There are some new songs on Synthesis as well, ' Hi-Lo' is a big track, the verses sounding like an anthemic march through some fairytale land. You'll get chills hearing those opening notes of ' Imaginary' as it comes out of the tense interlude ' Unraveling,' and be blown away by the brilliant recreations of songs like ' Never Go Back' and ' End Of The Dream.' The song slowly builds, becoming more driven and purposeful as it continues. The haunting synths make the verses creepy, while the strings and dynamic percussion make the verses huge and dramatic. The classic ' Bring Me To Life' is just as dark and dramatic as the original version, but the new emphasis on the strings and electronics give it a whole new atmosphere. You'll be able to hear many of your favorite Evanescence tracks for the first time all over again in Synthesis. Evanescence brilliantly reimagine their biggest tracks in Synthesis while introducing some new ones, as well. After Amy Lee has dabbled in her own solo career and the band has grown, they're taking a look back at some of their older tracks and breathing new life into them.

It's been six years since the band released their third record, the self-titled Evanescence which took a slightly more alternative approach to their gothic sound. The symphonic element of Evanescence has always been one of the defining points of their discography.
