This is a 4-page article about Evanescence regarding why Ben Moody left the band and future plans for both himself and the rest of the band. http://www.mtv.com/bands/e/evanescence/new...227/index.jhtml
wow i had no idea that they had so many problems! and at the Grammies he wore a wing and a fake goatee?... ok... well anyways good luck to both Ben Moody and Evanescence.
I never knew they had so many problems either. It's sad, to see a partnership go down the drain just like that.
That was actually really interesting to read, there was alot of stuff I didn't know before. Good read.
I agree with some of Ben Moody's comments. A lot of the life of a rock star is too far away from the main point: the music. I guess he didn't like some of those aspects. You might think that the personal aspect of why he left is stupid, and it kind of is with Ben saying that the band didn't like his sense of humor, but that happens to me and it really pisses me off. With that said, I disagree with Ben's strict views of music. He thinks that they make you a professional but I think it means that you're worried about getting fame and success. With freedom of speech in this country, I think you don't need to keep so strict when recording music, you can do anything you want. He seems to be turning into a poppish pimp. What the hell is he doing with Avril Lavigne. She seems to be 'Going Under' about now and I think he could have worked things out. Maybe he just needs a little break. Good luck to Evanescence and Ben Moody.
