Yep and I even saw them play live (although with a male drummer) . 
 

Masuhiro Goto (ex-Gerard). Then he left, and they got another guy drummer and (guy) guitarist, effectively ending their "all-girl" prog band era. But the line-up of Keiko, Mika and Akiko did reunite recently to play some shows.

You got that right! All-female math rockers Tricot and especially Paranoid Void deserve a mention (and they're in PA no less).

It's also the only country I know that has female metal festivals in which all of the numerous performers, singers AND musicians, are female.
Just to name a few of them: Show-Ya, Aphasia, Aldious, Mary's Blood, Destrose, Yellow Machinegun, Bridear, Gallhammer, Galmet, Lovebites, Cyntia, and the wonderfully named Flagitious Idiosyncrasy in the Dilapidation.
And that's just some of the metal bands, not the rock, punk, pop and other acts. That's pretty cool.
 

That is amazing.

That's another band I'd missed and I just discovered they've been around since 1977!


Yeah, I was quite a fan back in the day. I loved their raw edge. I fancied the drummer too!
 

She was hot! Big smile


The were all fairly easy on the eye to be fair..

I had their first couple of albums, but never got to see them. Bruce Dickinson was quite a fan by all accounts, and I think they supported Maiden in 82 or 83.
 

Yeah, they were. Wink

Though maybe they could get rid of all those bro-musicians backing them and have the fine ladies of BAND MAID take over on the instruments. Talk about kawaii-metal novelty overkill...

None of these really float my boat.

For original material I will take OOIOO all day long.

For cover bands, I really quite enjoy The Iron Maidens.


No all female bands rises to the level of OOIOO. They are queens of the girl band thing if you ask me.

I voted the Shaggs. Something about them really intrigues me.

Bands like the Go-Gos, Bangles, Runaways were cute too. Great pop songs.

Maybe there aren't many Glam Metal fans here. Smile


I wasn't looking for an explanation, just expressing surprise, that's all.

I mean it's strange The Shaggs (Confused) got more respect... Who's trolling this poll? LOLConfused
