I dont think throwing muses are very well known. I personally like them alot. Also the solo albums that Kristin Hersh, and Tanya Donelly have put out are all worth a listen too. Also Tanya's band Belly she formed after Throwing muses are worth a listen too.

Flourence and the Machine, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Crystal Castles and Paramore are the only ones that come to mind at the moment.

I love No Doubt. They're simply amazing. But Gwen Steffani's solo was garbage. :x

I also enjoy the Cranberries and the Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs from time-to-time.

I like Paramore.

Portishead

Cocteau Twins

Bikini Kill

Oh gosh I know all that as I've been listening to Kristin's bands and offshoots since they started back in the early '80s. But yeah they're not particularly well known so I just though it was nice to see you and Dhyce mention them.

Also - I just got the Egyptian newsletter and apparently and on June 18th they're playing double feature of Flash Gordon and Battle Beyond the Stars! :D

Yay....only other person to post Cocteau Twins....along with Portishead of course.:P

xaos

diablo swing orchestra

aghora(pretty awesome video discription as well)

aruna doesnt really front the band, but she does sing and that seems to be the requirement many are giving for fronting the band. besides, people should check this band out anyway-portal.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Crystal Castles ( ? ), Portishead, Peaches.

Adding Arch Enemy and Be Your Own Pet.

Neon-Tiger

i like some of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' songs. Ill have to listen to some of these others is a little refreshing to hear a female fronted band once in a while.

Can't believe nobody mentioned Jefferson Airplane. Look up "White Rabbit" by them.

the Birthday Massacre, Diva Destruction, Ayria, Unter Null, Alice in Videoland, the Dreamside, Die form, and Qntal
