Thanks for the reply, Will. I'm very interested in the new album as well. The new singer could be very good, or could be very bad. (I consider anything in between to be very bad.) I've heard of Within Temptation and have listened to a track or two. I'm not as impressed as I am with Nightwish. That said, to be fair, I haven't given the band much of a chance so far. > I like them, I have their albums and a DVD which I enjoy > listening to, but I'm not a massive fan.
