More on Within Temptation

[Yippee38]

From their website:

Great news! We have signed a deal with the US office of Roadrunner Records. This means that our new album, that will be released next year, will also be released in the States. We will also be touring there, which is even better news!

IMHO, it's about damn time!

They should tap After Forever and tour with them so I can see two of the bands I most want to see in the US. Why do I get a feeling I'm going to start hearing about the Evil Darkness Tour a bunch more as they were working on getting them the last go round.

This sounds absolutely splendid! Finally they're over here - better have an atlanta date.

 

[Curufin]

Finally!

Looks like Within Temptations going to get the push Nightwish should have gotten in the US. Congrats!

A Within Temptation US Tour. That's music to my ears.

I should add, I can think of no better "headliner" to close out this festival.

Epica was amazing, but WT would blow the roof off of the joint Center Stage.

Perhaps WT can coincide these alleged US dates with Progpower.

That Nightwish comment got me thinking. And I agree with you a hundred percent. Roadrunner is going to push the hell out of Within Temptation. That WAS their plan with Nightwish in the US and then the whole Tarja thing happened. I mean look, End Of An Era is nowhere in sight to be released domestically in the US as a DVD or CD. Why waste money and effort on a band whose future is uncertain? Roadrunner is a powerful label so expect a lot of new Within Temptation fans coming out of the woodwork soon.

WOO HOO! I love is band! Man I hope Glenn adds Within Temptation! I like the bands that are playing but aren't going gaga like I did two years back with Angra, Circus, or this year with Epica, Pyramaze, Mercenary, etc. Someone told me Simone is trying out for Nightwish. Anyone hear anything about that?

Someone told me Simone is trying out for Nightwish. Anyone hear anything about that?

That is a false rumor and was noted on Epica's website.
