After seeing that this item was reviewable I have jumped at the chance to review one of my favourite music albums. The Open Door represents more than 3 years of waiting for new music from Evanescence's fans but this record is worth all the wait because it is brilliant! The band comprise of lead singer Amy Lee's often haunting vocals, combined with a rock/goth feel from drums, guitar and bass and Amy's expert piano playing. This album is value for money as I can see it on Amazon for £5.97 yet you get 13 songs which is more than most albums seem to manage to deliver. Evanescence mix goth rock with sweet slow and sad piano-vocal songs which really define ... Read the complete review

Evanescence probably don't need an introduction, but for the sake of those who may have just woken from a coma or stumbled into one of those pesky worm holes and have been transported 50 years into the future here is a quick bit of background on them. Evanescence are a Goth rock band formed in 1995 in Little Rock, Arkansas by Amy Lee and Ben Moody, alongside Moody's friends John LeCompt, Rocky Gray and Will Boyd. Their first demo album released was Origin in 2000, and this was a raw, yet beautiful album showcasing their potential talent for music and lyric writing and the absolutely amazing strong and impassioned vocals of Amy Lee.

Evanescence:The Open Door Evanescence a well know heavy metal'gothic' band (Although I wouldn't put the gothic in there') First released their debut album 'Fallen' in 2003 and followed that up with their live DVD 'Anywhere But Home' in 2004. In 2006 with Wind-UP Records they released this album 'The Open Door.' In my oppinion it is a great album, although I do prefer their previous album 'Fallen'. Their tracks 'Lithium' and 'Call Me When You're Sober' both have Music video's which are to a great standard. The Band Members Current Members Amy Lee - lead vocals, piano, keyboards Terry Balsamo - lead guitars ... Read the complete review

After the much talked about departure of Ben Moody, Amy Lee was left to craft and create an Evanescence album more to her personal style which results in a slightly less accessible and less 'radio friendly' record, which still manages to impresses none the less. Although three years isn't that longer gap between albums, The Open Door has seemingly taken a decade to arrive and much of the aura and buzz surrounding the band has died down during this time - which was perhaps a good thing anyway. The album doesn't have the slew of obvious hits the breakthrough Fallen album had and has much more symphonic feel to it with numerous strings and gothic choirs backing ... Read the complete review

The Open Door was Evanescence's 2nd album released in 2009, they have a real punk rock/ gothy sound to them and Amy Lee the lead singer has an amazing voice. This album has a great mix of great songs on it, if you are into similar genres of music or artists you will probably love this album. Also if you like their previous album Fallen you will probably like this album as it is quite similar. You can buy The Open Door in most good music stores for around £10 - £15 though if you look online on amazon you can get it for around £8 which is a great deal, also if you have a spotify account you can listen to it for free on there.
