Zeus 7997 Posted January 9, 2011 I tried this band back when a friend gave me a recommendation to try Nightwish and they popped up under the "similar" category. This band never did much for me. I sat through parts of their Mother Earth album but most of it was flat and bland. I never did finish it either - I got bored by track three. I disagree on the point of den Adel being whiny and off-key - to me, she's the best part of this band. If I really had to sum up Within Temptation in a sentence or two, it's as if they take everything about Symphonic Metal and simplify it to the point where I can't really dig it. There's a lot of stuff going on, I'll give them that much, but none of it stands out or builds on one another or anything. It's just...there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Des 289 Posted February 8, 2011 In The Middle of the Night sounds amazing. That preview of 30 seconds sounded better than everything else from the album so far. And the album art is pretty awesome IMO. I don't understand the hate this is getting from fans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Des 289 Posted March 16, 2011 The new album can be found on the internet right now. It's been released by iTunes already, I've been told. Not sure though. Either way, it can be found. I'm pretty damn positive about it. Half of the songs are actually pretty predictable, starting with the first song already (Shot in the Dark), but they still feel like a fresh new wind from Within Temptation. In The Middle of the Night full version is fucking awesome. Listen! This album has renewed my interest in this band. Makes me really want to listen to them again on a regular basis. Also to their older albums. It's just been too long they released a new album. Now it's here, and I'm pleasantly surprised. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peace Heavy mk II 7200 Posted March 29, 2011 Is this album like the one with the blind-folded girl on the cover? Their Mother Earth one was probably the most boring thing I've ever sat through, but I kind of liked their 3rd(?) one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sai 868 Posted March 30, 2011 The new one is with the woman in the belly shirt and the gun. It's called "The Unforgiving". It's a complete new sound compared to their first style, I really recommend it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sai 868 Posted November 6, 2011 Went to their gig yesterday. It was so awesome. They were great with the audience, amazing setlist and the instruments and vocals sounded phenomenal. The guitar had a sound issue at a certain point, but they fixed that rather quickly. Sharon put on a great show as well, walking towards all parts of the audience. Whenever they saw people trying to take photos, they kept standing there a little longer so people could get a good picture. Seriously, if this had been a Kiwamu gig about 200 people would've been attached to the mic stand. This is how it can also work, Kiwamu. Setlist (if I'm accurate): (Opening) Mother Maiden (Short Movie) 1. Shot In The Dark 2. In The Middle Of The Night 3. Faster 4. Fire And Ice 5. Ice Queen 6. The Howling 7. Our Solemn Hour 8. Stand My Ground (SE) Sinéad (Short Movie) 9. Sinéad 10. What Have You Done 11. Iron 12. Angels 13. Lost Encore: 14. See Who I Am 15. Mother Earth Encore 2: 16. Stairway to the Skies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bear 1817 Posted July 2, 2015 Fuuuuuuuuuuuck, that cover album of theirs is bad. Seriously, what the fuck is that? I seriously want to smash the head of each involved member into a wall until there's nothing left but goo on the ground and a bit of blood and brain in my hand. FUCK!
