Within Temptation The Unforgiving Music
by Within Temptation

Masters of elegance, melodrama and symphonic grandeur: Within Temptation are one of the most charismatic and successful bands of the European metal of the last 10 years. Founded in 1996 by guitarist Robert Westerholt and vocalist Sharon den Adel, the band shot in 2000 with their second album Mother Earth Europe in the spotlight. Since then, their success is steadily growing: More than 2.8 million sold CDs and DVDs published in 48 countries, 30 gold and platinum awards and 4 Dutch Export Awards, and two MTV European Music Awards, two World Music Awards and many more.

"The Unforgiving" gives us both a new sound, as well as a completely new perspective on the unique world of the band: The album The Unforgiving is a stunning tour de force from ultra-modern Hard Rock, gleaming Pop melodies, razor-sharp arrangements, and powerful atmospheres. Skillfully maneuvering the band from the immediate thrill of anthemic Shot In The Dark, the metal In The Middle Of The Night and the hike threat in Faster (first radio single) to epic bombast in Iron, blissful drama in Where Is The Edge and irresistible disco pumps in Sinéad. This is the sound of a terrific band in the shape of their lives, their sounds and their own music collection explores every facet and revels in sustainable fascinating result.

I'm still waiting for the new album "Hydra" in some days...
