Women in Metal

Jinger band with Tatiana Shmayluk as vocalist is crazy good.
Great pick. This is the song that got me into them.

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.

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.

Visions Of Atlantis has two singers, male and female, with the female being the lead. I forget their names, and I know a quick google search would tell me, but I'm having trouble balancing this message and the steering wheel, plus this bowl of soup is REALLY hot.

Gotta mention Spiritbox. Courtney is one of the most celebrated modern metalcore singers.
She absolutely deserves her flowers though, people who can switch from beautiful cleans to hatefully-heavy screams are crazy talented.
Their new album is pretty damn great too, glad they stuck the landing on the sophomore LP.

Unleash the Archers, many good ones but I really like the album Apex and especially Shadow Guide and The Matriarch
A Sound of Thunder, Queen of hell and A Sound of Thunder might be my favorites but many greats imo

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.
Wendy O Williams was and will forever be the queen of anarcho punk rock.
Too bad she decided to leave, but it was her way to go.

Female-fronted stoner/sludge doom.
Saw them open for the almighty YOB back in 2011.
Stevie Floyd is a badass. -

I saw Visions open for Korpiklaani last May and quickly fell in love with them. Illumishade also opened, another band with a female vocalist.

That's awesome, did they play Master The Hurricane? That song makes me speed in parking lots.

In addition to the bands already listed I wanted to add:
Burning Witches is an all female Swiss heavy/power metal band. I found them while listening to Dio covers.
Frozen Crown is a female fronted Italian Power Metal band.
Volturian is a female fronted Italian symphonic metal band.

Recently, Oceans Of Slumber, great combination of beauty and brutality
But also a good bunch of bands : Jinjer, Kittie, ETHS, Crypta, Stolen Babies, anything with Anneke van Giersbergen
I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot since I only thought about vocalists (Gorod, for example, had a beast of a female drummer on their early albums)

In This Moment
I used to love them when I was little, then forgot about them for a decade, then (re)discovered that they've only improved. I've written two acts to their music nowm
