This is just getting pathetic. You have the same 4 or 5 people bombarding how they dislike this about evergrey and that. You don't like the production, you don't like Jonas, you don't like the 7 strings, you don't like Tom's vocals in newer albums etc etc. Here's a bit of information that some of you may not want to hear. Bands play the music for themselves, not the fans, they are greatfull to have people that like what they do, but they don't care about how you want them to sound, they won't conform to how you want them to be, they jsut express themselves for who they are.
Evergrey like every other good proffesional band, its a nver ending envolving journey and each albums is a reflection of how they feel as a musician and as a band. They are going to experiement and try new things, sorry if you want any band to be a time machine of a later era but people change, perspectives change, emotions and other things in life change, get over it. Oh boohoo how they want to modernize and not have that same old poor production 80's sound. Respect them for what they do, you may not always like it, but no two persons are the same and therfore what they may like you may not always like.
Everybody's a fucking critic, if you were so great and knew so much either you would have a band that sounds better than evergrey, own your own record company, be an A&R agent, be a huge name producer or be in some proccess of making big label albums, but none of you are, that means they are doing something better that what you can do if you are some joe blow nobody. If you can do better, I would like to hear it but since none of you are in a label signed band, its obvious you can't do better. So instead of bitching, get off your high horse and just enjoy the fucking music or don't listen to it.
I am sorry to be so upfront, but Evergrey Is my favorite band alongside Dream Theater, and even though I am not all that happy with Dream Theater's direction the past 10 years, and even more recently, I still like it, I still listen to them and the new almbums becuase its a never ending of expression of how they see their life perspectives at that point when they were writing and it is interesting to peer into that. I am sorry but I can't just sit here and watch people come to a band's offical forum, especially aband I have much respect for, and bitch about hwo much you hate this and that about them. I don't care how long you have posted on the forum, if all you can do is bitch about them are you a real fan? Just listen to the music, if you donlt like it, then don't listen to it. Don't go around to that bands forum disrespecting them for expressing themselves.
And by the way if you pull your heads out of your asses you would find out that jonas is a great drummer and unlike patrick he is actaully involved in the writing proccess, his playing may not be involved as partick's but it blends in and fits with the music a hell of a lot better. And for the 7 strings are not cool retards, Evergrey has used 6 strings to tune down just as far as they are with the 7 strings, so unless you would have seen them playing 7 strings you wouldn't have even noticed, its jmsut another reason to bitch at them.
Just respect them for what they are, don't judge them on what you want them to be.
