位於美國中西部民風極為保守純樸的小岩鎮，一度被視為美式哥德搖滾最終的復活聖地。
或許是因為Ben Moody與Amy Lee以其帶有激進性格的音樂特色，奮力穿越至音樂光譜
中黑暗的那一頭的多分努力，造就了此類音樂更形折衷且更易為大眾所接受的主因。
伊凡塞斯在探討黑暗、愛情與絕望等人性議題上，亦有他們柔性的訴求，但他們堅持的是一個真實存在的原則，絕非抽象。「整張專輯的概念是要讓人們相信，在所有悲傷，痛苦與生命高低起伏的過程中，沒有人是寂寞的。」
儘管團名會讓人聯想到"忽然消失"這個名詞，但來自阿肯色州小岩城的「伊凡塞斯 Evanescence」，
他們的音樂可不是軟腳蝦。
在嗓音超獨特的女主唱Amy Lee領軍下，這才華洋溢的四人組合之首張專輯「落入凡間 Fallen」，是一張充滿情感，卻又靈性飄逸的作品。
這位現年才二十歲的女主唱說：我們絕對是一個搖滾團，但不一樣的是，我們的音樂是擁有史詩般戲劇化的「黑暗搖滾」。
這個禮拜一直在聽Evanescence
這個團的主唱是個女生,卻有著很有力量且具穿透力的聲音
讓人不知不覺進入他們的世界
雖然唱著黑暗的歌詞,卻感覺不到這是沈淪
反而有種覺醒的意義
我一直很在乎一首歌的歌詞
旋律讓人朗朗上口,詞義令人印象深刻
比較之下我會比較喜歡他們第一張Fallen
他們在MV中營造出來的鬼魅氣氛相當成功
不曉得為什麼,主唱Amy的聲音,好像從地獄來的,很深沈很空靈

How can you see into my eyes
like open doors.
Leading you down into my core
where I've become so numb.
Without a soul
my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home.
(Wake me up.
Wake me up inside.
I can't wake up.
Wake me up inside.
Save me.
Call my name and save me from the dark.
Wake me up.
Bid my blood to run.
I can't wake up.
Before I come undone.
Save me.
Save me from the nothing I've become.)
Now that I know what I'm without
you can't just leave me.
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life.
[Chorus]
Bring me to life.
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside.
Bring me to life.
Frozen inside without your touch,
without your love, darling.
Only you are the life among the dead.
All of this sight
I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark
but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a 1000 years it seems.
I've got to open my eyes to everything.
Without a thought
Without a voice
Without a soul
Don't let me die here
There must be something wrong.
Bring me to life.
