Within Temptation release new song ‘The Reckoning’
WITHIN TEMPTATION have released a brand new song!
The new song, titled The Reckoning, is taken from the symphonic metallers’ upcoming new album Resist which is scheduled to be released in December this year.
The new song features a guest appearance from PAPA ROACH‘s Jacoby Shaddix and speaking about the album, frontwoman Sharon den Adel says, “Resist is a true milestone for us. If it wasn’t for Resist, WITHIN TEMPTATION wouldn’t be here anymore. With this record, we’ve taken inspiration from modern music and given it a face – a very dark one. 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.”
