Weird situation, I wonder if they are still working with Steve Lillywhite? I've heard that Amy recorded an album but wanted to scrap it as it sounds too much like the other stuff....I wish she would let everybody know what's going on, don't understand why she is being so secretive.

Last I heard it was supposed to be inspired by some trip hop bands like Massive Attack and Portishead. Which would be quite the shift for the fan base to adjust to...

Well, she drove away her entire band one by one until they reformed without her, so probably. Not that I care what she's like in person, so long as she makes good music.

For Immediate Release April 4, 2011
EVANESCENCE HEADING INTO THE STUDIO FOR NEW ALBUM
Wind-up Records Scheduling a Fall 2011 Release
New York, NY — Following a three-year sabbatical after the multi-platinum, worldwide success of their
sophomore effort, The Open Door, Evanescence is going into the studio on April 11 to begin recording its
third studio album with producer Nick Raskulinecz, whose recent producing credits include Foo Fighters,
RUSH, Stone Sour, Deftones and Alice in Chains.
With what some call a meteoric rise to the top, Fallen brought the Little Rock, Arkansas band to global
success with more than 17 million records in the hands of fans worldwide, two Top 10 singles, “My
Immortal” and “Bring Me To Life,” two Grammy® Awards in 2003 (Best New Artist and Best Hard Rock
Performance for “Bring Me To Life”).
The Open Door was recorded in Los Angeles at The Record Plant in early 2006 and mixed at the venerable
Ocean Way Studios in March 2006 and marked the return of long-time friend and producer Dave Fortman.
The Open Door was certified double platinum in the United States and has sold more than 5 million copies
worldwide. The album was defined by Amy Lee’s beautiful melodies, profound lyrics, stunning vocals and
poignant piano, merged with Terry Balsamo’s urgent, yet intricate guitar playing and formed a remarkable,
ethereal blend perfectly rooted in the band’s rock and classical sensibilities, including the hit single “Call Me
When You’re Sober.”
According to Evanescence front woman Amy Lee, "We can't wait to show everyone what we've been working
on! We've written more than an album of songs. We’ve been finding ourselves, reinventing our sound,
experimenting with things we've never done before and at the same time embracing the things we love most
about Evanescence. This journey has made us the strongest we’ve ever been as a band, and I am in love with
the music. Nick Rasculinecz is the perfect fit for this record and we are all very excited to get into the studio
together."
Wind-up Records President Edward Vetri comments, “Amy and the band have been hard at work on the new
record. The time off has allowed Amy to expand the creative boundaries of Evanescence. We are very excited
to bring this music to the world.”
Evanescence is Amy Lee (vocals, piano), Terry Balsamo (guitar) Tim McCord (bass) and Will Hunt (drums).

She is certainly trying to burst a blood vessel here in a pic she posted today on her official twitter.
