  • Here's our top 10 list of who we think are the best female vocalists in Heavy Metal bands. We have not included Lizzy Hale (Halestorm) and Amy Lee (Evanescence) because Halestorm is torn between Rock & Metal genre and Evanescence is Gothic Rock. Also we wanted to include Maria Brink (In The Moment) on our list but almost all their materials were copyrighted. Comment down below if you think we have missed someone in the list.

    Saw Nightwish in LA recently and the band with Floor is truly amazing. In my 70 years it had to be one of the best concerts i'd ever seen and heard.
    This women along with an incredible singing ability has a remarkable stage presence. I'm still buzzing.

    Floor at No1 is a given..
    However, not a single nod to Fabienne Erni from Eluviete or Masha from Arkona. If you want mixed scream/ clean vocalists , Masha is every bit the equal to Alyssa or titanja . Fabi is incredible as well as a pure singer.

    Good list with solid choices. It's very difficult to narrow things down to just 10, as there are a whole load more I can think of that are also phenomenal vocalists
    I'd also give an honourable mention to Clementine Delauney (featured on an album with Serenity, and now is the female vocalist for Visions of Atlantis). Whilst her body of work might not be as extensive, she is a fantastic singer, every bit as good (if not as well known) as many of the names on this list, and is absolutely epic live

It's probably hard for some people to believe that she can pull those notes off live, but she does and does it incredibly well. She would land in my top five for sure. Right up there with the ladies from Nightwish all three of them, because whether you like or hate Anette you cannot deny the contribution she made to the band. Their two best selling albums have her fronting the band.

      @@Brandonmtlhd i agree with you that not all goth bands are metal. But you can find goth bands tha play thrash, or even death metal. gothic rock, hard rock, as you mention, or even alternative, should be the genre where you "musically" classify The Cure (although they made pretty different albums, hard to classify, they even have some punk and post-punk stuff). And oh, yes, Evanescence has more than one Nu metal song. Their second album is almost entirely nu Metal, and their 2019(ish) album is some kind of symphonic, so yeah, they are ALSO (not exclusively) a metal band.

I don‘t know many of the other singers except Doro. oime interesting voices but far away from the two Nightwish power ladies. Well done!
    Floor was part of the recent „Sing my song“ show in Germany (also known as the „Exchange concert“ internationally IIRC) and she was doing so well with any song she delivered. As part of that group and in real life she seems to be such a shy, cautious and reliable person. This makes it even more impressive to see what a giant she is on stage.
