10 not honorable mention and Lacuna Coil is a duet not female fronted and Halestorm is not metal. They're a hop, skip and a jump from being a "country rock" band. Girlschool is not a female fronted band because they're all females.
@@romanmarchenko7968 Why not
@@ashim0715 why thats sacrilegious.... Dont ofend us
In this Moment and The Pretty Reckless should both definitely be on this list.
not The Pretty Reckless there alternative rock, hard rock, and post-grunge, not metal.
Same thoughts.
#1 should have been In this Moment
I was about to have a mini rant, but you beat me to my point
No Xandria?? WTF
I was certain In This Moment was gonna be on here. Extremely disappointed it's not. The singer's voice is incredible
I completely agree! Maria Brink is an absolutely amazing vocalist! In This Moment should have been on the list
Evanescense, Nightwish, and Within Temptation. Middle school me is beyond happy.
I love Tarja, but .... Floor... she’s just not of this world with her vocals. God she’s amazing.
Also, I love Tatiana. I love Jinjer. I hope they make an official spot on a future reprise to this list.
WhoDarestheMAN gamer i respect your opinion.
gamer sorry bub,but floor is a far superior vocalist.
Ruth Clarke Agreed.
Agree with you, the Goddess is my favorite female voice ever and the metal Queen is a close second
@WhoDarestheMAN gamer Agree. Nightwish wouldn't be what it is today without Tarja.
Maria Brink?????
Gotta have Maria Brink clearly one of the best female metal singer/artist!!! C'mon!!!!
Se olvidaron de María Brink. 😢
Brian Dulaney it's a beautiful tragedy.....
Haven't watched yet, but if Nightwish isn't here, heads will roll.
YES!
***** ????
***** **slaps forehead** And I call myself a metalhead...gah!
I was thinking the same thing, but then I saw Nightwish as #1, so I'm not complaining. Just wish they had featured Tarja a little more. Was upset that they started with Anette, because she wasn't their first singer, and Tarja served them for 7 years. If not for her, the band wouldn't be where they are now.
Ana Forlin True...but now they have Floor and she's rocking the hell out of it. Endless Forms Most Beautiful is their best album yet, IMO.
"In This Moment' the most underrated female fronted band ever. I never see this band with the incredible Maria Brink as one of the greatest metal vocalist featured very often. I am not saying this list of talent is epic and stellar, but rather missing one of the greatest modern metal acts.
Dude, U R SO DAMN RIGHT ON THIS ONE...TO ME, I SWEAR TO GOD, IN THIS MOMENT WITH MARIA BRINK'S LEAD, TOPS ANY OTHER METAL BAND WHETHER IT"S MALE OR FEMALE BAND!!!!
The fact that Unleash the Archers isn’t here is absurd. Brittney’s voice could revive a dead man
underrated comment
A riddle/joke:
How do Hitler and Lzzy Hale, one of the singers of the band Halestorm, compare and contrast?
They both have mean and angry demeanors.
However, one has a moustache while the other has none!
Where is flyleaf? I'm also glad to see Babymetal getting an honorable mention.
Not metal
ik!!!!! I wanted to see them on this list!!!!
THIS!
In the Hard Rock video. Not metal.
+ThatOnePerson Evanescence is metal?
NIGHTWISH live at Wacken in 2013 with Floor is one of my favorites
Absolutely
One of the best live performances in metal history. Floor is an absolute goddess.
This list needs a part two! So many great female metal artists. I 100% agree with Nightwish at #1, Floor Jansen has the voice of an angel and the looks of a Valkyrie!
One of my favourite band is "Trees of Eternity". That ghosty vocal gives me goosebumps
Omg I love Trees of eternity!
As a personal lover of female vocals in metal genres, I think that Ms. Mojo should do a part 2, and maybe even a part 3 of this top including After Forever, Delain, Leaves' Eyes (one of the big bands in my opinion), In This Moment, The Agonist, Sirenia, Stream of Passion, The Gathering (another classic band), Theatre of Tragedy (of course), Xandria, Diabulus In Musica, Beyond The Black, Tristania, Kobra and the Lotus, Unleash the Archers, Avatarium, Draconian, Battle Beast, Nemesea, Amaranthe, Amberian Dawn, and well, I could continue, but in my opinoin, this bands also have carved their way to the top charts and reached high popularity.
