SpitKittie
Formed in Canada in 1996, the heavy metal band Kittie will blow you away with an aggression you wouldn’t expect from an all-female group—just listen to the title track of their debut album, Spit, and you’ll get it.
Their addictive, powerful guitar riffs, death growls that rival any male vocalist, and, in stark contrast, operatic, resonant clean vocals seized the hearts of devoted fans.
The more you dive into their uniquely striking songs, the more hooked you’ll become.
Definitely check them out!
Stop DesireTegan and Sara
A Canadian indie pop duo consisting of twin sisters.
In their earliest days they were a Neil Young-style guitar rock duo, but they later reinvented their image and became known for a cute, 80s-inspired electro pop sound.
EmergencyGirlschool
It’s true that rock music—and especially the heavy metal genre—has long been a male-dominated world.
Charging into that scene and, despite numerous lineup changes, sustaining a 30-year career as an all-female band, the legendary group Girlschool stands out.
They rose to prominence during the so-called NWOBHM boom that erupted mainly in the UK in the 1980s, gaining worldwide popularity as pioneers of the all-girl band.
Their 1981 album Hit and Run was a hit in their home country of Britain and ultimately went gold.
Although they experienced some lean years afterward, they returned from a hiatus and, even into the 2020s, continue to barrel down the straight, loud, high-volume highway.
JumpersSleater-Kinney
A girls’ trio from Olympia, Washington, USA.
While they never achieved major commercial success, they enjoyed a cult following on the indie scene and, since their formation in 1994, have continued to influence many bands over a long period.
They went on hiatus in 2006, but restarted in 2014 and are now energetically active as a duo with two original members.
Perhaps their most distinctive feature is their bass-less lineup.
In their early days they had a rough, punkish sound emblematic of Riot Grrrl, but later their music became more refined, embracing a rich musicality centered on a supple, distinctly feminine sensibility.
DeathNervosa
Nervosa is a thrash metal band from Brazil.
Formed in 2010, they released a demo in 2012 and quickly signed with Austria’s Napalm Records, rapidly gaining popularity, especially in Europe.
While they initially drew attention for being an all-female band, their powerful, authentic performances swiftly overturned the idea that thrash metal is a men’s genre.
Breaking beyond the “girls’ band” label, they’ve captured the attention not only of metalheads worldwide but also of broader music fans.
Following lineup changes and a new formation, all eyes are on their future achievements.
