Added. Except Decemberists. I know they're on here and i own most of their albums but WHY are they considered progressive? I don't find them to be at all. What am i missing? Thanks for suggestions!

Wow! I didn't know JT had female behind the scenes. Of course i don't know half of the musicians even though i love the music! She was definately "IN" the band, so bravo! Great find, matie!


She was still known as David Palmer (her birth name) when she was part of JT. Her name change came much later - in 1998, according to Wikipedia.

Let's also add the estimable female members of Wapassou:

Karin Nickerl / vocals, acoustic guitar
Eurydice / vocals
Veronique Nickerl / vocals

Nobody really seems to give a damn about Wapassou Cry but I think they were great.

Maybe people don't like them because the name sounds like WHOP A SOW! LOL
Anyways, my list loves them, thanks :)

You mean a transexual? I'm not sure that counts. I mean i have friends who are trans but when it comes down to it, one cannot change their chromosomes no matter how much snippy snippy one makes. What does everyone else thing about this? To me trans is a third category. No disrespect or anything but some sort of middle ground. Mostly because she was still influenced by the male hormones in development, something a person can never divorce from totally.

Great suggestion, but that's more of a guest appearance. Three songs on one album isn't enough for me on this one.

My love for all-female Japanese bands knows no bounds, so here's a few:

Paranoid Void: Meguri (vocals, guitar), Yu-Ki (bass, backing vocals), Mipow (drums, backing vocals)
Very progressive, jazzy math rock...not on the archives yet, someday I'll submit them (that team has enough to deal with I think).

Tricot: Ikkyu Nakajima (vocals, guitar), Kida Motifo (guitar, backing vocals), Hiromi Hirohiro (bass, backing vocals), Yusuke Yoshida (drums)
Math rock, and on the archives! A little more indie than Paranoid Void, but still cool and oddball.

Angel'in Heavy Syrup: Mine Nakao (guitar, vocals), Mineko Itakura (bass, vocals), Fusao Toda (guitar), Tomoko Takahara (drums, flute), Mandrake Yoko (drums), Naoko Otani (drums)
Didn't check if you already had this gang on yet...trippy, shoegazy psychedelic prog rock.

Great finds! Japanese women are some of the most daring and bold on the scene. Love their feistiness! All great and added. Paranoid Void definately belongs on this site!

Another Belgian band, the RIO Aranis, if you think applicable (it would be to me), has various female members including: Linde de Groof (violin), Liesbeth Lambrecht (violin), Marjolein Cools (accordion), Axelle Kennes (piano) and Jana Arns (flute).

I missed Cos and never would've thought of Aranis but perfectly acceptable. Both added. Thanks!

I was being a bit of a silly puppy myself with that suggestion, but on the other hand, I figured it was a subject worth breaching, as apparently she did believe that she should have been born a woman.

Oh, I hear you there! Hell, arguably my current favorite guitarist is Hanako from Octaviagrace, but unfortunately their style is probably just a little too power metal for "prog" standards (man is she great though).

Here's a couple of more individual Japanese wunderkinds that need serious consideration though:

Starless: Yoshiko Miyamoto (vocals)
Named after the KC album, their Silver Wings album is one of the best Japanese heavy prog albums of the '80s. Seriously classic stuff.

Although you might kick yourself for not catching this one considering their regal status in the E/T prog metal scene...
Sigh: Dr. Mikannibal (alto saxophone, vocals)

aah Japanese women proggers...

@ silly puppy:  No idea about Decemberists! LOL Just mentioned it because it's listed here and because it used to be very popular among the forum members at one point of time.
