By early 2003, bubble-gum pop was on its way out and pop-rock was taking the forefront in terms of the mainstream music market. People were getting bored of the formulaic blonde hair and boy bands dancing in formation and were yearning for something grittier. In comes Evanescence. With rock hard guitars, mystical strings and Amy Lee’s haunting vocals, the band filled a void that was missing from pop radio. From their grand-slam debut single “Bring Me To Life” to tearjerker ballads like “My Immortal”, this debut album “Fallen” is a story of love lost, and is a 2000s staple. So put on your chokers, get out your guitars and try not to fall off the side of a building “if you know you know” …. It’s time to dive into “Fallen”.
