I love rock bands with women on the vocals. I like Dead Sara, The Pretty Reckless, Halestorm, The Beaches, The Warning, In This Moment, Metric, The Interrupters, Larkin Poe. Lots more but that’s a good sample.
What other bands/artists might I like?
Edit: thank you everyone for the recommendations! I have so much new stuff to listen to!
Amyl & the sniffers is my fav
Hell yeah, good recommendation! I fucking love them.
Really surprised no one mentioned The Distillers Some more:
Anything Kristine Hersh has touched, especially 50 FOOT WAVE
You might enjoy Devilskin and Gin Wigmore.
surprised no one recommended Guano Apes yet
I really like more melodic stuff, and my favorites are Ad Infinitum, Dark side of the Moon, Enemy Inside, Beyond the Black, Scarlet Dorn
I would like to ask a similar question:
I very much like the “the beauty and the beast” - styled metal. That’s at least what I read online sometime what it’s called.
The mix of a male voice growling and a female voice singing melodic kinda does it for me, but so far I had very little luck finding stuff that fits, actually just a few songs.
Any recommendations?
A lot of symphonic metal bands are like that. On the top of my head, you could check out Nightwish, Within Temptation, Epica and Unleash the Archers.
Tristania - World of Glass, and if you like that check out the two albums before it as well.
Their first two albums are my favorites, just amazing music.
There are a few songs around with Max Cavalera (Sepultura, Soulfly) and Maria Brink (In This Moment). Not at home at the moment, can’t check my collection, but if you can find them, they’re probably the sort of thing you like.
Theatre of Tragedy fits that style. They are older, but worth checking out.
Just their early stuff - self-titled debut, Velvet Darkness They Fear, A Rose for the Dead, Aegis. The stuff afterwards isn’t bad, but it’s not the same genre.
I’m on a Tulip binge right now.
Her voice is amazing. Give a few songs a listen and you’ll be hooked!
Midnight in the Desert remastered, Bird set free and Dimensional Rift unplugged are great
Bad cop bad cop

You might like some of the output of Elysian Fields (Jennifer Charles, Oren Bloedow). Maybe in particular their earlier stuff, like their Bleed Your Cedar (1996) album:

They’ve made many a fantastic albums though, worth checking out.
I saw them several times live in the early-mid aughts. They’re great!
Never managed to catch them playing live, so I’m well jealous!
Halocene, she does a bunch of covers of old rock songs from around the early 2000s. It’s like fresh nostalgia straight into my ears. Her original stuff is also pretty good :)
