I suppose that its generic for Evergrey, but if this is generic, then what's on the radio? I think, while it's not necessarily one of Evergrey's greatest songs, this song rocks pretty hard.
Oh and for the other below me, all their albums are themed. Religion.. stuff like that. And hell ya they tour the US!!! I saw them with Iced Earth and Children of Bodom xD!!!!
only another probe that to make good music isn't necesary make a imposibble note combination , their sound is awesome, maybe the best that i'd listened but this album is more comertial than the other master pieces like solitude dominance tragedy, in search of truth or recreation day .
With this video is how I started listening to Evergrey. Didn't know the great band they are until then. All of their albums are excellent. Can't wait for their new material!
Do you people know what "selling out" is? No. I'm sure you don't. You just call it "selling out" when a band isn't doing the same shit over and over again because you like it. Any musician, including myself, would be bored to suicide to have to do the same shit on a different album. That's all I have to say about that.
Evergrey is a relly cool band that both play great music and write great lyrics! I agree that this isen't as progressive as the old albums but still...sellouts?! nah!!
I wouldn't say it's my favourite album, but all this 'sell-out' stuff is rubbish. Surely it's different. It's heavier than their last few albums, but in fact, the heaviness is reminiscent of their first few releases, especially Solitude.Dominance.Tragedy.
This song isn'nt that bad and overall the album is prety good it's not as good as recreation day wich is their best album or inner circle or serch of Truth but it's still good.
Whether we like it or not, they've gone to a more poppy and accessible sound, but if you look back, they've been moving in this direction over the last few albums. Each one seems to be more stripped down than the last. I still love the band, but I definitely prefer the older stuff.
p.s. What is so different about this "story version"? It looks exactly the same to me.
IMO Evergrey didn't sell out. The song is not as progressive as the old stuff and the whole album is catchier and not as - well, let's use the word progressive again - as the old albums. But still, the album kicks ass, IMO. It's just a nice piece of music, and I have a lot of respect for Evergrey and especially for Mr. Englund.
Agree that recreation day is their best.. but this album is pretty kick ass minus a couple of songs... "Lost" is extremely well written and catchy and could easily be a top 40 song. IMO, "sell outs" are pretty much what ever band dreams of.
I hate it when bands stray from the sound that made there fans love them in the first place this is nothing like in search of truth or the inner circle...I think this album was made to put them on headbangers ball or something. I mean I still like them but just not this.
I think that you guys should realise that it´s impossible for a musician to make the same sound over & over again. That´s the real sell out. Diferent times bring diferent feelings and diferent inspiration. Evergrey knows better than anyone what´s their own sound. Just try to think of the hours taken to make this record and realise that´s impossible to be a sell out. Personally i think this is a damn good album.
It's cool that youre into prog at your age, but you've got a lot to learn. The whole point of the genre is to progress and not sound the same on every album. This is not my favorite Evergrey album either, but they definately did not sell out.
