Seems a shame that there is still so much angst over the whole Amy/Ben situation. Both are incredibly talented people who deserve a lot of success. The fact that Ben has got together with John and Rocky again, coupled with the issues between Amy and, well, all three of them to different degrees, has seemed to reignite the fued between the various Ev-related fandoms, just as it was starting to go away. Still, the We Are The Fallen stuff sounds pretty damn good so I'll give it a chance, despite still being a massive Amy/Ev fan.
I'm guessing that we are likely to see a new Ev album out sometime in 2010 but all depends on whether Amy is still intent on doing her solo stuff. Either option works for me, to be honest.

Well she said to look forward to new Evanescence material in 2010, so thats what I am going to do. Although its likely to be late 2010.
And I agree, We Are The Fallen are good also ;D

Yeah, can't see anything appearing too soon. The Open Door was released in October, if I remember correctly? I can see the third album appearing around that time next year.
Sooner the better for me. And a B-sides and rarities album would be nice too. Would love to own an official cd that had Understanding on rather than just my own Evanescence Greatest Unreleased Hits cd. Although my unofficial version does rock, if I do say so myself. ;D

I <3 Understanding. The really should bring out an album of their unreleased songs and call it Unreleased. I really want to see another live DVD also.

WOW Some updates for you guys. Amy posted this on the Evanescence website: "Hey everybody! Just checkin in.There's been a lot of writing going on this summer and I'm starting to get really excited. My good friend Will happens to also be a great producer, writer and programmer (lucky for me!) and we've been slaving away at some pretty interesting stuff lately... I'm not giving anything away just yet. Terry and I have been working together this week at my place just like old times and life is pretty good. I have a little surprise for you that I can't spill just yet, but its coming soon and I can't wait. I will let you know as soon as I'm allowed to!Talk to you soon!love,Amyp.s. My favorite music right now: CSS, Depeche Mode (sounds of the universe)('in chains' especially), MGMT, MIA. -Wow. I just realized that's a lot of initials..." evanescence.com/news.aspThere also performing in November at the Maquinaria Festival in Brazil. That leads me to belive that they have the new band members sorted and that may be the surprise.

@midnight Butterfly - Well thats awesome! She says there's been a lot of writing so we can all assume that she might throw a song out for the public to hear. Maybe featuring her harp? Gah, we can only assume!

I think I already mentioned earlier that is was released in 2010 Because she said on her website to look forward to more music next year, so I think wikipedia is correct. I was a fan from the begining to Cant wait and I <3 your avatar.

Better and stronger? I guess that means no more songs about dying over a lost love (not that I mind really)? Maybe she just means a harder beat. Hopefully they keep some semblence of what the band was.

Sorry for the double post but I thought I would post two videos that I love. Evanescence were playing at the 2007 UK Download Festival and some of the people in the crowd wanted heavier bands. And so this was Amy Lees words to the audience about half way through her songs:
After that the audiance thought she was great. The song she was referring to in the above video was 'Your Star' and here it is. As you can see, there is no more trouble from the audience:

Glad you guys like it. Maybe we could all start posting our favourite Evanescence videos to keep the thread alive until more album news is released?

Sorry for double posting but I noticed that Amy let the surprise she was talking about slip. She says in the below post on the EVThread that the surprise will be something new to listen to:
Hey guys, I know you figured it out already but I just wanted to say we are indeed headlining one of the three nights at the festival in Sao Paulo in November! We’ve had a few cool opportunities to play one-offs over the past year or so, and I usually end up saying no because I’ve been so focused on the new material and I don’t want to get sidetracked (organizing an Ev show takes some pretty serious time and preparation). BUT the writing has been going so well lately, and you Brazil fans are some of our best and craziest, we decided to just go for it! We wont be playing new material, its going to be a collection of songs you already know (new stuff will come in due time ). I also wanted you to know that this is not the surprise I was referring to- that is still coming, and it WILL be a little something new to hear. ….. I really love these little smiley guys. And what the hell is this one Ghost? It looks like a ghost that swallowed a hanger. ANYWAY, I’m really excited and a little nervous about the show- I’ve been my anonymous alter-ego for a long time! Mostly I can’t wait to feel that feeling again- completely swallowed by the music. I love you guys and I can’t wait to see you Brazil! We’re gonna have a good time.
love, Amy

hey! i was on their website and i came accross this video.... www.legendsandlyrics.com/videos#(this link only gets you to the video page, so just click on the video called season 2 promo) it's just a promo for season 2 of a show called 'Legends and Lyrics'. towards the middle their is part of an acoustic version of Bring me to Life, and part of an interview with amy, so i thought that was interesting. ;D
