From The Evanescence Reference

This is a comprehensive list of fonts that Evanescence has used throughout their career. Some were original fonts that aren't publicly available, however there are always freeware equivalents or close facsimilies.


Evanescence EP:
Packard Antique Regular (by Typographer Mediengestaltung)
-this isn't the actual font, but however is the closest that can be easily found online.


Origin:
Trebuchet MS (by Microsoft Corp.)
-The font used for the album title, song titles, lyrics and liner notes.


Fallen:
Evanescent (by Aeryan)
-The front cover logo and current band logo, as well as the lyric song titles.


Apple Garamond (bitstream inc.)
-Not exactly the font, but freakishly close. Used for the liner notes and back tracklisting. Also used on the Live CD/DVD set Anywhere But Home.


Anywhere But Home:
Anywhere (by Gyakusetsu)
-used as the logo and tracklisting. (this file looks fine when small, but when enlarged is rather jagged. Not reccomended for use as a normal typeface)


Anywhere But Home (by Brittany)
-Same as previous font, a bit more correct when it comes to the alphabet (looks better when enlarged and when used as a normal typeface)


The Open Door Era
The Last Font I'm Wasting On You (by Gyakusetsu)
-Used for the tracklistings on the back and lyrics pages of the album. File also contains an accurate 'e' logo and "the Open door" cover logo.


Times New Roman (The Monotype Corporation)
-Used in the liner notes and acknowledgements sections of the album. (if it isn't The Last Font I'm Wasting On You, it's Times New Roman)


Curly Art Nouveau (House of Lime)
-Used in the promotion of ToD. Contains the curly logo decorations and other fancy curvy characters including the one used in the EvThreads.com logo.


FrankRuehl (The Monotype Corporation)
-Also used in the promotion era of ToD. Used on the radio promo for Call Me When You're Sober and other various logos and such.



Logos throughout the years:


The old Evanescence Logo
-There is no font (as of yet...it is rumored that Gyakusetsu is planning on making one) of the older Ev logo, however on evanescence's old pre-fallen website, there was a photoshop vector hosted that had the logo as seen on the Bring Me To Life daredevil radio promo.


The Fallen Era Evanescence Logo
-The logo we all know and love. Can be easily derived from the 'Evanescent (by Aeryan)' font by typing the characters "EVan+escéncç"


The Anywhere But Home and The Open Door Era logo
-Has an altered 'A' character with an extended right leg. Used only on the ABH cover, but when the The Open Door era came around, it began getting used everywhere from the album cover to tee shirts and stickers.
