FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: EVANESCENCE STEPS THROUGH "THE OPEN DOOR" Los Angeles (April 26, 2006) -- Following the multi-platinum, worldwide success of their major-label debut, Fallen, Evanescence is poised to build upon their respected position in the rock community with their sophomore effort, The Open Door, from Wind-up Records in stores October 3, 2006. With what some call a meteoric rise to the top, Fallen brought
the Little Rock, Arkansas band to global success with 14 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"). Fallen spent
over one hundred weeks on Billboard Magazine's Top 200 chart, was certified
gold or platinum in over 35 countries Worldwide, and supported sold-out
arenas globally. "The making of this record has been really intense, but I've come out feeling purified," shared Lee. "I've grown so much since 'Fallen,' and Terry is the perfect writing partner -- I feel like I've been lifted up to a whole new level of inspiration and possibilities. After all the things we've seen over the past couple of years, beautiful and tragic, in the end I'm really grateful. It has made us create music I could not be more in love with."
