Not many.. I know of That Dog, but they suck.

Jack-Off Jill is the only one I can think of right now.. Of Montreal occasionally has female vocals, too.

Pretty Girls Make Graves.
Metric.


That's all I can think of at the moment. I just found Metric, and was blown away by them. They sound a lot like Rilo Kiley, minus the cutsiness... which is awesome.

that would be hanzel und gretyl, which i guess goes without saying. don't let the name fool you, gretyl definitely fronts that band. although hanzel definitely delivers plenty of attitude.

vis-a-vis veruca salt -- i just saw willy wonka and the chocolate factory (the original, real one, thank you very much) and i was all, holy crap, that's why that name sounded so familiar all these years.

the actress who played veruca salt is still -- er, you know. and she's like 50. gives me hope.
