Two weeks ago on April 10th, Evanescence launched their comeback with "Who Will You Follow," which will feature on their new album Sanctuary this June. It appears as though, to borrow a line from Amy Lee's collaboration with Poppy and Courtney LaPlante "End Of You," they're wide awake for good this time, as the track has landed half a dozen top placements on the Billboard charts.
Among these placements are the Hot Hard Rock Songs and Hot Hard Rock Digital Sales. As an added bonus, their breakout single "Bring Me to Life" is sitting at #4 on the Hard Rock Streaming Songs chart. A report from Forbes further points out that this debut smashes the #4 debut that "Afterlife" had last year, as well as the #9 debut that "Use My Voice," the last single from their 2021 effort The Bitter Truth attained.
In case you haven't heard it yet, check out the lyric video for "Who Will You Follow" below:
