@thebackwoodschapter35194 жыл бұрын
I see what you're getting at dude but the other two are right, there's a lot of women in metal. Symphonic metal is teeming with female fronted bands. Then there's the obvious, Arch Enemy, Otep, In This Moment (for more of this sound, only a fair bit sexier), Lacuna Coil, the emerging Jinjer, Saviour have a female lead... Just a few places for you to mooch. And while you're at it, UNLEASH THE ARCHERS!

She is probably one of the coolest, most down to Earth people I think I've ever met. Managed to get an autographed poster and a kiss on the cheek that night.
