Ugly chicks don't sing that well I guess, at least in my experience. The only one that comes to mind is Janice Joplin.

I also want to add that The Agonist got a new hot blonde for a replacement. If she wasn't hot, I'm not sure if the band would stay alive.

Smell the Glove is the best album ever. What's wrong with being sexy?

Just watched that movie today actually.

Isn't like the bassist of Bolt Thrower a woman?

There's also a HUGE number of female fronted goth/symph metal bands.
