Evanescence are back with another striking visual from their new album The Bitter Truth. For the “Better Without You” video, the band let their emotions run rampant as they face their biggest threats head-on. The passionate visual isn’t the only exciting thing Evanescence are sharing this week. The band also announced that on May 13, they will be hosting another special livestream concert where they will perform several songs from The Bitter Truth live for the first time.

In particular, vocalist Amy Lee can be seen wandering through a dimly lit labyrinth while powerfully singing the song’s compelling lyrics. Eventually, she lets go of her pent-up feelings and literally breaks down the walls around her with a microphone stand, emerging victorious from the threats surrounding her. However, a shocking twist at the end of the video seemingly reveals that Lee knew what was keeping her captive all along. http://instagram.com/p/CNvKJZLhBDE Following the release of “Better Without You” back in March, Lee offered some insight into the meaning behind the track. For her, the metal-inspired single focuses on growing up and realizing life isn’t a fairytale after all.

And it’s hard to be a grownup, it really is. Because somebody else isn’t in charge, we really have to be able to make our own decisions, find out our own information [and] protect ourselves.” Ultimately, “Better Without You” tackles the choices we make each day and how they impact us in the long run. “People die, we’re all going to,” Lee says in a press release. “There’s no magic castle. So that sounds like a lot of doom and gloom when I say it, but there’s a choice to accept that truth and live in it and embrace it, choose to live, choose to live in a moment and the choice to just give up. And there’s a struggle there, but my choice is most definitely to take that pill.”

Evanescence have shared a music video for their song ‘Better Without You’, taken from their recently-released fifth album ‘The Bitter Truth’.
The clip was directed by filmmaker Eric D. Howell, who also helmed the video for previous single ‘Use My Voice’, also taken from the band’s latest album.
Alongside footage of the band ripping through the song, the intense visuals see bandleader Amy Lee navigating a mazelike hall of mirrors, ultimately smashing through the pillars that surround her while wielding a mic stand.
Watch the music video for ‘Better Without You’ below. It comes with a warning for photosensitive viewers due to heavy use of flashing lights.
‘The Bitter Truth’ arrived late last month after a string of singles like ‘Wasted on You’ and ‘The Game Is Over’.
It marks the first new album of all-new, original material from Evanescence in a decade, following their 2011 self-titled LP. In 2017, the goth rockers released ‘Synthesis’, an album that saw them rework earlier material with orchestral and electronic elements.
