What are some rock/alternative bands with FEMALE lead singers that still make music?

Question

Okay, so I'm looking for some female leaded rock/alternative bands! I like bands like Paramore, Hey Monday, Versaemerge, New Years Day, Fit for Rivals, We Are The In Crowd, and other bands like that..
Can you give me some bands that I might like? Also, I'd prefer they are bands that are still in the music making business or are bands that formed recently. Newer bands. Nothing 90's or 80's or anything old.
(P.S. I hate Flyleaf and The Meg and Dia Band and Kelsey and the Chaos and Selena Gomez and The Scene, so please don't suggest them.)

Please and thank you!

I would suggest Lights if you're into Owl City-ish like genre but to a lesser extent (owl city is too much electronics and stuff)

By the way someone answered Circa Survive? The lead is a male -_-

Evanescence
Tegan and Sara

Sorry, I can't think of any more at the moment... :&#92;

I hate Selena Gomez & The Scene, too... Selena shouldn't be allowed to sing. >.<
Paramore and Hey Monday are awesome, though :)

? · Answer

Tegan and Sara are ok
In this Moment is really good, but only if you like metal
The ting tings are ok too


Chumbawumba is an old band but they still play and have a female, as well as a male lead singer but they kick ***.  ( they are VERY alternative though )
