Album Notes & Community Reviews
An ambitious reimagining of their catalog, 'Synthesis' strips away the band's standard rock instrumentation in favor of full orchestral arrangements and complex electronic programming. Featuring sweeping cinematic compositions arranged by David Campbell, the project highlights Amy Lee's classical training and vocal power. The album transforms their heaviest anthems into delicate, neoclassical darkwave and symphonic pieces.
