Bought the CD a few weeks ago.

I was glad I got it too.

Really good.

We've literally had about 4 Evanescence threads in the last few weeks. Search, search, search.

And Evanescence blows. If you can show me anything original about this band, you get a lollipop.

If I could find anything original about anything, I'd deserve more than just a lolli-pop.

I wouldn't really call them original, no. They sound like a woman singing linkin park songs. BUT I think they pull it off and make the music enjoyable (What I've heard at least) and the singer has an amazing voice, it's just beautiful. And I usually hate female singers in rock bands, but she's good.

I somehow thought they would be something else, considering how many people yammer about them as though they were the most wonderful band with this dark, hypnotic music. Imagine me sitting here listening to it for the first time. Ok, don't. To me they are an inferior version of Lacuna Coil. Sort of like Lacuna Coil playing Linkin Park covers while Christina has a cold. I don't mind the woman's voice in Evanescence, it's pleasant enough, but it seems to lack any real strength or depth. I noticed that her voice is constantly multi-tracked, a common studio trick to make a person's voice appear more pleasing and powerful, with only a few short sections devoid of the layering. It's these that give it away, the girl hasn't the voice to carry the power of the expression in the songs their producer wrote for them. I may be focussing too much on that voice, but the guy's vocals are ultimately useless and the music is bland and uninspiring. Which of course is why I hear it on the radio at work all the time, now that I know who that is.
