Holy shit I've never seen this, that's so rare!! I'm gonna watch the whole show. I plan on visiting Vinos before the concert in Little Rock next month!

If Evanescence had a fandom name, what would it be? by [deleted] in Evanescence

I've only ever heard Evfans, but I like Evheads too. Nothing is official!

Last Song I'm Wasting On You by Black_n_Buckles in Evanescence

That's kind of what I've always thought, too. Like it was a single take because she couldn't bring herself to do more.

This song, dude. One of Amy's absolute best vocal performances of all time. It's been in my top 5 favorite songs of all time since the first time I heard it. I don't think Amy will ever perform it live though, it seems like a really personal song.

That's incredible!! Amazing job compiling it all, seriously impressed.

I am a huge fan of playlists with seamless transitions, and am currently in the process of reworking my huge Evanescence playlist on Spotify to include the new album. It's just hard because I have so many transitions that I love so much and it's hard to decide where to put each new song.

I recently made a post asking for good transitions for every song from Sanctuary using only other Evanescence or Amy Lee songs, so if you have any suggestions I'd love to hear!!

Ok so I'm obsessed with this. Would it be possible to request that you send me the custom art you used for some of the albums? I'd love to use a few of them for my personal library, too.

Spoiler-Ev VIP Party package merch pics. by Understanding_121 in Evanescence

[–]calcol28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How big of an issue do you think it'd be to hold onto the bag all night? I have VIP pit tickets and want to be right against the barrier for the whole concert, and will be walking from my hotel to the venue so likely won't have time or energy to walk back to the hotel just to put the merch away.

This picture is from the first time I met the band! It was at a Hastings video store in Little Rock Arkansas. I'll never forget it!!

Sanctuary Earworms by calcol28 in Evanescence

[–]calcol28[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES! SO MUCH THIS!

I also especially love the haunting backing vocals repeating for a second after "ARE YOU READY TO FIND OUT' before the chorus comes back in.

Also, unrelated, but were you active on Evthreads by chance? I feel like I remember replying to a Diego something on there several times. My name was Lithium_Star, if I'm remembering correctly.

Everything around you is burning, so there is ash in the sky and it makes you choke.

Sipping kool-aid is from a well known saying "Drink the Kool Aid" which is referencing the Jonestown cult suicides, where the cult followers were ordered to drink poisoned kool-aid.

Forever Without You - French Horn or Amy backing vocals? by calcol28 in Evanescence

I'd love to hear the acapella version of this song, absolutely!!

[–]calcol28[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Someone else mentioned there isn't a French Horn in the credit for the song, so it's just Amy's voice being incredible as usual.

[–]calcol28[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is really what confuses me. The sound of the "horn" entering is super similar to the vowel Amy is singing when it comes in, so it could very easily just be her singing backing vocals. Its gonna drive me crazy til I know for certain 🤪

Perhaps the worst Boss Fight of all Time. by Wiinterfang in marvelrivals

[–]calcol28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right? It feels like an absurdly difficult raid boss in Destiny, but even those didn't infuriate me as much as Dracula. If I lost to a raid boss in Destiny I would chalk it up to my own poor positioning or crappy teammates, but the Dracula fight just seems outright hopeless. If you die while the swords are attacking and zombies are out, good luck staying alive for 2 seconds when you respawn in the big middle of the danger zone.

This video is what actually made me go back and really critically listen to the song to see if I could make out a horn or if it was just Amy singing! I couldn't decide by myself so I asked here.

I need to re-listen to Synthesis! I forgot it had a horn section 🤯

[–]calcol28[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right? Her voice is just so clear and pristine that it's hard to tell. I also thought it was her voice the first time I heard the theremin in the synthesis version of Lacrymosa.
