This is the official Evanescence website! Just like the Digipak analysed in previous posts, the colour scheme is black and yellow, which seems to be Evanescenece's recurring colour theme. These colours represent an old emo/gothic 'look' that corresponds well with the bands ambiance and mood. The websites colour scheme and design is appropriate for the target audience as it follows the typical conventions of emo/gothic bands and artists.
The font used in the website is once again very old fashioned (Victorian/Georgian) which is a common font to associate with gothic themed texts as gothic styles were introduced in society in the Georgian era. However, our artists not only targets emo and goth social groups but also targets indie groups, which would not appreciate the full gothic style on Christina Perri's website as tey do with Evanescenece's website. Therefore, we need to mix goth/emo/indie together to make the media text appropriate for the target age group.