Question: Would you consider the new singer in Leave's Eyes an improvement on Liv Kristine?
I think maybe it will, Liv is very talented and an icon already, I think she will do very good with her solo career or even with a new band or project. On the other side, Leaves' Eyes needs to release new material with Elina, we've only heard Fires In The North and some new re-recording of songs from the King of Kings album, maybe the new material will give the band a new twist and still rock the scene.
Heliodoro Faz Cryoshell should also be added
Unleash the Archers fuck yeah!
you seem to know a few female fronted bands mind giving out any suggestions?
The ones I listen to are: Unleash the Archers, (old) In This Moment, Arch Enemy, Triosphere (you should check them out as I'm fairly certain you haven't heard of them),
Within Temptation, Evanscence, Nightwish and a little bit of: Infected Rain, Cobra and the Lotus, Jinjer, September Mourning, (old) Eluveitie, Lacuna Coil
I also love Halestorm and dig The Pretty Reckless but they're not metal - but I'll gladly take Hardrock, Rock and Punk Rock suggestions aswell if you have any
Heliodoro Faz I agree. where is entheos?
I'm a simple girl, I see Halestorm , I click
Same
That's how you know who are halestorm freaks lol don't worry I am the same way
That's how you know who are halestorm freaks lol don't worry I am the same way
I've just discovered them recently and I love them
Haha so am i a simple guy
I am so old that i remember Girlschool as a warm-up band for Rainbow on the "Rainbow Rising" tour in denmark back in the days.
I liked them very much. Even went out and bought their record. Some of the best money i spent :)
Within temptation got me into symphonic metal. They're still one of my favourite metal bands.
my top five:
5. Leaves Eyes
4. The Gathering
3. Within Temptation
2. Nightwish
1. Lacuna Coil
Lacuna Coil is my number 1 too
Keddie Vobaine I adore them! Delirium has underwhelmed me a little but after 11 years nothing will diminish their reign as my all time favourite band! But I have to say I don't love Nightwish any less than LC. I was delighted to see them at number one!
But Otep and Evanescence in the top five was wrong in my opinion.
Michael Smith I don't think Evanescence are considered metal.
Keddie Vobaine Not gonna lie, Evanescence and Halestorm aren't metal at all to me. But I do think they are sort of OK on this list as fans of these mainstream bands might click on this and discover some of the more obscure ones
Oh shit, yeah. Where the fuck is Leaves Eyes!? >_< and I love Evanescence but they're not metal.
i love Arch enemy, Nemesis, Otep, Halestorm, Lacuana Coil and In this moment and Kittie
Thank you for including within temptation! my inner 10-years-ago teen is hyped
Lizzy hale has an amazing scream and voice...as well as being cute
what..the..fuck
this list was terrible
i love Evanescence, but they are FAR from metal
and how can you not even include In This Moment?!
They are extremely well known and successful.
Exactly my thought on Evanescence! It's not even close to metal wtf
ikr. in this moment is amazing.
I knew Evanescence would be on this list before I even clicked the video but the disappointment was still there. I love them but they're definitely not metal.
I came in thinking "In This Moment" too. They sing one of my favorite metal songs.
ik if u look on iTunes evanescence's music is on iTunes and there section on iTunes is rock. anyways iTunes is not wrong.
If Arch Enemy isn't on here...
You had me worried for a while there
I thought they were number one, my heart broke
+GrahfMetal yeah well I love them, and I have seen them so
GrahfMetal
I like Nightwish more though :D
+toreswe basically metal is life :)
I'm not too surprised my favorite band didn't make it even to the mentions :c but still saddens me that Unleash the Archers wasn't mentioned. you guys should check it out :D great vocals and great music
mentioning nightwish, epica, evanescence and within temptation brought me back to the times a few years ago, when i listened to symphonic and gothic metal, for a moment
How do you have Halestorm but not In This Moment🤨🤨🤨🤨
Because In This Moment sucks live
@@laurenblake659 But they are still a metal band while Evanescence is not.
