Amy was interview by a Mexican site before the cancellation of Evanescence's show at Knotfest last week. This translation was made by Google Translate and I corrected some parts as Spanish is somewhat similiar to Portuguese.

The American rock band Evanescence is constantly evolving because their frontwoman Amy Lee says that the group does not only live from past glories

For singer-songwriter Amy Lee, Evanescence not only lives from past glories, because she ensures that the band's music is always constantly evolving, as well as it is a kind of catharsis in her entire life.

That is why pushing herself to release new albums every year does not obsess her. "I am a faithful believer that quality is better than quantity. Although there are several reasons for the breaks we take, the main thing is that the music of the band has to be felt in the heart before being recorded."

"I wait until I feel the inspiration, everything that sprouts inside me is manifested and I know I have to write a song," she said in an interview prior to the cancellation of her show at Knotfest.

The breaks of the band have also been related to the personal life of the "Bring Me To Life" singer, who is a mother and took classes to make music for films.

For the new material, Lee said she was inspired by her motherhood and a loss in her family.

"The next album is going to see the rockier and heavier side the band has. I want to tell deep feelings that have come from dark moments in my life. Last year I lost my brother and it's one of the toughest things that happened to me. I try to turn something horrible into something beautiful. That was the first reason why I had to make music because I lost my sister when I was just a little girl", she recalled.

After the cancellation of her show at the Knot Fest Meets ForceFest this Saturday due to problems with the organization and acts of vandalism, Lee promised that the band will return to Mexico to please their fans.
