    Maybe that’s just in accordance with the normal style of metal music, where male vocals are expected / more appropriate. I’m surprised to learn that there are female metal singers at all.

      Lacuna Coil, Otep, and Arch Enemy immediately come to mind, but you are correct - feminine representation is a small minority in metal.

        Light this city, Ignea, Arkona, even Battle Beast. There are plenty female vocalists with a lot of catchy songs.

          Nervosa is my favorite all-women band of all time. Super tight thrash/melodeath from Brazil.
