I know I’m going to catch a little hell for them lol.
But fuck me, Courtney with her ethereal clean vocals and bestial growls is a force. Thing is, it takes one fucking great band to hold up to a voice like that.
This is the first song I heard of theirs, though it was The one take version rather than the album/video version.
most of the bands doing that seem like a gimmick rather than something that they really have passion for
Huh, curious what these look like.
The only female-singer bands I’m aware of are this, Jinjer, Arch Enemy, Nightwish and related Dutch bands (Epica etc) and that’s about it.
Arch Enemy are the only one that doesn’t work for me.
Butcher Babies, Infected Rain, Nemophila, Crypta.
That’s just from the top of my head.
I hope you can enjoy some of it. :)
