The Gathering
Lacuna Coil
Nightwish

And I know I'm forgetting a bunch.

I wouldn't call any of them metal though. Although I'd certainly agree they paved the way for this sort of thing.

There wouldn't have been a Tori Amos without Lita Ford, that's for sure.

Hah, I think it's funny how in the other threads everyone was riding their jock and paising them silly and now most of the people in this thread are saying "Well, they are nothing special."

Fads pass so quickly and most of you people are so fickle.

That's all we get? People bashing and cutting down, and all we get is a reference to your sig?

Well...;)

Just a general response to those that don't like them...I'm not gonna go crazy if you don't...that's your choice and I respect that. I just think that those who haven't given the rest of Fallen, or any of Origin (probably a superior CD IMO, along with the rest of their older stuff) a chance, then they are really missing out, and shouldn't base their opinions off of just Bring Me to Life.

But like I said, if you don't want to give them a chance, or just aren't into the music then that's fine, just don't put them down based off of one song.

That'll be all for now...:p

Edit - And as far as them disappearing once BMtL falls down on the charts, well....we'll see! ;) Their second single Going Under has already been getting some airplay, so we'll see where that gets them....