@@SisterTheohild and like i said Maria's vocals suck live anymore and she changes clothes 200 times
@@laurenblake659 Maybe but on this list should be metal bands and Evanescence is not a metal band. And you can not tell me that Evanescence are metal bevause they are not. They are an alternative rock band.
@@Waaagh40KRed in person? Kinda, but i still enjoy their music. But i wouldn't consider Maria top tier with vocals at all
No In This Moment????
In This Moment is fantastic. I don't know how hey didn't put it here.
John Kravich I didn't watch the video yet... now I'm triggered
Agreed!!!
I waited to see if they were in this video just to be upset they werent
John Kravich that's what I thought as well
Wtf.. You missed some SERIOUS Goddesses. like In This Moment and New Years Day... You cant have Women vocals without In this Moment.. Not even a mention.
Have you listened to Nightwish?
WTF where is My Ruin?!!
I only discovered Night Wish a fortnight ago thanks to a friend! Amazing!
I was about to punch the screen with my fist when you played an After Forever song on the Epica section, until you mentioned Mark's departure. It was nice to mention the band, but you could of done it like, on the middle section xD .
Also, better luck finding more representative Nightwish songs next time, but this list was way better than the other attempts xD I like that you included more songs on each artist!
Finally someone said it! I absolutely love Anette but c'mon now, there are songs much more defiant of Nightwish's sound! I was hoping for Bless The Child and Wishmaster, I probably had much too high hopes.
+The Oceansoul (Natalie) I know! Instead they used a toned down versión of one of the worst songs ever recorder (bye bye beautiful). And I freaking love Nightwish, but those songs, ugh.
ThatOnePerson I so feel you, I couldn't believe it when I first heard the video version of Bye Bye Beautiful!! And now I see it used, that of all Nightwish songs! Unacceptable!
I was expecting Nemo. I have nothing against Anette, but there were so many other songs to choose from
Kawaii Potato Agreed!
Love Halestorm and Evanescence, but they shouldn't be here. Not Metal. Again, no Doro? And Lita Ford is more influential and more Metal than the aforementioned 2. Even if Hair Metal. Delain, Leaves Eyes, and The Gathering should've all been somewhere here. And Straight Line Stitch and Kittie if you want Nu Metal on here. But seriously, how can you snub Doro? That's like making a greatest Metal bands list and snubbing Priest, Maiden, Sabbath, Scorpions, Motorhead or Dio.
Dana Chappell they are metal
halestorm has a small amount of metal n there songs but there music is mostly hard rock and there confirmed hard rock and evanescence is metal like has metal n there music and also rock too but there also confirmed a rock band amy lee said n a interview back n 2003 "we are definitely a rock band"
Tatiana Shmayluk from Jinjer is an amazing awesome singer she is # 1 now in 2017/18/19 . . .
She’s good but she ain’t no Brittney Hayes from unleash the archers
Tatiana Shmayluk would mop the floor with Brittney Hayes' a$$.... no comparison...
1. Within Temptation
2. Epica
3. Nightwish
4. Lacuna coil
5. Amaranthe
6. Evanescence
Amaranthe has quickly made its way to the top of my favorite female fronted bands. Although, they have 3 vocalists, Elize Ryd's vocals are amazing!
Hard Rock isn't metal. Get it fucking right
Also don't use the word screamer. They are vocalists
Jared Reisma Thank you!
Sali Hamdan someone had to speak up lol
For mojo such things are to unimportant subtleties...
Actually using the term screamer refers to the vocal technique, so it is ok to call them screamers.
I listen to a lot of japanese metal band with girls. Not only metal mixed with pop like Babymetal, there are also japanese girls bands doing other kinds of metal too. Here are a few that I like :
-Exist Trace, which is/was a visual kei band. Now they have some electro sounds too. They are very well known.
-Aldious, which is power metal (please correct me if I'm wrong).
-Fate Gear, they use a steampunk esthetic.
