In hopes to not get yelled at for bringing this thread back, I'd like to make a few more plugs:
1. Lacuna Coil (
http://www.emptyspiral.net ). They're an italian band that is really great. I'd recommend anyone buying their CD "Comalies" (it's in English). Also, the link I gave, if you sign up (it's free), you can download a song or two from their other albums (in English).
2. Mandylion (no link known now). I don't know if this group just dropped off the face of the universe, but they [were/are] great. They're something like a darker Nightwish.
I dunno if it's just me, but it seems like a bunch of foreign bands in the metal-related field have lead female vocalists. It's all good though
