Evanescence, being corrupted Options

[JlIaTMK]

So, how is it like when it feels like your favorite band is slowly being corrupted by mainstream?
It feels like crap. I used to listen to Evanescence from a LONG time ago, and now, ever since my immortal, i see it going mainstream, and not only that, the preppy people are crowding to it like glue.
I've also noticed that there is like, what, 5 or 6 Evanescence skins? Quite a bit for just one band.
Eh, also, I HATE, absolutely HATE, how these people that are just approaching their music because of its mainstream factor are like OmGZORsZ I ToTalIYZ LoVeSZ <3333333333333333333333333333333333333333333 TheMSZ.
Yes, that pisses me off so badly, mainly because these people don't know what Evanescence is truly singing about and are just listening to it because its a newer mainstream band. No, I'm not talking about new people that actually understand what their music is about, either.
I see how this can benefit the band and make them more money, but I know that its heart-breaking for many of the old fans to see their favorite music being corrupted.

I hate it that everyone is like "OmGZoRZ! EvAnescence is so awesome! I'm lyke their biggest fan!" And then I'll ask them to name one song off of Origin and they'll look at me and go "Origin? Whats that?" God, I hate it! But hun, there are the true fans. I know a place, that I'm sure you might already be a member of, where there is nothing but people like you and I who know more than Fallen and know that Amy isn't named Evanescence (this one always cracks me up.) and that there is John, Rocky, Terry and Will in the band too. Go to evboard.com, you'll love it there. My username is Rayburn...you can PM me any time!

PS. Love the "Lies" lyrics in your sig. I adore that song.

I totally agree. I've been joined to evboard since December >.<. Yes, I'm pretty young on it but :P. Eh, we will prevail in the end ;p. My name is Jliatmk there haha. I'm still under the moderating queue haha.

By the way, a lot of the people that commented on this seem to be newer mainstream Evanescence followers.
