| I'd rather hear a female vocalist like Doro or Veronica Freeman (Benedictum) over some WOOOOARRRRGH'in dude _________________ "If you're a false, don't entry, because you'll be burned and died!"

| I used to love female fronted metal bands but now I'm more picky. I need the vocalist to have something unique about her voice. Which is one of the main reasons I don't like Nightwish anymore. Tarja's operatic soprano was unique; without her they just sound like a progmetal version of Evanescence. _________________ "The cat is the most ruthless, most terrifying of animals." - Spock in the "Catspaw" episode of ToS Season 2.

| For the most part I cant get into them.Something about a female singer just kills the whole sound for me.There are exceptions however,one would be Doro.Also the chick from Smashed Gladys.She sounds gritty enough to fit the sound. | |

| Yeah, it's a case by case. I once listened to an album by a female fronted band called "benediction" (am i correct?) They did an outstanding cover of accept's balls to the wall...But i don't recall the album's title. | |

| I like some, but I'm not a fan of the whole goth/opera thing that bands like Nightwish and Lacuna Coil are doing. I do like Helion, Warlock, etc. _________________ ULTIMATUM - TOO METAL FOR WIKIPEDIA!

| Not really a fan. There are a few exceptions, but not really my thing. Especially the goth/opera stuff. But then again, I wouldn't care for the goth/opera stuff if it's a dude singing either. I like Benedictum, even though Spec swears the lead singer is a she-male. I don't have the release yet, but there is a new-ish band out there that I really like, Serpent Cult, that has a chick singer too. There might be a few more, but those 2 came to mind right away. _________________ I used to be with it, but then they changed what "it" was.

Yeah, I just don't understand the idea of getting a female vocalist...and then have her do the whole death metal thing...what's the point? |

| Wow, Spec I am impressed , I didnot realize you are Immortal fan. Personally I like Arch Enemy's music, but even if I didn't, I would rather watch them on stage, Angela is a nice piece of eye candy. | |

| Also, MC turned me onto a band called Octavia Sperati that has a really good vocalist, it's more "goth edged" type stuff but she sings in a more straight ahead, less operatic style than most of these type of groups. |

| Females dont bother me, if there is hooks and she can sing then it works for me. I really dig bands like Nightwish, Echos of Eternity, Sinergy, and Therion. | |
