DOROTHY Names The Five Best Women Screamers Of All Time

Dorothy

We caught up with Dorothy just after the release of her new single "Mud" with one question in mind – who are the best, most powerful women behind the mic? The following are Dorothy's picks. As for "Mud", you can stream it right here.

Maria Brink of In This Moment

Maria has a thousand different voices in one! She has one of the most unique screaming AND singing voices, full of vulnerability and raw emotion. Honorable Mentions: "Whore" and "Big Bad Wolf"

Lzzy Hale of Halestorm

Lzzy has a killer growl that she laces in with her soulful singing. She hits insanely high notes WITH her resonant gravely growl as if she has two separate voices radiating at once. Honorable Mentions: "Back From The Dead" and "Love Bites"

Ash Costello of New Years Day

I love the brightness in her scream and ability to belt those big high notes. She fluctuates effortlessly between screaming and singing. Honorable Mentions: "Malevolence" and "Hurts Like Hell"

Tatiana Shmayluk of Jinjer

Tatiana has a thick, full tone in her lower growl and a nice strength and brightness when she screams the higher notes. Top to bottom, her screaming and vocals are excellent. Honorable Mention: "Sit Stay Roll Over"

Angela Gossow of Arch Enemy

Angela has a brutally iconic growl and scream. Hats off to one of the greats! Honorable Mention: "My Apocalypse"
