There's nothing like a breakup to focus your muse. This follow-up to the stunning, multi-platinum Fallen was penned as singer Amy Lee's troubled romance with bandmate Ben Moody was spiraling out of control, impelling her to craft an anxious record full of recriminations, revelation, and self-flagellation, as she questioned everything that kept her whole. It's a fascinating journey for the listener as she ventures into her own personal heart of darkness, her stricken, perfect voice suspended on an unsteady precipice between breakdown and breakthrough. Despite the loss of two members, including guitarist Moody who left mid-tour in 2003, the album has a maturity, sophistication, and a singular vision that wasn't found in their earlier work. Stately and as exotic as Led Zeppelin's Physical Graffiti, with its intricate instrumentation, disturbing imagery, and disembodied chorus, The Open Door shows exactly what this band is capable of. "Snow White Queen" is a goth-y alternative to Mariah Carey's "We Belong Together," equally anthemic, but with much more grit and pain. --Jaan Uhelszki

5 out of 5 stars great singer   November 18, 2008
Joanne Toenshoff (GEORGIA)
I heard this voice on a Moonlight episode and feel in love with the sound amy lee made. I searched for the name of the group and singer, then I bought the CD. I dont consider this gothic music, just good quality singing with excellent backround music. I sang professionally for all my life and when I heard this CD I fell in love with this sound so I have purchased other CDs from the same group.


5 out of 5 stars Yet again, absolute amazing   November 13, 2008
Heather (Illinois, USA)
This is another amazing CD by the rock band Evanescence. If you have ever seen the show "The Tudors" on Showtime, their song Lacrymosa was used for previews and promos. There are many great songs on here such as "Snow White Queen" and "Call Me When Your Sober". These songs are a less dark than their previous album but still carry then same tone that I have come to love out of this band. And Amy Lee (the lead singer) still has an amazingly haunting voice. I highly recommend this CD.


5 out of 5 stars Amy Lee   October 22, 2008
K. Durant (Greece)
Amy lee did great on the 2nd album. Her powerful mezzo-soprano voice sent chills down my spine. I hope they release a new album soon!


4 out of 5 stars Better The Second,Third and Fourth Time Around!!!!   September 18, 2008
Joe Warner
The first time i listened to this album i said what the crap is this. Then after a few weeks i decided to try and listen again, now i love this album and can't put it down. This album is practically Amy's diary with guitars and i love it. It is alot different from the first album so you can't really compare the two. I can't wait for the next one!!!!!!


5 out of 5 stars Amazing Album!!   September 15, 2008

This is the best album I have ever listened to. I absolutely love how dramatic, even subtly so, the music can be. Amy Lee has the most beautiful voice, and her harmonies are incredible!
