Evergrey have managed to create a nice blend of styles but what all the songs have in common is a nice emotional and dark atmosphere combined with just the right amount of complexity, yet they are always catchy as hell and are guaranteed to haunt you for a long time.
Although I am still missing "Monday Morning Apocalypse" from my collection I can't wait 'till I get my hands on it... any comments on that album are more than welcome, although this is a thread for all discussions on evergrey and their music.

Swedish metallers EVERGREY have officially parted ways with bassist Fredrik Larsson ? only nine months after he was recruited as the replacement for Michael Håkansson. A replacement bassist has not yet been announced. Håkansson has since joined fellow Swedes HAMMERFALL. On Metal archives it says that Larsson quit Evergrey to retorun to HammerFall, but on Blabbermouth it says that Hakansson joined HF...strange. Edit: From HF official site, Fredrik Larsson is the new HF bassist. BTW Im very sorry cause I cant go to Romania, day before Evergrey in Bucuresht, Blackmore's Night is in belgrade...

I just got their "A Night to Remember" and the performance is just amazing, but the band does seen really nervous because of all the money they expend on that concert (on the box it says that the money was enough to produce an album and a half)

Written by 4look4rd on 20.07.2007 at 16:49 I was listening to A Night To Remember last night with my band mate Mike, on our way back from the bar and he pointed out that while Evergrey is an amazing band, and very talented, their live performance is not as tight as the studio work. Going back and listening to the album again, I have to agree with him. It is great live album, but it is very loose. Like "Mark of the Triangle", one of my favorite songs, sounds a bit sloppy at some points.

I hope the next album is much better than Monday Morning Apocalypse to be honest.

Written by Guest on 19.10.2007 at 16:59 Yeah, and that is by far their worst album. Check out The Inner Circle, Recreation Day and In Search of Truth fpr some really amazing work.

Written by 4look4rd on 27.10.2007 at 00:02 I agree with this. His vocals are really outstanding and it stands out. Other people have different opinions, its only natural though.

I've missed the last Evergrey concerts here, but the next time in Mars I'll probably be there! And Brainstorm is opening, great!

Written by Guest on 30.11.2007 at 19:52 Definately. MMA is their worst album in my opinion. and quite bad for their standards. You are absolutely right.

MMA is not good but also not that bad, it is quite a standard album in the prog metal scene. But I agree, it is not up to Evergrey's quality.

Written by Guest on 02.12.2007 at 22:11 Are you saying it wasn't a Prog Metal album because the songs were soft?
