Our job is based on a mixture of musical talent, ability to perform, creativity and knowledge, but we all know that stage presence, style and physical appearance are sometimes even more important, especially if you are a female artist.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I always get angry when someone, talking about Ravenscry, compliments not for Giulia\u2019s voice but for <strong>her appearance<\/strong>. We never wanted to base our activity on the fact that our singer is a charming young woman, even if we could. Her appearance on stage is never discussed before, we do not force her to wear in a particular way to be more provocative or sexy, and she is always deciding how to manage her public image in the way that she feels more comfortable.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sadly, this is not very common since, as we all can notice looking around us, not only in music, often women\u2019s bodies are exploited to make a commercial product more appealing. I will probably say something uncomfortable for some of my readers, but even in the \u201cfemale metal world\u201d, the examples of this kind are a lot. Just think about how many times is so natural for us, seeing a picture of a female-fronted band, thinking <strong>\u201cshe\u2019s hot\u201d<\/strong> even before every other comment about the music. So natural and so sad, indeed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We believe that music should be the only thing that is important, even in a world that puts appearance before everything else. Every member of Ravenscry has his own personal style; everyone decides for himself\/herself how to manage his\/her stage appearance following just his\/her personal taste and no one can change this.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We really appreciate the fact that we are not alone in this fight against sexual exploitation of female figure, as there are other very talented female fronted bands as <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/thegreatdiscord\/\">The Great Discord<\/a><\/strong> or <strong>Guano Apes<\/strong> who are working to be great musicians regardless of physical appearance (even, to be honest, they could have, since both their singers are good looking).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Could you name other band who are following this philosophy of thought? Let me know in the comments!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In my previous posts, I tried to enlighten some of the problems of being an artist in music and what kind of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1036,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[202],"tags":[16,135,155,151,136,143,144,269,109,118,137,156,140,141,154,148,147,139,7,142,8],"class_list":["post-1034","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-fagios-corner","tag-attrazione-degli-opposti","tag-disk-union-metal","tag-female-fronted-metal-bands","tag-female-metal-bands","tag-heavy-metal-bands","tag-heavy-metal-music","tag-heavy-metal-songs","tag-hot","tag-ilivealive","tag-metal","tag-metal-injection","tag-metal-merchandise","tag-metal-music","tag-metal-news","tag-metal-shirts","tag-new-metal-albums","tag-opposite-attract","tag-opposites-attract","tag-ravenscry","tag-symphonic-metal","tag-the-attraction-of-opposites"],"translation":{"provider":"WPGlobus","version":"3.0.2","language":"en","enabled_languages":["en"],"languages":{"en":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false}}},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.6 -
