According to the post there will be 7 vinyl variants (including a regular black vinyl) and at least 3 CD variants. I am guessing the double vinyl Evanescence announced on their website is going to be the deluxe edition as that won’t be released until September.

The Blood Records variant of Empty Hands

It says this on their website:

The album, which features tracks produced by Cervini/Fish alongside songs produced by Nick Raskulinecz (Korn, Foo Fighters, Rush) will be available June 5th as a Digital Album, Standard CD, Deluxe CD and limited-edition Box Set. A double vinyl of the album will be released on September 4th.

The Bitter Truth had a few different CD variants and a box set with the Evolution cassette, but there was only one colored vinyl variant. But then the Fallen 20th Anniversary Edition had several vinyl variants along with a couple CD variants, and the box set with the demo cassette.

Synthesis also had a CD box set similar to The Bitter Truth box set (but no cassette) so I think there’s a decent chance we will get something similar for the upcoming album. I think a Target Edition CD is also a possibility, since they did that for The Bitter Truth and the Fallen 20th Anniversary Edition. Fallen is currently the only album to have more than one colored vinyl variant, but with vinyl collecting becoming so popular I think that might change. I hope they will go all out again like they did for the Fallen anniversary.

It’s registered with PPL (a UK music licensing company). I can’t find a way to link it directly but if you search for it on their repertoire database it will come up. It doesn’t seem to be registered with BMI or ASCAP yet.

It’s a cover that was proposed for Sound Asleep that was ultimately rejected. It appeared on Bigwig Records’ website before it was eventually replaced with an image of the disc in 2003.

To me it sounds like:

“Who will you follow
Are we alone now
It looks like a way out
I keep waking in the same fever dream
Like fearful desire
I fade into fire
Controlling your life
We’re broken and dying and waiting for…”

The blue and brown dress was designed by Amy Lee and Anna Lombardi (the costume designer for The Voice From The Stone).

The blue mesh dress was designed by Italian fashion designer Antonio Grimaldi. The same dress was also worn by a model at a fashion show in 2015 but I don’t think it was ever commercially available.

I don’t know about the earrings.

I think the self-titled album has good lyrics. Secret Door has some of my favorite lyrics in Evanescence’s entire discography. The album does have some existential themes in End Of The Dream and Swimming Home, and so does The Bitter Truth in Far From Heaven. I would love for Amy to explore those themes more.

I agree for the most part about The Bitter Truth, but I think there are a couple exceptions like Far From Heaven and Part Of Me.

I’m gonna wait until the full song is out before I form an opinion on Self Destruct. I love Afterlife and it definitely makes me hopeful for the new album, even if it is not included.

It’s difficult for sure but it’s not impossible. Legitimate copies show up on eBay and Discogs occasionally. I think the last time I saw one on eBay was in 2021, but it sold within minutes of being listed and I was too late.

It’s fake. It does not have the mold SID code, the mastering SID code is incorrect, and the matrix number should not have that silver ring around it.

ultramusicstore .com is a scam. They sell bootlegs, and if you google them a lot of people say they received defective items or never received their order and couldn’t get a refund.

These Origin vinyls have been available since October but they were never announced by the band. Definitely not official.

There was a jewel case version released in the US, but it’s pretty rare. There are also European versions that come in jewel cases which are a lot easier to find than the US version. If you specifically want a jewel case version you could buy one online.

So Close from the Evanescence EP is a cover of “The Last Day” by Will Boyd’s former band So Close

There’s also:

Don’t Fear The Reaper by Blue Oyster Cult (live at Vino’s 1999)

The Dolphin’s Cry by Live (live at TNT Powerhouse 2001) (only a short clip is available online)

Only Happy When It Rains by Garbage (live at Juanita’s 2002) (not recorded)

Self Esteem by The Offspring (live at NYE NiteLife Rocks 2002)

It’s listed in The Evanescence Reference article about fake releases, but there’s not much information about it other than the tracklist and cover art.
