Amy has been working on it every day for the past couple of months as she said in the BUILD Series interview, so I doubt it's just a live album. But some live recordings could be part of it! Based on her latest tweet I think there is going to be some sort of visual component to it Absolutely! I'm also sure it will either come with many music video, maybe computer animated or even real music video, maybe live performances or videos from the studio. At least that's what I think

to be honest I keep thinking about this new "thing" EVERYDAY since its announcement I think I'm going crazy....I admit I even looked up the possibility of it getting leaked oops but nope. I can't even speculate what it could be at all, I might be exaggerating but I want to cry.

There's no record label staff to "accidentaly" leak stuff

No record label? Sony Music is responsible for Evanescence's stuff and their upcoming album

No record label? Sony Music is responsible for Evanescence's stuff and their upcoming album My understanding is that any record label is purely used as a distributor to mass produce the content, Evanescence itself is independent. Sony Music would have no say in what Ev are to put out or on the final product. It doesn't need the tick of approval from a Sony executive.

Maybe, but I guess they have a look in the stuff before releasing it, so if there might be a leak, it might come from them. But still I think it is not so possible.

Hi first post! Inspired by new music. I totally trust amys judgement in a business sense, and the creativity is just bang on in a musical sense - truely talented in every way. The ONLY comment which me wince a bit was when she said the new project would "raise awareness"... Anyway for what its worth, my thoughts on liklihood of new project; 1) an album/EP of collaborations, possibly with only up n coming bands or singers (raising awareness??). 2) some kind of "world music" album, with the focus on distinct styles and different types of key signature from other cultures 3) possible a full orchestra, like the tori amos night of hunters album 4) a covers album. Would be great but i think its too simple
I think the "choose your own album" thing is a bit gimmicky, and the visual album things been done - im not sure its amys bag really. I think a move away from straight rock is likely, almost certain really?? I think the reworked older material thing is unlikely too as the release of lost whispers kind of covered it, and its bit like swimming in the same pool twice. My moneys on an orchestra.

I bet it will be one new song a month for a year or something like that. Like the RECOVER EP.

I've been thinking about this a lot today and thought that maybe they're making an acoustic album, but not in the traditional sense as in the piano, acoustic guitar, cello etc. I think that maybe they are experimenting with making new sounds and music from everyday objects, like this TWEETI guess it doesn't really have to be acoustic but I think the sounds will work better together as an acoustic recording/performance. Which brings me to the next part. Perhaps this will be a DVD/CD combo release like ABH. How fascinating would it be to see all the work that went on behind the scenes? It reminds me of this TWEET
I also remember Amy mentioning a couple of other things like raising awareness and less is more, some of us immediately thought of charities and things like that, but what if it's trying to inspire other musicians to think outside of the box? To stop limiting ourselves with what we think we should and shouldn't do when it comes to making music. And with less is more, this might mean that instead of using layer upon layer upon layer, they're keeping it simple with less layers, or just experimenting with the song structures so that not everything needs to be heard at once. It's not quite the same thing, but it reminds me of those Jimmy Fallon & The Roots videos where the percussion is made up of classroom items or office supplies.

I noticed that Amy has been taking videos and pictures with her phone a lot this time around. Maybe it will be another live DVD or something. Hopefully it will be announced soon.

I think i know what it is. I cant remember what triggered it but i thought "yep thats what it is". I think its a classical album, layered uo with lyrics and orchestrated to evanescences style. Basically an album like Lacrymosa, like the opening to Alicia Keys' first three albums where does little intro pieces set around classical musical. It hits all the teasers amys mentioned

I don't think that's it, at least not fully. Good idea, but she said it was a new way to see and hear Evanescence.

I dunno, my 50p is on that! Dont get me wrong she could sing a menu n id love it. I just think the intricucy thing, the "oushing ourselves" thing, the raising awareness thing all point to difficult obscure music, and the fact ev5 is apparently to be released the year after would point to covers of some sort where at least the arrangement is already done.
