Within Temptation is a Dutch symphonic metal band founded in April 1996 by vocalist Sharon den Adel and guitarist Robert Westerholt. They have been classified by critics as gothic metal and symphonic metal, although each album contains other influences outside these genres. Their most prominent and well-known sound is described as symphonic metal, although their earlier material, such as debut album Enter, was mostly gothic metal, with Enter also having a hint of doom metal. In an interview, den Adel said they fell into a symphonic rock genre with various influences. In another interview, den Adel stated that “We consider ourselves more an atmospheric melodic symphonic metal/rock band… In my opinion, we are not a gothic band but we have gothic elements”. —en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Within_Temptation

Within Temptation – Wireless (Visualizer)
Premiered May 19, 2023 #withintemptation #newmusic #rock

‘Wireless’ marks the start of a new era – one in which we keep our DNA alive but build further upon our sound with powerful riffs, contemporary breakdowns, and epic choruses.

This single takes aim at those who, hungry for war and turmoil, manipulate and control the media./

Sharon: “‘Wireless’ is a song about a soldier who goes to war convinced that he is going for a good cause. He’s indoctrinated by government-controlled media and thinks he’s going to be welcomed back as a savior, only to find out he has been used. This has resulted in people seeing him as a brutal conqueror instead, and now he finds himself on the wrong side. His life and the lives of many are deceived and destroyed.

Lyrics:
It’s the ultimate sacrifice.
Like a God, you threw the dice
and then you left us all wireless.

I started to wonder, wonder.
Why is your smile so callous?
I’m here going under, under.
Why is your heart so heartless.
I know, I know.
I’m such a fool.

It’s here, you wear the mark of shame..
It’s here, just like the mark of cain

You never cared for us, just our halo.
With its glorious force to draw more souls in.
You never cared for us, our dreams evaporating.
You left us here without a safety-pin.
You never cared for us, just our halo.
Our Bloody halo.

Try to elevate your demise.
You got everything sanctified.
All is shattered and is wireless.

We’re forced through the gauntlet, gauntlet.
Like mice in a maze, we’re running.
We know we go under, under.
Like moths to the flames we’re falling.
We know, we know, It is cruel.
It’s here, you wear the mark of shame.
It’s here, just like the mark of cain.

You never cared for us, just our halo.
With its glorious force to draw more souls in.
You never cared for us, our dreams evaporating.
You left us here without a safety-pin.
You never cared for us, just our halo.
Our Bloody halo.

It will reach for you.
It will try to turn you over.
The feeling should wake you up.
It will reach for you.
When it all falls apart.
It’s frightening, they’re watching you, just watching you.

You never cared for us, just our halo.
With its glorious force to draw more souls in.
You never cared for us, our dreams evaporating.
You left us here without a safety-pin.
You never cared for us, just our halo.
Our Bloody halo.
