Our house brah, Zydar has a kickass Who-ish (IMO) sounding power pop band going under way, and their stuff is really fun and energetic.
I'd recommend their songs He and Super Nova as their very best stuff.

YYNOT.

Rocky has incredible pipes.  The band started doing Rush covers and is now about to release its third album of original material.  They are ALL excellent at what they do.

What?  No Concrete Blonde?   Only one mention of Heart?  No Anneke van Giersbergen?   C'mon.

Cardamon

If you love Anneke van Giersbergen's work like I do, Floortje Donia is probably the closest I've heard to capturing her essence.  I just love this style of atmospheric, semi-progressive, melancholic rock/metal.

Darzamat

Nera has a really rich alto range, and paired with the melodic black metal instrumentation and harsh vocals creates quite a unique vibe.

Not really a band, but an electronic auteur in the Bjork mold, she's so adept at creating evocative moods and textures.

Just to make everyone aware that the request in this thread was literally from 10 years ago.

JediKnight1969, can you please stop bumping random threads from 10 years ago. If you want to generate some new discussion in these threads, then that's great, please do so, but random bumps just responding as though the threads are recent is confusing for people.

Ariich is a freak, or somehow has more hours in the day than everyone else.

There are no "random bumps". As you can see I'm not making jokes or anything. Just reading old threads and wanting to say something about it. If it's not allowed, OK. I'll stop.

This thread, for example, I would call a pretty random bump. The OP asking for recommendations hasn't even logged in to DTF for 7.5 years. :lol

It's not that it's not allowed, it's that just replying as though it's a current, active thread can be confusing for people. If you want to do that, it would be better to acknowledge that in your post and make it clear that you're bumping an old thread to get some new discussion going (which again is totally fine).

What?  No Concrete Blonde?

For reasons I could never understand, my now-wife/then-girlfriend got me a Concrete Blonde CD for my first birthday after we got together (I don't recall the name...it had a song called Joey).  Blech!  The singer sounded like she was a cross between bored and annoyed that she was being made to sing the songs (like she had somewhere better to be).

Blooodletting; that was their biggest album.   

I see what you mean; she is/was (she's not dead, but doing other things as i understand it) very LA, blase in her attitude.  I listened mainly for James Mankey, who is/was a great guitar player.  Kind of in the Dave Navarro mold sort of.

This thread was started before my favorite girl band WARPAINT!  So many bands have come out like them, it's now a whole movement of dark indie female bands.

The very soul of what was once real music is now lost in a digital quagmire of emotionless sonic madness.

The 2000 PJ Harvey album " Stories From the City " is a must have. The follow up Uh Huh Her is also cool if you like dirty garage rock with female vocals.

Warpaint the band existed before this thread, but the Warpaint topic wasn't started when this was.

No idea why I never chimed in, but I love tons of bands/artists that have female vocals.

Warpaint
Kimbra
Dirt Poor Robins
Bent Knee
Janelle Monae
Tokyo Jihen
Esperanza Spalding
Kacica
Mutyumu
Nexus
Timbre
Amanda Palmer
Pepe Deluxe
iamthemorning
Renaissance

and to add to all-female bands like Warpaint, there's The Warning.

Wow, you've been together since you were zero?!

It's really quite impressive considering I'm three years older than she.
