At first the band had found some local fame in Little Rock, releasing their first CDs there, before blasting on to the music scene with their debut album Fallen which has sold over 14 million copies worldwide to date.
Many people consider the band rock but the band doesnt truly fit the criteria for rock. The real genre of the group is Symphonic or Gothic Metal.

Get the Evanescence mug.A great band. With a kick ass lead singer. Their genre is post grunge. Which is cool, because I'm a big fan of grunge music. It sucks that Ben left the band. They've had 2 albums out, and they came to their height of popularity in march of '03 when bring me to life was released. Though they are still very popular.
I was a fan of 12 stones, so I heard the duet that evaneacence did with them. I liked Bring me to life a lot. I heard the song on WWE Raw, a month before it was released.

Get the Evanescence mug.The best band with the best songs ever!! "Although Away From Me" comes across pop-like to me, "Missing" will forever remain perfect in my heart. They come across as Dark Rock, Hard Rock, Goth Rock. (although they aren't really goth...)
Away from me is an awesome song!!
-sings-
I hide behind a smile as this perfect plan unfolds...
Missing!! -sings-
Please, please, forgive me...

Get the The Circle of Evanescence mug.Popular band associated with 'goth culture' though the latter of the two statements could (And should.. by the power of me. I command!) be perceived as false. Arguably while creating very accessible sounds which is in theory technically okay on CD. Is still unbearable to hear live as even some fans admit. Also the lead singer's voice would be without the infuence of Bush cause the Nato to attack America for not getting rid of unauthorised weapons of mass destruction. Although the editor of that voice is a very talented guy.
As said, the Evanescence sound is accesible, thus apeals to a wide audience and emotional and atmospheric complexity is kept to a minimal level. Amy Lee is partially responsible for an increase in depression reports as well amongst fans as amongst people who happen to posses radios although the validy of the claims of the prior one should not be taken seriously and should be laughed upon.
As also said the so called 'goth culture' it is associated with is a mistake maken by people who can't tell a pubical rebel dressed totally in black with extravagant apearance and heavily questionable intellectual abilities. From a goth who are mainly dressed totally in black with extravagant apearance and are able to - and will for the love of God do so whenever they have the chance - to demonstrate a highly developed range of knowledge and a philosphical way of approaching life.
With that said, altough the Evenescence listeres at least try to hide it with faking depression, all of the in the above paragraph subculture inhabitands generally think they're culture is the best in the world.
People who like Evanescence also have the intriging property of voting against urbandictionary difinitions which do not match there personal taste, thus this definition will probably be bannished to the final page.
