The first song from the first new Evanescence album of original music in nine years is cathartic and familiar. There is Amy Lee’s voice, somewhere between ferocious and hymnal. And there is the arrangement, part understated hard rock and part power soul ballad. And there is the rendering of melodramatic subject matter with power and quasi-Christian grace: “I don’t need drugs/I’m already six feet low/wasted on you.” JON CARAMANICA

Juice WRLD, ‘Righteous’

Juice WRLD was 21 when he died in December from an accidental overdose of oxycodone and codeine. In his first posthumous single, he sings about pills and codeine, “Takin’ medicine to fix all of the damage/my anxiety the size of a planet,” over the kind of minor-key guitar picking he also used in his megahit “Lucid Dreams.” (He adds, “We may die this evening.”) Although it may be a studio illusion, the song sounds like it was largely finished; Juice WRLD saw his self-destructive path.
