However, it was announced via a Facebook message on the band official page that the album would be released on 1 June 2012 with the album's first single, ' Get the Devil Out of Me' being released on 13 April 2012 via CNR Music, who took over Delain from Warner Music. Originally intended for release in early 2012, the album's release date was unknown due to Warner Music's purchase of Roadrunner Records. But on the other hand, it is also kind of a song for "others". On the one hand, being proud of whoever you are, whether you divert from the norm in whatever way you divert from the norm. It was just supposed to be a song about "we are the others" and a feeling of togetherness. It's so incredibly sad! After seeing the movie, I didn't really DO anything with it until we were working on "We Are The Others." But the basic idea of the lyrics was there.
DELAIN A DECADE OF DELAIN LIVE AT PARADISO MOVIE
I remember when I first heard about it … it wasn't on Dutch news, I just heard about it through Internet networks and the goth scene … there was this movie made about it, a short film of about four minutes. In an interview with Sonic Cathedral, Wessels discussed the inspiration she drew from the Sophie Lancaster case: We Are the Others (2011–2013) ĭuring their 2011 live shows, Delain debuted three new songs - "Manson" (later renamed to "Mother Machine"), " Get the Devil Out of Me" and "Milk and Honey" - from their third album, We Are the Others. Timo Somers was announced as his replacement on 17 April 2011. On 4 October 2010, Delain announced they were to part company with guitarist Ewout Pieters. In March, Otto Schimmelpenninck van der Oije was announced as Rob's successor. In February 2010, Delain announced they had started working on their third album, and that bassist Rob van der Loo would leave the band the same year due to time constraints. The band toured extensively in support of the album, visiting many new countries such as the United States and Mexico, as well as performing at high-profile festivals in Europe, including Hellfest, Lowlands, Wacken Open Air and Sonisphere. The lead single was the title track, " April Rain", followed by "Stay Forever". Their second album, April Rain was released on 9 February 2009.
New songs from the album – "Stay Forever" and "Start Swimming" – were added to the band's setlist in early 2008.
Rob van der Loo, Ronald Landa and Sander Zoer were added on bass, guitar and drums respectively to round out the live band.Īt the end of 2007, Delain announced that they were working on their second album. The album spawned three singles: Frozen, See Me In Shadow and The Gathering, and the response to the album allowed Delain to tour in support in the Netherlands and neighbouring countries. Lucidity brought to fruition Westerholt's dream of a musical project, featuring many well-known musicians from the metal community: Marko Hietala from Nightwish and Tarot (bass, vocals), Liv Kristine from Leaves' Eyes (vocals), Ariën van Weesenbeek from ex- God Dethroned, Epica (drums), Ad Sluijter from ex- Epica (guitar), George Oosthoek (growling) and Guus Eikens, both former members of Orphanage, Sharon den Adel from Within Temptation (vocals) and Jan Yrlund from Imperia (guitar).ĭespite many delays, Lucidity was released in September 2006, to generally positive reviews. At the time, the band was envisioned as a musical project featuring a host of guest musicians, and not as a live band. In 2005, he joined with Charlotte Wessels, and was signed to Roadrunner Records. After the demo, Westerholt temporarily left the project behind but continued to write music. In the same year, they independently released the demo Amenity. In 2002, Westerholt formed Delain, after he was forced to leave Within Temptation due to Pfeiffer's disease.
