After a nearly 10 year hiatus and reformation in 2022, Woe, Is Me has announced their signing to SBG Records. “When we made the decision to start making music again, signing to a label wasn’t exactly something we were looking to do,” the band shares. “However, signing with SBG Records feels like the perfect next step for us. They have been extremely welcoming, made us feel comfortable, and excited to be creating music again. They have an amazing team that understands our vision for this band, and we couldn’t be more excited and grateful to be working with them. This… Read more »
On Tuesday, September 17, musicians from across genres came together for one special fundraising live-streamed music event, Musicians For Kamala. The dazzling lineup featured many rock and alternative mainstays including Living Colour, De’Wayne, Devo, and Evanescence. Evanescence lead vocalist Amy Lee shared, “I’m Amy Lee, and I will proudly be voting for Kamala Harris for President Of The United States. There is so much at stake this year from reproductive rights to responsible gun legislation we desperately need, to democracy itself—our right to have a voice in this place. We need an advocate. Someone who will listen to us and… Read more »
Dayseeker releases their haunting cover of Evanescence’s song, “My Immortal.” The track will be on their upcoming acoustic album, Replica, which drops on April 19 via Spinefarm. The music video for the rendition is a homage to how stripped down from their original post-hardcore sound they’re looking to showcase to fans. Standing in a studio with vocalist Rory Rodriguez and guitarist Gino Sgambelluri, they paint a sad picture emphasizing the theme of isolated grief. When the chorus builds up, the emotional tangent Rodriguez rips into is simplistically gripping. It is a rare feat when it comes to reimagining classic works… Read more »
“Bring Me To Life” has officially cracked into the Spotify Billions Club. The iconic track from Evanescence off of their debut album, Fallen, is still a standout for new and seasoned fans 20 years after its initial release. In 2023, the band celebrated their two-decade milestone with a deluxe vinyl and CD reissue. Demos from their popular tracks were included on the re-release, including a 2002 version of “Bring Me To Life.” This version doesn’t include the male vocalist feature from Paul McCoy of 12 Stones, as it does on the radio release and final album single. It’s more industrial… Read more »
Evanescence have thrown things back 20 years with a previously unreleased demo version of their iconic track ‘Bring Me To Life’!
Evanescence delivered an awe-inspiring performance at Germany’s Rock im Park and Rock am Ring festivals this past weekend, leaving no doubt about their ability to captivate a crowd. The seasoned alt-rock nu-metal group brought their performance to life—pun certainly intended—with a sensational 16-song set, which included the likes of “Going Under,” “Call Me When You’re Sober,” “My Immortal,” and plenty more. During their June 3 performance at Rock am Ring, Evanescence pleasantly surprised fans by inviting Jacoby Shaddix, the vocalist of Papa Roach, to join them on stage for the closing number of their set: their 2003 smash hit single,… Read more »
Goth rock titans Evanescence are currently on the road, sweeping through North America and serving as support for Muse on their Will Of The People Tour. The band stopped at New York City’s Madison Square Garden on Friday, March 17th, for a sold-out night of hard rock nostalgia and top-notch vocal prowess, celebrating their 2021 album, The Bitter Truth but also the 20th anniversary of their iconic debut album, Fallen. Fans at MSG knew they were in for a treat. With Evanescence not touring all that frequently, the opportunity to see them in such an iconic arena drew a substantial… Read more »
You cannot miss the opportunity to hear Amy Lee sing “Save me” in chorus with a packed arena.
And then there was one. With the recent departure of drummer Rocky Gray and guitarist John LeCompt, Amy Lee is now the only member of Evanescence left who has been in the band since the release of its smash 2003 breakout album, Fallen. LeCompt was either fired by the band or decided to move on – depending which account you believe – while Gray left of his own accord recently, making them the latest members of the group to fall by the wayside. Original guitarist/ co-founder Ben Moody left in 2003 , and bassist William Boyd quit last June after… Read more »
With the recent trend of films based upon successful Marvel comics, the use of today’s most popular modern rock acts for the comic-flick soundtrack has become almost cliche. The use of catchy yet mildly dramatic rock hits to accompany the depressing emotions often felt by the superheroes has already been played out with both Spiderman soundtracks as well as in movies like The Punisher and Daredevil. As Jennifer Garner returns to the big screen as the heroic Elektra, director Rob Bowman (Reign Of Fire and The X-Files) opted to stick to the original template. Elektra The Album, which is set… Read more »
