Within
Temptation成立于1996年,自从荷兰的美声歌德金属乐团The Gathering，约莫于95、96年开始，在欧洲大放异彩之后，使得这样的美声式柔美金属乐型式，逐渐受到愈来愈多乐迷的喜爱。
The Gathering的音乐风格也对相当多的新生代乐团产生启发和影响，而The Gathering的影响力有多大，从同为荷兰乐团的后生晚辈Within Temptation和After Forever身上就能听得到！ 1996年，吉他手Robert Westerholt离开其原属的乐团The Circle[后来更名为Voyage]，希望另组新团以展开全新的开始，首先他找来他的女友Sharon den Adel担任主唱，接着他又邀请The Circle的前团员加入，于是bass手Jeroen van Veen和吉他手Michiel Papenhove两人决定跳槽来新团，最后，他们再找来一位鼓手Dennis Leeflang，Within Temptation就这样正式成军。不过此时他们仍缺一名keyboard手，很快地这个位置就由Robert的弟弟所补上，WT的阵容也终于抵定。
不久后，他们想方设法联络了不同的唱片机构,WT录制了一卷4曲的demo tape，并寄发给多家唱片公司，希望争取唱片合约，而这张demo也引起多家厂牌的注意，Within Temptation 最后决定与 DSFA Records签约。在与DSFA签约之后,一切进入正轨。专辑列表

Within Temptation┊Memories先介绍最近的一张专辑The Silent Force 个人很喜欢
去年出版的
封面蛮不错的 官方网站:
http://www.within-temptation.com时隔四年 Within Temptation第三张大碟《The Silent
Force》仍然依循着华丽的管弦乐合奏、明亮丰富的乐器层迭包裹、唱诗班的合音歌咏为主导
主音Sharon den
Adel完全不输我非常喜欢的Evanescence主音Amy Lee 非常具有张力的声音
给人神秘、深远、辽阔的感觉 总之是我非常喜欢的一类声线 其实也正是因为当时接触到他们的音乐才让我对歌德金属有了兴趣
更确切的说是对荷兰的乐队非常感兴趣
之后更是进行了一系列的搜索
希望靠自己仅存的一点勤劳意识 把荷兰优秀乐队翻个底朝天

In this world you tried
not leaving me alone behind.
There's no other way.
I prayed to the gods let him stay.
The memories ease the pain inside,
now I know why.
All of my memories keep you near.
In silent moments imagine you here.
All of my memories keep you near.
Your silent whispers, silent tears.
Made me promise I'd try
to find my way back in this life.
I hope there is a way
to give me a sign you're ok.
Reminds me again it's worth it all
so I can go on.
All of my memories keep you near.
In silent moments imagine you here.
All of my memories keep you near.
Your silent whispers, silent tears.
Together in all these memories
I see your smile.
All the memories I hold dear.
Darling, you know I will love you
until the end of time.
All of my memories keep you near.
In silent moments imagine you here.
All of my memories keep you near.
Your silent whispers, silent tears.
All of my memories....[ 此贴被乙醇在2005-08-25 15:07重新编辑 ]
