New Music - Evanescence & Lacuna Coil

I took this morning off from writing and editing and have just be relaxing, listening to music on Youtube and catching up on some odds and ends projects that I have been neglecting.

Lately, my music collection has been a little lethargic. When I'm writing I want to listen to something that is really gritty, has lots of distortion and a gallop kind of tempo to it, but - of course - I'm a sucker for those moody gothic girls who like to complain ad nauseam about how miserable life is in paradise, so I started listening to Evanescence this morning and have to say - nice job Amy Lee.

I'm not a big fan of their first album, Fallen. I listened to it way too much several years ago and I just can't stomach it anymore. Plus, it was my X's CD and, well, along with Korn - NO THANKS!  But, I have been listening to Evanescence's second two albums and will tell you - it is some really good music. It will definitely be used as writing music in the near future.

Another band that I'm really excited about is Lacuna Coil. They are an Italian Goth Metal band. One of their great songs is here. Take a listen:





I absolutely love this song, and the video - with their frocks - it is perfect!
