Evanescence has been quite busy lately! Just recently, the band celebrated the 20th anniversary of Fallen by announcing a special re-release of the album to Fallen REMASTERED in its entirety, some previously unreleased demos, previously unseen photos and more! The band’s website states the following –
“Thank you for an incredible two decades! To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Fallen, we’ll be releasing remastered versions of the album on 2-LP, 2-CD, digital, and in a Super Deluxe Edition box set. All physical formats will include previously-unseen photos from the era, a handwritten foreword, and a rare selection of B-sides and recordings. The limited edition box set includes a cassette of 10 previously unreleased demos and voice notes, a book featuring new track-by-track notes, a custom turntable slipmat, plus a set of rare photo prints and enamel pin set round out the collection.
All Fallen 20th anniversary items are available for preorder in the link below! The double vinyl, 2-CD, and digital remasters will be available on November 17th, and the deluxe box sets will be out in February ‘24.”
After the global lockdown in 2020 due to the start of the Covid-19 Pandemic, Evanescence started their Bitter Truth World Tour in the Fall of 2021, and since then hasn’t stopped touring. Having been all over the US, Europe, Asia, Australia, and stand alone show in Atlantic City, NJ (SEE MY REVIEW & PHOTOS HERE!), the band finally found themselves back in Central & South America!
Evanescence achieved a remarkable milestone recently when they shattered an attendance record during their headlining performance in São Paulo, Brazil. This event, which was held on October 21st, 2023 marked a historic moment in the band’s career as they played in front of an astonishing 40,000+ enthusiastic fans at the Allianz Parque Stadium. The sheer magnitude of this crowd created an electrifying atmosphere, with deafening cheers and screams reverberating throughout the stadium and even reaching the surrounding area.
This achievement not only showcases the enduring popularity and immense fanbase of Evanescence but also underscores their continued dominance in the music industry. It’s a testament to their unwavering talent, dedication, and ability to consistently captivate audiences worldwide. This record-breaking performance cements their status as not just a top-tier musical act, but also as a rock-solid foundation in the ever-evolving music industry. Evanescence’s ability to draw such a massive crowd and create a memorable experience for their fans speaks to their enduring legacy and the enduring power of their music.
The current lineup of the band has injected a newfound energy and excitement among fans, raising anticipation levels for what’s to come. Fans are eagerly awaiting not just the release of the 20th Anniversary Edition of “Fallen,” a landmark album in Evanescence’s history, but also what the future holds in terms of the band’s creative output.
