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.

  • Coven
  • Girlschool
  • Early Bolt Thrower
  • Boris
  • Corrupted had an incredible female singer some years ago

Just off the top of my head, probably forgot a lot of great bands.

Daedric.

The coop with Dal Av is amazing!

Dark Castle - Surrender to All Life Beyond Form

Female-fronted stoner/sludge doom.

Saw them open for the almighty YOB back in 2011. Stevie Floyd is a badass.

I've heard of Dark Castle as Stevie Floyd is the now ex-wife of Jef Whitehead who's my favorite musician period. I haven't actually listened to any of their stuff though, maybe I should give them a try?

Do it, if you like sludgey riffing.

Destiny Potato

Can't believe nobody mentioned Nuclear Death. One of the sickest most primitively brutal Death Metal bands. In the same league with Autopsy, in my book. Mental artwork too.

I saw the "Women in Metal" title and thought this would be a thread about women in trade jobs (i.e. metalworking).
