Evanescence The Bitter Truth LP

The Bitter Truth is 5th studio album by Evanescence and their first album of new material since 2011's Evanescence.

On the album's raw sounds, Amy Lee says, "One of the things that we've been kind of aiming towards is taking the elements of what maybe are things that make up our sound and try to separate them and give each of them their own space. So some of the songs don't have strings and are fully rocking and heavy. And then some of the songs might be really in the electronic zone, and something might be more on the orchestral side. But overall, it's gonna be a rock record."

...Truth is one of the band's most engaging works, balancing sonic power with Lee's inimitable vocals and songwriting. Amidst world events, personal loss, and global turmoil, the group flips that pain and darkness by focusing on healing, self-growth, and emotional maturation....Altogether, The Bitter Truth carries listeners on a journey both familiar and fresh, recapturing the heavy-yet-melodic hallmarks that made Fallen one of the most successful albums of the 2000s and pushing Evanescence into the future with a graceful maturity and worldly perspective.
