Wake Me Up Inside

[koganbot]

What do you think of Evanescence? Angst-goth vocals on top, Rage Against The Machine accompaniment. I like it when it works, and it gets rid of Rage's most irritating element, the bad metal-rap (whereas I like the "rapper" in Evanescence's "Bring Me To Life").

I only know "Bring Me To Life" - which I think is pretty great, though it took me a little while to realise.

I have an MP3 of their latest hit (something something Sober) but haven't listened yet.

Looking back on RATM the music probably wasn't that bad.

yes, yes it was. RATM sucked on almost every conceivable level, rubbish politics, rubbish singing, rubbish everything.

I sort of assumed that my strong feelings about RATM were based on regular attendance at the kind of places that played them (despite Select raising the Britpop banner, nowhere in Oxford seemed keen to play much of it in '93 at least).
