I find CL quite boring. Always the same teams in the play-offs and the always the same teams winning. Europa League and Conference League are way more interesting with a bigger variety of teams reaching far in the tournaments.
@Nejde - CL is an interesting league amalgamation of all elite teams from different leagues competing for being the best euro football club in the world. I'm watching since my adolescent.
They're not the typical stars we all used to know before,I really wanted to add some of very underrated but somewhat impressive vocalists. Any suggestion is welcomed,so let me know if you really know more.This is my first attempt of making a list, erm salute to these awesome ladies. Some of them are really inspirational.
Edit: I don't really want to mention every female passing by the metal neighborhood
EDIT 2: I changed the title and criteria, as the list is getting longer I avoid using any exact digit in the title, this list may exceed that digit anyway.So no more restrictions to any of them.
It's up to you of course. But you could change the ranking so Obscure Sphinx's vocalist is at #2 and not #7. I'm probably the only one who notices such things and cares about it though, hahaha.

Thanks for this list! I am looking for more female fronted bands to get into and this is a great place to look! Only heard Sinergy and Unexpect from this list

DAMN ! Why did I miss this ! I must have already added it, actually I think it was on the list before : or I have heard it before, nevertheless I thank ya !
Edit : oh wait it's right there on 17th place Like I said it sounded so familiar, I knew I have heard it before

I see it now. I think I missed it since it never showed that it was on the website (which it is now)
I haven't heard of it ever I check it out asap, give me sometime and thanks for the suggestion also apologies for late reply
Definitely do so. The vocalist can do crazy screams and clean vocals. She's really essential for this list I'd say. Not to mention that album is brilliant.

Finally I gave Stolen Babies a listen but Erik I have mixed feelings about this vocalist

Really? To me she's great. Love her vocals, both the cleans and harsh ones. Have you listened to the entire album? The first track isn't a good example of her vocals I'd say.
A bit weird to see Fuck the Facts vocalist over Sabina Classen or Onielar. Would have added Masha Scream (even if you don't like Arkona its hard to deny her talent, imo. Brilliant and unique cleans, great growls, great stage presence. To me one of the more unique personalities in her genre) there too.

Why it's weird ?
I myself think that yeah Mascha is quite talented and impressive but I wouldn't her name to this list as she's very known, I prefer that less known vocalists to be here
I appreciate the recognition of Cerebral Bore, Znowhite, Cripper, Battle Beast, Abnormality, and A Sound of Thunder for their respective vocalists. I saw/met A Sound of Thunder shortly after the release of their debut and Nina Osegueda, for one, continues to grow stronger and stronger. I also appreciate the conspicuous absence of certain terribly-overrated vocalists who tend to assume the entire spotlight whenever someone breathes a word about "female metal singers." Noora Louhimo blasts the socks off Angela Gossow any day.
I've always had a soft spot for Anna Murphy's voice (Eluveitie, Lethe, Nucleus Torn), unusually straightforward and crisp as it is. I suppose she ill-fits this list in a number of ways. Although she does sing in a metal band, she still isn't exactly a "metal singer" per se, and both she and Eluveitie are fairly popular anyway, I'd wager. On top of that, she doesn't strike me as being able to match many of these singers for power or presence. I would say that most of what I've said here also applies to Anneke van Giersbergen. I've never been a fan of The Gathering and therefore have very little experience with their music, so most of my experience with her comes from her fantastic collaborations with Devin Townsend, but based on that I think perhaps she isn't entirely suited for this particular gathering.
I didn't realize that Arkona were particularly well-known, hence Masha Scream's exclusion from this list, but that can only be a good thing. Huntress seem to get a lot of flak for one reason or another. I happen to like Jill Janus's voice (same goes for In This Moment, though I'm much more ambivalent towards them), but I won't contest her exclusion, either. Of course, I'm not contesting anyone's exclusion at all, since it isn't my list, but there are a few people whom it couldn't hurt to mention in one humble comment.
My personal favorite singer is Nookie from The Slot; I come bearing examples for anyone who happens to be interested. I'm also a huge fan of their original singer, Teona Dolnikova, and Nookie's solo stuff, while not metal, is quite good as well. While we're in Russian territory, I'll also throw out Lu Gevorgyan of Louna and Tracktor Bowling.
I do quite like Lzzy Hale of Halestorm, but they have actually made it as far as the mainstream, so I doubt they warrant a mention on such a list; on top of that, I cannot escape the feeling that she rarely uses the full extent of her vocal talents, something which haunts the band as a whole, and that makes it difficult to like much of their material. Agnete Kjølsrud of Djerv is good, if perhaps a bit odd, and I do like Doro's voice, but at this point everyone is aware of her and I do unfortunately find a lot of her material somewhat mediocre. Gallhammer bores me heavily and I would describe none of the band members as being a particularly enrapturing vocalist, but they still count as yet another example, if nothing else.
Chelsea Knaack of Heliosaga and Sabrina Valentine of Seven Kingdoms stand out as well, despite having essentially the conventional soft, operatic power metal voices.
Federica de Boni of White Skull possesses quite a unique and snarly voice, so much so that I thought she was a man the first time I heard White Skull. I still wonder sometimes. I'd say that she ranks as one of my favorite female vocalists; top five easily, perhaps top three.
With all that, I might as well just make a list of my own, but somehow I'm still too lazy. Anyway, good list.

Hey,
I know, it's a very late reply but I want to thank you anyway. I will pick one or two of your suggestions.
