Within Temptation Resist

Within Temptation will release their 7th studio album Resist on December 14, It's the bands first release through Spinefarm Records.

Dutch symphonic metal supremos Within Temptation are returning with their seventh album this winter following months of turmoil and uncertainty within the band.

Here's what vocalist Sharon Den Adel has to say about the new album's sound:

“Sometimes it feels that today’s pop music lacks a rebellious edge. Our main goal was to collect pieces from sounds we did like then roughen the whole thing up as much as we could, allowing us to shape a new musical world that is heavier, dirtier and more futuristic than we’ve ever created before. Resist is our new take on metal; our way of giving a fresh lease of life to the rebellious edge of modern music.”

Statement from the band as follows:

"We are super overwhelmed by the great respond to our new music and we want to thank all of you for your endless support!

However, our label is currently experiencing production problems and are forced to postpone the release of RESIST to February 1st, 2019. But don't worry: all the preorders will still be on and delivered to your doormat.

Because we are very sorry about this, we want to give you something back: not only one, but TWO brand new tracks:
