The Heart of Everything

by: Within Temptation

Release Date March 12, 2007
I only recently got into WT after seeing them support Iron Maiden at Twickenham and this was the first album I bought. It is quite simply brilliant. Comparisoms with Evenescence are unwarrented as WT are in a different league. This album is an excellent place to start but the earlier ones are brilliant as well (especially Mother Earth). the music also transcends the generations as all my 3 teenage boys have become WT fans as well has many of their freinds at school. Buy this album if you have any interest in melodic rock - you won't be disappointed.

The Silent Force

by: Within Temptation

Release Date August 29, 2005
This should be an essential addition to anyone's gothic rock collection. While not as "hardcore" as some of Nightwish's songs, I think this album is more accessible to a wider range of people and a great introduction for anyone new to Within Temptation's music (I got this album after buying their latest album, The Heart Of Everything).

Every song is distinctive and none are forgettable; their tunes stay in your head and endlessly repeat themselves and make you want to constantly listen to them. The singer is skillful and in perfect control of her own voice; the music is - for want of a better phrase - plain awesome!

Mother Earth

by: Within Temptation

Release Date September 24, 2007
I first found out about Within Temptation when they joined Road Runner Records and after purchasing The Silent Force i thought id investigate some of the older albums. With the Silent Force it was a little heavier then this album which is ok cause this way it showed that they just kept evolving with the present day music BUT if you want to hear Within Temptation on a mellow-level lower and smoother then their current albums "The Silent Force" + "The Heart Of Everything" then it would be worth checking out how Within Temptation sounded a long time back. My favourite song on here would have to be Mother Earth cause it was soooo smoothing and relaxing for me and to almost here a story about mother nature through a song is a rare thing in music these days ...

Black Symphony [CD + DVD] [Us Import]

by: Within Temptation

Release Date September 23, 2008
Within temptation a full symphony orchestra and choir. How much better can it get? Playing to a full audience, at the Ahoy in Rotterdam. As Within Temptation' style of music defiantely suits, the style of playing, very operatic and melodic.
Sharon Van Ardel, has a fantastic voice, and I think she sounds better live than on a studio recording. The visuals are very good, with some great camera work. Sound is excellent aswell. Great song selection aswell. Great bonus disc's too. Well a worth a venture if you're into this type of music. Even if your not and you like good quality live music, a must buy.

Enter

by: Within Temptation

Release Date February 14, 2005
I have searched for many good symphonic, and gothic metal bands, but have never found one better than Within Temptation.

This being their first and most original album. 'Tis a shame, as some have stated, that WT decided to can the death growls, but they are extremely common among goth metal music. In fact, they don't even need to use them. And the last thing WT is that they are commercialised.

This album has some very unique songs, each with a very different mood and emotion to it. Say, Pearls of Light is a blissful song. And Deep Within on the other hand is aggressive and angry but also calm in it's pulse. I would definitely recommend this!
