Female Punk Singers (lead singer, dance, hardcore, rock, album)

I personaly like girl singers better. There a very very welcome change from the evryday mudane punk guy singer. F-minus for example. I think the girls in the band have much much better singing partsa and voices than the guys. To what end? Is probobly my FAVORTIE chick fronted band though

HAHAHA... thats ok! Alright maybe I am being a bit harsh. I just havent found a good female punk singer to date. Can anyone suggest any cool bands that might change my mind??? All the bands listed so far are not really punk. Cheers guys

Bratmobile
The Distillers
Devotchkas
F-Minus
To What end?
Selby Tigers
X
L7
Vice Squad
Juliette and The Licks
Dance Hall Crashers
Red Aunts
Atom and his package
The Violaters
The Slits
Visqueen
Lunachiks
X-Ray Spex
Crass
Tsunami Bomb
The Eyeliners

Is that good enough? I know not all of those bands are always fronted by females, but all of them have a good amount of material played and or sang by females.

Devotchkas are my fav girl punk band.Nice list All Night Dinah. There are good girl singers out there, just not as many as guys

i wouldnt say gwen was a punk singer, she just tries for the look. As for Avril, dont get me started sorry to her fans... But there are good bands like i reckon Go Betty Go is pretty cool, but not so punk i spose.

I havent seen anyone mention Naked Aggression, in my opinion Kirsten is one of the best female vocalists around right now, along with the chick from Tsunami Bomb

good female-fronted punk bands:
F-Minus, Nausea, Le Tigre (questionable on genre), and of course the distillers- which should have been the first group to come to everyones mind.
i dont even want to imagine how gwen stefani's name came up in a punk forum. once again...wow...

the distillers<3 but i think punk bands are kinda pressured into having a guy singer, not that theres anything wrong with that

but i think there should be more punk bands with female singers, when i make MY band, ill be the singer... somehow. i get REALLY nervous
