About two years ago, someone posted videos from a band that put out music similar to Evanescence's "Fallen" disc. The look and feel of the videos were gothic - they would have fit perfectly into "The Crow" soundtrack.

I can't find that post. Can you help?


Here's a sample from Evanescence's "Fallen" disc:

The band I'm thinking of may have been "Within Temptation." Here are a few samples:

Maybe Halestorm

Probably not Flyleaf but possible

Definitely not The Vincent Black Shadow (but you could do worse)

Gothic music, hot female singer?
Lacuna Coil

Any song of Theatre of tragedy, im sure that is what you looking for

Deff less gay even if not what you're after.
 
The original guitar/song writer guy left Evanescence and started a band called We are the Fallen. The singer is a chick from American Idol that sorta morphed into a Amy Lee clone.

Thanks guys. I was looking for a particular band, and got a bunch of great material in return. Awesome. A few notes...

At justo_tx: Halestorm is pretty good. About Flyleaf, for some reason, that chick bugs me (presence and voice). I can't put my finger on it, but it's there. About The Vincent Black Shadow, awesome. I actually thought of Uncle Tupelo when watching them, which makes absolutely no sense at all. lol

At cL0ckwork_Red: I like 'em! They're now on my list.

At Flash4Ever: Very cool band. As an aside, the female doesn't need to be hot. Heck, she could even have a huge goiter jutting from her neck. She just needs to have a voice to match the music, and a presence to match the theme of the video. Come to the think of it, a large goiter might have thematic value. ;)

At jaranen: I'm having trouble getting into Theatre Of Tragedy. Might be the dude's growl during the first half.

At d_diggler: Arch Enemy is definitely not gay (then again, there was Halford. Who knew?!), but not my style. Thanks for including it, though.

At Moxie: Thanks. I lost track of that guy. Their stuff sounds just like Evanescence. And their video feels like the stuff he used to do with them. It fits with what I'm looking for.

Thanks again, guys. That's a lot of good stuff to go through.
 
boy the moment i saw your topic i instantly thought lacuna coil and within temptation. If thats not it and its not halestorm or flyleaf or that one with a black chick singer (brain fart). Otep?
It can't possibly be Unter Null is it?
She's been posted here before but she's industrial shock rock, nothing like evanescence.

Yeah within temptation is the most evanescence-e band i know of. Maybe leaves eyes a little bit.

"All hail Nightwish ! But the band has lost Its glory after Tarja quit the band ."

I dunno, I liked Dark Passion Play.
 
Fattom is sitting next to me and says he knows exactly who you're thinking of
