"Offenses, victimization, and exploitation. That happens every day and is mainly justified under the name of economic necessity, politics, religion, culture, sex, and race," Within Temptation states. Their new single "Entertain You" is out (May 8), and revolves around the urge for self-gratification at the expense of others.
"We often cannot and do not want to see the consequences of our urge to satisfy our personal needs," says singer Sharon den Adel. "To justify or simply avoid the misery we inflict on others, we simply look the other way or start pointing fingers. We should look into the mirror more often and start questioning our own beliefs. We should try to understand not only ourselves, but also — and most importantly — others and the world around us. It's not the easiest way, but it's certainly one that brings us further in this individualistic society."
Within Temptation will embark on a huge arena tour with Evanescence in September 2020. The Worlds Collide Tour, for which an impressive 150,000 tickets were sold across eight countries, will bring both bands to venues such as the O2 Arena in London, AccorHotels Arena in Paris, Velodrom in Berlin, and Palais 12 in Brussels.
