We are the fallen (If your a tagahanga of this band then don't bother reading)

I really just want to voice my opinion about this new band 'we are the fallen'.
I saw them on youtube the other araw and thought that they kind of seemed a little like Evanescence, so I did some digging and found out this.
The band is made up from former members of Evanescence, Ben moody, Rocky Gray and John lecompt. The lead singer Carly Smithson off American Idol and huge tagahanga of Evanescence, happens to look like Amy Lee (lead singer of Evanescence)Is it sa pamamagitan ng accident that ex members of Evanescence use a look a like of their former lead for their new band? I think not. 'We are the fallen' (WATF)states " were just musicians trying to make music. we aren't trying to re-invent the wheel of Evanescence, were doing something new". Really?? If they were trying to be 'new' would they look, dress, sound the same as Evanescence? would they do cover songs 'Bring me to life', 'my imortal' and 'going under' sa pamamagitan ng Evanescence? Would they name their band after Evanescence's first Album 'fallen'? To me this band is a copy cat, and are not going to get very far, with their 'new' music. My opinion? This band sucks, and are trying to start a war that they honestly can't win! If your having doubts about this then go to:

And see for your self. I can't wait untill Evanescence brings out their new album and shows WATF just who they're really competing with. We Evanescence fans need to stick together. Enjoy the vid. xxx

Sweeney-Pie We are the Fallen is such a gay band, i hate pictures of them cuz they cant model like Any can, plus that other chick is butt ugly. Rock on EVANESCENCE!

vampiressJazz they copy evanescence they suck could they be more inventive and think of better name yeah it's a nice flowing name but it's copy off on evanescence

vampiressJazz the chick is fugly amy is a goddess and she's just a lowly mortal trying to copy her

sapherequeen Well, I can see some resemblance between them and Evanescence, but I don't think they're trying to copy them. In my opinion, a lot of other singers dress up the way Amy Lee does. Like Cristina Scabbia from Lacuna Coil, and the girl from Nightwish (I wish I knew her name, but I currently don't). And their music is actually pretty good. I like them, and I think they're a fantastic band. My opinion is that I love Evanescence and We Are The Fallen, but I will for everyone else's benefit say that I do like Evanescence a lot better. :) PS: I wasn't a fan before I read the article, I accessed the link and watched some videos of the songs by We are The Fallen, and that's when I liked them and therefore became a fan ^_^

DramaKweenie Hi, Sapherequeen, That's cool, don't feel like you have to say that Ev is beter cause of this article. Im open to everyone's opinions. It's good that you like WATF and all, but the only reason why im so against the the band is because of a comment Ben made in an interview. He said, "This band is going to bring more power then Evanescenece could ever muster" So I think for him, and the other Ex members of Ev, it's like there way of trying to get back at Amy or something? I don't know, but im kinda feeling a little sorry for Carly been dragged into all this mess. But yes, you are right. Any female fronted rock band that has dark hair and wears all black, is atomaticly going to be compared to the band that has been around longer than they have. Thanks Everyone for your comments. :)

sapherequeen I understand how you feel and accept your opinion as well. Thank you for accepting mine :) And you are welcome for my comment. PS: I truly think Evanescence is better, though. Maybe the words, "for everyone else's benefit" were wrong to type...

meemyselfandi Hello. All of you Amy asskissers need to go fuck yourself. Thank you and goodnight.

DramaKweenie Well technically, You can't kiss someone's ass if it's not there to kiss....

sapherequeen Wow, meemyselfandi. Immature much? gtfu.

Vixie79 I personally don't like WATF, I think they're a bunch of posers. You can't manufacture rock and if you do, you get WATF. Evanescence forever!!!

kayleeluvsbooks i personally do think that evanescence is better, but you guys cant just act like WATF is terrible just because they sound similar. Ben Moody WROTE some of the songs in Evanescence, so obviously they are going to sound similar. It's not like other singers dont have similar music genres too.

Charmed666 Carly(and Ben) suckx Amy rockx

para-scence i hate watf. from what i heard, ben left because he didntlike the kind ofmusic they were playing. so he makes a band wth an ugly ass bitch, with muic that sounds just like it, only it epically fails. & john and rocky leave because they needed to be center of attention, but in watf theyre right back where they were. they suck. evanescence forever.

Katclub8 WATF is a bag load of SH*T! A bag full of lies, lies LIES!!!!!!! Evanescence will crush these brainless wimps thinking that they are coming up with something new when they are just simply advertising for the originals. For peat sake, if you threw away your talent in the trash years before, it's rotten by now. YOU WON'T BEAT US!!! MWAHAHAHA!

bloody1 UM...personally i dnt hate WATF. to me they sound pretty cool, but i'm in love with evanescence more than anything. And i also believe dat Ben and the ex-members of evanescence may be tryin to get back at amy but no one really knows d reason. there's is no point in havin such contreversies. but Evanescence is still all me

nymphetamina First and foremost, Ben, John and Rocky, per your post, are former members of EV. They have every right to play their songs. Now, just because they've made a new band doesn't mean they have to change genres. This is their original sound. If you listen to the new EV album and then compare it with the Fallen album, you would notice the difference. The Fallen album has a much darker sound which I absolutely loved and what got me hooked to EV in the first place. Of course, WATF would sound like EV (the original EV)! I mean hello, Ben , John and Rocky also contributed a lot to how EV sounded before. But as I have said, the EV album you hear nowadays is much different than the Fallen one. Lastly, hands down, Amy is the best singer for this genre. Her voice is sooo full of emotion. Carly has a strong voice but it seems to lack emotion. In short, just let WATF do their thing. How about you listen to them without preconceptions.
