    In the realm of epic/symphonic metal you probably can't throw a stone without hitting an amazing female vocalist. Simone Simons from Epica, Nightwish's Floor Jansen, Sharon den Adel (Within Temptation), and Zora Cock for Blackbrariar are the first that come to mind.

    For folk metal there's Eluveitie with two members and Folkstone with I think one.

    Very worth mentioning is Alyssa and her harsh vocals, from Arch Enemy.

    While she's not been a member in a long while, I have to mention Vibeke Stene as the vocalist from Tristania, maybe my all time favorite.

    For all female bands there's Girlschool, and you could say Babymetal, even if they have more members playing with them since I don't know how permanent they are.

    Others that I know of but haven't really listened much by would be Jinjer and Halestorm.

    That's what I can think of off the top of my head, but there's so much more.

        Angela Gossow was a beast, glad they found a very suitable replacement when she left.

          Inspired by this post, I wanted to make a post asking about your favorite metal bands with women in them and maybe your favorite release from them too.

          For me, that'd be Crypta. They're a Brazilian Death Metal band made up of only women. Their Shades of Sorrow album is absolutely incredible with some really mean vocals and great riffing.

          i discovered Brutus a few weeks ago. She is the Lead-singer and plays the drums simultaneously. The power in her voice while smashing the drums... incredible. I was blown away when I saw a Video of her performance and realized it.
          What Have We Done with The Atomic Orchestra is probably my favorite.

            Imaginaerum is a fun album, Scaretale and the first half of Song of Myself are great.

                  Arch Enemy fucking rocks. Angela and Alyssa are both badass and are probably my first time seeing a woman do harsh vocals like that.

                    I’d like to recommend the 2 plasmatics albums; “Coup d’Eta” and “Maggots: the record”.

                    Maybe not exactly what people are here for but i’d be remiss if I didn’t mention these amazingly heavy albums.

                            The Breeders kicked fucking ass - Kim Deal went on to form the Pixies but her first project is absolutely worth a listen as well.

                              Lots of great bands here already, and some new to me! One of my favorites I haven't seen here is Spiritbox... Courtney Laplante reminds me of Angela Gossow and Tatiana Shmayluk, she has the nice clean vocals as well as the super gutteral growl.

                                Gotta mention Spiritbox. Courtney is one of the most celebrated modern metalcore singers.

                                        Just to name a handful off the top of my head.

                                          In the realm of epic/symphonic metal you probably can't throw a stone without hitting an amazing female vocalist. Simone Simons from Epica, Nightwish's Floor Jansen, Sharon den Adel (Within Temptation), and Zora Cock for Blackbrariar are the first that come to mind.

                                          For folk metal there's Eluveitie with two members and Folkstone with I think one.

                                          Very worth mentioning is Alyssa and her harsh vocals, from Arch Enemy.

                                          While she's not been a member in a long while, I have to mention Vibeke Stene as the vocalist from Tristania, maybe my all time favorite.

                                          For all female bands there's Girlschool, and you could say Babymetal, even if they have more members playing with them since I don't know how permanent they are.

                                          Others that I know of but haven't really listened much by would be Jinjer and Halestorm.

                                          That's what I can think of off the top of my head, but there's so much more.

                                          I'd add Adrienne Cowan from Seven Spires and Melissa Bonny from Ad Infinitum to that list. But, as you said, in symphonic metal you'd be hard pressed to find a band without an amazing female vocalist.
