Female-fronted heavy metal

[Aristocrap]

I'm looking for bands in the same vein as Chastain, Black Knight, Crystal Viper, etc. Female vocalists with that ol' heavy metal feel. Any recommendations would be appreciated!

You almost certainly already know Hellion and Warlock (and they're more on the hard rocking side of trad metal unlike the ones you mentioned), but they're obligatory mentions. Masque (UK) is very good; never released an album (one EP and a demo with many songs from the EP) but it's great traditional/power stuff.

That's the ticket! Really liking Masque. I'll have to have a listen to the ones autumn posted. I've heard of Hysterica before; I listened to their Metalwar album.
