It looks like that claim is not accurate — there’s no credible source or announcement saying that Amy Lee (or Evanescence) has confirmed a new album coming out on August 5, 2025, let alone one featuring “1000 fictional words⁸.” Here’s what we do know from reliable sources:
—
✅ What’s Actually Confirmed
Amy Lee and Evanescence are actively working on new music. She’s described the process as “happily, deeply in the creative process” .
The band released a single called “Afterlife” on March 28, 2025, tied to Netflix’s Devil May Cry series .
According to a June 22, 2025 interview, Lee said the full album will likely arrive in early 2026, not in 2025 .
