Where The Souls WanderWhere The Souls Wander by 13 Winters
Buy used from: $10.55
American newcomers to the Dark metal/Symphonic Black metal genre, very pagan and misty-type, fronted by lead vocalist/bassist Diana Addams who prefers the screeching-screaming Banshee-like howls and melodic moans and wails.
SirensSirens by Astarte
Buy new: $13.98 / Used from: $1.98
I love Astarte. This is an all-female Black Metal band from Greece, with something of a melodic and folk metal influence to the music.
Quod Superius, Sicut InferniusQuod Superius, Sicut Infernius by Astarte
Buy used from: $8.50
One of my favorite black metal albums...this one is pretty solid, with beautiful celtic and folk influences.
DemonizedDemonized by Astarte
Buy new: $21.98 / Used from: $34.86
Astarte's latest release!! Features alot of impressive guest vocalists, too...
Doomsday MachineDoomsday Machine by Arch Enemy
Buy new: $12.99 / Used from: $4.04
Aye, the mighty Arch Enemy fronted by the one-and-only Angela Gossow. Great Melodic Death Metal, and most of Angela's vocals on here have been stunningly doubled, though Michael Ammot and Christopher Ammot's guitars do most of the talking.
Wages of SinWages of Sin by Arch Enemy
Buy new: $16.98 / Used from: $6.00
Angela Gossow's debut as Arch Enemy's new vocalist. Duh.
The Shadows' MadameThe Shadows' Madame by Cadaveria
Buy new: $26.99 / Used from: $7.75
Can't forget the lovely Mistress Cadaveria. This isn't her solo project, the band is just named after her and their style is much more different than Opera IX in that Cadaveria drifts more towards Thrash Metal/Blackened Thrash Metal and what some might call Horror Metal, but nevertheless, Cadaveria maintains her trademark creepy banshee-succubus screeches and screams.
Far Away from ConformityFar Away from Conformity by Cadaveria
Buy used from: $58.42
Cadaveria's amazing second album. Even better than the debut.
Nocturnal MarchNocturnal March
Buy used from: $24.57
Some pretty brutal all-female black metal band!!
Demonic Battle MetalDemonic Battle Metal
Buy used from: $8.99
YES YES YES YES YES. Very nice NSBM/Satanic Black Metal fronted by the great vocalist/guitarist Dana Duffey (aka Satania, ex-Mystic). This is actually one of my all-time favorite albums.
Epic Tales of VengeanceEpic Tales of Vengeance by Dreams of Damnation
Buy new: $11.99 / Used from: $5.89
Another L.A. American newcomer to the Death metal/Thrash metal scene, this album presents the debut of their new vocalist, frontwoman Loana Valencia. Actually, she sounds alot like Arch Enemy's Angel Gossow.
Dawn of GallhammerDawn of Gallhammer by Gallhammer
Buy new: $17.98 / Used from: $9.94
All-female Black Metal band from Japan, with Doom Metal and Crust Punk influences. Sounds alot like Hellhammer.
Strength Power Will PassionStrength Power Will Passion

Sabina Classen = Pioneer female in guttural vox!!! Amazing Blackened Thrash Metal from Germany. Infernal hails \,,/
Chaos Is My NameChaos Is My Name by Khlyst
Buy new: $15.98 / Used from: $4.97
Oh, yeah..and this is some atmospheric Drone Doom/Death Metal studio project from Runhild Gammelsæter, ex-Thorr's Hammer frontwoman. Not very special since its pretty much some atmospheric percussions and drumming and Runhild screaming and grunting her lungs out, but is still some pretty good material.
Facing the ThousandFacing the Thousand by Light This City
Buy new: $13.98 / Used from: $3.52
Not exactly metal..more like moshcore or metalcore...but their broad is quite a screamer. Not bad, actually.
From the Sun, The Rain, The Wind, The SoilFrom the Sun, The Rain, The Wind, The Soil by Mahavatar
Buy new: $51.99 / Used from: $34.48
Some harsh, progressive thrash-industrial metal, hard to classify but excellent! Great vox, too!
Go With the NoGo With the No
Buy new: $29.99 / Used from: $1.75
Get this one, too!!!
Mourning In The Winter SolsticeMourning In The Winter Solstice by Mythic
Buy used from: $131.49
The first ever all-female Extreme Metal band. Death-Doom Metal, to be exact. This was Dana Duffey's (Demonic Christ) first band, and they broke up shortly after she left to Demonic Christ.
The Black Opera: Symphoniae Mysteriorum in Lauden TenebrarumThe Black Opera: Symphoniae Mysteriorum in Lauden Tenebrarum by Opera IX
Buy new: $15.98 / Used from: $3.05
Right, and heres the last Opera IX album to feature ex-frontwoman Cadaveria on vocals, and is undoubtly their best album. Amazing album, great Occult Symphonic Black Metal from Italy, you need to also make sure to check out their previous albums before this one, Sacro Culto and Call of the Wood.
Creative KillingsCreative Killings by Sinister
Buy used from: $24.99
Dutch Death metal band, previously fronted by Miss Rachel Heyzer. If you think Angela Gossow is crazy, get a load of this.
Savage or GraceSavage or Grace by Sinister
Buy used from: $2.15
Another excellent release featuring Rachel...
DommedagsnattDommedagsnatt by Thorr's Hammer
Buy new: $13.98 / Used from: $9.93
Oh god...you need to listen to this EP featuring the vocal talents of Norwegian-born Runhild Gammelsæter. All the other extream female vocalists sound like frightned lab mice next her. It's Doom/Death Metal, by the way.
Memories Of A Dying WhoreMemories Of A Dying Whore by Wykked Wytch
Buy new: $12.99 / Used from: $5.92
Frontwoman Ipek could easily give Dani Filth a run for his money. And a damn right scare, too.
Awakening: Females in Extreme MusicAwakening: Females in Extreme Music by Various Artists
Buy new: $13.98 / Used from: $2.00
Any fan of female-fronted extreme metal needs this album. Great compilation, features tracks from some of the first female extream vocalists in the business, like Opera IX, Demonic Christ, Thorr's Hammer, and the hard-to-find no-longer-active ones like Ebonsight, Deathwitch, and November Grief.
