After having sold 14 million copies of their disc Fallen, and winning two Grammy Awards in 2003 (Best New Artist, Best Rock Performance), Evanescence has returned to a Los Angeles recording studio with the same producer who was responsible for their previous success.
The group’s singer, Amy Lee, confirmed that the album will be available on October 3. On the group’s website, Lee talked about their work in the studio, "The making of this record has been really intense, but I’ve come out feeling purified."
She added, "I’ve grown so much since ‘Fallen,’ and [guitarist] Terry [Balsamo] is the perfect writing partner — I feel like I’ve been lifted up to a whole new level of inspiration and possibilities."
