Evanescence: Fallen CD Review

Evanescence is an alternative rock band. I remember listening to their music a few years back. I am the type to really listen to the lyrics to ensure that I like the music lyrically as well.   I really feel that even though it may appear that our backgrounds differ, in music we are equal. There is nothing like listening to music and feeling like the artist is telling your life story.     This is the feeling I got when I listened to Fallen. Evanescence has such a wonderful vibe it’s refreshing. I feel at peace and all my stress fades when I embrace their music. Fallen was Evanescence’s first full-length album released in March of 2003.   The band members include Amy Lee (lead vocals, piano, keyboards, harp), Terry Balsamo (lead guitars), Tim McCord (bass), and Will Hunt (drums and programming).     I truly love this entire album. I feel that this is a universal record that anyone would be eager to listen to. I have heard people put Christian correlations with their music, but I do not get that tone when listening. But, it would be premature for anyone to just that their music is “hell bound” as I feel it is unique. People who critique in such a harsh way do not truly listen to the music, but instead listen at the music. I really do not know how to really explain, as I am sure anyone with a musical background would understand.     I just love the Goth vibe of Evanescence’s general sound. For most people, this record is different from the average rock CD. I feel for this to have been their first album they made history with a bang. A few songs from this CD were featured on the Daredevil movie soundtrack. There is nothing I can say that I disliked about the album.   I would say I wish there were more songs, but one could only expect so much from a newer band who had made their first CD at that time. The recording quality of the album was put together brilliantly. I feel the overall balance of the group is exquisite. All of the band members...
