I thought it was time for a new look. I created this layout. It is very much different then my former ones that I have made and I hope that you all like it. Please look out for more updates on the site. I will be trying to add more to the gallery and media sections soon!

P.S: Keep a look out for a new site I am planning on opening. Evmortal will be back!

Thanks to Evanescenceville for pointing this to us:

Evanescence singer Amy Lee is over the drama.

“There’s a lot of bullshit related to that band name for me,” Lee tells SPIN.com, “but I’m ready to move past it. I’ve realized that Evanescence is who I am.”

She’s not kidding about the bullshit. Since their 2003 Grammy-winning, multi-platinum debut Fallen rocketed the Little Rock, AR, natives to world stardom, the group have been plagued by in-fighting and lineup changes, beginning with the departure of co-founder Ben Moody. In a very public 2006 spat, the last remaining original members — guitarist John LeCompt and drummer Rocky Gray — left or were fired, and soon joined Moody to form We Are the Fallen with ex-American Idol finalist Carly Smithson on vocals.

Evanescence is also moving on. The goth-rock outfit will release their first album since 2006 this September, with a new lineup — and a new sound.

Lee, guitarist Terry Balsamo, bassist Tim McCord, drummer Will Hunt, and the band’s newest member, producer, songwriter, and studio whiz Will “Science” Hunt (that’s right — the band has two guys named “Will Hunt”), are recording the album in a New York studio with producer Steve Lillywhite (U2, Rolling Stones). And they’re taking Evanescence’s characteristically heavy, goth-rock sound in an electro-pop direction inspired by Lee’s favorite bands: Massive Attack, Bjork, and Portishead.

“The album has sounds that are distorted, changed, reversed,” says Lee. “There’s a lot of that fun stuff going on.”

Below, she tells SPIN.com more about the record, her former bandmates, and her favorite hobby: painting.

Hey guys,
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

On Monday, February 22nd, Evanescence started recording their upcoming third album in New York with famed producer Steve Lillywhite. Singer Amy Lee tells Rolling Stone the new disc is going to be a mix of “sarcastic aggression” that will show a new side of the band — a distinct electro influence. “A lot of bands I’ve always been inspired by are just coming into play a little more,” says Lee, citing the future-shock sounds of Depeche Mode, Massive Attack, Portishead, CSS, La Roux and MGMT. “There’s a lot of stuff that doesn’t sound like Evanescence, but the heart of the band of still there. This is a really, really, rhythmically driven record. So there’s tons of drum-programming fused with live drums; drums we’re renting a day at a time, like Japanese taiko drums.”

Lee is co-writing the album with old friend and new collaborator Will Hunt, a producer, programmer and drummer from Fort Worth, Texas. The pair decided to start writing together after arranging “Sally’s Song,” Amy Lee’s addition to 2008’s Nightmare Revisited album and spent all of 2009 writing together in New York and Texas, crafting a handful of already-recorded electronic programming that will end up on the forthcoming record. “The sounds and influence he brings to the table — programming outer-space awesome sounds you can’t even recognize. I went through a phase where I didn’t know if it was solo time, or go write score music, or what,” says Lee. “And then once we wrote together, I realized this is totally Evanescence.”

The album is also the band’s first with veteran producer Steve Lillywhite, who’s produced for the Rolling Stones, Dave Matthews Band and, most notably, worked on eight U2 albums. Lillywhite, who approached the band, is co-producing the album with Hunt, and has been working with them since day one. “He’s not the kind of producer that would leave during the day and then come back to see what we’re doing,” says Lee of Lillywhite. “He’s part of the team, a big part of the team.”

After much anticipation, Evanescence front woman, Amy Lee confirmed today that Evanescence is in fact going into the studio this week to work on their third studio album with Grammy Award Winning producer Steve Lillywhite. The band’s new album is scheduled for a late Fall 2010 release date.

“I can’t explain how excited I am to make this record,” said Amy Lee. “Over the past year and a half these songs have become the center of my life, and I can’t wait to hear what they grow into in the studio. I think our sound is evolving into something that will surprise people, in a very good way. I feel, as always, that growth can be an incredible, limitless thing if you let it. I never want to make the same album twice.”

Evanescence will be taking over 2010 with their highly anticipated third studio album due for late August/early September release date. Front woman, Amy Lee confirmed that Evanescence will be entering the studio this week to begin work on their third album with Grammy Award Winning producer Steve Lillywhite.

One of the coolest things I ever saw at a Disney event was when Lee took the stage at Nightmare Before X-Mas 3-D at Hollywood’s El Capitan theater two Halloweens ago for an entrancing, engaging and endlessly awesome rendition of “Sally’s Song” from Nightmare Revisited. She’s grown immensely as a vocalist, and this new album promises to be one of the most important rock records of the year.

“I can’t expain how excited I am to make this record,” said Amy Lee. “Over the past year and a half these songs have become the center of my life, and I can’t wait to hear what they grow into in the studio. I think our sound is evolving into something that will surprise people, in a very good way. I feel, as always, that growth can be an incredible, limitless thing if you let it. I never want to make the same album twice.”

The band, famous for hits like “Bring Me to Life”, “My Immortal,” “Going Under” and “Call Me When You’re Sober”, promises to stay true to the core Evanescence sound while integrating additional new sounds to create “another world.” The music’s core, which ranges from whisper- soft to painfully aggressive spans sounds of rock, goth and classical, led by Lee’s passionate vocals.

Evanescence is founder Amy Lee on vocals, piano, keyboards and harp; Terry Balsamo on guitar; Tim McCord on bass; Will Hunt on drums; and new collaborator Will “Science”, who will provide programming and drums, as well as additional production.

Evanescence has sold nearly 20 million records worldwide, more than 8 million in the U.S. alone, and won two Grammys® with their major-label debut Fallen, and a Grammy® nomination with their second album, The Open Door.

Tonight on Crossfire: Is Evanescence really goth? Is Nine Inch Nails truly industrial? Does Lil Wayne have any talent? These arguments could be debated eternally. With no finite resolution.

Personally, I would describe Evanescence as watered-down goth-metal made palatable for mainstream audiences. Evanescence’s music is much easier to digest than typical gothic-rock and goth-metal, which tends to be heavier in both its lyrical content and music, and often has more complex song structures.

I must admit though – until it was overplayed, I was a big fan of the band’s 2003 release Fallen and the other songs recorded during that era. But by the time the follow-up album The Open Door had arrived, I was long worn-out on the band’s songs, sound, and most of all, their goth-wannabe fans.

So when I discovered on the Pulse Music Board I frequent that Evanescence had released a new song, I had mixed feelings. Am I still tired of them? Can they win me back? Do I even care? Well, come,children. Step into my mind. And keep your arms and legs inside the ride until it has come to a complete stop. Read more…
