Another all female band is the American based multi national metalcore group Conquer Divide. I would recommend their song Atonement and their collaboration with the German electronicore / metalcore band Electric Callboy: Fckboi (which funny enough is not metalcore at all but more pop-punk). The actress playing the evil countess is Jenny Diehl, co-founder & co-operator of Dream Film Factory, the company which made this music video. She is also dancer / stage & video preformer for the humorous German medieval metal group Feuerschwanz and harpist of the multi national symphonic metal band The Dark Side Of The Moon. The latter one consists of Swiss vocalist Melissa Bonny (main band is Ad Infintum [symphonic metal]), guitarist Hans Platz (also from Feuerschwanz), Danish drummer Morten Lowe Sorensen (from Amaranthe [melodic death metal, electronicore]) and of course Jenny on the harp. They mainly do cover songs from movies, tv-shows and video games like Jenny of Oldstones (from Game of Thrones), May It Be (from Lord of the Rings) and Double Trouble (from Harry Potter).
Burning Witches tend to do themed albums. At least loosely anyway. The 2nd album was about the Witchcraft Trials. The 3rd album was about Devil stuff. The 4th album was about Norse mythology, and this new 5th album coming out in May is about Horror elements.
The Bathory legend has long been influential in Heavy Metal music - Venom have the classic "Countess Bathory", Bathory took their name from the countess's married name and have a song about her in "Woman of Dark Desires", and Cradle of Filth released their meisterwerk "Cruelty and the Beast", as a concept album framed around her legend (and featured actress Ingrid Pitt playing the role of the Elder Countess - she played Bathory in the Hammer Horror film "Countess Dracula"). I'm not sure if Burning Witches is doing a full concept here as they did with their previous album, the Viking myth themed "The Witch of the North", but they will certainly put their own stamp on it.
The Elizabeth Bathory tale is super interesting. Either a prolific female serial killer across a 20 year reign of terror assisted by servants; or a powerful widow victimised by a political/religious conspiracy to rob her of land and power. Burning Witches are also ace. They explore Witchcraft in a few themes: tongue-in-cheek pop culture (We Eat Your Children), feminist revision of the lives of the accused (Burning Witches, Hexenhammer) and different ways in which someone might interact with Witchcraft, from the voluntary (Circle of Five, Dance with the Devil) to the unwitting (Dark Companion, Black Magic)
And with regard to the revisionist thread, special mention also to All Witches Burn by Pretty Reckless and a story told in a few songs by Blackbriar: Lilith Begone (woman condemned for demanding equality) Confess (her rigged trail) Weakness and Lust (her mocking confession to all accusations) I'd Rather Burn (her curse to her executioners on the way to be burned at the stake)
There are actually a bunch of lady bands that are really good and still active, such as: NEMOPHILA, Aldious, HANABIE., FATE GEAR, LOVEBITES, BAND-MAID, BRIDEAR, Toranoko Rammy, Otoboke Beaver, Gacharic Spin, TRiDENT, Little Lilith, THE TOMBOYS, SHOW-YA, exist†trace, RAISE A SUILEN, Scandal, Shonen Knife, Rolling Quartz, Plush, Girlschool, Kittie, The Warning, L7, Voice of Baceprot, Bad Cop/Bad Cop, Vixen, THUNDERMOTHER , CRYPTA, NERVOSA
Indeed. For info, Crypta has former Burning Witches guitarist Sonia Anubis, who also plays in hair metal revival band Cobra Spell (not all female). Plush and Thundermother do great traditional metal style music. There is also Thunderpussy - get past the name and songs of theirs like Velvet Noose are amazing. Some names above I'm less familiar with, but there are also a set of Japanese all girl acts (Band Maid, Nemophila, Lovebites) along with Baby Metal (technically the music is played by a male house band - the Kami Band - but the instruments are not centre stage)
I like it, do you also listen to black / thrash metal? Then I recommend the band Desaster or Nocturnal. I think they might like the band Rammstein.💥👍🤘👌 Desaster - Learn To Love The Void (OFFIZIELLES VIDEO), NOCTURNAL - Rising Demons (Offizielles Video), Rammstein: Paris - Du Hast (Offizielles Video)

I will definitely check out that suggestion! I’m gradually making my way toward suggested videos and will get to these as soon as I can.
For more of that raspy growl done subtly and really well, try Sea of Lies from Burning Witches

Very cool! Thank you for sharing :)
You must listen to their song's "Black Widow, Hexenhammer str8🔥🔥🔥
Also those two songs are sung by the bands first singer "Seriana"

Mary's Blood is also a good one. They're another Japanese one. They're cross between LoveBites and Band-Maid.
@@WhatDayIsItTrumpDay Unfortunately they aren't active anymore

I don’t usually but I am open to checking out new music :)
@@LunaAltheaMystique The band Rammstein is also harmless but very good👍
