Evanescence VS Lacuna Coil

Firstly, I voted for Cristina Scabbia a long time ago, and I think, as the creator of this thread, you should be able to see that. Secondly, you have 1407 posts, 60% of which are just chatter. Thirdly, I never yap. Who am I to you? Some acquaintance? The concept of respect seems to be unknown, not just to me... I simply pointed out to the creator of the thread that if we're comparing, we should look at three groups. Want some arguments? Here you go. Let's compare them based on all parameters. 1) Musicians in the group. a1) Vocal abilities of the vocalists. Cristina Scabbia - 7.5. She has a voice, not too strong, but it's there. However, her pop-like intonations turn Lacuna Coil's songs into sentimental ballads. Mix the voice of Madonna with the voice of Liv Kristine from early Theatre of Tragedy, and you'll get the voice that Scabbia sings with. Such a voice is unacceptable for serious gothic music. Cristina herself says: "We consider our voices as two completely different instruments - no more, no less. When a new song appears, we focus on the situation. Whose voice fits the music better, that's the one who sings. We don't have any other scheme." What does this say? It says that Lacuna Coil is difficult to imagine without the duet of voices, and that she, on her own, doesn't represent much. But there are also positive reviews... The vocalist of Lacuna Coil has quite decent vocal abilities. Her voice isn't monotonous or screeching like a siren. It's just pleasant, clear, and melodic. It's amusing to hear her Italian accent in English songs. It creates some kind of unique charm. My personal opinion is that Lacuna Coil isn't entirely gothic, so I won't agree with the first statement. But still, sometimes, especially at concerts, she "overdoes it," meaning she sings higher than she should. Amy Lee... Tomorrow, I'll continue with the next pair.
