| '''''Fallen''''' is [[Evanescence]]'s Major label debut on the [[Wind-up Records]] label, and their first album to achieve widespread release around the world. In contrast, their previous album, ''[[Origin]]'', was only released in limited numbers in their hometown of Little Rock, Arkansas. Released in 2003, ''Fallen'' spent sixty weeks in the United Kingdom album charts, reaching number one. In the United States, however, the album remained on the chart for over 100 weeks, and peaked at number three. In the U.S., the album was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in April 2003 (having also gone gold earlier in the same month).

| ''Fallen'' was the eighth best-selling album in the U.S. in 2004, with about 2.61 million copies sold that year. The album has since gone on to sell 6.5 million copies in the U.S. and over 14 million copies worldwide.

| | |
| Despite being released in 2003, the album was not available for digital download until the summer of 2006, likely to prepare for digital releases of their upcoming album [[The Open Door]].
