yay!!! youre back!

What?! I thought we were best friends.

nice to have you back as well. be good though.

Oh man!


:) good to be back.

What?!? I can't believe there are people out there that don't like girl singers in bands. That's terrible! And why has no one mentioned Stevie Nicks? I am practically in love with her! Ugh don't even try to say girl singers suck...it makes me sad : (

Girls don't have the voice to sing in metal or rock bands though.

Obviously men and woman sound different when they sing.
There are female singers who make the music that much better, but then there are some that make it that much worse, visa versa for men.
With all the difference's in how people sing, style is a big factor.
Woman are usually assosiated with softer, more melo music, but men are also capable of softer tones.
In retrospect, woman vocalists in rock bands = A-okay.

Baloney...There are some good metal bands out there with female vocalists, Lucuna Coil and Walls of Jericho are just two examples...Anyway, heres some other good rock bands with a female member or two.

Heart
Fleetwood Mac
Jefferson Airplane
Janis Joplin
Velvet Underground (with Nico)
Blonde
X
Renaissance
Portishead
Sonic Youth
The Pixies
Talking Heads
Kate Bush
Patti Smith
Mostly Autumm
Skunk Anansie
The Donnas
Alanis Morrisette

Yeah, fair enough. I'm not a fan of any of the bands you listed, but that's just my opinion :)
I really want to play guitar in a metal band but most people seem to think that girls don't have the right image for metal. I don't agree with that, I just think they are not good singers for the type of music.

Wait a minute, arent you a Rush fan? ;)

lol-yeah, good point. :)

you are sadly mistaken sir.

have you never heard of arch enemy?

oh...and also...check these guys out

Nausea

re
 

I love bands with female vocalists and bands that are all female.. like for instance Kittie are my favorite band and yes they are metal not rock but they are great. I love otep Metal also but great female vocals. Pat Benatar, Blondie, Concrete Blonde, Pink(yes she is rock), My Ruin metal/rock/sludge, Heart, Siouxsie and The Banshees, The Creatures, The Kidney Thieves industrial, Dynabyte, Flowing Tears, Leaves Eyes, Liv Kristine, Theatre Of Tragedy, Nightwish, The Gathering, Joan Jett, Lita ford and yes I know most of these are a bit alternative as in "goth" but they are either rock or metal and have female members and they deserve respect just like the men in music..



__KYLE__

The Donnas - these chicks WROCK!!!

L7 - these chicks really used to do it for me (listen to bricks are heavy)

Stevie Nicks for God's sakes

All 3 of these entries have permanent status in the space of my brain which I affectionately call "THE SPANK BANK":pimp:

Female singers in rock bands are awesome!

Angelena Gossow
Christina Gossow
Morgan Lander
Agent M

To name but a few

is was about to say if you think female singers in metal bands arent any good you've obviously never listened to Angelena Gossow in Arch Enemy have you!! absolute awesomeness and has a scream to put most male metal singers into retirement!!!

Sir? I'm a girl by the way.
Yeah, I've heard of arch enemy before, just haven't really listened to their stuff, but I might now. :)

Anne Wilson
Nancy Wilson
Stevie Nicks
Janis Joplin

i dont mind chicks in rock bands, but they gotta be good though. examples of great bands w/chicks:
-Heart
-Fleetwood Mac
-Janis Joplin
-Mamas and the Papas

Im having a brain lapse I know theres others

Bad:
-No doubt
-Garbage

I know she's 'poppy' but Melissa Etheridge has a fabulous voice. Some of her songs are rather rock orientated so thats why I let her slip under the radar and gave her a mention in this thread. :D

Ok then! What about Chrissy Amphlett from The Divinyls.Not a bad looker in her day plus her voice wasn't bad

The Crandberries! I also like The Donnas.

And Concrete Blonde

SPIDERBAIT!

some songs anyway...

^and spikey
you know you wanna say it

oh yeah... spikey's band is LE SEXIZZLE!!! /shameless promotion






yes, she is paying me....

Oh yeah of course i forgot jefferson airplane. . . FEEEEEEEED YOOOOUURRR HEEEAAADDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)

Umm excuse me well she isn't a crooner by any means but does WENDY O WILLIAMS ring a bell????? I mean she went from punk to metal and even dabbled (though horribly) in rap and was more then effective in metal and punk, metall esepcially, she had moer balls then many guys at that time

totally seperate style all together, but no-one seems to be mentioning Pat Benatar, either...

^After reading that one post i think i like you :)


and their is ALOT of crust bands (nausea,contravene,witch hunt) that have female singers and (not to be sexist) i prefer them over most male crust singers.

got my first hard on to Wendy.

*gawrsh* awww shucks, thanks.. even before seeing that, I like it here (the forum as a whole)
The Yeah Yeah Yeahs are still underrated, too IMO

We no longer like you.

:laughing:


Yes i do.
He may not but he likes GG allin..soooo ;)

be nice

:p:

Actually considering the fact you actually know GG was in a band.
I don't hate you for liking him.
It bugs me when people go "OmFg im punx GG 4 Lief?! wha?! who r the murder junkies?!?!"

I'm just kidding. GG is an aquired taste

I knwo he was in a band but was it that he aws in a lot of bands or after a certain point he began to run it? I'm sort of a late comer I don't liek ALL his stuff I like the Jabber's stuff the msot but now we're getting way off-topic of the original topic :eek:
