There was lot of crap that happened in 2014 related to domestic violence/harassment of women. When I sent in my letter for the end of the year Friday Music Day, I realized I had purchased a lot of music from female-fronted bands. Heavy metal has always been, and will probably always be, heavily skewing towards males, but it is starting to get much more diverse, gender-wise, these days. So, with all of the crap that happened last year, I thought I'd spend a week celebrating what that type of diversity can bring to music like this.
Up first is Nightwish, who basically made symphonic metal with a classically trained vocalist a thing.
I've been doing Epica radio a lot on Pandora lately, so this should be a pretty familiar week for me. Hail our female metal overlords!
Can I not rate these on my phone?
cheaptoy forgot to set the post type to Video.
Huh, pretty sure I checked that box. Be prepared to fix that mistake all week then.
You haven't scheduled any more posts, so it's on you now. Two more notes: don't bother with the featured image for video posts, that happens automatically; and don't forget the "Guest DJ" tag!
In fairness to cheaptoy, I didn't send him the updated DJ packet.
Guilty!

vaguely (vaguely!) apropos, I heard a story on NPR yesterday about Kim Fowley, the dude behind the creation of the Runaways, who died recently.
