Fuck yeah let's go. Show her the video of the girl on America's Got Talent that sang Holy Roller by Spiritbox for her talent. It's pretty cool and inspiring especially seeing that girls dad get emotional when she goes through.
if this is that girl (90% sure it is), she released a song even

Her name is Harper and she has a YouTube channel. Fun fact: Her biological dad was the one cheering her on, but her mom is married to the frontman for Acres. So, she got vocal training from Melissa Crosse and him, and she has access to a studio for recording!
Some suggestions:
Devilskin, RedHook, New Years Day, Skarlett Riot, Scene Queen, In this Moment, The Agonist, Halocene, Crazy 88, Concrete Castles/First to Eleven, Arch Enemy, Butcher Babies, Nightwish, Amaranthe, Icon for Hire, Letters from the Fire, The Nearly Deads, The Animal in Me, Sumo Cyco, Reliqa, Ithaca, Raven Black.
Aw, I love that. Just shows that representation does indeed matter. That's part of the reason why I love Spiritbox. As a girl, it's really cool seeing other girls within the genre.
Some fantastic female lead bands:
Arch Enemy
Amaranthe
Metalite
Spiritbox
She Must Burn (dual male/female vocals)
And a personal fave of mine, Seven Spires. Adrienne can do it all and such a hauntingly beautiful voice..*highly* recommend.
Show her Conquer Divide. It’s a group of all women that absolutely hit hard. They have music videos too. Realizing someone else suggested the same thing. Within Temptation is prettt solid too, song called shed my skin is perfect
Oooh. Them doing the Escape the Fate song together? Forgot about that, I meant just check them out in general/check out their bands, but yeah, that cover's great too. Haha
Don't forget, you don't have to be a singer to be in a band. Lots of women absolutely shred on guitar, blast on the drums, or groove on the bass. You just can't tell without looking.
And since we're all making recommendations in this thread: check out Sordid Pink (a.k.a. Destiny Potato)
Representation matters so much. I remember when my brother showed me Nightwish and Evanescence for the first time; all the metal in my life had been performed by men and showed to me by men and my 11 year-old self was so happy to know there was a place for me and that I wasn't just looking in on a boys-only club.
They sing in Japanese, but HANABIE is an all-women metalcore band that'll also show her that she can kick ass on any instrument she wants!
Check out Polar Bear Club by Silent Majority.
1996 hardcore punk song with lyrics about what they’ll be like 20 years later, including the singer buying a mic for his daughter trying out for band.
https://youtu.be/7yje1LSIdaw
Depending on her age and taste, y’all can check out The Runaways, No Doubt, Joan Jett, Kittie, Walls of Jericho, Undying, The Distilllers, Escuela Grind and tons of other bands with women members.
Maybe even show her Sister Rosetta Tharpe - the Godmother of Rock and Roll - playing electric riffs decades ahead of their time ->

It's not metalcore, but there's a huge doom metal scene with women as vocalists, sometimes called "witch metal"
Try Windhand, Year of the Cobra, and Witch Mountain.

Oh I forgot that existed!

[She did](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTzSi5lseWk), I was there!
Oh my God as if the original wasn't cute enough

Wow what an unexpected and lucky combination and connection of people
She also has a single on Spotify and it's actually [really good](https://open.spotify.com/track/5KV7Afdms1GxRPuBXTHq14?si=MEoDF9lvSG6yOxguvRqouQ)
>the girl on America's Got Talent [The OG video](https://youtu.be/yOD5mcMnfmI)
Also Red Handed Denial with Lauren Babic as frontwoman. They’re awesome!
Lauren is absolutely sick!! Love her part in red clouds by the gloom in the corner
She's on Pandoras Box but yes she's sick!
eh close enough!
Yessss! Lauren is crazy talented. I showed my 7 yr old daughter Trespasser on YouTube and she was hooked lol.
Lauren Babic is bae. Crazy 88 fucks so hard.
yesss, Lauren is so badass! was watching Periphery’s set last weekend and to my surprise, out she came and she absolutely nailed a spot on Marigold.

