10 Most Exciting Rock Music Albums Still To Come In 2023
7. Within Temptation - TBA
Dutch symphonic metal giants Within Temptation have been tempting fans for the past four years, which is how long it's been since the release of their most recent album, Resist.
That record had come after a five year hiatus, so the band are really pushing their luck when it comes to keeping people in the dark.
It's not like they haven't been busy though, as there have been seven unattached single releases from Within Temptation since 2020. Then, in 2022, lead singer Sharon den Adel confirmed that a new album was on the way!
So... where is it?
Despite the release of two singles this year, no mention has been made of this upcoming release. There's been no date announced, no artwork released, hell, it doesn't even have a name!
Still, den Adel said that something was coming in 2023, and her band clearly aren't afraid of getting into the studio, so all signs are pointing towards a release before the year is out.
Otherwise, this would be a case of a rock band promising an album and then not delivering on it! And when has that ever happened before...
