Anyone see their performance on the AMA's last night? No Ben. I hope that doesn't mean he is gone for good. :-(

You are tasteful and accurate. Yet at the same time, I'm not entirely sure that anyone really into the whole nu-metal thing is really going to dig the Coil.

Anyways, Evanescence are tolerable, their vocalist is alright. I have a few singles by them, but I'd never buy their whole album. There's legions of angsty teenagers to do that for me. :)

But if anyone does want to check out Lacuna Coil, sample the tracks My Wings, Heaven's A Lie, Angel's Punishment, and When A Dead Man Walks, and see if you can enjoy it.

yep, good choice.

I also suggest "the Gathering" especially the albumm "Mandylion". Great music, great singer; plus the singer anneke is much hotter than amy ;)

OK, I finally gave in. I tried the iTunes Music Store for Lacuna Coil, but they weren't there, so I Kazaa'd a couple of tunes.

Not bad, but I really don't like the gravel-voiced shouting guy I heard on the tracks; I found it took away from my enjoyment of the rest of the group. Is he like that on all the songs?

Linkin Park makes me wish I was deaf. And when I first heard Evenescence, all I could think was Linkin Park + Girl = still whiny high-school rock. Then I saw Evenescence play at the AMA's and I have to admit, they fuckin' rocked. I was impressed. Not enough to buy the album, but I enjoyed the performance.

Evanasence is good stuff :D and it doesnt really sound much like linkin park
