Am I allowed to include female solo artists?? If so, my list would be:

1) Hole
2) Fiona Apple
3) The Dead Weather
4) The Duke Spirit
5) The Kills
6) Blonde Redhead
7) Blood Red Shoes
8) Warpaint
9) The Runaways
10) Howling Bells

Honorary mentions to Elasica, The Breeders and (if they didn't have male vocalists in more than half of the songs) Sonic Youth and My Bloody Valentine would be number number 2 and 3 respectively. Though, that probably means I can't use Blood Red Shoes either... and possibly even The Dead Weather!
