    So I've been getting into a lot of female vocalists in the generic genre of "Chick Rock" such bands as Letters to Cleo, more popular Killing Heidi and Little Birdy, and old Spiderbait. What other bands can I check out for the genre of chick rock?

    She really made no inclination as to whether she wanted harsh vocals or clean vocals, and since Arch Enemy's vocalist is a girl, I mentioned them.




    I also forgot about The Sounds. They worked with Cobra Starship before.

    The Donna's are great.

    Not really a band, but Dirty Harry is an awesome woman who sings rock music.
    She was in one of Tommy Lee's songs and Cradle Of Filths too.

    All you need is Peaches and Monkey Swallows The Universe.

    Although, Peaches being a female is very debatable.

    Tegan and Sara
    Alanis Morissette
    Avril Lavinge
    The Distillers
    Frou Frou
    No Doubt
    K's Choice (Belgian 90's band)
    Anouk (Dutch singer)
    Kimya Dawson
    Nicole Atkins
    Smoosh (3 sisters playing indie)

    Not all bands, not all good music (i don't think the bands previously named are that good either, no offense), not all Rock chick music, but they're all female singers.

    You might want to check out the whole Riot Grrrl movement if you like Punk.

    Angela's voice could be mistaken for a guy's easily, and i don't really know how to explain this, but I'm fairly sure she wanted bands with female vocalists who have a distinctively female voice.

    But I think we should just wait til Mascara clears it up.

    It doesn't even really matter at this point because I've already recommended them to her, and if she doesn't want to listen to them based on the harsh vocals, that's her prerogative.
