...at
Amazon right now they're trying to sell the Fallen album with Linkin Park's Meteora...guess everyone thinks...whatever....
I really like the sound of Evenescence, and I agree, the radio edit (or whatever it's called) of <i>Bring Me To Life</i> does sound Linkin Park-ish. I f&$king hate that version. The one on the CD, (without the dude shouting WAKE ME UP, in fact without the dude entirely, it's just Amy Lee and the band), sounds great. Don't know why they had to put that other singer on the track for DareDevil. Screw that $#!+.
Right now I'm stuck listening to <i>Hello</i>. It's deep. I dig the piano, it's so simple, and Amy's voice is freakin' powerful. Chick should do more piano stuff. I read in their bio at Launch "<i>Ben Moody (lead guitarist) met at a junior high summer camp, where Moody was so impressed by Lee's piano rendition of Meat Loaf's "I'd Do Anything For Love" that he asked the young talent to join him in a band</i>..." Man, I'd love to hear them cover that song.
So yeah, the band rocks and the radio edit of <i>Bring me to Life</i> is not their best work.
The
video for <i>Going Under</i> is wild.
