Evanescence - My Immortal

[Sauro]

I can replicate their music.
Step 1: Find Cat

Step 2: Strangle Cat

Step 3: Enjoy the sound, because apparently you like it already



And guys, remember it's just a joke, so don't start flaming because I don't like them.

Nightwish. Think of them as the Evanescence that doesn't suck

 

[Kadarin]

I just can't stand her whining voice. Sorry...

6 cds before fallen? There was one that was published, and a couple they gave out when starting I think.. but from what I found labeled as a separate cd.. much of it was re--used across the board.

But I gotta say I do like quite a bit that was not on Fallen.

It's the 'couple they gave out' I was referring to. They did the one major concert release before "Fallen", 3 demo CDs for the studios (about 4-6 songs each), and a couple other concert releases (also only 4-6 songs each).

Granted, a LOT of recycled songs, true. But, at least when re-used they generally did very different versions of a song. A couple (don't recall by name), you'd never realize was the same song.

Taking a look at my "Evanescence" MP3 folder, I find I have 71 songs from them. Lots of good stuff, all of the pre-"Fallen" songs are MUCH better than "Fallen".


Ummmm....that said, yeah, Nightwish kicks their ass. My wife hates Evanescence, too, but she really digs Nightwish. (Which is odd, given that she really hates rock/metal music in general, preferring folk and Irish music....but she likes Nightwish!)

Probably any moron with a taste in music and appreciation of talent which realizes that a lot of their music is nothing more than pop-hack jobs.

question one: does it sound good?
question two: do you enjoy it?
question three: if you have to ask yourself a third question, youre an elitist prick.

i like evanescence. quit your bitching. to answer the post- try the cranberries.

Urban Dictionary - Evanescence:

American Pop-Rock group who create their 'deep & meaningful' songs by weaving as many popular clichés relating to human suffering as they possibly can into the lyrics and then lacing over it with the soaring, operatic trills of Amy Lee and a good portion of spunky guitar riffs.

Edit: Cranberries = good
In my mind Evanescence is similar to The Tea Party and ... I can't remember the name, I'll edit it in later.

I tried Nightwish. I can't stand the woman's opera-like singing. It's not the angelic/soft voice type... it's the friggin opera for real.

spoken just like an I-wanna-be-special person who hates anyone famous or not "underground". :thumbsup: :roll:

i like Breathe No More and Solitude!!

The entire Origin album is more similar to how My Immortal sounds on Fallen.

Basically, most of the songs on Origin were re-written for Fallen, and on fallen they have more of a rock style, whereas on fallen they are softer, more piano, etc.

 

[Demon-Xanth]

Nightwish's "Dead Boy's Poem" has a similar feel to it. They also have a few others that sound good.
