Within Temptation have announced they have a brand new single on the way.

It’s titled Entertain You and will be officially unveiled on May 8 and is the first material from the band since their 2019 album Resist.

The track was originally planned to be released during their European Worlds Collide tour with Evanescence , but with those dates pushed back until September and October, Within Temptation wanted to go ahead and release it to give fans something before the new run of dates.

Speaking about the track, Within Temptation vocalist Sharon den Adel says: “Both in the music industry and the world around us, we see so many things changing and that inspires us creatively.

“We have always been a band that embraces change and this song shows that more than ever, both musically and lyric-wise. For many of our fans, the song will be a shocker.”

Den Adel says the tour will be a “spectacular event” like nothing fans have ever seen, and adds: “We are known for our live shows with innovative, creative, over-the-top set designs and special effects, but this tour will go beyond everything we have ever done before!”

Last week, Evanescence released their new single Wasted On You and announced the album The Bitter Truth.
