Book Review: Something for everyone!
Summary: 4 Stars
I picked up this paperback while staying in Florida. It was hard to find on the shelf because it's actually very small. I paid 12 bucks for it and it was worth every penny.
I'm a knowledgeable fan of Evanescence I was very happy to find a few tidbits here and there I didn't know already. If you're like me, you're tired of reading/hearing "Ben and Amy met at summer camp" and "Bring Me To Life is about this" etc. The book had some great light reading covering the bands humble beginnings all the way thru the last stop of their tour. It's very easy to read and the pictures included are quite nice. I was hoping for some rare images, maybe like some early photos of Ben, Amy and David but no luck there. Most of the photos are recents, in black and white and a few color photos are thrown into the middle of the book.
My favorite part was the timeline in the back. Here the reader can see specific albums, track listings, locations of shows etc. Pick this book up if you like Evanescence, it's like having your own Evanescence scrapbook.
Summary of Omnibus Presents the Story of Evanescence
The full story of the meteoric rise of Evanescence, whose unique sound has rejuvintated a music scene overrun with manufactured pop and male-dominated rock. Against all odds, the band's creative brand of music made up of soaring female vocals, hard hitting guitar, and classically trained piano magically conjured up multi-platinum album sales, two Grammys and a devoted fan base world-wide. The first biography explores the teenage song writing partnership forged by lead singer Amy lee and guitarst Ben Moody in Arkansas and how they realised their musical vision years later with the album release Fallen. Details Evanescence's stong recovery from the abrupt departure of co-founder Moody mid-tour and covers the band's future plans including the much anticipated new album. Filled with scores of colour and black and white photos. Features a discography and a list of key events in the career of the band.Music Books
