Music reviews of Going Under

Music Review: Amy Lee and Ben Moody on a couple of acoustic tracks
Rating: 5 Stars

But what makes this particular CD-single so attractive is that it has a couple of acoustic songs by Evanescence, harkening back to days when it was just Amy singing and Ben Moody playing guitar. Well, he is gone now and when you hear these songs in concert they have all been given a Goth metal makeover (if you caught Evanescene doing "My Immortal" on Letterman last night and caught how the band comes in with crashing guitars at the end instead of the synthetic strings we hear on the "Fallen" album, or have caught them on their recent concert tour, then you know exactly what I mean). Here we simply have Moody on guitar while Lee shows off her pipes, first on Moody plays the an acoustic version of "Going Under" and then a cover of Nirvana's "Heart Shapped Box," done for a radio station.

I have to think that the next Evanescence album is going to be more in the style of their concert performances and less like what went quad-platinum on "Fallen." So for those fans who like the simpler and cleaner versions of these songs, having an acoustic version of "Going Under" will be something special. You can also find acoustic version of "Bring Me to Life" and "My Immortal" (a guitar version on the latter) that are well worth the tracking down as well.
