Good news- ankle not broken. Bad news- still crippled for a few weeks. LAME”

Just one thing to clarify from this article. Troy won’t be joining us on tour. He is a full-on writing member of Seether now and is getting a chance to really bloom there. They are currently in the studio working on a new album as well. We will miss him on the road, but I’m very happy for him. He’s a very kind and talented man who deserves to shine creatively.
Terry will be playing all of the guitar on our album, and when we get closer to tour we will figure out who will be the other live guitarist. Otherwise, the lineup is the same, with the addition of Will Hunt (Science).
By the way, it’s very hard to describe what the new album will sound like as a whole, you’re just going to have to hear it to really understand! It’s definitely still Ev, or I wouldn’t be calling it that. Its just ever evolving. I can’t wait to hear it finished. I’m having a lot of fun right now, its good to be back doing what I love.
love, Amy

Unreal. You guys are amazing, and I’m really excited. We originally wanted to announce the show a day or 2 before, but that really freaked the venue/promoter/booking agency out. These days they have a hard time packing out a place out even with months of promotion (not all fans are like you!). Thanks for being awesome. -Amy”
As usual, thanks to EvThreads & EvanescenceVille!

Ha. Its really nice to know so many of you miss the music and want to know when you’ll hear it again. I’ve gotten to the point where I’m working on it almost every day (night I should say). I’m in love with it. Enough to fight for it. Enough to reopen the door to a world of chaos even though it scares me. I don’t want to give away too much about what it will sound like, because so much will change before the end, but its… not what you would expect. Its definitely not happy married music, but its not like I’m dying the whole time either. Its dark, sarcastic, fun, strange, familiar and very different at the same time. It makes me feel alive and I wish I could show you right now. If you were here, at my house, I would pour you a drink and we would turn it up really loud and rock out to it, and I know you would love it. Thank you everyone who has said their lives were touched by the music. It touches my life too, and so do you, in many ways.
Somebody asked how it made me feel when someone tells me the music changed their life. It makes me feel like I’m not crazy. It feels wonderful.
Also somebody asked why I talk about blood so much, complete with quite a few lyric quotes. It made me laugh. I promise to offer slightly less blood on the next album. Slightly.
Last but not least, I often get asked about band members, the whole “is it a band, is it solo, etc” (understandably! There have been quite a few). Everyone who has ever been a part of Evanescence is a part of its story, a part of its soul. From day 1 it has been a collaborative effort and different people have contributed over the years. But it is more than just people. It’s something that has taken on its own life, it has grown, changed and become more interesting, more soulful, more honest than a perfect image will allow. The passion is what makes it live on, the obsessive focus on straight up, head first, love for the music. That is my band. And against all obstacles I’m sticking to it. See you guys soon!
love, Amy
As always, thanks to EvanescenceVille for the head-up!
