    I still listen to Fallen every now and then - I still consider it a decent album.

    Takes me back to be a teenager, colouring myself with black eyeliner :P:o:)

    And if it weren't for them, I probably wouldn't have found Nightwish and Within Temptation.

    I think Fallen is a classic, but never bothered with any of the rest of their stuff

    their fans are pretty obsessive, when i saw them in Manchester last year people came from as far as Brazil and New Zealand to see them and went to all 4 shows. I'm a fan but there are a lot better bands in that sort of genre, even Ben Moody's 'We Are The Fallen' are nearly as good. The Open Door was my favourite album.

    Fallen is a great album but I prefer some of their earlier recordings from some of the tracks on the album (Imaginary, Tourniquet and Haunted come to mind). The Open Door was a painfully average album with very few real winners but I really liked the most recent self-titled release, it has some crackers on it with some very memorable choruses/melodies along with some superb drumming (noticed that as a drummer myself). :p







    I'd agree on the point of the fans though, which often go a long way to discrediting the band instantly for a lot of people even though it shouldn't. I like the band a fair bit but I wouldn't be arsed travelling to the UK to see them, wonder why Amy hasn't brought the band over here yet either. I'd imagine a show would sell fairly well in the likes of the Olympia or Vicar Street.

    After Fallen I lost most of my interest in them, not that they sold out or anything they just didn't sound as good. I saw them in Paris a few years ago and they were brilliant live. Wouldn't say no to catching them again, maybe Vicar Street.
