Description of Fallen:
The Daredevil soundtrack provided a nice boost for this previously unknown quartet from Little Rock, Arkansas. Evanescence’s songs "My Immortal" and the imposing "Bring Me to Life" are clear standouts in the film, mainly because they work so well with the dramatic, eerie undertones of the storyline. They reappear here on the band’s debut, alongside a selection of similarly brooding tracks that evoke pensive artists like Tori Amos and the Cranberries. Vocalist Amy Lee has the kind of voice that can cause weeks of insomnia, but on songs like "Tourniquet" and "Haunted" she belies the music’s sinister mood with evenhanded spirituality, thoughtfully letting some light shine through the tempest. --Aidin Vaziri
Fallen Reviews:
Worth the Wait 
2009-12-06 - I had listened to the CD when friends let me borrow it before, but having my own copy has made it even better. With a great combination of dark undertones and complex melodies, Fallen can evoke a variety of emotions from the listener. I enjoyed it for years before, and I will enjoy for many years from now.
I know something way better 
2009-10-20 - A good friend of mine told me about this Indiana hard rock band caled "Fiber" whose got a black female guitarist. He said they were similar to this, but I've got to say that I loved Fiber much more. They were just so raw and full of energy that it reminded me of why I started playing music in the first place!

A must have for music fans! 
2009-09-19 - After reading most of the reviews, there's really not much that I can add. It is a great album. the only "defect" is that it's all in the same key. Amys voice is incredible. I just bought the CD, and I popped it in when I was driving. After I heard torniquet, I realized something I wasn't prepared for. It's a christian oriented band. ususally I never like Christian music because it's too preachy. The opposite is true here. She relates her beliefs, and trials and tribulations in a way that makes the message palpable. While Creed went overboard with it's Messiah complex, Evanessence delivers the message without ramming down your throat. The band is incredibe too. I wish she would change the key she sings in once in a while, and maybe show a bit more "bad girl" stuff.
Power Music
2009-08-30 - A really great CD if you are looking for christian music with a heavy metal touch.
Simply no words!!
2009-07-31 - There are simply no words that will accurately define the musical mastery of this album. Rarely do I find musical collections in which I find no songs, no notes, no nuances that I do not like. I spent the first week or so of listening to "Fallen" tryng to figure out how to categorize it (considering my need to find a reference point to compare to). The first couple of passes, because of the tight, D tuned guitar thinking maybe this is "industrial." But then, I kept thinking that it was too complicated to be "industrial" - perhaps "post industrial." But then, the lyrics on "Fallen" are deeply and satisfyingly dark - so "Goth." But that was still not quite it... there is a strong romantic underpining, so my final category (even though most web sites say "Metal") ended up as "post industrial romantic goth." I do want to stress that there are absolutely no weak links in this recording. It's all beautiful, it's all magical, it has a syncronicity of soul very rarely found in music.
