Heh thanks for this thread. I've always thought so, but i've never really heard many female vocals outside of Ayreon. Luckily some of the band name drops in this thread are leading me to investigate something that'll hopefully reap solid rewards. |
 there are many bands that need your attention IMO

Totally agree with Ambriz. Epica are superb - Playing them now actually - Superb.
IMHO - I am not too certain about Marcela Bovio. Yes she was great on Human Equation but has a tendancy to be 'whiney' on a couple or so tracks on Embrace the Storm. Track 3 is her best performance demonstrating her harmony
The female vocal does sound great in the right setting. Don't forget Tarja as well.

Please do yourself a favour and listen to Renaissance. They are astonishing, Annie Haslam is an angel, there's no doubt about that.
I suggest At the Harbour  , phenomenal song!
Also, Mother Russia, Black Flame, The Vultures Fly High, Ocean Gypsy, Scheherazade, and the list goes on...

Seems it's a small mistake to include Ashley Holt in female singers' list.

I don't know this band, but according to Google this is apparently Ashley Holt:

But to be fair, this is also apparently Ashley Holt:

As I know, Ashley Holt of WARHORSE is the same guy who sang in RICK WAKEMAN's "Journey..." and "King Arthur".

Ususally i tend to thing that girl's vocies in rock sound out of place. Great example is Barracuda. Its a great song, and even though her voice is really strong, it would be better asa guy. |
Disagree... Listen to Heart Live in Seattle. Annie does Blackdog better than Mr Plant. Nobody has mentioned The Gathering. If you haven't heard them, better pull your finger out.
