So I noticed this band doesn't have a thread here; yet I've also noticed there has been users who mentioned them in the WAYLTRN thread and I figured maybe I'd make one.
When I first heard them; I heard their 3rd and 4th albums because of Dan Chandlers joining with Disturbed members to create "Fight Or Flight". So naturally; I thought they only had one singer (Dan Chandler) but I found out that they had a previous singer before him as well. Now maybe this is where the opinions differ; but I personally don't like pre-Chandler Evans Blue because of Kevin Matisyn's voice. Which singer do you guys prefer? I also feel like their guitarist (Vlad Tanaskovic) is very low-key in this band; his solos sound like they'd be great if he chose to do more of them and stand out more.
Q's
1. Preferred Singer? Dan or Kevin? Dan
2.Favorite Album? Graveyard of Empires
3.Favorite Song? Destroy The Obvious
4.How did you become aware of them? Through Dans collaboration with Disturbed members
5.Is there anything you'd like them to do differently? More solos from Vlad.

Re: EVANS|BLUE
I've only heard part of Graveyard. But I like the half-album or so that I heard. He has some cool vocal melodies going on.

Re: EVANS|BLUE
1. Personally, I liked Kevin a lot because he had a unique voice, so I'd say Kevin.
2. The Melody and the Energetic Nature of Volume
3. Fear
4. A friend of mine in AIT (Army training) let me listen to them, back when they only had one album. Played Cold (But I'm Still Here) for me and I was hooked from there.
5. Bring back Kevin... but it won't happen.

Re: EVANS|BLUE
Matisyn's voice can be annoying in the long run.. Still, I always liked this unexpected melancholy he can deliver.
It particularly stands out in Parabelle - I find it may more interesting than Evans Blue as a whole.

I know that this question may not really be related to the question by the OP but does anyone have any further updates on their new album they are working on?

We will officially be hitting the studio September 5 to start recording our next album. Stay tuned for updates, pics and videos of the entire process. Until then, enjoy the rest of your summer, EB Nation and prepare for a heavy Fall. We've missed you.

Re: EVANS|BLUE
I like the old Evans Blue with Kevin Matisyn better. I first got into them when I heard Cold (But I'm Still Here) on the radio. When the self-titled album came out with Dan I gave it a shot but didn't like it at all. I haven't even heard Graveyard. I guess I should at least check it out.
