The guy doing all this news on Ev isn't very good, he's positive, and supportive, but crap with the facts

He called TOD "Open the Door", got the lyrics to My Heart is Broken wrong and said 'Evanescence' is released on Oct 18th! silly man!

Haha, I was thinking exactly the same thing! If you actually listen to the song, you can blatently tell she is NOT singing "I will live 'til the end of time".

Dear me...glad he's positive and all, but really needs to get the facts right first!

Have you heard the 30 second previews for the deluxe tracks? Pretty good! Can't wait for New Way To Bleed!

Oooh I really like the sound of the new ones, Secret Door sounds as awesome as I was expecting after the video Amy posted

I ordered a signed copy from Newbury Comics last night, but I'm going to have to buy another copy anyway because I know it won't arrive in time haha.

They sound great, can't wait to listen to them in full!

Haha I did the same last week, couldn't pass up a signed copy! I'll also be buying another on the actual day of release, I'm not going to wait until that one arrives as it's bound to be a week or so later!

Kerrang gave the album 5 Ks That's the most you can get, and 2 more than Fallen got! (TOD got 4)

Very impressed by the support of Kerrang this year, I have to say! And I agree about it being their best album yet too.

REVIEW: http://t.co/eMVtDUkO

NEXT WEEK PREVIEW: http://t.co/t1kIN8ND (LOL )

Wow what a great review! Love the preview for next week too!

Definitely is their best album yet. On Fallen and TOD I always had a song that I didn't warm to and would always skip...this album however I can listen to them all without skipping. Love every single track!

Just gone on Evanescence's actual twitter page for the first time in ages and have seen they've changed their background to what must be the back of the CD as it has the song names down the side! Here it is:

I've loved the designs this era, I'm so excited for the actual booklet. I hope the Deluxe is a digipak and not a jewel case..

Me too. I love how they've literally taken what the word Evanescence means and created artwork on that. Really excited to see the booklet and all the artwork it contains!

I've read online it'll be a digipak. Fingers crossed!

Evanescence at Rock In Rio last night, arguably the biggest music festival in the world.

Pretty good performance but 'What You Want' goes wrong, Terry was handed the wrong guitar so the key is wrong

Yeah, I heard that the humidity was affecting the equiptment too It's so weird how hard the new songs are to sing, but Amy nails them in comparison to their older stuff haha!

Although I think she does BMTL loads better now, she seems to use the 'acoustic vocals' from Lyrics and Legends (eg. the Oooonly youaaoouuuu'

Makes me SO excited to go see them next month!!!

Other than What You Want, I thought they did a kick ass performance. I was gutted they had to cut Never Go Back before BMTL cause of timing, but oh well.... just little over a month til I can hear it live in all it's glord

I'm glad they're back and it's so great that they're getting such a good response so far.I'm not really listening to their genre right now, but it's great to have them back in the industry Amy is an amazing vocalist too

My Heart Is Broken has officially been announced as the next single.

It will be the first single to be released (2nd overall) to mainstream pop radio and adult contemporary in the US.

Why couldnt they have just done that with What You Want??

I think it was more of a "we're back - here's a mini introduction to the album" sorta single, I can see My Heart is Broken doing quite well. I hope the video is visually stunning, it could do with getting a lot of airplay!
