Cadaveria is great. At times, the singer sounds exactly like Dawn Crosby.

she does indeed, when she's not doing her blackened vox.

anyone remember this?...

I have that Drill album. It's okay. I like Lucia's solo album much better.

yeah i have it too. it's my favorite simply because it was my first time hearing her. i heard this very song on a Concrete Corner free sampler cassette given to me at one of the local record shops. i bought it the next day.

That song, the way she screams, reminded me of Pet. Ever heard of this short-lived band? I think they were the first, and maybe only, signing to Tori Amos's imprint back in the 90s. The album is brilliant.





And that voice! So good. Her name is Lisa Papinieau. Her solo stuff is great, too, but wicked mellow. Nothing like Pet.

Was just checking the out the latest work from the guy who did the artwork on Shock Totem #2, and came across this video:



I know nothing about them, but I really dug this tune.

Thanx Freddy - how could I forget Lee Aaron...used to love her...

Don`t think this band has been mentioned yet, awesome band from Finland. Their debut Euphorialight is great.

I really liked that first clip..... -adds to the list-

Embassy of Silence
Six Magics
Heathers

Dude, everyone knows that band! Haha.

I'll try again.

Hey Kmorg, if you do a Google search for Messiah Force (as I just did), your website review is the 2nd listing that comes up, right after Encyclopedia Metallum.

Nice job!!

PS Ult's is 4th, right behind the band's Myspace page.

Hah, that is really cool! There are some bands that Google always has my site pegged for

From The ashes of Emerald came Seventh Sign w/ Brenda Wilmuth-Barnett on vocals.

I have mp3's of 2 demos from them. One of the band members sent them to me some years ago.

Where you in Emerald, James?

Go Canada go!

IMO, there will never be a better female-fronted metal band than Nightwish when Tarja was their vocalist.

IMHO Tarja was overrated her vox did nothing for me,

So with that IMHO There is no better female fronted band than the Runaways

But Female Fronted Rock/Metal rules!!!!!

I am a fan of female-fronted bands in general and have been for over 30 years now, ever since I heard Joan Jett singing for the first time. There's a lot of great bands out there.

Just came across this. Sounds really good.

Hysterica rocks!
I have preordered the coming album and still enjoy their first...

Nice. Didn't know they had a first.

Miss the old Nightwish?



Can't wait for this album. I listened to the samples earlier tonight and it's sounds excellent!

Wow. That will be the first Night Wish I buy since. Once. I liked it. It Sounds more like NW to me.

Question. Is that the same singer they got after Tarja left? And are any Of the other members different since then? It looks like a different band to me.