-Galmet, they define themselves as melodic death metal.
-Bridear, I guess it's power metal too ? Not sure...
-PassCode, they use pop sounds, autotune, electro sounds and screamo. For those who know the band Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas, it's similar.
-Ladybaby, it's similar to Babymetal. They use to have a male singer too, but he left the band. Now they are a four girls band.
-Well Babymetal was is the video, but I can't not list it.
-GangLion, which is more hard rock than metal, I guess.
There are also some great japanese metal bands not entirely made of girls, but with girls in them. For example :
-Cross Vein, it's visual kei, similar to Versailles, but the singer is a girl.
-Magistina Saga, visual kei too. They take inspiration from fairy tales.
-Yosei Teikoku, they are great and they are especially known for the opening of Mirai Nikki.
-Unlucky Morpheus, they started as a Touhou metal band, now they have their own songs. There's the singer Fuki, who also has a solo career and is in several other bands, and the violonist Jill.
-Mardelas, with Marina, the former singer of Destrose.
-Blood Stain Child had two female singers, though now they're back with their first male singer.
There are other bands of course, but I don't know all of them. I'm interested if you know some other good japanese metal bands with girls ^^.
#5 Lacuna Coil
#4 Halestorm
#3 Evanescence
#2 Nightwish (Tarja)
#1 Within Temptation
Swap #4 and #3, and I'm with you
Excellent list! I saw several of my favorites, including Nightwish (of course), Within Temptation, and Arch Enemy. One I would add as an honorable mention is Eluveite. While Anna Murphy was "co"-lead vocals, she was incredible. After her departure last year, Nichole stepped in and is also amazing.
Also: Ancient Bards has excellent female vocals: one of my all time favorite songs is "Through My Veins".
Halestorm is not metal, they're hard rock.
so there fucking amazing
That has absolutely nothing to do with what genre they are.
Can we PLEASE get it into our heads that metal is NOT one particular style, but several subsets? Halestorm is metal, reminiscent of the early 80's metal days (before it went south IMO). They even won a Heavy Metal award!
@@XxShilar Halestorm is not fucking metal. Get it through your thick skull. They are hard rock.
amazing list!
Great clip!
What about In this Moment, New Years Day, The Pretty Reckless?
Cassandra Cronje Ik, nobody ever mentions them, also butcher babies.
Alex Ulasinska New Year's Day doesn't have nearly enough credit, ash is amazing
the pretty reckless isn't metal, there hard rock, alternative rock, post-grunge, and blues rock, there is a difference out of all of those, I don't think new years day is not noticeable enough compared to these bands, and yea in this moment should definitely be on this list.
Pretty Reckless should be included. Lyrics have morbid themes.
no they shouldn't cuz they are not metal.
When will In This Moment get any respect? I mean, Maria Brink has been voted Rock Goddess twice now
Yeah so fucking what.
Women like Floor, Simone, and Sharon have been doing it long and are far better and the bands they are in have all done more for metal then Maria.
Delain124 I get what you're saying, but in this moment should've at least made the list.
Joshua Graham
No they have not do much to really push the genre forward or even open up doors for other bands. No like the three women I just named. That's why you don't have other bands such as New Years Day (who are not metal) on here. I don't agree with having Eva on here seeing as how they are not metal. But on the other hand they opened up the door for people to find bands like Epica and Nightwish and helped along with bands like Epica and Nightwish bring more women into metal.
Joshua Graham
I will put it to you this way when In This Moment is play at more really big metal fests then you can get back to me. As it stands though they just are not that big. I mean they have yet to even play Graspop or Wacken Open Air. Those are the two biggest metal fests in the damn world. They have to play at either one at some point if they want to really be talked about along side bands like Epica, Within Temptation, Halestorm, Nightwish, etc.
check out kobra and the lotus
Finally MsMojo is spot on with this rank even when amaranthe was left aside the top ten and 3 first places are right 🤘 those three bands have influenced and changed the female metal scene remarkably. Amazing singer Floor Jansen.
Alissa is so good that two of her bands were mentioned. :)
top 10 female drummers in rock music??? please!!!
