A legendary band is back at it with a new single “Imperfection.” It’s one of the songs in Evanescence’s fourth studio album Synthesis. It’s full of depth with instruments of an orchestra combined with some electronic sounds. The full album will be released on November 10th through BMG. It was produced by Will Hunt and composed by David Campbell.

Synthesis will be a project with some renditions of their best-loved songs ever recorded. The newly released song, “Imperfection” sends a really powerful message about acceptance. Amy Lee describes the meaning behind this new single,

“For me, this is the most important song on the album. I struggled with the lyrics for a long time because there was a lifetime of work to live up to and I wasn’t sure what to say or how to be good enough. When it finally started pouring out of me, it was undeniable. I had no choice. It’s for all the people we’ve lost, all the people who we could lose, to suicide and depression. I’m singing from the perspective of the person left behind, the person in the waiting room. It’s a plea to fight for your life, to stay. Don’t give into the fear- I have to tell myself that every day. Nobody is perfect. We are all imperfect, and it’s precisely those imperfections that make us who we are, and we have to embrace them because there’s so much beauty in those differences. Life is worth fighting for. You are worth fighting for.”

Evanescence includes, lead singer/songwriter and pianist, Ami Lee, Tim McCord on bass, Will Hunt on Drums, Troy McLawhorn on guitar and backup vocals and Jen Majura on lead guitar. About a month before the release of Synthesis, Evanescence is starting their “Synthesis Live” tour in North America. Their first date is on October 14.
