Lacuna Coil

Sometimes I wonder why one of two bands that are similar in music and talent don't rise to success at the same rate as the other. The perfect example is Lacuna Coil & Evanescence.

I guess it comes down to exposure. Evanescence was lucky with their exposure via the Spider Man soundtrack. But why did they get the break while Lacuna Coil who has been around 4 years longer went by unnoticed. I think in America the whole music scene is blind to what is going on around the world.

Once you leave the United States music is completely different. Where the American music scene is heavily reliable on rap music, the rest of the world appears not to be. Perhaps with this whole Don Imus thing people will begin to shy away from rap music and realize that Don Imus has become a victim of rap. If rap artists can refer to people has nappy haired ho's why can't Dom Imus. But that is not the point of this post and I went off on a tangent.

I think had Lacuna Coil been based in America instead of Italy they would of rose to fame quicker then Evanescence and Christina Scabbia would of been more known then Amy Lee. The biggest problem however is the tunnel vision that Americans have when it comes to all things in general.

Don't get me wrong, I am an American. A proud American. But I keep my mind open and my ears open to new things... So I ask you now, open your mind, your eyes and your ears and check out the new video track from Lacuna Coil...
