Fleetwood Mac has that guy sing lead in a handful of songs so it's cheating

But I voted for them anyways

Powerful band. Misogyny caused people to dismiss Courtney Love though.

yyeah I love Hole, although the Cobain murder mystery also undoubtably hurt her career.

Art Bears
Slapp Happy
The Slits

Dagmar Krause and the musicians backing her in Art Bears and Slapp Happy are simply brilliant. Dagmar also has an amazing and unique voice. These two bands she sang with made great art rock, and Slapp Happy's self titled album elevates pop music with distinctly thoughtful lyrics, melodies, and excellent musicianship.

Cut by the The Slits is a perfect record that seamlessly blends punk and reggae with nothing but memorable songs.

It's a toss-up between Heart and Joan Jett. I'll say Heart since they had more hits.

Metric is one of the good woman led rock bands, but I dont think they cut it to be called the best. Pretty much on the same level as Yeah Yeah Yeahs (imo)

I also really like the Dollyrots as well.

I honestly like I lot of female led bands, the female voice as lead vocals is soothing to me. >_>

Would give a heads or tails tie between Fleetwood Mac and Siouxsie & The Banshees since those ladies made music bigger than them.

I don't know if I'm the only one here but I do not "get" Heart. They've gotten props as pioneers of their type but otherwise I always felt that basically they had just one incredible all-time song and were jusssst interesting enough to last as long as they have. Meh.

I had to sit through this crap when I went to see Smashing Pumpkins.

After EVERY song the girl just said "WE'RE METRIC!". It became a joke to the audience. After a song people would start looking around asking everyone around them if they happened to know who this band is.

I was definitely going to choose Heart when I saw the topic title but Pat Benatar just has some unbelieveable hits. Ah well.

i don't think i would categorize Fleetwood Mac as woman led.

I also agree, just having women sing in a band, does not mean they lead the band. I enjoyed Fleetwood Mac when Peter Green and later Bob Welch were in the band. The albums "Bare Trees" and "Mystery To Me" their eighth studio album, were great, of course Nicks and Buckingham joining for their self titled tenth album, set the stage for their mainstream success with Rumours.

I enjoyed Suzie Quatro

It is really hard to choose, so many fine female bands over the years.
