Still Remember Evanescence?

Evanescence may still be active but they are not as relevant as they were once was back in 2000s. Back 2003 when I first heard the song "Bring Me to Life", and I felt like the lead singer has a great voice, which I haven't heard such in a rock song. Then I heard the man rapping, which reminded me of Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park.

I actually heard "Bring Me to Life" first on the movie "Daredevil" alongside another Evanescence track "My Immortal". What I like about the band is the vocals of Amy Lee. There's epicness, gothic, and I think it's classic or operatic. It's like a combination of dark and vulnerability.

Talking about "Bring Me to Life", it became a global hit even helping with the success of their debut album "Fallen". After that, they released "Going Under" as the second single which, for me, has a scary and dark music video. The song is also fine, and it has the elements of its predecessor.

I first heard of "My Immortal" on "Daredevil" movie, and then there's this radio station (my favorite) back then which heavily plays the song. In fact, the song was already a hit in that radio statio before it was even released as a single. It's vulnerable, dark, and epic. The rock remix at the last part of the song was great, but the pure piano background is also good. The black and white themed music video is even perfect with the song.

"My Immortal" became one of the signature songs of Evanescence. The succeeding single was "Everybody's Fool", and it sounds just like their other singles. Its lyrics is very relevant though as how the entertainment industry portray women and the appearance.

Evanescence returned for their second album "The Open Door" with "Call Me When You're Sober" as the lead single. I think it's indeed a great choice for a first single of an album, and its music video was well-done. I think it was the last hit the band had.
