    Dutch metallers, Within Temptation, have released their brand-new single "Ritual". The song is the focus track of their upcoming 8th studio album Bleed Out.

    Reflecting the tumultuous state of the world, for their newest record the band have drawn inspiration from events such as the murder of Mahsa Amini in Iran and the war in Ukraine. But that isn’t to say that there’s no light to the heavy shade on Bleed Out.

    The delectable "Ritual" as Sharon explains, is one of the kinkiest songs the band have ever written and is fully inspired by From Dusk Till Dawn. An iconic movie by Quentin Tarantino about a seemingly normal road trip, turning into a vampire slayer party. “It’s a fun track about seduction,” she explains. “It’s about the lady taking power in a male dominated world and taking her own initiative.”

    The 7-inch Ritual features both the single version and instrumental version of the track. It is available as a limited edition of 666 individually numbered copies on red coloured vinyl.

    RITUAL (7 INCH) is exclusively available at the Within Temptation Music Store and wil be released on the 10th of November.
