Monday, August 8th, 2011

The newest episode of No Reservations with Anthony Bourdain piqued my interest primarily because Josh Homme, frontman of Queens of the Stone Age/Them Crooked Vultures, was the special guest on the episode.

Watch: Evanescence – “What You Want”

Monday, August 8th, 2011

For any remaining Evanescence fans out there, here's a performance of their new single, "What You Want." It's off of their forthcoming self-titled album which will be in stores on October 11th. If you'd prefer a studio version of the track, that's down below. Enjoy....I guess.

Up top, starting at 17:44 thanks to the YouTube account Serpephone, you can check out the entire performance… Read More
