The Haunted, etc. guitarist/influencer Ola Englund has weighed in on the similarities between a riff found in Evanescence‘s latest single “Who Will You Follow” and his own 2020 solo track “The Sun & The Moon“.

Ultimately he noted that the tempos are nearly identical, and both riffs possess similar traits, but decided that the riff in general was too generic for him to claim ownership to begin with.
