The Heart of Everything

Well, it finally arrived, and I have had chance to listen to it several times to get the feel of it.

The band have made some small musical changes that are refreshing, but it does not vary much from the Gothic metal that served so well on "The Silent Force" album.

I managed to get the last ticket for the Bristol concert for next Tuesday, and that means that WT have sold out across the UK - not a bad achievement for their first full tour here.

The Longest Week

I have finally had some days off from work, my first for 3 weeks, and have spent them editing MySpace and this blog. In the background, I have had Last FM playing, and there have been some really good songs.

However, now I must drag myself out to town to post a parcel and do other errands. I'm waiting for Within Temptation's new album The Heart of Everything to come through the post that I had on pre order as well.

Within Temptation

I first heard WT in about 1997 after a friend loaned me their EP, "The Dance."
After that, it took me a while to track down the album, "Enter," but I found a Japanese version on Amazon. They went quiet for a few years (at least over here) but recently singles, albums and tour DVDs have been released. They are distributed by Gun/Roadrunner so with a bit of luck they will have greater presence here.
