Future of Evanescence

It has officially been six years since Evanescence has last released a new album, leaving fans restless in anticipation for new music. This does not mean, however, that front-woman Amy Lee has been doing nothing during this hiatus. She has released several covers of songs and a children’s album Dream Too Much to keep fans satiated as she explores her artistic abilities. Now she’s back with another solo single entitled “Love Exists.”

The song perfectly encompasses the nature of love with a warm and delicate introduction and a powerful chorus. For the most part, the song is more on the soothing side in comparison to Lee’s works within Evanescence. The song includes elements like piano and strings to accompany Lee’s voice.

The purpose of the song is clear through the lyrics: love is complex. It can be found everywhere and in countless forms, and it isn’t always soft and easy. The chorus states that “love makes no sense” and captures that it’s an experience that we are constantly trying to understand.

Lee has hinted that there is more Evanescence content in the future but has kept the details ambiguous so as to allow herself the ability to take things step by step in this complicated stage of her career. [Source]

Evanescence Premieres New Song ‘Even In Death’

Evanescence fans can breathe a sigh of relief as the band’s publicists have confirmed that they are working on new music. As part of their upcoming box set that will be releaed on February 17th, Evanescence has released its first studio recording since 2011 titled “Even In Death.”

Frontwoman Amy Lee has said in past interviews that while they are working on their new record, it will have a more unorthodox release. “There is some new Evanescence stuff that we’re starting at, but it’s not exactly the most traditional thing . . . there’s something else that’s a little bit special and different and (that is) gonna take you down a different path that we wanna try.”

EVANESCENCE Working On New Music

According to Amy Lee‘s publicists at Mercenary Publicity, the EVANESCENCE singer and her bandmates are currently in the studio working on new music, expected later this year.

Lee hinted in an interview with AOL last fall that the band was gearing up to make new music, but that it might not take the form of a traditional album release. Lee explained: “We have some new little plan in store, but I don’t wanna give it away yet. But there is some new EVANESCENCE stuff that we’re starting at, but it’s not exactly the most traditional thing. It’s not just, ‘Okay, we’re gonna make a new album right now.’ Not that that’s not coming, but first there’s something else that’s a little bit special and different and [that is] gonna take you down a different path that we wanna try.”

Lee said a while back that she doesn’t use record sales as a gauge for success these days. “Well, you just can’t judge it the same way you used to and by the same model,” she explained. “Having people hear and connect to your song isn’t directly linked to record sales, that’s for sure. I think it may be more accurate to look at how many views on YouTube or something. I’m cool about it. We’ve had a lot of success in the past and that’s awesome. I don’t look at it like this daunting thing that we have to live up to, I look at it like this really positive, awesome thing that wouldn’t have been able to happen if we’d come out for the first time this year.”

Lee also told AOL that EVANESCENCE is “really having a good time as a band right now. Everybody’s just gelling really well together and playing really well together.”

Jen Majura Is Thankful

In a brand new interview with Greece’s Rock Overdose, EVANESCENCE guitarist Jen Majura was asked if there are plans for the band to record a new album as a follow-up to 2011’s self-titled effort. She responded: “Well, you know, I am the European part of EVANESCENCE. Amy [Lee, EVANESCENCE singer] and the [other] guys are overseas, and… To be honest, from what I can tell, we mainly focus on the touring for this year, which is, first of all South America in spring and Europe in summer… and something else. [Laughs] But I guess… I think Amy said in one of her interviews that she’s already working on new music. You never really stop working on music, because you get inspiration from every moment in your life. So it could be, like, you’re travelling in your car and then you get a great inspiration or idea, and maybe you just pick that up later — like months later or years later — or you find cool stuff on your computer which you recorded, like, gazillions of ages ago, and that might be something… So you never really stop being creative. And, from what I can tell, I think she’s already collecting and working on music. So, we’ll see.”<

Jen also talked about what it has been like to join EVANESCENCE in August 2015 as the replacement for Terry Balsamo. She said: “[To be] honest, I’ve never been, like, one of those insane EVANESCENCE fans. Of course, I knew the music — everybody does — and I love the music, and I bought the CDs, and I listened to the songs, and I sang along… But being able, and thankful for being able, to be one part of this band is… It’s hard to describe it in words, because… I do not see it as a job. Of course it’s work, but, for me, mainly, after I got to know all the guys really [well], [it’s] mainly fun, because we really get along very good. Even if we’re not on the road touring, we keep texting each other and talk on Skype and stuff, and it’s really a very, very mature, friendly relationship that we have, with a lot of respect for each other. And playing those shows… One can never understand the feeling f how it is to stand on stage together with those guys, because they’re just so talented, creative, great musicians, and we’re just having so much fun on stage, andI think the people can see that.
