I recently started making the push into symphonic metal music genre and I absolutely love it despite the "goth" stereotype usually asigned to it.
Does anyone know of good bands that play similar to music to Nightwish, Evanescence, and Lacuna Coil? Female lead singer is a big plus.
Thanks!

Blind Guardian and some of Megadeath (Symphony of Destruction is a-frickin-mazing) is symphonic metal.
As for similar to those you listed, with a female lead... Flyleaf is decent.

You have failed the internet sir, you couldn't be more wrong.
The only thing more metal than Yanni or Enya is Hercules disembowling a demon and eating its entrails. Since Hercules never really existed, Yanni and Enya are the most metal thing out there.
Learn your music.

They aren't metal at all. It was more of a joke that was taken seriously.

They're made up of a Metallica-loving string quartet for Zeus' sake. What's more symphonic metal than that?
And I'm not even sure they're a real string quartet. I think they're all primarily cellists.

DREAM THEATER is typically grouped in the progressive metal category, but a good bit of their music is orchestral.

Music fail! Dream Theater are my favourite band in the world, but they're are not symphonic metal, not even close!!! Nightwish IS symphonic metal, go look on youtube and see the massive difference in styles!

Nobody mentions Therion in a symphonic metal thread? Tristania is also close to this genre, and After Forever is a good band to listen too.

I think you fail at reading comprehension. I did not say they were symphonic, I said that they were progressive and a good bit of their music is orchestral. This means that their music is extremely complicated, deep, and mature, thus similar to "symphonic metal" and worth mentioning in my mind.
Godforfrigganbid that I say that a band as multifaceted as Dream Theater may peak some interest in individuals that like metal that is not thrash. Music works on a continuum and metal is no different. I bet you would jump down my throat if I said OPETH was progressive metal and not Swedish Black Metal.
If you want to get technical, I doubt many of the bands that are found in a list of symphonic metal bands have ever produced anything that fits the definition of a symphony. Dream Theater on the other hand is very capable of that.

If your looking for a great symphonic metal album, a personal favorite of mine is Blind Gaurdians Nightfall in Middle Earth. Definetally worth checking out.

These two aren't quite symphonic metal, but both are good enough to warrant similarities.
Maudlin of the Well, it's more of an Avant-Garde Metal, but they use enough symphonic instruments.
Esoteric, I think they call them "Astral Metal" or something as ridiculous, but they're not to be confused with "The Esoteric" who suck. You want this one:
