2015, Essentially a live showcase for their mega-selling breakthrough FALLEN, this CD chronicles Evanescence in peak form during a subsequent tour stop in Paris. The performance here lean early on the crunch of guitarists John Lecompt and Terry Balsamo (reaching a peak on the the band's potent cover of Korn's ,,Thoughtless"), but ultimately revolve around the melodramatic, goth-rooted vocal charisma of singer Amy Lee. It's on stripped-down, yet still larger-than-life takes of ,,Bring Me To Life" and ,,My Immortal", as well as the shadowy grace of ,,Breathe No More", that Lee stakes her claim to the alternative diva throne. Taken as a whole, the forceful renditions here argue that this live recording was hardly premature, instead well documenting the band's more direct musical tack and considerable live chops. The CD contains the appropriately named, previously unreleased studio track ,,Missing".
