aw thats not fair, man!
Lots of metal I find impenetrable but it isnt easy to play so there is definitely something in it for people who like their music textured.

The rawr thing or the heavy metal scream is often dull but some singers not only scream effectively but can change to a 'clean' vocal at the drop of a hat and the counterpoint is impressive and sometimes even lovely.

Check out Opeth and their singer Mikael Akerfeldt.

Or, for amusement value, listen to 'Nemesis' by Arch Enemy, then look at this picture

Yep, she's the singer

The lovely Angela
I swear most people only go to Arch Enemy shows to hear "The woman who sounds like a man". She's tiny. But a great crowd puller.

She's also one of the few death metal screamers you can actually make out the words in.

I agree
She is lovely...

But she's still only average looking compared to Christina Scabbia
*drools*

saw this person Lauren Harris at Sonisphere. She actually rocked quite a lot.

edit: Turns out she's daughter of Iron Maiden bassist, Steve Harris!

Check out Veronica Freeman from 'Benedictum'.

Do want, all of them.
Also add any number of other female metal singers. Quite often they are hot.
