Doesn't anyone think they sound a lot like Linkin Park?


Only "Bring Me To Life" has the Linkin Park vibe cause they got Paul from the 12 Stones to guest on it. Download "My Immortal" & "Imaginary" which will show you other sides of their music.

HI!

Well... i just got back from NYC... drove up with a friend.  Got to listen to Evanescence - BMtL 7 times on the way up and back (radio stations... not bad).  One of the radio stations commented on how they sound like Linkin Park -- pissed me off.  Also when they introduce the song they never say "featuring Paul McCoy."  I wish they would grow a brain and realize that it's just Amy in 99.9% of the songs AND even the version of BMtL without Paul sounds 100x better.  what a pisser...

on to great news tho... check it out... Evanescence won Cool Band of the Week.. check it out http://www.coolbandoftheday.com/

Ta!

yup, i especially liked the quote on the webpage:

Quote
Spiraling had the most votes for week 2; however, when emails were checked they had over 100 fake email addresses dropping them to the 3rd spot and Evanescence was the number one.


yay for Ev also having the most non-fake email addys and winning legally (or at least... close to it ;) )

just because *I* happen to have a couple hundred email addys doesn't mean anything :D

Interesting Fact About Them I Heard on MTV:
They named the band Evanescence because they thought it'd make a cool logo.  8)

yeh... like MTV is a good source for info... pssh
Once upon a time they had a really dumb band name and were looking for something new.
Ben is the creative type... he liked the letter "E" cause he could do several artistic designs with it. So they litterally took a dictionary and browsed through the E's and came across "Evanescent", Amy especially liked the meaning behind it: a ghostly fading away type of thing. And so they took the plural of it and thus became "Evanescence".

Well Kev,
What you said is basically what MTV said only what you said is a bit more detailed.
But it's all good.
You are the all-knowing Evanescence guy So I believe you.

No, the unofficial word is "Going Under" is on tap next. A small chance of it being "My Last Breath" too.
