Within Temptation are set for their new album, Bleed Out to arrive on October 20th. These Dutch symphonic metal giants have recently unveiled their latest single, “Ritual.” According to vocalist Sharon den Adel, the song was inspired by the 1996 classic, From Dusk Till Dawn (directed by Robert Rodriguez, written by Robert Kurtzman & Quentin Tarantino), expressing the track:

“is one of the kinkiest songs the band have ever written and is fully inspired by From Dusk Till Dawn. 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.”
