BROOKLYN, New York - last Saturday, on a stage of fortune in a cavernous (and slightly décatie) Brooklyn warehouse, Evanescence took another step down the runway of return: filming of the video for "what you want," the first single of their upcoming self-titled album.

Teaming with Director Meiert opinion - making clips emblematic for the preferences of U2, Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan (to name a few) - the band and an army of pure fans braved temperatures suffocating and has long been in the night. They have filmed a video which, as many of the new Evanescencealbumis biographical, following their their first days of their rise to fame and their break recently concluded. ... And beyond, as singer Amy Lee explained.

"This video is kind of, as the history of the band," she told MTV News. "This club [game] is imitated old shows, we used to play at the beginning - we used to play this club called Vino in Little Rock [Arkansas] - it is kind of like back then, grainy, dirty, sweaty club.". And on the merits, it is also [subject] in New York, where I have been, [and] where [bassist] Tim [McCord] lived in recent years, since we left. And this is kind of words to escape New York... to come back and out in the world. »

As the song, the video for "want" is a departure for Evanescence, avoiding dark fantasy worlds, they have created in previous videos for the good old realism: blood, sweat and tears that not only were taken to the top, but fueled their current comeback, too. That is why, no matter how hot it got, or how does view shot, kept group answering Bell, thrashing and wailing on stage, with Lee lay in the hands stretched their fans, which some had waited 10 hours just to be included in the video. It seems that for almost all the participants, "what you want" is more than another video clip. It is a labor of love.

"It is more a personal video.". We've done a lot in the past that [were] very 'fantasy' and this is sort of the real , "said Lee. "I wanted to do something than personal really felt for a change." Of course, I wear crazy makeup and is not my daily work, but, you know, I want... to connect with fans again. We all do. We lack them. Much of this record is their subject, and that's why they will be here and in it, too. »
