12 Stones

Fri Mar 25, 2005 9:12 pm

I notice that there isn't really a topic for 12 Stones. 12 Stones was signed by Wind-Up, the same Record Company as Evanescence, after six or seven months of forming. Paul McCoy, their lead singer, was asked to do a guest voal in Evanescence's debut single, 'Bring Me to Life'.

After he did this, their popularity rose with their release of their debut album, '12 Stones', in 2002. They then did three singles from their album: Broken, The Way I Feel, and Crash. In 2004, they then released another album entitled, 'Potter's Field', and yet another single from that album, called 'Far Away'. The song 'Photograph' landed on the Elektra Original Sound Track along with Evanescence's Fallen B-side unreleased track, "Breathe No More'.

If you would like to view any of thier videos, four of them can be viewed at http://www.launch.com. However, Photograph can only be viewed at their website, which can be found here:

I'm not really a fan of their music. I listened to a version of "Bring Me To Life" without them and I like that version better.

You must mean the Bliss Mix, correct?

I admit, they aren't the best band, but they're pretty okay. Their songs have their 'ups and downs' as you might call it.

I have their CD, and it's pretty good. I've only listened to a few times, but there's one song on there that really gets me. Don't know what its called, but I really like it. "The Way I Feel" is pretty good too.

My favourite songs from them are:
Broken
The Way I Feel
Stay
Fade Away
The Last Song
Photograph
EDIT: I remembered! It's Bitter!

I love the video for Photograph. All those leaves falling on the floor, I wouldn't want to be that guy when his mother comes home. XD

lol

His appearance in Far Away and Photograph looks so different from his old look. Even when he had blonde hair he still looked the same but afterwards he looks so, umm... different. The only time I can actually see the 'old' him is rarely in those videos... okay, that sounded really weird. o.o

I've never actually heard anything by the band themselves, I've always been meaning to though. :/

I thought that version sucked, it lacks the punch it has with Paul McCoy. o_O

That version is too rare; I've never heard it. Evil rare Bliss Mix song.

And about the Photograph video - LOL.
