My daughter died a year ago. Only 25, from heart failure. Evanescence is her fav band. I was able to find "The Angel of Grief" on an urn for her ashes. It's a miniature replica of the original. Beautiful! As well as a tribute to this album cover and EV.

+Angel of Darkness 040 (Crimson) Thank you, Angel. My daughter used "CrimsonRegret" in her email. The pain for losing a daughter or son never leaves, unlike usual grief that gradually gets better over time. As in the song "Understanding"...can't fight it all away, can't hope it all away, can't scream it all away, IT JUST WON'T GO AWAY!

I'm no longer an emo teenager but this is still my fave Evanescence era. Maybe it's because what I mostly listened as a teenager and that's provided some residual influence, but after Ben left I really didn't feel Evanescence any more. YMMV.

One word. Understanding. That song totally blows everything evanescence has ever made out of the water for me personally. Makes you wonder what kind of band they could have turned out to be if they explored more of what they did on that song as well as "Lies" on origin? my guess is they would have had a sound that would have been even more awesome than how their sound is now.

It's been 25 years since this was released! And to this day, it does sound unexpectedly good. The only thing this EP lacked was more money for better mastering and a little bit of promotion. The amount of emotions and pure creativity put into it makes it really stand out from everything they have done later. Nobody can deny how interesting it is. The part of Solitude that also is the outro - The End hits every time. Imaginary and My Immortal in this version sound so raw and sincere it kicks you in the stomach. Understanding stands out as a gem in it's own right, while still brilliantly serving as an emotional coup de grace of the record. The only song that has in fact aged kinda poor is Exodus, but lets be frank - even Amy Lee doesnt like to talk about this song. All in all it's still creatively cohesive piece of alternative music, painted with many shades of gloom, melancholy, sadness. Self-exploratory, bold, sometimes depressive and moody. Other times very at peace with self and everything around at the same time. I'm giving it solid 7,5/10 with a heart icon as every few years I like to give it a listen.
