100 Days of Evanescence!

[arlieimperfection]

Hey everyone, it's Arlie. Some of you probably know me from Twitter, discord, or both. So I am planning a massive event to count down to The Bitter Truth's release. It's our first original album in almost a decade so I thought it was worth a big celebration. I'll be putting details here. Mods, you can pin this if you want.

RULES:

1. Each day will be themed to a specific song, which I have detailed above.

2. Under the #100daysofevanescence hashtag, on Twitter or Instagram, you are welcome to submit drawings, covers (vocal, instrumental, or both), dress up, post lyrics, anything that you think would remind you of the song.

3. Make sure that you label both the song and the specific day, so things do not get mixed up in the searches.

4. I will be retweeting things around the hashtag and trying to boost whatever stands out to me to the band.

5. Don't feel pressured to submit something every day or be exact to the "prompt." This is meant to be fun, and these are just guidelines so things don't get too chaotic.

6. Do have fun! This is a fun activity for everyone, anyone is welcome as long as they are respectful of one another and the band.

Arlie, this is a really nice initiative. I don't have any social media (bar Snapchat and Whatsapp) but I might make a Twitter for this.. I hope to work on my anxiety disorder and make a better this era!

On a separate note, since Amy said she's hoping to drop a 'couple' of 'songs' till release day of the album, I wonder if we should leave a day or two open?

Of course! It was just very hard to edit this in the first place. The original list had all the Synthesis tracks and demos bunched together. Something of this magnitude was hard to do on my own. If you want, you're welcome to adjust things a little. I do want things to be as set in stone as they can be within the next few days, just so there isn't too much confusion.

Great idea. I don't have twitter so won't be able to use the hashtag etc, but I will definitely be saving a copy of the list and following along, it's a great chance to give each song a full days attention, also like how you included a lot of outtakes and demos etc.

It's already too good. My best advice is to give one space for an additional song to replace 'Haunted', but I'm not sure which song would be best to take out. Maybe merge Overture and Never Go Back (Synthesis), or take the Kor cover out since it's the only cover on the list. Or maybe merging Demos when there's 2 of them for the same song (e.g. Tourniquet and Taking over Me). Those are my thoughts but you're the boss!

Edit: Demise I'm also not involved with social media, but I will definitely be lurking and supporting from the shadows!

Just a reminder that this is starting next week! I'll be looking for any submissions here as well.
