Album updateUpdate from Robert: This time probably the shortest update so far. Not because nothing happened this week, but because there is simply too much to do. On Monday, the 2nd round of drum recordings are starting and therefore the rest of the tracks for the album need to be finished in demo form, as this drum recording will be the final one.However, we still need to finish 2 tracks, so every hour is precious now. Don't think we'll make it for monday, but we can even continue two days during the recordings because we have 5 days studio booked.Now I'm back to getting some energy transformed into sound here. Hope you boys and girls will have a stressless and very enjoyable weekend.Till next week which will be the last update before we go on a short holiday.Saludos !Sharon, Ruud, Stefan, Martijn, Jeroen, Mike and RobertWithin Temptation

Unfortunately, the festival taking place in Barcelona is cancelled, which means we’re not able to perform.The festival in Bilbao is still taking place, so we will play at En Vivo in Bilbao on the 30th of August.Tickets for Barcelona purchased through the night of July 23 will be valid for the festival in Bilbao. The festival will provide free buses from the cancelled cities as well as campsites. Ticket refunds are also available, visit www.envivofestival.com for more information.
We’re back on the road this weekend! We’re coming to Romania and Sweden for ARTmania in Sibiu on the 9th of August and Getaway Rock Festival in Gí¤lve on the 10th of August.Last year, we played at Tuborg GreenFest in Romania and we did a show at MetalTown in Sweden.
Album updateThis week has definitely been the most productive week so far. The goal was to record drums for all the remaining songs of the new album. However three songs were just not finished yet. So while Mike was playing drums and Arno recording him, the rest of the band was working on finishing the last songs, and Daniel our producer assisting from Sweden while being on a long planned holiday.It almost felt like a miracle when we realized we made it. Cause writing songs under so much time pressure and recordings going on at the same very often fails miserable. This time it has really been the opposite. Though I do think it we paid for it with a few years of life energy, but hey everything for a great album. I think this week we wrote and finished three the coolest songs of the album and with that completed the whole album to a level we only could hope for on forehand.Now songs finished, drums finished…now the rest and for the next two weeks its going to be drum-editing and lyric writing, but we'll def do it with huge smiles on our faces.We are going to enjoy the weekend sooooo much though a big part of it will probably be catching up with sleeping.You all have a great one 2 !!!!!!!!!Till next week …
