It has? O.O And Keith Caputo of Life of Agony is the guest vocalist.
And I heard it already broke into the Top 50 of Active Rock. Within Temptation will do great in the states, they're genuine music, plus, they have a GREAT record label. And they already have a strong fanbase. I should totally make a thread. XD

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that WT will score it big in the US. However, they released a wrong single for first in the US, they are fairly new and this song doesn't scream WT in most parts, they need something that represents their sound. WHYD is going to be a successful single but also just like BMTL for Ev, they will be labeled as some wannabe or copycat band, I'm hoping not but it's likely. This might also lead or start the WT/EV comparison again. WHYD should have been the 2nd or 3rd single. The Howling, Hand of Sorrow, The Cross and possibly The Heart of Everything would be a great lead single for the US.
Yeaaaaaah. if anyone says they sound like Evanescence after the album is released, they're musically deaf. And as much as I love evanescence, Witihn Temptation music is a LOT more complex, heavier, the vocals ae much different, they use guitars in more varied ways than Amy Lee will EVER think of. But dumb people will group them together because they're both gothic bands who have a female singer. >.>
I'm going to keep grouping them together because they sound alike
They don't. At all.
Trust me, i've listened to so much stuff from both bands that it would make a normal mind implode. They have as much in common as peanut butter and skunk.

I've never listened to this band so I decided to listen to a few songs from them now and I completely agree with Ryan. They don't sound that much alike. I thank everyone in this thread who turned me on to this because now I like them.
Witihn Temptation is great. If they get this kind of reaction from the general music listneing population, they should do well. But they need to tour here more. They alreayd have dates lined up for up until early next year and hardly any of them are in the US.
When exactly does 'What Have You Done' go for adds?
And Ev and WT sounds so completely different. I have all 5 of WT's albums and all 4 of Ev's (plus the EPs, demos, and alternate takes)
So completely different XD
I am pretty sure it was a couple of weeks ago. And to say Evanescence and Within Temptation have "completely different" sounds seems a bit odd. They're almost identical to my ears. But to be fair, I'm only basing that on the radio singles because I've never heard either of their albums.
Am I the only one who hasn't heard this Within Temptation song, let alone the band itself?
So far, they seem to be at fault for the Evanescence comparisons. Both feature a female singer, right? Both feature a male singer from some generic hard rock band, right? I'll just wait to hear the single until I make further judgment.
THat's just one song though. And just because they have a female lead singer doesn't mean they sound the same, necessarily. Would you say Evanescence and ***** Cat Dolls sound alike...?
