Within Temptation, video of 'Faster': looking for the aesthetic milleriana

Within Temptation see their new work, The unforgiving, as a separation from everything they have created previously, and with four albums already under his belt and a sound as distinctive as his, the prior odds may sound órdago. Even those afraid that may have strayed from the path that has led to one of the groups most recognizable gothic metal and digestible, it seems that what you mean by these words is the concept album.


To compose The unforgiving have had Steven O'Connell, comic book writer who created a parallel to the disc and which has drawn the band at the time of writing songs for the album. One is the first single, 'Faster', which tells a part of history that can reveal when the full disk to see the light on 25 March.

As you will quickly see, Within Temptation have not changed in style or given the slightest, but remain faithful to that sound so easily identifiable - and that reminds me of HIM horrors -. The accompanying video tries to follow the proposal raised at the time of the composition and reminiscent in many moments of Frank Miller's aesthetic, especially in Sin City, although it is in a much more simplistic.

They recorded two versions, the shorter you can see leading the post, and extended it reaches the short score, we can further unravel the history of the characters presented to us. Indeed, they had planned the tour around Europe to promote The unforgiving has had to be delayed at the end of the year due to the third pregnancy of Sharon den Adel, singer.
