Evanescence has had a rocky history ever since making it big with their debut album Fallen. Lead singer and co-founder Amy Lee has been notorious for being difficult to work with, leading the band to break up and change lineups many times.
Now, Lee is the only remaining member of the group, as everyone else has left. Old members Ben Moody, Rocky Gray, and John LeCompt have joined forces with former American Idol Contestant Carly Smithson, to create the "new" group We are the Fallen.
Smithson is pretty much an Amy Lookalike, and as much as her pretty pipes want to, they can't match the power behind Lee's haunting vocals.
It just goes to show that a diva is a diva for a reason. Amy Lee was what made Evanescence become superstars, and I'm confident enough to say that this new band will not achieve even close to the same amount of success that the multi Grammy Award-Winning group had.
Let's cross our fingers and hope that maybe Lee will just screw everyone else and come out with a solo album, that shows off her golden pipes!
