Evanescence Covers Fleetwood Mac’s “The Chain” For Gears 5 Video Game

Fleetwood Mac’s “The Chain” is an all-time classic, and now Evanescence have taken the song in a “dark and epic” direction with a new cover of the ’70s rock tune.

Evanescence’s version of “The Chain” is complemented by a rich orchestra and singer Amy Lee‘s powerful, pleading vocals.

“This cover was so fun to make. We love Fleetwood Mac and wanted to paint a dark and epic picture with our take on ‘The Chain,’” Lee said in a statement. “The lyrics make me feel the power of standing together against great forces trying to pull us apart, perhaps even from the inside. I really wanted to drive that home in our version, and even made everyone in the band sing by the end of it! We’re beyond excited to share this with our fans and I’m really looking forward to playing it live.”

Lee and company recorded “The Chain” for the Gears 5 video game, the newest entry in the Gears of War series.