Briana Reyes Yasss! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Agree :D, drummers from bands like The Donnas, Crucified Barbara, Skillet,.......shoud be there list or HM part....
Briana Reyes How bout the girl from london that's the drummer for Pop Evil. (I saw them at concert and DAMN! THAT GIRL WAS ROCKIN IT!)
Yassssss. My girl, Jen Ledger better be #1!
jen ledger from skillet and Marina Bozzio from Aldious come to mind
I can't believe Kittie didn't make the list.
Yea same here WTF
Yet evanescence does. They’re wack as fuck
Those were the band with female lead, meaning rest (or most) of the band is male. So Kittie does not qualify for this. But I love them too :)
Girlschool was 9, and they are all-female as mentioned in the video.
Oh, so it was, my mistake.
My favorite is in this moment they definitely deserve a place in this list
You ought to dig into the huge number of all females bands in japan. Having the second largest music industry in the world, its incredible to see how common it is for women there to be involved as much as men esp. in the rock/metal genre. Some of the best ones imo are Band Maid, lovebites, Doll$boxx, Aldious, Mary's Blood and Bridear. You'd be surprised to know that this has been the case since the early 80s and the only reason why its become rare to see females in these genre of music today is probably because of Japan's strict copyright laws like prohibiting even fancams in their concerts and their reliance on tradition music distribution systems rather than digital and online medium like youtube.
Its only been a few years since Japanese artist have started to open up their music to the international audiences through their youtube channels and such. Jpop idol groups managed by few of the biggest music labels were pretty much the only ones that barely surfaced early on but things are starting to change rapidly esp. with babymetal making waves recently and while it also further adds to the 'unique' characteristics that some japanese media is already known for but for better or for worse, its definitely proved that online presence is crucial today. And the best part is the huge rock/metal scene there is gradually starting to realize that they are being very well received by the international viewers and this has led to many of them finally releasing their contents online. A majority of them probably still remain buried but things are definitely changing albeit slowly.
Nightwish was saved by Floor Jansen
Yes mam! Amen!
Its not that Annette was bad. By all means, she was talented. It was just eclipsed heavily by Tarja and Floor (which are incredibly high bars)
@@fatcarl76 Exactly. Hard to follow a voice like Tarja's.
absolutely. After Tarja was asked to leave, I lost interest after their 1st album with the replacement girl whom I forget her name. Watching Jansen sing and perform gives everyone the Floorgasm
I only discovered a few weeks ago that Floor was now with Nightwish since 2016. I did know she was with Nightwish to finish the tour in 2013 after they gave the other girl the boot, but I thought it was a temporary thing as Floor had ReVamp (they weren't very good and could do floor Justice
I wonder how they'll replace Marko now, He complimented Floor so well
Halestorm is not metal, they are hard rock
CalmingNight arguable. they definitely fit the definition of metal, but borderline.
well at least there on the bottom on the list. there mostly hard rock and confirmed hard rock. but they also have a small amount of metal n there songs.
what exactly is the definition of metal though?
scifino1 I was just thinking about this post on my way in to work. the line is so blurred on bands like Halestorm that you can't really definitively say one way or the other.
evanescence is rock also

Daniel Mart nobody remembers IWrestledABearOnce?
jmohlerr i do! Krysta Cameron definitely should have been on this. Even though she was the original lead singer not the newest one. Though the band broke up recently :(
@daniel mart thank u very much i very mucg agree
You guys should check out Aghora. That band has a Female Lead, but I don't know if they are ever going to release another album.
Flingship373 Yeah, but man... HAHAHA it took me so long to get into their music!
is that the band that sang minds reality and atmas heave? I FUCKING LOVE THAT BAND. good progressive metal with lady vocals
Otep is amazing. I am glad she placed on this version of the list.
How can you not love Amy Lee's voice that deep angelic tone is so hauntingly beautiful.
I really glad Halestorm made the list!! I'm a huge fan of them and Lzzy Hale!!
