We’re getting closer to new Evanescence music – finally!

Evanescence singer Amy Lee discussed the set list for the band’s current tour with PK of the ALT 105.1 radio station during this past weekend’s Louder Than Life festival in Louisville, Kentucky, as reported from blabbermouth.net.

We’re in this kind of in-between phase right now because we were touring our last album, ‘The Bitter Truth’, for quite a while and doing a show that had, obviously, songs from all the other albums, but it was centered around that theme and started with that intro and was that thing. And we’re midway through the process of making our next album now. So we just have a handful of shows this year, and it’s that moment where we’re, like, ‘Well, we can’t just like do the old thing anymore,’ and ‘we can’t do the new songs…’ Well, we have two new songs, and we can work them in. But it’s kind of — I don’t know — it’s a weird teenager phase of what we’re doing. It is fun, though. It’s perfect for the festival setup, ’cause if we have — like tonight we have an hour. We can jam-pack an hour full of cool [stuff], like a hit from every album and just make it really fun.

Amy Lee also clarified the statement about the upcoming new album.

I’d say we’re more than halfway. We’re really getting there. [I’m] really excited about it.

Evanescence’s recent hit “Afterlife” from the Netflix series “Devil May Cry” will be on the band’s upcoming album, Lee responded when asked.

I think so. I don’t see why not. We haven’t really gotten into the track list and that yet, but I think we have all the songs that are gonna be on it at least started, so we’re in that moment of finessing and beautifying and writing lyrics and doing the hard stuff where I slam my head up against the wall.
