“Delain” are a Dutch Symphonic metal band formed in 2002 by former “Within Temptation” keyboardist “Martijn Westerholt.” The band’s name comes from the Kingdom of Delain in Stephen King’s novel The Eyes of the Dragon. A major shake-up in 2021 saw all band members, except it’s founder, Westerholt, quit the band. A few months later, Westerholt announced that there would be a new lineup involving former and new members.
Delain’s new line up recently released the band’s 7th studio album, Dark Waters. Their latest single, Queen of Shadow, is new this week on RadiJohan.
