In modern rock music it’s often the female artists who provide that unique sound and style of which has never been heard before. Some fantastic songstresses have graced the musical airwaves over the decades and it’s only fitting that they be given the credit they so often deserve but never receive.

These women have a certain nouse that fits their often outrageous yet stunning looks and personality, not to mention a fantastic, unique singing voice that they have evolved into the metal rock genre.
