So you think metal and rock music are all about growling males with tattoos and piercings too many for you to count? You can think again. The hardcore music scene has long been invaded by females - most held the beauty like those of the goddesses that their songs are talking about. Wait a minute, that sounds cheesy! No matter. These chicks can sing damn well too!
Check out the photos and videos listed down, if you doubt me. But, if you get addicted to them, don't say I didn't warn you.
1. Simone Simons - Epica
2. Sharon den Adel - Within Temptation
3. Angela Gossow - Arch Enemy
4. Christina Scabbia - Lacuna Coil
5. Tarja Turunen - (formerly) Nightwish
6. Charlotte Wessels - Delain
7. Anneke Van Giersbergen - The Gathering
`
9. Maria Brink - In This Moment
10. Amy Lee - Evanescence
There you go. Aren't these ladies lovely? Makes you want to search for other images or look up videos on YouTube, right? Rocked your world, didn't they? :D
Got some more names you want to be included in the list? Comment away! Maybe we'll do a Part 2. But one thing's for sure, I'll be doing a post about metal chicks in instruments - hopefully in the near future. Meanwhile, I hope you enjoyed this one.
#s 2, 4, and 8 - With the risk of sounding chauvinistic, I'd most certainly TAP those.
ReplyDeleteGreat voices, too. :D
TAP being the operative word! Haha! Most fitting, I'd say! :P

ReplyDeleteHi there The Siren! Thanks for your comment. But this list is actually in no particular order. All of them are beautiful IMO. And I just love Tarja so I may be bias. :D
