LISTEN HERE /BUY HERE “This album is over three years in the making,” said Amy Lee. “I am so damn proud of every second of it. It’s overwhelming. Working on it has been my outlet for so much that feels wrong and out of control, and a place to ignite hope through the power of music and connection.” Sanctuary includes “Afterlife” — the multi-week #1 rock song featured in Netflix’s breakout animated series Devil May Cry — alongside current single “Who Will You Follow,” which currently sits at #1 on Billboard’s Rock & Alternative Airplay Chart and recently earned the band their first-ever #1 on Billboard’s Hard Rock Song Chart. The official music video, directed by Jensen Noen, emphasises the importance of seeking authenticity in an era where truth feels increasingly and intentionally corrupted — listen here/watch here.
