Multiplatinum band who Evanescence has been compared to in terms of sound especially for Evanescence’s first hit single “Bring Me to Life”. Also, mentioned as an inspiration for the band.
When Evanescence were in the studio recording Fallen, Linkin Park were also in the same building recording their second album, Meteora.
In an interview with Revolver magazine in 2004, lead singer, Chester Bennington, talked about meeting Evanescence in the studio, and how Amy explained to him that their label tried to make them sound like Linkin Park;[1]

I met [Evanescence] in the studio when they were recording their record. We were both recording in the same building. I was talking to [Amy Lee]. And she was nice. She said, 'We're having these problems. Everyone at our label wants us to be you.' I told her that's lame. She agreed. She said they went as far as wanting to ask Mike [Shinoda] to do a part on a song. She said, 'We knew he wouldn't do it.' So they're running around trying to get guys in other bands to do it like he would. ' I told her to be herself and tell the label to put it where the sun doesn't shine. But the next thing I heard was 'Bring Me to Life' with a guy that sounded just like Mike. It was a little upsetting. |

Chester Bennington died on July 20, 2017 after committing suicide. Evanescence's song, Imperfection, is partly inspired by the event as Amy explained that the song is about "for all the people we’ve lost, all the people who we could lose, to suicide and depression."
