Album:
I -love- really like this band...in particular the power of Amy Lee to send shivers down my spine.I am a near 40 year old man that would wade in a sea of teeny bopping, gothpop, hot topic grrrls to be in her vocal presence.If anyone out there hasn't heard the pure tone and power of her voice in the acoustic version of "Going Under"- I suggest you check it outfrom www.ulitmateguitar.comThe complete track listing has been announced for Evanescence's new album, "The Open Door", due on October 3 via Wind-Up. When asked to describe the sound of the new disc, singer Amy Lee told Launch it was hard to explain. "It's different than the last album, but it's still Evanescence," she said. "I think the fans are really gonna love it. I'm a fan, I love this band, I wouldn't be doing it if I wouldn't love it, and I love it, so I guess that's sort of my gauge for everything. But it's different, it's kind of fun and sexy, but it's still, like, dark and, like, really epic at times.""I think if people expect this album is going to be softer and more feminine and more wimpy, they're going to be surprised," Lee told JAM! Music. "It's not an album full of 'My Immortal'-like songs. Every song is completely different and I feel like at times it definitely goes heavier than we had the capacity to do before. But in a way that's still new and fun and unique and not trying to be like anything else that's out there."It was also nice to collaborate with a different musician, Lee said, enthusing about founding member Ben Moody's replacement, former COLD guitarist Terry Balsamo."I've never really written with someone before," she told JAM! Music. "I don't know if Ben and I ever wrote a song together. It was always, I would write and he would write and then we would bring our ideas together.""But the writing process with Terry was really, really great and different. We would just sit in a room and make demos. We'd work together and talk to each other and encourage one another. This whole writing together thing is good for me. I needed Terry to make it happen the way it did. I trust him and we trust each other to just try whatever.""The Open Door" track listing follows:01. Sweet Sacrifice02. Call Me When You're Sober03.
