“If You Don’t Mind” got a official release on the compilation album “Lost Whispers” from the Ultimate Collection boxset in 2016. “Hi-Lo” was finally released on 2017’s “Synthesis”. / “Perfect Dream” is missing in this list. This song was originally recorded in the initial sessions for the band’s third, self-titled album in 2010, but it was scrapped by the label.
Thank you so much for this information! Of course we knew about “Hi-Lo” and “If You Don’t Mind,” but we failed to update this page accordingly – whoops! And somehow we missed “Perfect Dream,” so we appreciate your letting us know about it! We’ve updated the page so that the information is up-to-date and accurate. Thanks again for helping keep us up to speed on everything! 🙂
Back in the early 2000s, the band got wind of die hard fans collecting and selling demos at ridiculous prices on sites like eBay, so to stop the madness, they independently released all of their early music. This list included: Evanescence EP (1999) Evanescence EP Outtakes (1999) Sound Asleep EP (1999) Origin LP (2000) and Ultra Rare Trax vols 1-3 (2003). This collection totals 84 tracks and includes demos, multiple versions, and rare songs before their debut Fallen LP.
