Underoath


Underoath was started in 1998 with nothing but a guitarist and lead vocals. They later gained a drummer, Aaron Gillespie (also at vocals), which is the only member who has stayed with the band since the beginning. Underoath released an EP in 1999 and then another a year later. Then in 2002, the band published their first album, The Changing of Times. Two years later, they released their best and most successful album to date, They're Only Chasing Safety, which debuted at number one on the Billboard Heatseekers Chart. After another two years they released another CD, Define the Great Line. Underoath then released their Underoath 777 DVD in July of this year and are planning on releasing two more albums by the end of 2008. As always, I have put a video of them at the bottom of the page so watch it and tell me what you think.

Evanescence


Formed in 1998, Evanescence was one of the only Alternative Rock/Metal band with a female at lead vocals. This new music style was recieved extremely well, allowing them to release three more EPs and four albums. Their most recent album, The Open Door, was just released in October of 2006. I have put a video of Good Enough from The Open Door at the bottom of the page so watch it and tell me what you think.
