I think they are good but they lack the diversity. All their songs are pretty much the same

I love them for the diversity they have. From rock to piano ballads to near trip-hop. Evanescence is an amazing band and they really have the potential to be so much greater.

As in a hit single? Their latest album went #1 on the billboard charts and they had a song featured on the Underworld soundtrack AND the Avengers soundtrack. I think that's pretty successful...

Honestly I don't hear much diversity there, just bombastic vocals with faux hard rock backing music and bombastic vocals with pop ballad style backing music. The emphasis is the same regardless: it's all about the vocals. And unfortunately those vocals really don't do it for me.

Your loss, good sir!
I respect your opinion, however wrong it may be!

I know it's cliche, but this is simply a great ****ing song in every regard. Try writing and recording something this cool before you diss.

The ultra-cheesy piano at the beginning is great in every regard? The generic guitar riffs are great in every regard? The lifeless production is great in every regard? The cringey, faux-dramatic singing is great in every regard?

Chula, you are now a teenage girl with black nail polish. Have a razor blade.

And yet you worship all of Vargs cliches. Priceless.

You literally have no taste. None. There's a record company marketing exec on acid frantically masturbating and pressing a button that sends a message to a satellite that bounces it down to your brain and gives you a shot of dopamine whenever you listen to any artist with "e" in their name. That is how you interpret music.