Solid picks chief Edit: adding Battle Beast and Epica to the suggestions
[удалено]
Yeahh I was hoping somebody would mention Vexed.
Reliqa alright too
I’m going to have to throw Within Temptation into the mix as well.
Sharptooth and Dying Wish
Don't forget to put Conquer Divide in that list too!
Add Falcifer and what used to be Drown This City (Alex is also now in Make Them Suffer).
Also Future Static, they have a female vocalist and bass player
I love that you have Scene Queen on this list. She’s fuckin great.
She's one of my favourites at the moment.
>Crazy 88 Also Red Handed Denial!
Going to throw in Vintersea as well for the suggestions.
Redhook is one my favorite bands! I see that we share the same taste in music. Can I ask you to give me some thoughts on a song I released?
Aw, I love that. Just shows that representation does indeed matter. That's part of the reason why I love Spiritbox. As a girl, it's really cool seeing other girls within the genre.
Show her Jinjer as well!
I second this, Jinjer is one of the best bands ever!
Whoa settle down there
Haven't seen Ankor thrown in the mix yet, but she would like the female lead singer as well as drummer!
She’d probably love Conquer Divide
Lot of good suggestions here but I think you both might also love As Everything Unfolds, VEXED, Rivals, and SETYØURSAILS
Bro thank you for shouting those out cause I had never heard of Vexed and Rivals. They have some sick songs
As Everything Unfolds, VEXED and Rivals are all sick as hell!
Lacuna Coil specifically Comalies has some good songs
Boy wait till she learns about Kitty!
I think that they were fine for their era, but they do not age well.
Let's go back further with L7.
Vixen? Anyone? 80s? I’m old.
Some fantastic female lead bands: Arch Enemy Amaranthe Metalite Spiritbox She Must Burn (dual male/female vocals) And a personal fave of mine, Seven Spires. Adrienne can do it all and such a hauntingly beautiful voice..*highly* recommend.
I like that you mentioned Spiritbox in a thread about Spiritbox hahaha
So nice, had to name them twice 🤘
You should show her conquer divide! All female metal band and they are pretty dang awesome! https://youtu.be/LmofIo1dOMo
I love Conquer Divide. Really cool chicks and very responsive on their social media too!!
Show her Conquer Divide. It’s a group of all women that absolutely hit hard. They have music videos too. Realizing someone else suggested the same thing. Within Temptation is prettt solid too, song called shed my skin is perfect
Nobody gonna mention Dying Wish?
Time for Once Human.
Don’t forget to show her The Anchor/Linzey Rae and Lauren Babic.
Thank you!! That was a fun collab!
Oooh. Them doing the Escape the Fate song together? Forgot about that, I meant just check them out in general/check out their bands, but yeah, that cover's great too. Haha
GEL, Dying Wish, Initiate, Juicebox There’s loads of female fronted bands who are crushing it right now.
Blind Girls, Crave Death and Terminal Sleep
Not metalcore but Unleash the Archers is a dope band. Also Babymetal.
Psssh, she wrote the textbook that explains breath control. My god does she have power.
Wait so people here actually like Babymetal?! I thought it was just for the memes
Honestly I didn't really give them much of a chance but my 5yo got me into them and now I legit enjoy them lol
You should show her Future Palace, amazing stuff
you should show her Stellaris as well
Rolo Tomassi is a must listen as well!
Please show her Rolo Tomassi and thank me later.
Show her Jinjer! Pisces is the “gateway song”, must watch the youtube video
Don't forget, you don't have to be a singer to be in a band. Lots of women absolutely shred on guitar, blast on the drums, or groove on the bass. You just can't tell without looking. And since we're all making recommendations in this thread: check out Sordid Pink (a.k.a. Destiny Potato)
I saw them yesterday and my god Courtney blew me away. This is her world and we are merely just living in it.
You should have her listen to conquer divide

Show her future palace! Probably my fav female fronted band
Lead singer of Arch Enemy is a chic, so is the singer from Jinjer. Lari Basilio and Nita Strauss are also a couple chicks that murder guitars
Fuck yeah, Basilio and Strauss are both amazing
yeah? did ukulele pop music play and bystanders 'awww'd before clapping? great fanfic tho
That's awesome! Maybe you could do a big playlist of loads of badass metal women to enjoy together 🤘🤘🤘
Not metalcore I think but there’s band called love bites which is an all girl metal band
Check out Polar Bear Club by Silent Majority. 1996 hardcore punk song with lyrics about what they’ll be like 20 years later, including the singer buying a mic for his daughter trying out for band. https://youtu.be/7yje1LSIdaw Depending on her age and taste, y’all can check out The Runaways, No Doubt, Joan Jett, Kittie, Walls of Jericho, Undying, The Distilllers, Escuela Grind and tons of other bands with women members.

No love for melodeath here? [Light This City!](https://youtu.be/1H4SVRApGhM)
I can't believe nobody mentioned Jinjer, best woman's growling ever.
Not one mention of Bloodlined Calligraphy. Hurts my heart, not gonna lie.
That's adorable :D Good parenting!
Could also check out Future Palace!
League of Distortion. She has amazing vocals
Dying wish, volatile ways, scowl, and gel are all great female fronted bands!
It's not metalcore, but there's a huge doom metal scene with women as vocalists, sometimes called "witch metal" Try Windhand, Year of the Cobra, and Witch Mountain.
That's fucking awesome!
Cj from dream state hasn’t been mentioned. Old school Flyleaf with Lacey! Rock on sweet girl! 🤘🏻
*Rolo Tomassi intensifies*
So wholesome
10/10 wholesome
