The new album of Dutch Symphonic Metal band Within Temptation is finally released. As we all know by now it`s named Hydra, and so far three successful singles has been released.
The promotion of the album started back in August last year, when they released a duet with Tarja Turunen - Paradise (What About Us). Single included three demo versions of the songs that found their way onto the release - Dog Days, Silver Moonlight and Let Us Burn.
Second single was the powerful song - Dangerous featuring Howard Jones. It`s definitely most powerful and energizing song that this album holds.
Recently they released their third single - Whole World is Watching. What a surprise, it`s another duet. This time with Dave Pirner, for the worldwide release that is. Fans from Poland have the special treat, version of the song featuring Piotr Rogucki.
And now, when the album is finally released, it`s taking over the charts all over the world.
Some may say that this album is too mainstream for Within Temptation, or even too pop-sounding. One may believe these rumors, or just hear the album... This is one of the most diverse releases that WT brought to us recently. It has everything that a great album should have - amazing music, great lyrics, and quite a lot of collaborations with other musicians. Special treat is the song And We Run featuring Xzibit. And of course there is amazingly powerful ballad Edge of The World, that instantly became a favorite of mine.