What about IN THIS MOMENT ! SHAME
The lead singer in evanescence Has a very pretty voice
Amy Lee ♥
Although Lacuna Coil is my #1, I do also watch this channel to get myself exposed to bands I've never heard of, even if their the kinds I'm not too fond of.
I don't care what you people say about Evanescence, their first album was Nu Metal & their second was Gothic Metal, & I think it's good shit & I don't think of them as a one hit wonder band at all with songs like everyone's fool, going under, call me when you're sober, & lithium.
PATRiCKFBi MetalHead im an evanescence fan too. but always thought they'd be more alternative rock. but I thought the same about within temptation so I'm prob not good with genres
Right she's amazing singer every one sucks who dislikes her
Evanescence is definitely good... But there's nothing metal about them. Nu-Rock, Gothic Rock, Hard Rock, sure.... They're not metal tho
While I really like Evanescence, I clearly prefer some other bands with female lead over them. They have some really great songs but they seem too similar imo. Other bands like Epica and Within Temptation are more diverse with albums that actually sound different from each other. In the case of Evanescence, their first albums sound a lot like their newer ones while Epica for example developed their music much more as time went on (just compare the phantom agony to any of their newer albums).
Lol Evanescence is soo "metal" let me tell you.
You guys are still not even gonna mention New Years Day and Ash Costello's awesome vocals? I know they're not the heaviest metal band, but they're really good.
They are not a metal band. They are a hardrock band. There is a reason they were moved to the Another Century label from Century media. Century media deals with Metal bands. Another Century deals with hardrock bands. Why is that so hard for people like you to get?
+Delain124 I had no idea they used to be with Century Media. I've never over-analyzed NYD's music, or really thought about it, but I can see why they'd probably fit into the "hard rock" label.
mjolnerd
Here's the thing the if NYD were to tour with Delain. Delain has more metal riffs going on. On top of that the whole set up of Delain is metal they then mix in the other sounds. NYD does not have the metal riffs. That's not to say they don't have riffs at all. But if you start counting them then soon you can say just about any band is metal. KANSAS has riffs in there songs but it does not make them a metal band.
+Delain124 great point. I'll have to check out more Delain songs.
Good list and i mostly agree. Would like to see Blackbriar's Zora on that list or at least an honorable mention.
No Maria Brink of In This Moment?! She’s insane! Their best music videos are the ones she was creative director for, I friggin love her!🤘🏼👯♀️🤟🏼
Halestorm, In This Moment, Evanescence were MY favorites.
Amy 😘😘😘💜💜💜
Yeah same
were?
Jamal Sampson Halestorm is shit. Lizzy Hale is a hack
Depends on yer ears maybe you need em cleaned out.
She said EPICA but played an After Forever song and video wtf lmao.
SSBMsounds Explaining Mark's relationship between Epica and After Forever.The contain is about Epica.
Terry Chen Yeah but it's still a confusing place to put the song. They should've at least started with an epica song before playing after forever.
I was thinking the same thing.
Epica = Simone Simons, After Forever, Revamp, Nightwish = Floor Jansen...
No Kittie, In This Moment or Butcher Babies?!?!
No Jack off Jill or my ruin either
I forgot about Butcher Babies O.o
Kittie was popular in a couple of countries for about 2 years. Who the hell even remembers them these days apart from elitists trying to sound relevant?
@@pineappletree50 you're an idiot...Kittie is badass
Mikey B that comment is far to high brow for me to even respond. Really glad you added so much to the conversation. Bravo good sir and good day to you
1- infected rain
2-spiritbox
3- straight line stitch
4- butcher babies
5- arch enemy (with angela)
6- in this moment ( only the first 2 albums)
7- jinjer
8- kittie
9-deadlock
10- walls of jericho
female fronted bands are the best 🤘🤘🤘
YOU FORGOT "IN THIS MOMENT"
OMG. YOUR LIST IS INCOMPLETE!
Kittie is more metal than most of these bands.
Been doing it longer and better as well.
Jim Janssen yes!
Jim Janssen
Otep should be nummber 1 they're way better.
I would definitely include Tarja up there, of course. And a big favorite of mine is Alissa White- Gluz of Arch Enemy. There's plenty more.
