he 2000 album ‘Mother Earth’ was ‘Within Temptation’s second full-length album and it provided the band the nudge they needed to gain worldwide success, which they are still enjoying to his day. Within Temptation play a brand of female-fronted, keyboard-heavy power metal. There is a great balance of all the instrumentation on this album, including Den Adel's voice, which has a dynamic range from ethereal highs to a more expressive mid-range. The tracks "Mother Earth", "Ice Queen", "Deceiver of Fools" and "Dark Wings" (feat. Arjen Lucassen) combine atmosphere with heaviness and melody perfectly. This Expanded WT Edition release has three bonus tracks: “World Of Make Believe”, “Bittersweet” and “Jane Doe”.
