About Evanescence
Although the band's name may suggest a sudden vanishing, the music
of Evanescence is poised for longevity. Fallen, the Wind-up Records
debut of this talented quartet from Little Rock, Arkansas, is an
emotional, ethereal work of undeniable potency guided by the heavenly
vocals of Amy Lee. "We're definitely a rock band," says the
20-year-old Lee. "But the twist is that the band's music is epic,
dramatic, dark rock."
Co-founders Lee and guitarist/songwriter Ben Moody met while in their
early teens. "We were at a youth camp," Moody recalls. "During some
sort of recreational period held in a gymnasium, I heard Amy playing
Meat Loaf's ?I'd Do Anything for Love' at the piano. So I went over to
meet her, and she started singing for me. I was pretty much blown
away, so I suckered her into joining a band with me." Since that day,
the musical relationship has remained dependably loyal. "We have the
same exact vision regarding what we love about music," Moody says.
"When it comes to songwriting, we finish each other's thoughts."
Evanescence first took shape in Little Rock at the end of the ?90s.
Predictably, the band didn't quite fit the mold of most others
lingering around the Midwestern state. "It's typically death metal or
really soft, older-people music there," says Lee. "I don't even know
of any local bands that have female singers."
Influenced by a wide-ranging collection of artists such as Bj?rk,
Danny Elfman and Tori Amos, the band started releasing EPs of its
material. Even without the benefit of live performances, Evanescence
began to establish a reputation.

"A lot of it developed by being elusive," Moody remembers. "The
second song we ever wrote was this seven-minute, ridiculous Goth
anthem called ?Understanding.' And for some reason, the local rock
station decided to play it a lot. We gained this popularity around
town, even though no one knew who we were or where to find us. It was
because we could never afford to play a show -- it was just Amy and I
-- and we couldn't pay any musicians."
Fallen was tracked in Los Angeles with producer Dave Fortman (BOYSETSFIRE,
Superjoint Ritual). The album successfully finds that intangible
balance between lush beauty and primal heaviness. Typical of the
record is the first single, "Bring Me To Life," a piano
ballad-turned-riff-driven barnburner. Highlighted by a guest vocal
from Paul McCoy of 12 Stones, the song is featured prominently in the
Daredevil film and soundtrack.
"'Bring Me To Life' is about discovering something or someone that
awakens a feeling inside them that they've never had before," says
Moody. He continued, "You discover there is a world that is bigger
than just your safe bubble." Also significant is the vibrant anthem
"Tourniquet" and the eerie "Haunted," with its pummeling beats and
jarring melodies (augmented by chamber choir arrangements courtesy of
Lee). Of the latter, Moody asserts, "It's the song that is the most
?us'. That best sums up what we strive to sound like."
Lyrically, Evanescence explores dark, introspective themes of love,
desperation, and despair. But the group insists its fundamental
message is a positive one. "The point of this whole record and band is
to let people know that they're not alone in dealing with bad feelings
or pain or anything that they go through," says Lee, who pens most of
the words. "That's life and that's human. They're not alone, and we're
going through it, too."
Live, Evanescence functions as a quartet with John LeCompt (guitar)
and Rocky Gray (drums) rounding out the line-up. "As a four-piece, we
are able to carry out the intricate harmonies and orchestrations of
the memorable material on Fallen," Moody emphasizes. "We're very
sincere about what we do. There's so much pre-packaged teen angst
these days in music. That's not us. We're not trying to sell an angle,
we're just here writing from our heart."
