yeah i heard they were christians but amy lee tried to deny it. i would find it hard to follow a band who profess to be goth but weren't actually involved in the scene if you see what i mean. image over content indeed ATG!AndyTheGoth wrote:Purple Light wrote:Goth wise, I personally can't stand bands like Evenscence & HIM (according to the press nowadays they are classed as goth anyway)
What do the rest of U think abouth this stuff?
On the subject of "Evenesence" its a little know fact that the band members - of which there are only 2 - Amy Lee and Ben Moody - both who hold strong "Christian" beliefs.
Amy is also quoted as saying that she only wears the "Goth Gear" on stage for the "Image" and does not follow the "Lifestyle". Another shining example of "Image" over "Content"

Image over Content never hurt many of the 80 "Cok Rock" bands.
such as Poison, Motley Crew and Guns and Roses IMHO
On the other hand the Content over Image award must go to Type O Negative

HIM being compared to the M ission? Oh Andy....no no no. First off Ville is much prettier than Wayne. Much MUCH prettier.
As for the music there is absolutely NO comparison. The sounds and lyrics are totally different.
HIM being for the 20 somethings...don't even go there. I'm more EBG than you, and I'd do HIM anyday. And I do, going in now for Razor Blade Romance!
This one's just for you Andy.
Ok - Please dont take offence but my next comment is for the "Beautiful Ladies" of "Heartland"
Do you like "Ville" of HIM because he can sing or for other more 'physical' reasons?
My opinion (of which I am of course Wrong ) is that you all fancy him - because he is a very pretty boy who has those lovely lips and looks great in makeup.
Now I have heard HIM and they are OK. Their fist bit hit - a cover of Chris Issacs "Wicked Game" is very good - but not a patch on the original IMHO.
So come on girls - whats it to be Looks or Talent or vice-versa?

LMAO
At Barman Blast and ATG.
Andy Beauty and the Beast. I knew you would like that photo.
HIM Suck???? LOL
Ok talent vs looks. I think they go hand in hand. And it think its all subjective. Emily our Ruler has sent me some very tasty pics of Mr. Justin. HOT as hell, their sound isn't what I like. PFurs I love, but Richard Butler doesn't make my day. Don't get me wrong, I have loved that band for over 20 years, they, not TSOM are my all time #1 favorite band of all time. Simply for the way they sound.
HIM...I like both for looks and sound. Very rare. Only 2 others do that for me. Z and Andrew.
That's just my preference in sound and men.

i have to say that i go with the music first in respect to almost all bands...
the only exception *that i can think of at the moment* is the Mish...i really don't have a clue why i like the mish...it's certinally not the looks...and in some cases it's not the music either...maybe it's the feeling of renewed youth...
i know...i'm a hopeless case!
