First of all, the drug comment originally was a joke!

Thanks for your opinion BUT this is a music forum and thats what this post was about. Until people got their feelings hurt by a joke!

I didnt know someone out there personally knew all of these artists and when they started using. Please!

1. Don't leave your day job....but the response wasn't responding to that original post.
2. Opinions? Great response to facts of the mater. Feelings hurt? I could care less either way.
3. I see, because someone with no clue WTF? he is talking about doesn't know anyone or any of the fell known facts automatically means this covers everyone else on the third rock from the sun.

Maybe I shouldn't have said anything

Nothing wrong with a little debate of opinions.

But I still would like any suggestions of current female rock artists out there that I can check out. With a Courtney style of grunge/rock/alternative etc....

last time i heard anyone that sounded like hole was the distillers. i think it's fair to compare brody dalle with courtney love.

Patti Smith
The Breeders
Elastica

All of which are actually a lot better than Hole, so you get an upgrade of sorts.

Sonic Youth, although Kim Gordon isn't their only vocalist.

Yasuko Onuki

Hmmm... most of the female vocalists I have heard and liked are nice sounding rather than aggressive. Except perhaps the girl in Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

I think a band like Nevermore would sound great with a female vocalist but most power metal bands with female singers tend to have the soprano-styled vocals which takes away from the rocking out part.
