I really only listen to it when the bands intend for the orchestration to be a part of the original piece of music. Epic symphonic metal (which is essentially what Evanescence is trying to do when it does that) is a pretty ridiculously cool and complex deviation from the norm of really loud guitars and incomprehensible screaming that characterizes a lot of metal.
If you like it this style and are interested, check out:
Nightwish

Rhapsody
