The Open Door-Evanescence
The goth-inspired Arkansas rock band Evanescence, with their Linkin Park-meets-Tori Amos sound backed by chugging guitars, easily made it to the top of the charts in 2003 with their debut album, Fallen. Singer/pianist Amy Lee and guitarist/songwriter Ben Moody formed the band at the end of the '90s, eventually landing a deal with Wind-Up Records, the same label as Creed. Evanescence managed to pick up two Grammys (Best New Artist and Best Hard Rock Performance) for the 2003 awards. During a European tour late that same year, however, Moody abruptly left the group over apparent creative differences. With the band split apart, it seemed like Evanescence were doomed to be a short-lived phenomenon (which was kind of appropriate since their name literally means "something gradually vanishing from sight")., 百拇医药
