Within Temptation, the renowned Dutch symphonic metal band, is set to captivate fans with their 8th studio album Bleed Out on October 20, 2023. This record signifies a bold leap forward for the band - from djenty riffs to melodies displaying our symphonic metal roots, with Bleed Out Within Temptation have created a sonic journey that delivers a fusion of diverse musical styles and thought-provoking themes.
Reflecting the tumultuous state of the world, the Dutch metallers have drawn inspiration from events such as the murder of Mahsa Amini in Iran and the war in Ukraine. Sharon: “The war in Ukraine has influenced us a lot. As artists we are inspired by the world, and we have this platform. We are storytellers, and I think as human beings, these are things we should be talking about.”
Bleed Out will be released on October 20th worldwide on multiple formats and across all streaming via Within Temptation’s own label Force Music Recordings in a joint venture with Bertus Distribution.
