Within Temptation - Black Symphony (Blu-ray)

Formed in 1996 around the nucleus of guitarist Robert Westerholt and vocalist Sharon den Adel, Within Temptation have build a solid reputation as one of Europe's most successful Gothic Rock acts over the course of 4 albums. By 2005's 'The Silent Force', fuelled by the massive international radio hit Stand My Ground, the band were racking up Top 10 entries in a whole host of countries. A myriad of Gold and Platinum certifications followed.

Having already sold out their biggest UK tour in Nov 2007, the band staged their most ambitious concert to date at Rotterdam's Ahoy Arena in Feb 2008. Dubbed 'Black Symphony', the band performed to 10,000 fans with the 60-piece Metropole Orchestra and a 20-voice classical choir, as well as on-stage performers and stunning pyrotechnic and lighting effects. Special guests on the night included Keith Caputo (Life Of Agony) and Anneke van Giersbergen (The Gathering).

As well as the full "Black Symphony" concert (video and audio), this release includes a dazzling array of additional footage, including promo videos, exclusive documentaries, additional live tracks (from Eindhoven 2007) and band interviews.
