Evanescence drummer is modest

And by modest, I mean not at all. Evanescence drummer, Will Hunt, was recently interviewed and asked of his opinion on the band’s new material. Apparently, surprise surprise, he thinks it’s great. An excerpt of what he says can be found below.

“Honestly, I think it’s amazing. I think she’s taken some real big risks. As artists, I think it’s important that we challenge ourselves to find new ground. If you look at any band in history who’s done really well, they continue to reinvent themselves and be relevant. It’s always going to sound like Evanescence, ’cause it’s Amy Lee singing, but the vehicle for that voice can be different and still be Evanescence. I think people are gonna be pleasantly surprised, because all the really cool elements, the things people love about the Evanescence of the past are still there. But there are new colors in the pattern. There’s a lot of cool new things going on, both electronically and futuristically. I think she’s doing something that’s very special and hasn’t been done before. I’m a supporter, I think it’s killer. It’s really good.”

He’s probably lying though, because “great” and “Evanescence” together are a complete paradox. Besides, apart from being Black Label Society’s drummer, who is anyways? He must be like the 34th drummer for Evanescence.
