text: "Evanescence is currently working on their second album, the title of which isn't yet known. The album has progressed slowly for a number of reasons, but perhaps chiefly because of Amy Lee's desire to allow the creative process to fully take its course and not rush production. Besides that, other distractions have included other band members' side projects, health problems concerning guitarist Terry Balsamo and the controversy revolving around the dismissal of their former manager. Lee stated on EvBoard that Evanescence's new album will be wrapping up in March 2006. It should be on store shelves in late summer, with the tentative release date rumored to be August 22nd. However, recently the wife of Rocky Gray (the band's drummer) has posted news on another fan board, stating that the release will be pushed back to sometime in September, allegedly because "Wind-Up [the band's current record label] wants to make a few changes to the upcoming single."\n\n\nAfter a long period of stasis, the Evanescence website was updated with a short piece of news. The news read "Evanescence is in the studio working on new music. Check back to the site for more info as it becomes available." "
