Now I love female-fronted metal. It's a favorite sub-genre of mine, so I'm always interested in new bands playing this sort of music.
Enter Crysalys.
Just came across this online, so I clicked play...
Good lord! What a complete mess. What kind of singing is that? Haha. To illustrate my reaction, I give you Moshzilla:
If Crysalys was Moshzilla, then I'd be that guy behind her.

song isn't so bad. the singer looks like Kelly Osbourne though, & the drummer couldn't look more bored.

That was pretty poor. Can't decide if it's worse than this though;

That song's not so bad. I like "different" as well, like MC666. From the neck down that chick is bad to the bone as well, but her face isn't so great.

That first band... The music was pretty cool. The singing was way over the top and then she went into a normal voice which doesn't fit at all. Maybe if she didn't over dub her vocals a hundred times it wouldn't be so over powering.
The second band was actually pretty good all around.

That Crysalys reminds me of a Diablo Swing Orchestra demo.

Aside from the overdubbing and questionable fashion sense, the singer actually doesn't bother me that much. The song's pretty meh-tastic, though, and the video itself is awful-bad.
There are more disturbing places one can wind up on the Internet, though...

Good grief, that "Crysalys" video was awful! I couldn't make it past the two minute mark.
Bring back Jan Terri, all is forgiven!!

Is the title of this song a double entendre?

I fail to see why this is any more "horribly wrong" than any other band in that genre. It's all horribly wrong to this asshat.

She was entertaining, and had talent. As time rolls on, she is a million times better than what claims to be metal.

At one point in my listening history, symphonic metal was my favorite genre. I love the fusion of two seemingly disparate styles of music. However, I eventually just OD'd on it and abandoned the style. I can still listen to it but I doubt I'll buy any new albums trading in this genre.

I still enjoy some bands but toho is right - it is one really really oversaturated style.

All these video's posted suck pretty equally. They are all better than the latest Lou Reed/Metallica album though!
