Does anybody have any websites that could help me establish wether or not Evanescence is a christian band?

Question

I'm looking for any websites that could have like quotes or interviews with Amy Lee or band websites.

Answer 1

Here's what they said on wikipedia.com...
Christian controversy
Originally promoted in Christian stores, the band eventually made it clear they did not want to be considered as part of the Christian rock genre. Wind-up Records chairman Alan Meltzer issued a press release in April 2003 asking for the band's music to be removed from Christian retail outlets.[27]

During a 2003 interview with Entertainment Weekly, Ben Moody stated, "We're actually high on the Christian charts, and I'm like, What the f--k are we even doing there?"[28] This seemed to go against earlier sentiments by Moody that "We hope to express in our music that Christianity is not a rigid list of rules to follow..." and also "The message we as a band want to convey more than anything is simple—God is Love."[29] This has led to criticism of the band within the Christian community, even more so given that the band themselves approved of the plan to distribute Fallen to the Christian market.[30] Terry Hemmings, CEO of Christian music distributor Provident, expressed puzzlement at the band's about-face, saying "They clearly understood the album would be sold in these [Christian music] channels."[31] Ex-vocalist and keyboardist David Hodges eventually left the band over the controversy, with other members stating that he had been pulling them in more of a Christian direction than Lee and Moody were comfortable with.

When asked by Billboard in 2006 if Evanescence was a "Christian band," Amy Lee responded, "Can we please skip the Christian thing? I'm so over it. It's the lamest thing. I fought that from the beginning; I never wanted to be associated with it. It was a Ben thing. It's over."[

Answer 2

There is nothing about christianity on their website.

This is from their own website: Originally hailing from Little Rock, Arkansas, the band's evolving sound - a nearly mystical marriage between rock, goth and classical - was informed by a curious duality. Lee, who spent nine years studying classical piano, explains, "When I was in high school I listened to a lot of heavy bands. Both genres are intricate, complex types of music that are very dramatic, and I'm naturally drawn to that."

Answer 3

Amy Lee has stated that the band is not a christian band. The only two songs I think might be religious are Tourniquet and Whisper. No website referances though, sorry.

Answer 4

No, Evanescance is in simple terms too dark to be a Christian band. no longer that i'll label them. yet they have been on a Christian rock CD because of the fact "deliver Me To existence" could be tied to God. Supposivly, Amy Lee follows no faith

Answer 5

I can tell you without looking at any sites that Evanescence isn't a christian band.

You could try google though if you wanted to look yourself. Just google Evanescence.
