Evanescence
Am I the only person that doesn't like them?
They just sound like Linkin Park, but with a female lead vocalist. The rest sounds almost exactly the same.
And Linkin Park were new and exciting 3-4 years ago, but their music just sounds samey now.
Hmmm.

I don't think they're anything special.
I detested on first hearing their single (dunno what it's called, the one with the bird falling off the building for no good reason in the video) but it's grown on me a little. But still not gripping.
There's nothing wrong with being samey though. Some of my favourite current listens (e.g. Blink / Sum 41) are emulating (to an extent) Green Day from some time ago. The problem is usually that they're samey but worse quality, etc.

There's a difference though. Linkin Park's songs are shiet. Evanescence has several absolutely rocking ones.

There's a couple of decent tracks on the album, but overall Evanescence are headed for another case of Linkin Park-style overhyping.

Tourniquet was a quite class Marilyn Manson track.

Agreed. Linkin Park's first album was so-so...Meteora has quite a few good songs on it.
However Evanescence's album Fallen pretty much rocks out in entirety.

Maybe I'm wildly off the mark here, but I thought their one single so far was Linkin Park, and they were 'featured'.

I mean, I am only basing this opinion on the one song, but it was very similar.
I think they have the ability to do a lot more, I'm just hoping they'll do that and not stick down the same path.

I am now going to be dull and point out that only that one single has the bloke in it, the rest are just the woman vocalist.

I was going round town one day, and 3 music shops I went in had the album on.
All of their songs are exactly the same.
Also, Linkin Park's first album, although fairly ****e, was listenable-to for a couple of goes. Meteora is disgustingly bad.

Then clearly you suck.
Maybe you and Hobbie could work something out.

I like it, i think the girl has a unusual voice.
I surprised myself with the album as it's not usually my type of music, which may account for why you Linkin park lot don't seem to like it.

hmmm, i can't stand linkin park, but i'm yet to find an evanescence song i don't like (inc the eps)
one thing you can't say about the album is that they're all the same ffs, it's one of the most varied albums around atm, and her voice is
however, the video = ****e (she = sex0r)
