EVA UNDER FIRE's music is — quite literally — hard rock therapy. As a licensed therapist and powerhouse vocalist/songwriter, Amanda Lyberg blends emotional insight with powerful songwriting and undeniable hooks, delivering lyrics and performances that connect deeply and hit listeners right in the feels.

The Detroit quintet is thrilled to unleash its new album VILLAINOUS via Better Noise Music today, July 10. It's the follow up to the band's 2022-released debut, Love, Drugs & Misery. Get it here.

Today, the band is premiering the video for "My Own Name," which is quite the battle anthem, at 3pm ET. Watch the livestream here.

"They can call me whatever they want," Lyberg declares. "I fought my battles and emerged victorious, I reclaimed my own name. I no longer give people a chance and I acknowledge this is a screwed up, unfair world. I will always choose myself."

Elsewhere, the title track and first radio single, which features In This Moment's Maria Brink, is Top 10 at radio. Listen to the song here. Watch the video here.

Overall, Villainous feels Eva Under Fire, who've been building their reputation brick by brick, melody by melody, lyric by lyric, and show by show, have truly arrived and staked their claim in the hard rock scene.

The album release is only the beginning.

For all of EVA UNDER FIRE's new music, Amanda drew on her career as a licensed therapist to foster open dialogue among the band members, empowering everyone to be heard during the recording. Her work in therapy started in 2018 when she graduated with a Master of Arts degree in Psychology and went on to work at a mental health clinic in Detroit, Transcendence Behavioral Health (owned by Dr. Stephanie Williams). That same year, her father passed away due to a fentanyl overdose. Her mother survived the same batch that killed her father and has been sober for the past six years. In addition to her thriving and busy music career, Amanda is currently a practicing psychotherapist specializing in trauma work, grief, loss, and addiction recovery.

Her story turned into a 2023 short film, My Rockstar, which used EVA UNDER FIRE music throughout and has won over 20 awards at several film fests including Orlando Film Fest, Wild Rivers Film Festival, Toronto WILDfilm Festival, and many others.

Lauded as one of SiriusXM's 2023 "Ones To Watch," EVA UNDER FIRE released their critically acclaimed debut album, LOVE, DRUGS & MISERY via Better Noise Music in 2022. Its deluxe version includes the Top 20 Active Rock radio-charting single "Unstoppable" featuring country/rock artist Cory Marks. They've toured across the globe with acts including Bush, Bad Wolves, Pop Evil, Skillet, and Finger Eleven, while also appearing at some of rock's biggest festivals including Aftershock, Inkcarceration, and Rock Fest.

EVA UNDER FIRE—who have amassed over 100 million streams and 10 million YouTube views—substantially expanded their fanbase following their featured appearance in the horror-thriller The Retaliators (Better Noise Films) and the inclusion of their single "Blow (Feat. Spencer Charnas of Ice Nine Kills)" on the film's soundtrack. Their single "Heroin(e)" was also featured on the soundtrack for the 2020 film Sno Babies (Better Noise Films), which has over 65M global streams. "Heroin(e)" has a combined total of over six million global streams, while "Blow (Feat. Spencer Charnas of Ice Nine Kills)" has over 41.6M global total streams.
