I like Within Temptation, and I think they're a good band! But I hate the fact that there are lots of people who compare any kind of woman fronted metal bands with Evanescence.

I don't like it either, but it's kind of natural. Evanescence made it big. Evanescence kind of paved the way and brought up awareness of female fronted bands. The comparison's are going to happen.

WT definitely has a sound of it's own. I like it. But they are female fronted, they are "gothic" they are going to be compared to Ev.

Has The Heart of Everything been released in the U.S. yet? I guess I could go look it up myself.

Is it worth buying?

Sweet, I was trying to remember the name of this band cause I liked the album cover of The Silent Force.

Yeah, you're right, I agree.
It hasn't been released yet. It's coming out around July. I downloaded it, and in my opinion it's better and harder than The Silent Force.

Alright, well I'll keep an eye out for it 😄

I really liked the Silent Force, but not so much Mother Earth.

I've heard a couple of songs from the new album, but I didn't really like What Have You Done Now? and that was the single. . .so. . .I just wanted to make sure the rest of the album was better.

The singer of Within Temptation reminds me a bit of Kate Bush.

By looks or musical talents? I mean, if Kate Bush is done up right or vice versa maybe, but never in musical talents.

Though, WT did do a version of "Running Up That Hill."

WT released a new video for "The Howling" because it is being released as a single in the UK. I think it looks abit old fashioned until the everything is set darker.

THE WAVING ARMS ARE BACK!!!!

Hella ^_^

Her hair in the darker scenes rules. That was a pretty good video, for the most part.

Yeah she looks really pretty in the darker settings. I like when their vids have a storyline though. 🙂

I love that little girl! Her face, especially in the dark settings, just looks so inquisitive! I want a little girl like that.

Do you know about how many singles they'll have for THoE?

I would like to see Our Solemn Hour as a single, merely because it seems to be. . .the most. . ."Within Temptationy" on the new album, that I've heard so far.

It's got the sound I've grown to love.

RIGHT ON!

I just bought "The Heart of Everything" CD yesterday, it had just come out yesterday too. In America anway. I'm so happy, because it's the first CD they've ever put in America. woo! And they have an extended version of "What Have You Done" that sounds like the Within Temptation that I love and not the mainstream sound like the singled version.

omg i love them!!!! i love them!!! im gonna buy every cd they have as soon as i find them!!!

I've seen 'em twice (including meeting 'em). I was right at the front (in front of guitarist Ruddi) at their recent London gig, he chucked out one of his plectrums to which I caught and before the encore he literally handed me another.

Yah? I should take a look, I'm sure I can find it somewhere.

Now that it's out, I can't spare the money to get it. Ooooh the irony.

I'll just wait until the end of the month, after the Ev concert is out of the way, and get The Heart of Everything as well as Nightwish's Dark Passion Play ^_^

I like them.

Metal with a female vocalist always gets me

Yeah, I like the sound ... I haven't actually seen any of the video clips, but my girlfriend is a big-time fan, so I've ended up hearing most of their songs ... But I agree with what was said earlier, about them being compared to Evanescence ... No matter whether we like it or not, there are gonna be people out there who will think that any female-fronted goth band sounds like Evanescence ... There's nothing we can do about it ... Which sucks majorly (u_u) ... But oh well, what can you do? Let 'em think what they wanna think ...

Ode to Gothic Rock.

Female fronted rock bands aren't so common, and for that the little group that exists will be placed together.

I don't much mind that, they're a cute little group. The only one I don't like in said group is Nightwish, though they're better, imo, with the new lead singer.

I just don't like their music to be compared. Stuck together, SURE, just don't say: OMG they're exactly the same.

WT is so. . .unique.

Anywho, I can afford the CD now. I'm taking the money I got back from the canceled Ev concert( ;.; ;.; ;.; ) and putting towards 'The Silent Force' 'The Heart of Everything' and 'Dark Passion Play' (MUCH better with Annette)

WHAT? You prefer Annette to Tarja?

Blasphemy

I dunno. . .Tarja was waaaaaay to operatic. I loved the guitar, the general sound, but I just didn't like the carry-on vocals so much.

Annettes got a. . .peppier(?) voice.

Anywho, maybe that's why I'd take 'The Silent Force' over 'Mother Earth' anyday XD
