Cheesy

Which kind of cheese? Cheddar? Swiss? Provolone? Or delectable Parmesan?

Evanescence's next single: "You f**king Slut" I actually like the name...according to a mini-interview, they changed the name because it reflects the fans as being a part of something, too. Or because of impending litigation Anyway, I really like the song. I really want to see what this band can do in the future. They apparently start touring in September and based on their interview, they should have another new song out by then.

I think the song is really great. And frankly, I think Carly has a much better voice than Amy. Amy sounds like she's gargling something. When I first heard "bring me To Life," all i ever did was bitch about how irritating her voice was. I got over it eventually, though.
Carly = UPGRADE! I hope they make an actual album and stick together. This has promise.

The song is reasonably impressive. I however disagree that Carly Smithson has a better voice than Amy Lee. The latter has a far more versatile and more "rock" like voice. You're obviously referring to Lee being influenced by Eddie Vedder's angsty warbling vocals with the "gargling comment". Ha. That just makes her a more unique female singer, they're are few female alt-rock/post-grunge vocalists around and none are close to Amy Lee. Thats for sure.
Anyway, I could see this song doing some potiental damage on Alt if supported.

Amy is furious somewhere. Carly is really good but the can't touch Amy.

The title of this thread should now be changed to "Bury Me Alive (We Are The Fallen)".

Musically this song is fine but honestly Carly sounds to be trying way too hard. It's not impressive in the least, feels far too copy cat. I realize these guys like female singers and they probably fit best with the goth/rock sound they portray but its just sounds like Evanescence light.

I honestly don't understand the hype over Amy's voice. I never rated her for her singing, really. It was always her songwriting I was impressed by. It's like when people say that the Beatles were great singers, it makes me snort. It's like... really. They were nothing special vocally, or even stylistically. They wrote great songs, and they sang them.
To me, Carly has powerhouse vocals. Amy couldn't really belt it out or hit the really high notes. I always found myself wanting more from her at the bridge of "My Immortal," but she doesn't really have the voice to like, belt it out, or get louder. And I can't imagine Amy attempting to hit that note Carly hit at the end of the song. I don't know. It just seems like it's more about Carly being "new" than about Amy actually having a better voice.

Wow. Carly's voice is very very similar to Amy's. Honestly, if I didn't know who was singing, I would have definitely thought it was her. I can't really decide who is better after just hearing this one song. I expect this song to be huge just because of the resemblance to the former Evanescence members and the similarity.

The band changed their name to "We Are The Fallen" because they received a cease and desist letter from one of the older bands that was named "The Fallen."

So is there an adds date on this yet? Nothing on FMQB. I'd expect one in the near future though.

Well, it hasn't been pushed for a start. Needs an adds date at the least.

I realize that. But the song has been "out" for over 2 months now - I'm not sure what they're waiting for.

Oh, I thought you were pointing out the fact that radio wasn't playing it. But yes don't know what they're waiting for. Is rather odd really.

Since it's been bumped, I finally remembered to check this out. The verdict, please: Musically this song is fine but honestly Carly sounds to be trying way too hard. It's not impressive in the least, feels far too copy cat. I realize these guys like female singers and they probably fit best with the goth/rock sound they portray but its just sounds like Evanescence light. That about sums it up for me.

They put out that song as something of a teaser, but people assumed that they'd been together for months because they had certain release plans and everything when that first article came out. However, that was not the case. That was the first song they put together, but they're actually currently writing together for an album. There's a rumor that they've signed with a major...but they're keeping things mum at the moment. So at least for now, they haven't pushed this song to radio at all and it may be a while before new material surfaces.
