Evanescence have announced their first new album in nine years.
The Bitter Truth is set to be released ‘incrementally’ during this year, its first single Wasted On You is available now. “We were recording this music right up until we couldn’t go into the studio anymore, and finished it remotely through file sharing and phone calls,” Amy Lee reveals.
“We are still writing and have a lot more work to do on this album, but this time we wanted to release the songs individually, as we create, to live more in the moment with our fans and our music.”
“Wasted On You wasn’t the song we were planning to release first, but when the whole world went into indefinite lockdown and everything changed, so did the feeling and meaning of what we wanted to say right now. I didn’t write these lyrics about what we’re all now going through, but somehow that’s exactly what they are.”
