Fallen is the first full-length album by alternative rock band Evanescence on the Wind-up Records label, and their first album to achieve widespread release around the world. In contrast, their previous demo CD, 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 RIAA in April 2003 (having also gone gold earlier in the same month), double platinum in June 2003, and triple platinum in October 2003. It was certified four times platinum in January 2004, five times in April 2004, and six times in November 2004.[1] Image File history File links Download high-resolution version (868x850, 158 KB) Album cover from Fallen, first commercial release by Evanescence. ...