Halestorm is *not* metal. They're great as hell, but not metal.
metal does not = hard rock
Evanescence doesn't belong on this list either, they're like alt rock
@@laurenblake659
Evanescence is gothic metal.
Halestorm sits right on the dividing line between hard rock and metal, which are so similar that it really makes no difference. You're arguing the difference between fire engine red and fire mist red.
Technically, Halestorm is hard rock/alternative metal.
@@garyballard179 Evanescence isn't even metal
@@garyballard179 hard rock and metal are not the same. I have Halestorm lyrics tattooed, but they're not metal
At this moment.... There is NO IN THIS MOMENT! Dude, i was like, they have to be number 1 if they werent number 2
My thoughts exactly.
My top:
1. Within Temptation (though can we talk about the way you pronounced Sharon den Adel's name?)
2. Evanescence
3. Epica
4.Halestorm
5. Nightwish
6. Delain
7. Lucano Ecoil
8. Girlschool
I cringed inside too when she pronounced Sharons last name >.< I hardly understood it, hardly noticed she was saying her name XD
Well, the narrator is english and not dutch, so can you blame her?
No Eluveitie ?
Evanescence isn’t metal
wtf where is xandria where is amberian dawn Nemesea???
I was hoping to see the ALL FEMALE BAND "KITTIE" on this list
Roy Ross me to
A bit late but SAME!!
This is the best top 10 you have ever done
Where's In This Moment?!
Exactly what I was thinking...
My favorites are Eluveitie, Evanescene and Nightwish
Arch enemy.....love to see them on this list....kudos to you.....mr...miss....m/s...or whoever you are....thank you
In this Moment and Amaranthe missing!!!!
Why didn't In the Moment make it on here?
Shoulda had the #1
Sweet Pea RIGHT! I LOVE THEM I SAW THEM TWICE IN CONCERT
What about Amaranthe?
More metal and better than Evenescence, but they're still fairly young. If there was a top ten hybrid metal bands with a female lead, they'd better be top 5
Amaranthe is the best! Digital World is my anthem. I was sorry to see they weren't on here.
Yooo i forgot about them!! Thank you!
They should be here. Great band.
Pissed they aren't on here, along with Unleash the Archers and Once Human. Glad to see Jinjer, Arkona and Arch Enemy made the list in some way.
(Fucking Nightwish at #1.... GTFO!)
I need a feminine metal band in my life.
Also, 0:20 I thought that was CC at first.😂😂😂 If you like black veil brides you know who I'm talking about.
We all know Halestorm was gonna be on here, right? I mean, come on, they're the best
wtf where is xandria where is amberian dawn delain Nemesea??? heaelstorm aint got nothin on bands i listed take ur softcore shit to bed with u weak ass....... haelstorm isnt even metal bitch lol
They suck. They're weak, they're not even a metal band.
I like Lizzy Hale
@@retrodarkgamer420 stereotypical guy
I have Halestorm lyrics tattooed, i love them, but they don't belong on this list
I love bands with female lead singers they are unique
A riddle/joke:
How do Hitler and Lzzy Hale, one of the singers of the band Halestorm, compare and contrast?
They both have mean and angry demeanors.
However, one has a moustache while the other has none!
@@jasonlau4423 Now that's funny
I totally forgot about In This Moment. Her and Kittie are the Hot Topic on girl bands that are rock
My top.
1. Arch enemy
2. Butcher babies
3. In this moment
4. Jinjer
5. The agonist
6. Halestorm
7. Evanescence
8. Otep
9. Epica
10. Nightwish
JINJER is definitely number 1 in my opinion LOL! But I agree with this list.
@@Borderlands2lova lmao and thanks :)
Evanescence is the only one on here that I know, but I like the sound of Halestorm and Within Temptation. I have to check them out.
Also judging by the number of people that have mentioned In this Moment and Pretty Reckless, I should probably check them out too! ;)
You definitely should check out all of them, they all have some very solid talent and material. And if you are in to any of that, check out Blackbriar. Newer, unique and fun. ❤ Zora!
