Evanescence_vs_Equilibrium-Tourniquet_by_LexUnix

Equilibrium (2002)

In a futuristic world, a strict regime has eliminated war by suppressing emotions: books, art and music are strictly forbidden and feeling is a crime punishable by death. Cleric John Preston (Bale) is a top ranking government agent responsible for destroying those who resist the rules. Whe he misses a dose of Prozium, a mind-altering drug that hinders emotion, Preston, who has been trained to enforce the strict laws of the new regime, suddenly becomes the only person capable of overthrowing it.

Evanescence

Band Members: Amy Lee (vocals, piano), John LeCompt (guitar), Terry Balsamo (guitar), Will Boyd (bass) and Rocky Gray (drums).
Co-founders Ben Moody (ex-guitarist) and Amy Lee (vocals) met at a camp in 1994, where they began working together on music.
Before choosing Evanescence, the band went by several short-lived names, including "Stricken" and "Childish Intentions".
Prior to Ben Moody's exit in 2003, he and Amy Lee would write alone and then put their song ideas together. Only one song that was written by both of them physically in the same room was ever recorded. The track was called "Catherine", and was scrapped from the album "Origin" before its release in 2000.
Most of the songs on the 2003 release of Fallen were written from 2001-2002. Some tracks are from even earlier writing sessions, the oldest being My Immortal, whose first recording was made in 1997.
When guitarist Terry Balsamo entered in 2004, his new band members referred to him as "Banana Baggins" or "T Baggins".
Against the band's wishes, three songs were removed from the final Fallen track listing before its release. Two of these tracks ("Missing" and "Farther Away" are available as B-sides and bonus cuts to import singles and albums, while "Breathe No More" is availible on the soundtrack to the movie "Elektra".
The band was told that adding a rapper permanently to the line-up was their only chance at finding success.
Their first concert was in December of 1998.
Debut album "Fallen" is 6x platinum

    Hey, stop fighting over here!!! critics identify evanescence as some form of gothic band.The band's official website classed their musical genre simply as 'rock'.They have nothing to do with punk! But they are not metal as well,so MrGhost6662 is right, People on utube use to compare EVERYONE WITH EVERYONE,just to get views!

    PS : I dont really think that evanescence can even be compared to another band,They are clearly the best !

  • @MrGhost6662

    it's ok, you had a good reason. =)

  • @Shigofumi7163 i wrote that comment referring to the evan fans-video makers and then i thought that you might be in that age, i checked it and you are ,so soz about that as i said it came randomly

  • @MrGhost6662

    what age, and sorry i didn't know, I was born a year after, in 1997. We didn't have a computer until 2002, and we have only been listening to rap and country.

  • @Shigofumi7163 no offense on the age it just came randomly

  • @Shigofumi7163 my guess would be that they are 13 years old kids that just learn how to use the windows movie maker :Pand then they think : wait i got a youtube account ! i must get views ! and so they creating them ahahahahahaaa

  • @MrGhost6662

    I don't see how evanescence and linkin park can be related with each other, but I think they do that....... honestly, I don't know either.

  • @Shigofumi7163 soz then i was kinda rude , is just the way evanescence fans create all those vids , and as i look to the right of my screen i see evanescence vs nightwish , vs linkin park , vs flyleaf.... it's like comparing rnb with electro or something ,totally different and incomparable...why they do that ????

  • @MrGhost6662

    sorry, I was just curious, I never look at the date it was commented.

  • @Shigofumi7163 Nightwish is a symphonic metal band from Kitee, Finland, formed in 1996 by songwriter and keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen... bla bla bla go to wiki and search it , don't ask stupid questions... anyway why did you reply to a comment 1 year old ???
